Back Door Chapter 7/8

The tour had been amazing so far; each show was a success.  Kris couldn’t have been happier.  He and Adam were growing closer and Kris knew he was falling deeply for the man.  He often wondered what would become of them after the tour and was glad that it wasn’t ending with the US portion.

They were finally at the last leg of the tour.  They had shows in San Diego, Santa Ana and then ending back in Los Angeles for the final two performances.

Afterwards, they would have two weeks completely off to spend time with family before beginning rehearsal and then flying over to London.

Most of Kris Allen’s band and crew would be flying to their homes the day following the final performance.  Adam hadn’t asked Kris where he was going yet.  He had hoped that Kris would stay with him.  He wanted to introduce his boyfriend to all of his friends.

The busses drove through the southern half of California and finally arrived at their hotel in San Diego.  They had the rest of the day free and the next morning.  Kris had arranged a private dinner that night for the group.  He wanted to be just with Adam, but the troupe deserved a really nice meal in celebration of a successful tour.  Besides, he’d have Adam all to himself soon.  He hadn’t asked him yet, but he wanted to take Adam home with him to meet his family.

~~~~

They had a very nice meal at the hotel.  Kris stood up and spoke to the group, thanking each and every one of them for a successful US stint.  Most of the crew was ending their time with Kris Allen here in California and he told them how much they all meant to him and thanked them for all of their hard work and dedication.  He also addressed the two bands, giving them several ‘ah’ moments, rehashing memories of their performances.

After dinner, the entire group was going out to a club to party.  Adam wanted to stay in with Kris and enjoy some alone time, but Kris thought they should hang out with everyone, since it would be the last time for a while.

Adam reluctantly agreed and went upstairs to change.  “You already look great, Adam”, Kris argued.

“Hey, if we’re going to a club, I’m gonna look fierce.” He smirked.

They arrived at the club in cars and were ushered into the VIP section.  There were several fans that noticed the arrival of the large group and tried to get a better look.  Although everyone recognized Kris Allen immediately, there was small group of cute boys that couldn’t keep their eyes off of Adam.

 “Shit, he’s so hot”

“Sexy bitch”

“God, I’d like to take him home”

“Wonder what he’s like in bed?”

…were just some of the comments overheard.  Kris tried to ignore them.  It was obvious to everyone who they were talking about.  Adam.  He was hot and sexy and ‘all mine’, Kris kept telling himself.  But, Adam looked amazing; he couldn’t blame them for their adulterated thoughts.

However, Adam seemed to like the attention and went over to talk to them.  He signed some autographs and took a few pictures.  One guy even tried to kiss him, but Adam turned his head.  At that moment, he noticed Kris’s face fall.  “Hey thanks, guys”, he said as he walked back to his table.

“Who’s the rock star?” One of the guys said, chuckling.

“What?  Just some fans wanted to say hi”, Adam shrugged.

“You looked pretty comfortable there, Adam.”

“Kris, did that bother you?”

“No, of course not”, he lied.  “Dance with me?”  He asked instead.

 They went onto the dance floor and Kris held tightly to Adam. 

“Baby, they’re just fans.  You should understand that”, Adam said, petting the back of Kris’s hair.

“I know.  It’s just that…”

“What?”

“Any one of those guys would gladly sleep with you.”

Adam giggled.  “Yeah, I’m sure you have a ton of fans that would like to do the same, Kris.  Men and women.”

“It just reminded me that…”

“That what?”  Adam knew where Kris was going with this and he didn’t like it one bit.  “You should stop right there, Kris.”

Kris got the message.  He wasn’t trying to start anything with Adam.  It wasn’t his fault that he was so damn sexy and boys threw themselves at him.   “Just hold me, Adam”, he said instead and put his head on Adam’s shoulder as they slow danced together.

They stayed on the dance floor for several songs, fast and slow.  During a dance tune, a couple of the cute boys from earlier began inching their way closer to Adam and Kris.  Pretty soon, the two were trying to get in between them.  The one started to pull Kris away, while the other got himself up next to Adam and started grinding into him.

Adam didn’t get what was happening, but it looked like Kris was ok with it, so he started dancing with the guy.  What he didn’t realize was that the one with Kris, had him by the arm, pulling him away from the floor.  They weren’t dancing; Kris was being forcefully led away from Adam.

Kris looked back and saw Adam dancing with the asshole and he stormed back to the table looking livid.  “What’s up man?”  Cale asked his friend.

“Nothing”, Kris huffed as he downed his drink and ordered another.

Adam realized quickly that Kris was gone and saw the other guy smirking.  “What are you up to?”  He accused.

“I wanted to get you alone”, he admitted.  Not even trying to look sorry for it.

“What? Not cool, man”, he abruptly left the floor to find Kris and practically ran into the other guy who tried blocking his way until he saw the look on Adam’s face.

Adam found Kris who was feeling a little tipsy after guzzling two vodka martinis.  “Oh, you remembered me?” He said, sarcastically.

“Kris, I am so sorry.  I did not mean for that to happen.”

“Well, you seemed to be enjoying yourself, so…”  Kris said, nonchalantly, but inside he was reeling.

“Kris, look at me.”

Kris looked at him and then looked away and started talking to Cale.  The rest of the group just stared at him and Adam got the feeling that they were all talking about it before he got there.

This wasn’t his fault and he didn’t stay with that guy.  Adam was getting pissed.

He heard one of Kris’s band members mumble, “Always a player” and then, “Well, he dressed the part”.  Kris sort of snorted and downed his drink.   

Adam felt himself boiling and stormed off.  He took a cab back to the hotel.  He walked to his and Kris’s room and looked around at all of their things mingled.  “I can’t stay here.”  What was I thinking?  Of course the band and crew are going to side with him.  Have they always thought this?  Then his thoughts went back to Isaac’s comment and he cringed.  ‘I’m not a player’, he thought out loud and sat on the bed, pulling out his phone.  He texted Tommy: ‘Can I room with you tonight?’

Tommy excused himself from the table, which was getting into a heated discussion.  In fact, ‘Back Door’ was a little uncomfortable with the other’s talking about their lead singer and friend that way.

“Just for the record”, Tommy started.  “Kris could do worse than Adam.”  He walked out of the club and pulled out his phone to answer Adam, ‘Sure buddy.  Ashley can stay with Cam tonight.’

The rest of ‘Back Door’ got up and left the club.  Kris was on this forth drink and feeling no pain.  “What’s their problem?”  He slurred.

~~~~

Getting back to the hotel, Neal charged his way up to Adam’s room and knocked loudly.

“Not now, Kris”, Adam said from the other side.

“It’s me, Neal”, he called out.

Adam opened the door and sat back on the bed.

“Kris is an asshole”, his brother blurted, trying to make Adam feel better.  “And, he’s drunk.”

“I’m staying with Tommy tonight; can you help me get my stuff?”

“Yeah, sure thing.”

There was no more talking, just packing.  Adam and Neal were just leaving when a very drunk Kris came through the door.

“Are you leaving me?”  He was wobbling and talking very deliberately.  ”I knew it.”

“You knew what, Kris?”

“That you’d do this to me one day.”  Kris wasn’t feeling very well.  He stumbled over to the bed and fell over, landing on the floor.

Adam was too pissed to help, so Neal told him to leave.  “Come on buddy”, he said to Kris, helping him up and to the bathroom.

Adam felt the tears welling, and he knew he had to get out of there.  He closed the door and went to Tommy’s room.

~~~~

Tommy opened his door and pulled Adam into a hug.  “Sorry man.  That was so messed up.”

“I didn’t do that on purpose”, he said.

“I know that.  And deep down, so does Kris.”

“They all think I’m a slut and not good enough for Kris.”

“No they don’t, Adam.”

“Yeah, yeah, they do”, he was wiping the tears now falling freely down his face.

“I just think that everyone just needs to calm down and sober up.”

Adam remembered Kris and the shape he was in.  He quickly texted Neal: ‘How is he?’

It took several minutes for Neal to respond.  He had led Kris into the bathroom, just before he puked; fortunately making it to the toilet.  After that, he started crying.  Neal helped him change and get into bed.  He fell asleep almost immediately.

‘He’s fine.  Sleeping it off.’

‘Thanks, bro.’

~~~~

Fortunately, they could all sleep in the next morning, because Kris was hung over and his head was throbbing.  He sat up; rubbing his eyes and then fell back on the bed, remembering the previous night.  What the hell have I done?  He tried calling Adam’s cell, but he’d turned if off.  Then he dialed Tommy’s room.

Tommy answered, knowing that it was probably Kris.  “Yeah?”

“Is Adam there?”

“He’s still sleeping Kris.  We’ll meet you downstairs for breakfast.”

“Oh, ok.”

Kris didn’t want to have their first meeting in public, so he showered and dressed and padded over to Tommy’s room and started to knock on the door as Tommy opened it to go downstairs.  “Kris, I thought I told you we’d meet you down stairs.”  He said sternly.

Kris peeked in the door and saw Adam still in bed.  “He’s not coming with you is he?”

“No”, Tommy said, pushing Kris out and then closing the door to his room.  “Come on, Kris.  He wants to be alone right now.”

The entire way down the elevator and through the lobby, Kris kept apologizing to Tommy, “I was so stupid”, “I didn’t mean it”, “How do I make this up to him?”

Tommy kept quiet until they were just outside of the hotel restaurant.  “I don’t know Kris.  You guys all made Adam feel really bad last night.  I don’t think he wants to face any of you right now.”

That stopped Kris.  And he realized just what a mess he’d made of things.  He needed to address the group first and make it clear that he fucked up, and Adam deserved an apology from all of them.  “You’re right, Tommy.”  Kris walked tall into the restaurant and found the group seated with menus in their hands.  He also noticed that ‘Back Door’ was sitting together and not talking with the rest.

Kris let everyone ordered breakfast first, and then, “Um guys”, Kris began, trying to get their attention.  Then he looked directly at Neal and the band.  “I, no, we”, he pointed to his crew and band, “All owe you, yes you first, an apology.  I was pissed last night at Adam, but I should not have allowed everyone to get involved in that.  It was private business.  I’m sorry.  We made you feel uncomfortable and that was uncalled for.”  There was some shuffling in seats and Kris’s group realized how badly they had all behaved.

“Something happened on the dance floor last night, but it wasn’t Adam’s fault.  I made it seem as if it was, and my band was just defending me.  Thank you guys, but it was only Adam and mine’s business.  I have no excuse for my behavior except that I love him, and I was hurt and jealous and it brought up old feelings for me.”

Kris kept going and everyone understood and felt really badly for the way they treated Adam last night.  Kris didn’t realize that Adam had come down to breakfast and was standing several feet from him listening to the entire apology.  It helped, but he wasn’t ready quite to forgive yet, or sit with them and pretend it didn’t happen, so he fled.

Back Door Chapter 8/8 - Epilogue

That afternoon, the two bands arrived at the venue for sound check in their busses.  Adam kept mostly to himself.  Tommy and Isaac tried to talk to him but he put on his iPod lay on his bunk.

Kris felt terrible.  He wanted to talk to Adam, but he knew that now wasn’t the time.  They had a show to do and needed to be focused.  He couldn’t do that to Adam.

Kris and the band did their sound check first.  ‘Back Door’ came out to hear them rehearse while Adam stayed by himself in the dressing room. 

He’d heard everything that Kris said and now he had to decide what to do about it.  But right now, he thought, I need to stay focused on the show.  He did some of his breathing exercises and drank his tea, and waited for his band mates to return.

Tommy and Isaac came over to him and patted him on the back.  “You alright, Adam?”

“I’m great.  We have a show to do.  That’s all I’m thinking about right now.”  He tried to sound convincing.

“Ok, man”, they let it drop for now.  “Let’s rock and roll.”

They waited for the stage to be set with their equipment and then went out and did their sound check.  This time, it was Kris Allen missing while the rest of his band watched their opening act.  Adam tried not to notice and just wailed his vocals.

They finished and went back stage to get ready for the show.

~~~~

This was a California crowd, so ‘Back Door’ had a lot of local fans in the audience.  Not as many as LA will have, but it was a great crowd; lots of cute boys up front.  Adam really turned it on and played to the audience, slinking around the stage.

Kris could hear the crowd going crazy and smiled.  Adam really knew how to work an audience.  He hoped that he could make Adam listen to him and apologize.  He loved him.  He planned on talking to him tonight after the concert; in their room, hopefully.

‘Back Door’ finished their set and went backstage while the road crew took down their stage and set up for Kris Allen.

Kris was in his dressing room preparing.  Cale was in there making sure that his friend was alright.

“I really fucked up, Cale.”

“It’ll all work out, buddy.  Right now, we have a show to do.”  He patted Kris on the back as they prepared to hit the stage.

~~~~

Adam was waiting for Kris in his dressing room.  He’d heard the final number and knew they’d be going back for one or two encores.  He’d already showered and changed and was waiting to greet fans after the show, but he needed to see Kris first.

He heard the screams and the music stop, and knew that Kris was on his way.  He held his breath.  He had to get this all out before he broke down.

Kris was still breathing heavily and sweating when he got to his dressing room.  He fully expected to be alone, so he was caught off guard when he saw Adam sitting in his chair, turned to face the door.

“Adam”, he said surprised.

“Kris.”

“Adam, I’m so sor…”

Adam put up his hand to stop him and jumped down from the seat, walking over to him and then putting his finger to Kris’s lips.

“Don’t, just don’t.  I have something I need to say to you.”

Kris just nodded, expecting the worst.  Adam was about to break up with him.  He’d done it; he’d pushed Adam away.  He fought back tears as Adam stood there staring at him.

“Please Kris; let me get this all out before you say anything.”

Kris nodded again.  God, Adam was beautiful, even when he was angry.  His eyes fell looking at Adam from head to toe and rested at his groin.

“Kris, up here, baby”, he almost giggled.  Then he got serious.  “I love you.”

Kris’s breath hitched.

Then Adam started to pace.  “Look, before I met you, yeah, I hooked up with guys, not a lot, but yeah I did.”

Kris deadpanned.

“But, since that first night I met you, I haven’t even looked at anyone else.  And don’t say anything about those guys from last night.  They were just fans, and I was just being nice.”

Kris started to speak, but stopped himself.

“What they did wasn‘t cool and I told them that.  I thought you were dancing with the other guy and we’d switch back after a short while.  It wasn’t until I saw you storming off that I realized what had happened and I’m sorry.”

“I know that, Adam”, Kris couldn’t help himself, but Adam glared at him so he stopped himself again.

“But you hurt me; I mean a lot.  I know you were drinking, but you involved the entire group and made them think that I was being a slut and that it was ok to talk about me like that.  I was embarrassed and angry and you shouldn’t have done that.”

“I know”, he started to say.

“But this morning, I heard what you said to the group…”

Kris looked confused; he didn’t know that Adam was there.

“I left before you noticed me.  But I heard everything.  So, before you say anything to me; I want to say to you that I forgive you; even if you don’t forgive me.”

Kris’s mouth opened again, but he snapped it shut.

“I know that it opened old wounds for you, and I would never do that to you, Kris.  I love you.”  Adam had stopped pacing now and was directly in front of him.  He’d also stopped talking, so Kris figured it was his turn.

He looked up at Adam to make sure, and Adam just shrugged as if he didn’t know what should come next.

“There’s nothing for me to forgive, Adam.  Because you didn’t do anything wrong.  I was being stupid and I’m sorry and I love you too”, he blurted.

Then Adam kissed him.  Not gentle, but rough so Kris felt owned.  He melted into Adam and let him dominate him completely.

“Don’t ever do that to me again, Kris”, he said without any heat.

Tommy and Cale found them several minutes later, lip locked, wrapped in each others arms, panting with want.

They just smiled and decided to give leave the two lovebirds alone and the two bands went ahead outside to greet the fans.

They felt the presence of their band mates, but when they separated, no one was there.  “We better get outside.”

~~~~

When they arrived back at their hotel room, Kris realized that he didn’t know what Adam planned to do.  He thought everything was alright, but when Adam got off on Tommy’s floor, he was disheartened.

He decided to shower and straighten up the room and order some wine.  If Adam didn’t come, then he’d just get drunk all by himself and just wallow.

Twenty minutes later, he heard a knock on the door.  Thinking it was room service, he called out, “just leave it right inside”.

Then he heard the door click, and it sounded like someone opening a bottle and pouring two glasses.  That’s weird, he thought to himself.  He came out in just a towel to find Adam, completely naked with two glasses in his hand, smirking.

“Adam, you’re here.”

“Of course, I’m here, baby… Kris”, he corrected himself.

Kris dropped his towel and took one of the glasses.  They just stared at each other while they sipped.  They were both getting hard just looking at each other. 

Adam couldn’t take it anymore and took Kris’s glass, setting them both down and pushed Kris onto the bed.  He bent over him, his legs around Kris's in an almost kneeling position and lay on top of him, his chest and crotch pressed into the smaller man with Kris's legs bent and wide open, so their cocks were touching.

Adam leaned forward and pressed his lips to Kris's, closing his eyes, feeling Kris relax underneath him.  He licked across Kris's lips until he opened his mouth, giving Adam full access.

“Mm, you taste so good, Kris.  I want to taste more of you.”  Adam kissed him again, hot and wet, their tongues intertwined and mouths pressed together.  When they needed air, Adam shimmied down Kris’s body until he reached his cock, hard and leaking.

“I want this”, He gently rubbed Kris’s balls while he licked across the slit of Kris’s cock, tasting the pre-cum.  He swirled his tongue around, lapping all of it and them putting his lips around the tip and sucking it, licking around the edge, making Kris squirm.

“Adam, God.”

“What, baby?”

“Kr… more.”

Adam took pity on him and went down on his cock, letting the tip hit the back of his throat while sucking hard, then he pulled back and deep throated him again.

“So good”, Kris moaned.  “Want”, he said as he handed Adam some lube that came out of no where.

Adam giggled, taking it and pouring some on his fingers.  While he was still blowing him, Adam gently pressed a finger into Kris and hit his prostate on the first try.  Kris jumped and squeaked.  “Adam, stop or I’m gonna come.”  He managed to get out.

Adam popped off his cock and moved his tongue over Kris’s opening, dipping in and teasing his hole.

Then he slipped in two lubed fingers and began stretching Kris, kissing the inside of his hip, biting and then licking the mark.  “Mine”, he said as he inserted a third finger. 

Kris was so hot and ready; he needed Adam to fuck him, like right now.  He began pushing on Adam’s fingers and making the dirtiest sounds.

“So hot for me, Kris.”  Adam pushed his legs up positioning himself right at Kris’s hole.  He slipped on a condom and lubed himself generously and then slowly entered Kris.  “Oh fuck, so tight, ba...  Oh Kris.”

Once he was all the way in, he looked down at Kris whose eyes were blown with need.  He started pushing and Adam knew he was ready.  “I’m gonna move now, Kris”, he whispered.

Kris nodded furiously, “God”, he whimpered.

“Doing great, baby; taking all of my cock in that sweet ass.  Kris, this is amazing.”  They were moving together and Adam was hitting Kris’s special bump with this cock, driving Kris over the edge.  He couldn’t speak, only grunt and moan.

“Ad…  Ad... Fu…  Pl…”

“Ok, baby”, he said as he took Kris’s cock and pumped it, “Come for me, Kris.”

Right on command, Kris’s body tensed and shook, as he shot his load over Adam’s hand as he screamed Adam’s name.

“Beautiful.”

Adam thrust inside of Kris a few more times, “Baby, I’m gonna…”  and he grunted and then came inside of Kris, pumping through his orgasm.

He fell on top of Kris and they lay there together kissing.  “Kris, I’d never hurt you, I promise.”

“Adam?”

“Yeah?”

“You can call me baby anytime you want.”

Adam kissed the top of his head.  “I love you, Kris baby.”

They didn’t even bother cleaning up, but stayed together, kissing and holding each other until they fell asleep.

A couple of hours later, Adam woke up sticky and got a washcloth to clean them both, and then crawled back into bed with his boyfriend. 

They were woken by the hotel wake-up service around nine the next morning and then a call from Cale.  “Everything alright, Kris?”  He asked, knowingly.

“Yeah, everything’s great”, he said smiling at Adam. 

“Well good, because we’re all starving.  Get down here.”

Kris giggled, “Start without us, we’ll be down soon”, he hung up the phone and curled up in Adam’s arms.

“I want to wake up like this every morning.”

“Me too, baby.”

~~~~

After breakfast, they packed up and were back on the bus headed to their second to last destination, Santa Ana.  They stopped for lunch and then right to the theatre.  They had a couple of hours to relax before sound check.  Adam rode with Kris this time.  He didn’t want to be apart from him any longer.  They stayed in Kris’s lair and made out the whole trip.

“Adam”, Kris asked lazily.

Adam was kissing his ear, distracting Kris from what he was trying to say.  “After the tour, um…  I need to go home for a visit”, he said.

Adam’s face fell.  “Oh”, he said, sadly.

“Adam, I want you to come with me”, he clarified.

“You want me to come home with you?”  He began to grin.

“I need you to meet my mama.”

Adam smiled, “Yeah, that would be nice, Kris.  When?”

“Well, I thought the first week we could stay in Los Angeles so you can visit with your family.”

Adam beamed.  He really wanted Kris to meet his friends and family, too.  “I’d like that, Kris.”  Then he thought of his crappy apartment.  “Uh, where did you want to stay?”

“With you, silly.”

“I mean where?  My apartment isn’t exactly nice.”

“I want to see where you live, Adam”, he said seriously.  “But, we have a reservation at the same hotel we staying in before.”

“Oh good”, he giggled.  “My place is kind of a piece of shit.  Oh, and I share it with Tommy.  He’ll be glad to have the place to himself.”

“Great, it’s all settled.”

~~~~

They did their show in Santa Ana and then the busses headed back to Los Angeles for their final two performances.  This was the home town crowd for ‘Back Door’, and they were psyched.  Kris was just a little nervous about Adam’s ‘groupies’, but he knew that he had nothing to worry about.  Adam was his.

They did their last two shows and Kris had a farewell dinner for everyone as they all said their goodbyes to the crew who would not be joining them for the rest of the tour; and bon voyage for the one’s travelling home for a visit before meeting back in LA in two weeks.

The next morning, they packed up their home on wheels and did a last walk though.  It was a little sad, this portion ending, but they had a whole new adventure to begin in a couple of weeks.

Adam and Kris said goodbye to everyone as they left in cars for either their homes or the airport.  Adam promised to call Tommy the next day.  That evening, they were having dinner with Adam’s mom so he could introduce her to his new boyfriend. 

The week would be filled with parties and dinners with friends and family, but there would be plenty of time for Adam and Kris to be alone and really get to know each other.

They couldn’t wait.

The end?

My Adam Day!

March 12th, 2012 will forever live in my mind as the day that I finally got to Meet Adam Fucking Lambert. 

But, it was a hellish two plus weeks getting there.

I recently got a new position with the same company, but completely different department.  So after just two weeks on the new job, we hear that Adam is finally coming to DC to do radio promo on March 12th!

So, of course I ask for the day off.  My new boss is very nice and said, of course.  yay!

Now, I just have to win tickets.

107.3 is giving tickets away every day for two weeks at 9:25, 1:25, 4:25 and 7:25.

So, I listen at my desk and then I'm runing down the hall to call the station.  Keep in mind that my new boss is about two feet away from me, so I can't always run out.  The closest I got was caller 11 when they wanted 12, but most of the time I just got the busy signal.  I'm only listening to the stream, so it's hard to judge.  I have my friend at work helping me during lunch too.  Anyway, so far no luck.

Then we hear the next week that 94.7 is also having a contest, but they won't tell you the time.  So, I start listening to them instead, since I know the times to call for 107.3.   I have even less luck with this one.

Then we hear that 99.5 finally is having a contest with their sister station washfm.  But the call in times are exactly the same as the last two for 107.3.  So, my work friend calls them, and I'm working on 99.5.

Again, no luck.

An in between all of this, my group, the dcglamberts are slowing, one by one winning their own tickets. Each cheery email is giving me hope, but at the same time, a desperation.

It's now Friday, the last day of most of the contests, however, I hear that 94.7 will continue on the weekend and Monday morning.

I call for the 4:25 call, and don't even get through.  My friend Dee kept coaching me all day, telling me to call 94.7 and just talk to the DJ and see if he'll give me tickets.  I'm not really good at grovelling without sounding pathetic, but I decide to get up my nerve and give it a shot.

I hear that the next contest will be at 4:54 pm.  Ok, no good, because I get out of work at 5p, and really can't go running down the hall 5 minutes before to make a phone call.  But, the Gods are smiling at me and about 4:53, my boss gets on her coat and says goodnight.  YAY!  So, right at 4:54, I start calling right in the office.  No one's there, so it's good.  Busy, Busy, Busy.  It's now 5p, so I leave and I'm still calling, finally rings.  Rings and rings and rings and then I get cut off.  Shit!  So I call back and it rings and rings, again cut off.  I'm now outside and the phone rings and OMG, Derik picks up.  I say in a panic, "Am I too late for tickets?"
He asks, "Who do you want to see?"  I scream, "Adam Lambert", like I think he's giving me them,  Then he goes "Well, you;ll have another chance after 5p"  My heart sinks.  So I try schmoozing him like my friend says to.  He's nice, but this is not working.  So I just nicely ask if he'll play BTIKM and then I hang up.  
I am in now at my car and I'm in tears.  I sob half the way home and then I finally settle down because,hey, I'm still driving. And I can't really go home in tears, because my husband does not get this at all.

It's not two minutes later when my phone rings.  It's a number I don't recognize and I don't usually pick those up, but I'm thinking that I should answer this one.

"Hello?"

"Is this Molly?"

"Yes."  My hearts racing just a bit, I still don't know who this is.

"This is Linda, I met you in Richmond at Glamnation two years ago.  Do you remember me?"

I say, "Of course I do."  We'd tweeted back and forth a few times recently.

Then she says, "Well, I want you to know that I just won tickets to see Adam on 107.3 and I'm taking you."

I burst into tears, good tears this time.  I start to tell her about the day I just had and I'm sobbing and thanking her.  We make plans and then I hang up.

OMG, I'm going.  I'm completely in shock.  I get home, trying not to act like I'm so fucking excited I could burst.

~~~~

So, it's the weekend, and my two friends from Philly are coming down to just to try and meet him outside.  We make plans that Linda will pick me up and then we'll meet them in Arlington and take the metro downtown.

All goes well.  We get in line which is already long.  We see our friends and somehow I inch up so I have a pretty good position in line.  107.3 comes out and take our names and hand out these really cool laminated badges.  Then, after a while, a white van pulls up and stops.  OMG, it's his van.

Tommy gets out first and everyone is yelling "Tommy, Tommy.  He looks really good, BTW.   

Then, OMG, Adam gets out of the van and we're yelling Adam Adam.  He smiles and waves and says hello as he walks past us and up the stairs to the Gibson Guitar Center.  He looks amazing!!  Just yum.  

I tried to get a picture, but the only thing I got was the back of his head and part of Tommy.  Oh well, I saw him in the flesh, that beats a picture any day.  And can I just say that there is nothing, I mean nothing like looking at Adam in the flesh.  He's so beautiful, it's unreal.

Eventually they let us go up in groups, I'm in the second group so I have a pretty good spot.  They have these cushioned round couch/seats.

We'll all sitting and waiting, and then Adam comes around the corner and he's being led to the bathroom. Someone yells, "Wrong way,Adam."  it's pretty funny.  My friend took a video here: .  

Then he comes out and we're all shouting and he's waving.  He's such a good sport and so beautiful.  I still can't believe that I'm actually there.  I've had butterflies all day, and they are not going anywhere.

OK, then Tommy comes out to warm up to cheering from the crowd.  And then the girl from107.3 talks for a minute and then she announces Adam and he comes out.  He's got on the jacket from the IIHY video and he looks so good.  Smiling, looks really happy.

He talks for a second and then they do BTIKM.

They had asked us outside to submit questions for Adam.  They choose three, and Adam answers them.  I couldn't tell you one thing he said.  I'm still in shock at this point.

Then they do WWFM and then the meet and greet.  We get in line.  It's two at a time, winner and plus one.  

I've rehearsed what I want to say,but of course that goes completely out the window.  It's our turn and I go up to him and hug him and say something stupid like "I've waited so long to meet you."  IKR?  Then Linda hugs him and then we take our picture. Looking at it now, I look completely terrified. 

  Anyway, I don't want it to end, and I tell him  I love his jacket and I'm petting the back of it.  and he's like "I know I love it, too and we're talking about his jacket.  I quickly hug him again and then as I walk away, the tears start coming.  Wow, it's totally overwhelming the first time.  I literally have tears running down my face.  dork. 

Then he leaves.  And we get lunch.  I can't eat, cause I feel like puking.  He went outside and my friends got a picture autographed and he was gone.

So, his next stop is 99.5 in Rockville.  Most of us don't have tickets for this one.  There were only 24 seats totals.  12 winners.

But, we think that maybe we can see him outside, so we get on the train and head to Maryland.  The butterflies are finally going away and I'm really relaxed, finally.

We get there, they won't let us stay in the lobby of the station, so we go downstairs and wait and watch the facebook chat for a while.

We realize that he's probralby not coming out the front door and we might have a better chance seeing him outside the Hamilton which is where the last performance will be with 94.7.

Ok, almost everyone in my group has tickets to this one, and I'm feeling like I really want to see him again. So, in the lobby of 99.5, I get up my nerve to call 94.7 and I talk to Derik and ask him if they are still giving tickets away to see Adam.  He tells me they are not, but that I could call and try and win $1000.00.  I tell him that I don't want $1000, I want to see Adam Lambert.  He says, "Are you serious" and then "Can you repeat that?"  I figure that's going on the air and of course it did.  Anyway, he's really nice and says he's sorry but no more tickets but tries convincing me that I should still call for the $1000.  I ask him to play BTIKM and I hang up.

So, we get to the Hamilton and sit to have cocktails.  Almost everyone at my table is going exept 2 people.  Someone told me that they had called Derik and he gave them tickets outside of the contest.  I thought they meant today, so I called him again, just to check if they had any left over.  Yeah, not I'm sounding pathetic.  So, I hang up and meet my other friends outside hoping to see his van again.

People with tickets are starting to line up and we're going through the line talking to people we know and don't.  I love Glamberts, they're so friendly.  Most of them anyway.

So, Tommy McFly comes out and greets everyone.  He asks me and my two friends from Philly what we're doing, because we're standing on the other side of the rope.  I tell him that we don't have tickets, but want to try and meet him anyway.  He's like, really, you came out here and don''t have tickets.  I'm thinking, yeah,you want to let us in anyway?

Ok, so then the other DJ's and interns are coming out now, and we're striking up a conversation wtih the interns, because they're they ones who are taking names and such.  They are so nice at that station, all of them.  They don't treat us like we don't belong there and they want to talk to us.  Derik is such a sweetheart, too.

So, now there are 5 of us without tickets and we just keep talking and being nice.  The one guy tells us it's sold out, but you never know, and the girls tell us to stay hear, because if people don't show up, they could let us in.

Ok, that get's our hopes up.  It's after 6 now and they've let everyone inside.  Just a few stragglers coming in now. Tommy and Derik come outside and we talk to them. They say they wish they could let us in, but it's not up to them, blah blah blah.

Anyway, they are talking to the interns and then they go inside.  These two girls are so sweet.  They tell us that about 12 winners have not shown up and as soon as they get word that it's about to start, if they havn't come, we can go in.

It's after 6:30 now, we're trying not to lose hope.  We're standing there, and then the interns walk over to us and take our name.  Next we're getting badges and bracelets and we're going in.

The five of us walk in and everyone is sitting at tables.  We walk in hands in the air flailing and everyone starts cheering for us.

There's an empty seat at the front/center table so I throw my stuff on it and sit down.  OMG, I'm here!  Unbelievable.

Then Tommy McFly comes out, and he is the best DJ I've ever met,  So lively and energetic.  And cute, too.  He comes out and starts talking and then introduces Adam and he and Tommy come on the stage.  We're all cheering.

He sits down and the first thing he says is, "Ok, how many of you is this not the first show today" and he laughs as a lot of us put our hands up.  "Repeat customers", he says.

He's so relaxed and happy and just talks to us.  Then they play BTIKM.

Then Tommy McFly comes back out and starts asking Adam questions.  He's a really great interviewer.  Very fluid.

He asks Adam about DC and did he get to do any sightseeing.  Adam's talking to us, like he's in our living room just having a conversation with us, telling us about seeing the monuement. He's relaxed and laughing.

Tommy asks him his favorite destination on tour, and he tells us about Bali, when Tommy lost his passport.  He's cracking up telling the story and Tommy's talking too.

It was amazing.

Then he does WWFM.

Then it's time for the meet and greet.  Again, everyone is paired up by winner and plus one.  But, I don't have a winner since we came in later.  So, I get to go up to him by myself!  I'm so much more relaxed this time around.  Ya know, meeting AFL is old hat now, lol.

Anyway, I hug him and then I tell him what I'd previously rehearsed.  Just how much I've changed over the last three years because of him, blah, blah.  I won't go into exactly what I said.  But, he's really listening to me, looking right at me an then he talks and it's so intense, those eyes.  God, he's so gorgeous up close.  And tall.

Then I get my picture alone with him!  I look so much better this time: 


Then it's over.  We hang with the DJ's for a while, and then tell Derik that we're going upstairs to the bar and he meets us up there.  Really nice guy.  He tweets this picture of us. That's Donna on the other side of him:



Tommy and the rest join us later, but then I need to leave. 

All I can say is WHAT A FUCKING DAY!!!!

Unbelievable.  I'll never forget it as long as I live.  And my DC and Philly Glambert friends made it that much more great!  What a wonderful bunch of people to share the day with.
