"Is the mic on?"
The camera is turned off, the mic gets low then high until the volume is adjusted right
"We're rolling in 10 seconds!"
The director yells out, The camera turns on revealing a man with spiky black hair, black tinted glasses, he sat back, behind him a pool. He wore a black leather jacket with a dark blue shirt with kenji printed on the front. He chewed gun, the way he chewed it was arrogant.
"You yell out rolling right? when we're shooting or do you just say 1 then I'm suppose to start talking?"
Nick messed with the director, who now sat under the camera so he wasn't shown. Nick smiled, grabbing his drink and sipping it, the ice crack and dance around in the unknown drink. He puts it down and looks at the camera
"Rolling!"
Nick smiled, he sat back and put his right leg on his lap and sat back, The director looked at a thin book of questions
"Alright, So let's do this!"
"Let's"
Nick replied, The director smiled as he looked at Nick, putting the thin book on his lap
"So Broken Teens?"
"Yup, We were The Broken Teens"
Broken Teens
1974
The Teacher writes on a chalk board, she's older, silver hair that followed down her bright orange dress, Nick sat in the back of the class, younger than he was in the present. Black hair was up to his ears, his bangs covered his left eye. Wearing a Black Sabbath t-shirt. Bored out of his mind, he rest his head on his right palm.
"Sex"
The teacher finishes writing on the chalk board, She looks out at the class, the sea of faces in 5 rows of about 30 students
"I was about 17 at the time, High School, Drugs, Sex and Pong were all the kids were thinking about. Music was not apart of my normal life. I was raised by my parents who split when i was 13, i think my dad was homo or something, mom couldn't handle it so they split. It was cool though, twice the presents, twice the money but no love. Neither really cared about me, They knew what i was going to become...Like my brother Max, You see Max was apart of a band called Sweet Silence. They kicked ass from what i remember, heavy metal with some punk. It was pretty cool
Nick sits back in his chair and crosses his arms against his chest, The teacher looks at him
"Nick, How does an erection come to be?"
Nick ignores the stiff chuckles that are low, He stares at the teacher with a dull look, the teacher is smiling
"Tell you what how about you tell me?"
The teacher smiles a clueless smile
"Kids, It's important to understand that sex is a beautiful thing. The joining of two people who love each other. It's romantic, It's beautiful"
"It's dirty"
Nick replies, not for laughs but just to say, he stared at his desk, craved words and pictures across it. Kids laugh, The teacher chuckles
"Sometimes"
The teacher replies, all the kids get silent the very second, disgust fills the classroom
"Alright, An erection..."
I hated school, saw no point it in but i knew if i dropped out then I'd follow the same path as Max. First he dropped out then started getting into trouble with the law.
Nick walks down the hall with his backpack on his back, Behind him another kid is seen running toward him, carrying books, papers and his backpack
"NICK! NICK! NICK!"
I had only one friend in school, That was Liam Peterson. The only person i trusted, the only person who trusted me. Liam was a cool dude, he was also was a smart mouth that got his ass kicked cause of it
Nick doesn't stop walking, Liam catches up with him.Short black hair, black and grey striped shirt that made him look like Nick's brother. Nick doesn't look at Liam
"I was calling you, didn't you hear me?"
"Huh?"
"I said i was calling you, you didn't hear me?"
Nick and Liam exit the school where kids get picked up from by their parents, Liam and Nick just walk home
"Totally saw her nipple when she sat down, It was awesome"
Liam says when Nick stops walking, Liam looks at him
"You know what Liam? I want to get drunk"
"I know, you told me that yesterday. I heard someone named Cradleman will buy beer for anyone who has money"
"Cradle..who?"
"Oh some kid who's dad works at some store on Greenburg street, Jonathan something, i forget his name"
"Oh tall, brown hair...resembles a young Jim Morrison"
Liam thinks about it then smiles
"Yeah, He does look like Jim Morrison doesn't he?"
"Half the kids in school, have either gotten laid or drunk and what are we doing? We're kids, we're suppose to be doing stupid things instead of doing homework about safe sex"
Liam shrugs
"I'm in, if your in"
Nick smiles
"Let's find Jonathan"
-Present-
Liam, hair is short still and black, He wears a checker blue and black sleeve shirt with tight jeans, sitting in a studio where a mic was in the background and a panel of buttons of switches
"Nick was like a brother to me, I mean i never really had a family. Mom and Dad loved my education more than me. I had a sister but she moved away when i was 5. I met Nick when some kids were trying to take my lunch in elementary and Nick kicked one in the balls. Best moment in my life"
-1974-
I remember Nick and I found Jonathan at Power High Record Studios. It was this super small place, 'Looking For The Next Elvis' they studio wanted that next hit, little did they know...Elvis was dead and a new generation was coming
It's about 8 at night, Nick and Liam now in changed clothes. Liam wore a white shirt with a tie over it that was loose with tight jeans, Nick wore a black shirt with a leather jacket over it, they walk into the studio and see a group of people in the studio with a glowing red sign that reads 'In Session'. The manager looked at them and nods
"Who you looking for?"
"Cradleman"
The man had a clueless expression, Nick leans in
"Jonathan"
The man nods, he points at the band that were recording their CD. Nick and Liam looked over, They stared at the brown hair kid with hair that ended at his shoulders, tall with a white shirt that reads 'Fought The Law' with a red checkered vest over it. He plays the guitar like they've never heard before. The sound was beautiful
"Jonathan Rodriguez is a god when it comes to guitars, It's rare you find someone like him"
The man spoke but Nick and Liam didn't care, they were in daze from the music coming from the guitar. the song ended on a low note, a soft ending to a loud song. The glowing red sign turned dark and the band exited the studio. Jonathan reached into his pocket and took a cigarette out and lit it up
"Nick, Liam"
Jonathan quickly said with the lit cigarette out, he puts the pack in his pocket
"You know us?"
"Friends of mine told me you guys were coming, beers in the fridge...you guys owe me 50 bucks"
Liam reaches into his pocket, Nick does the same. Liam hands Jonathan 30 bucks, Nick hands over 20. Jonathan just pockets it without checking
I never heard music like that, Nick and I were stunned. We were just...drugged on that sound that Jonathan created. He was so young and so talented, i was jealous
It was different, Liam knew about music more than i did but when i heard Jonathan making love to that guitar it was beautiful. It was like watching history in the making
Liam walks off to go get the beer, The band talks to the manger while Jonathan elbows Nick gently
"Follow me"
Nick and Jonathan walk outside, Jonathan offers Nick a cigarette but Nick refuses.
"Smoke, It relaxes you...You look like you could use alittle less stress"
Nick takes the offered smoke, he stares at it and puts it in his mouth and sucks in, the smoke quickly fill his lungs causing him to explode in coughing, Jonathan takes the cigarette back, laughing.
"I hope I'm not corrupting you, school boy"
"School...boy?...We go...to the same...school"
Jonathan shrugs, Liam walks out
"So what are two guys gonna do with two packs of beer? That's a lot"
Nick catches his breath
"We're gonna get drunk in hopes of getting laid"
Liam comes right out and says, Jonathan bursts into laughs, Nick sighs
"We're just getting drunk, sex isn't apart of it"
"You kids are crazy"
"Kids?, Your one year older than me"
"Yeah I'm 18 which means I'm an adult and i do what i want"
Nick is quiet
"Well enjoy those beers, I'll...see ya at school sometime"
Jonathan flicks the cigarette into the street, Liam looks at Nick
"Let's invite him to drink with us"
Nick shakes his head in disagreement
"He's cocky, arrogant and i don't like him"
"Come on, He'll hook us up with some chicks, Nick...You want to be a virgin for the rest of your life?"
"What's with you and wanting to get busy with a chick?"
"Hey...I'm 17 and i have needs. So I'm gonna ask Jonathan and we're..."
"I'm in"
Jonathan stood behind Liam, startling him
"Gentleman, Let's party"
-Present-
Nick takes a sip from his drink
"I started to really become like my brother that day"
He puts his drink down and looks down at his hands
"My brother started the band after he got out of the hospital for the first time he used drugs. Sweet Silence is the state your in when you done a good amount of heroine. Life is quiet, silent...Max died 5 years after he started Sweet Silence. He overdosed on some pills and was found in his apartment with a suicide note. It wasn't to our mom or dad but it was to me. It was given to me when i turned 18 in 1975. Max once told me...Life's not about sadness and stress, those are just apart of it"
Nick takes his glasses and wipes his eyes
"Sorry, I never really talk about my brother. So...Uh, What was the question again?"
"Jason and Zane...Where did you meet them?"
Nick smiles
"Well that's a funny story"
The camera is turned off, the mic gets low then high until the volume is adjusted right
"We're rolling in 10 seconds!"
The director yells out, The camera turns on revealing a man with spiky black hair, black tinted glasses, he sat back, behind him a pool. He wore a black leather jacket with a dark blue shirt with kenji printed on the front. He chewed gun, the way he chewed it was arrogant.
