Rayne did her best to contain her excitement, not wanting to make a fool of herself in front of these people. This was a once in a lifetime opportunity and she would be damned if she screwed this up. The person leading her guided her to the band and introductions were done for most of everyone, though Mark was no where in sight. The bass player seemed to take a liking to her and chatted with her about various things but her mind was on Mark. Where was he? As if sensing her thoughts, the man in question came out and Kyle seized the chance to try and introduce her. "Hey, man. This is Rayne Withers, the winner of the promotion contest we did." Mark hardly paused, not seeming to pay attention, but still giving a hi before he was off again, apparently set on something. Rayne watched him go with disappointment in her eyes. Was that it? He hadn't even really looked at her. The 'hi' had been practically automatic and half assed and she was severely disappointed.<br/><br/>Seeing the disappointment on her face, Kyle frowned as he glanced in the direction of the retreating lead singer. He shook his head and placed a hand on her shoulder, getting her attention. "Hey, don't be disheartened. Things are a bit chaotic around here. I'm sure he had some stuff on his mind. How about I take you to dinner after the show to make up for his behavior? Would that be okay?" Rayne tore her gaze from the direction Mark had gone off and considered his offer. He was trying to make her happy, even though he didn't know that, and she appreciated that. Besides, it wasn't like she had plans afterwards. She rewarded him with a smile and nodded. "Sure. I'd love that."<br/><br/>Kyle grinned, running a hand through his shaggy hair and nodded. "Sweet. Well, I gotta get back to work. I'll pick you up when I can. Your number was included with the promotion, so I'll give you a call when I'm free." Rayne nodded and then was lead away. Rayne was looking forward to the 'date'. Time passed slowly for her but eventually her phone rang, signaling that Kyle was ready to pick her up. She met up where they had agreed to meet and then they were off. It didn't take long for them to reach their destination and they went inside. They were sitting at a private booth, discussing various things. Kyle was pretty cool, though he was certainly no Mark. But she still found herself enjoying his company.<br/><br/>"Yeah, I don't know what Mark's problem was, but he's usually nice. I guess he had a lot on his mind. I saw him heading towards Kevin, our new manager, and the guy's been kind of giving us trouble. He must have done something to piss Mark off." He shrugged and took a sip of his drink, earning a soft laugh from Rayne. "It's fine, I guess. I just wish things had gone differently, you know? I'm a big fan and was looking forward to meeting him and interacting with him like I did with you and the others. It was really disappointing."
