The rain falls..
Bill was silently staring outside the window. The rain was falling from the sky, clashing on the window. It was quite interesting to see how more and more waterdrops kept covering the glass. Staring at them helped him to empty his thoughts and to think about practically nothing. He didn’t want to think. He’d only end up asking himself stupid questions, knowing he’d better not try to answer them because he probably couldn’t stand the answer.
He looked round to the backside of the room. His older brother was sitting on the couch, staring at the television screen. Bill knew that the other guy didn’t see anything except for some flashing colours. He was deep in thoughts, there was no doubt about that. Next to him, in the far corner of the couch because Tom took much place, sat a boy with glasses and short, blonde hair. It looked like he was trying to make some puzzles and to ignore Tom’s regular sighs. The fourth bandmember was nowhere to be seen.
Bill sighed and turned back to the window. It was still raining. He tried hard not to close his eyes, though he was dead tired. Everytime he even blinked, he saw thousands of hands in the air, reaching for them. They’d reached for his freedom and eventually they’d grabbed it and pulled it away from him.

“Don’t you miss having a normal life?”
“Of course we do, but this is our dream and it is amazing what we’ve achieved. It’s worth it.”

Lies. Their dream was dreamt a long time ago, but it had slowly turned into a nightmare. It was time for them to wake up, but they were not allowed to. He wanted to sleep and to see that, when he opened his eyes, everything had changed. He wanted to discover that this was all just a dream. A bad dream that had been going on for too long. He was tired of smiling when there was nothing to smile about.
Bill finally gave in and closed his eyes. The rain kept on falling. It sounded like applause. Even in his dreams, this nightmare went on.
