.Occasionally, she would make a mistake, and an odd note would cause her face to crinkle up.Despite her own harsh criticism of herself, the faces of her bandmates were pleased.Phil, seated in his corner of Rex’s garage, had a wide-eyed smile on his face as his girlfriend shredded through “Freebird.” Rex, hidden behind his drum kit, was fiercely pleased with her performance, causing his own to be more vigorous.The lead singer was nodding his head and holding up a lit lighter.He was tall and lanky, his tow head nearly brushing the low ceiling.His Slavic features, a long wide nose and decidedly pointed chin, made him look a bit silly, but nobody would never mock his powerful singing voice.Blinking the sweat out of her eyes, she ground through the outro.When they were finished, Sven clapped his hands and whooped.“That was awesome, ja?”“Oh, ja,” said Rex, standing up and clapping himself.“I think we’re ready,” said Phil.“Honestly,” said Crawley, though she beamed from the praise, “I think Rex shouldn’t be allowed to have any caffeine.He keeps speeding up when he gets excited.”“Don’t be worrying,” said Sven, “the beer will counteract the effects, ja?”“Yeah,” said Phil.“We took a road trip up to Maine and Rex showed up with his only suitcase full of beer.”They had a laugh at Rex’s expense, though he seemed not to be too terribly offended.“Explain to me again,” said Phil, coming over to speak with Rex while Sven tuned his bass guitar with Crawley’s assistance, “why we have to work on a night when everyone else is partying?”“Exposure,” said Rex with a grin on his homely face.“This party is probably going to be huge.Chet has a six-car garage, and it was packed with people last New Year’s.Eve I told Chet he should have a live band next time, and he asked me if I knew any, and here we are.”“Yeah,” said Phil, glancing nervously at Crawley, “but I’ve never had a girlfriend on New Year’s Eve before.I was kind of looking forward to—”“You can play ‘hide the salami’ after our last set,” said Rex with a shrug.“Besides, look how excited she is.You know how much of a thrill it is to play for a live audience the first time, even if you’re not getting paid to do it.”“We’re not getting paid?” Phil asked in alarm.“A little bit,” said Rex, his eyes narrowing.“Three hundred in cash, plus we get to drink for free.”“Guess it’s too late to back out now,” said Phil, running a hand over the peach fuzz he no doubt thought of as a mustache.“Glad you see it my way,” said Rex.“Now shave that pathetic cunt hair off of your face!”“Stop it,” said Autumn harshly, glaring at Steve on the sofa.“Stop what?”“Ever since you found that stupid bottle, you wince whenever I sneeze, groan, or fart.It’s annoying as hell, so stop it.”“I hadn’t realized,” said Steve, chewing his lower lip.“Well, it’s stupid and unnecessary, so stop it.”Steve sighed, rubbed his fingers along the bridge of his nose, and then gave her a small smile.“I’ll try to keep it in check.”“You’d better,” she said, kissing him on the cheek.“I never want you to treat me like a porcelain doll.Hell, you know how much I love it when you throw me around.”Steve shook his head and smiled a bit bashfully.“Oh, there he is again.” She leaned forward and put her hands on his face.“Your inner Puritan is back!”Steve took her hands in his and gently kissed them.“I so don’t have an inner Puritan.”“Yes you do,” she said, kissing him.“It’s one of the things that I like about you.I get to corrupt that god fearin’ little shit right out of you!”“Corrupt this!” Steve suddenly tickled her in the ribcage.“Stop!” she said through peals of laughter.“Don’t…Stop it!”“Don’t stop it? Whatever you say.”“Can’t…breathe…” said Autumn, tears rolling down her smiling face.Steve stopped, and she gasped on the couch for a moment, trying to compose herself.“That was dirty, getting me in my weak spot.”“I can think of more delicate areas.” Steve pretended to be thoughtful with a finger pressed up to his lips.“That’s not a weak spot; it can grab hold of you and give you a decent hump, can’t it?”“I’d say more than decent,” said Steve, running his hand over her black sweat pants.“At some point we have to start getting ready for this party.”“Sun’s not even all the way down yet.” Steve began kissing her on the neck.He left a tender trail down to her shoulder, exposed due to the wide neck T-shirt of his she was wearing.Hooking his hands on the collar of the shirt, he jerked his arms back and ripped the garment in half.Autumn gasped, her toes curling in her Hello Kitty socks.Chapter 13“I GUESS WE’RE SETTING UP over there.” Rex pointed across the already crowded garage.His tone seemed to indicate he was less than pleased [ Pobierz całość w formacie PDF ]
