Uptight, chapter 2
We kissed longer and longer. His hand ran up and down my back as he started taking off my shirt. I gently pushed him away,
"Joey, what are we doing?"
"I don't know, but I don't wanna stop."
We looked at each other again. As things started to progress I started to lay back on my bed. Joey started to get on top of me as we were kissing.
He stopped, "Ryan, are you sure about this?"
I thought about it a moment, "Yeah, I'm sure." I he'sitated, "I love you" I said this not knowing if he felt the same way, But I was sure he knew I meant it.
He looked into my eyes, a stare that would always burn through your soul, like his father. "I love you, too." I knew, at that moment, and possibly forever, that he really meant it.
I started taking off his shirt, as he finished taking off mine, when his phone rang. Oh, yeah, perfect time for someone to call. I was, actually, really pissed off. He sprung onto the floor and grabbed his phone.
"Hello" he said, gasping for air. I couldn't hear what the voice was saying on the other end but I could tell that it was Billie. Fucking Billie, I love him but goddamnit, he ruined an amazing moment, and I was really pissed. "we're just talking and watching TV, ya know, like we always do." I could tell he was pissed and annoyed that that damn phone tarnished the moment. Oh fuck you, phone. "I'm fine, yeah, yeah, love you, too, dad." he hung up and sighed. We didn't say much. He laid down beside me and held my waist.
"Another time." he whispered in my ear.
I turned my head and kissed him " Yeah," I said softly "maybe another time." with that we slowly drifted to sleep.

I woke up at noon, got out of Joey's grip, and got up out of my bed. I looked back at him as he rolled over, still sleeping.
"Hello?" I heard my sister's voice on the other end of the phone.
"Olivia, Hey, It's Ryan. How have you been?"
"Okay" she said, tiredly.
"Why do you sound so tired it's like 3 over there"
"Tired as fuck, and hung over like a son of a bitch"
"Yeah, I know what you mean"
"We're coming out in 2 weeks"
We talked for a while longer before I went back upstairs. Joey was dressed and watching TV, smoking.
"Hey" he said looking my direction
"Hey" I said, smiling, as I went over and started kissing him "The girls and I have band practice at Frances' house today. Wanna Invite Kimmy and Adam to come watch?"
"Yeah, I'll call them" he kissed me again and went downstairs to call Kimmy and Adam. I grabbed my guitar and followed him.
He walked into the kitchen, where I was eating a bowl of cereal, and said that Kimmy and Adam would meet us at Frances' house in a half-hour. We both took showers and got ready. Since I had finally got my car back I drove.
FRANCES' HOUSE
"Alright," Jen announced "Our next show is Friday"
"Who else, besides us and you guys, will be playing?" asked Kimmy
"Umm.." I said grabbing a piece of paper from the coffee table "It's The Lawngnomes, Book Of Shadows, The Feel Goods, 409, and Nightmare Doll Creation"
"Awesome" said Joey "But who the fuck are the lawngnomes?"
"You know Lewis? That kid from Ohio, yeah, That's his band."
"Oh, okay"
"Joey" I said, rolling my eyes, "You know if Frances comes out here and catches you fucking with her drums she's gonna go fucking psycho bitch on your ass."
Before he could say anything back Frances comes bolting through the garage door. "Goddamnit, Joey!" she yelled as she took off her shoe and chucked it at him.
A chuckle came from Adam, who was sitting on the couch with his bong.
Frances glared at him. "What the fuck is so funny?"
"You." he said laughing
"Oh yeah, well guess what all of this" she said pointing to herself "is off limits for you tonight." the smile on Adam's face was replaced with a frown " Now let's fucking practice" she said going over to her drums.
Jen plugged in her bass and I strapped on my guitar and stepped up to the mic. Joseph and the rest of his band were sitting on the couch, and taking turns on Adam's bong. We started to play, and I began to sing,
"Night one, you see everyone smiling
You can't seem to comprehend
Why everyone's so happy
And yet you feel like dying"
We rammed into the chorus
"Three nights of the underground
Three days to turn your life around
Three nights of waiting time
Three nights to take away all that's mine"
After we were done with practice we went out and watched some bands. After that I decided just to go home. I immediately regretted the decision. My step-dad was home. I was gonna be in shit now. Fuck.
"Where the fuck have you been stupid little bitch?" he said right when I walked into the door
"I was busy" I replied, trying to make it to the stairs safely
"Look at me when I talk to you." He said pulling my long black hair, and turned me to face him. I stared into his eyes, filled with anger and hate. I lost control and tears black makeup started running down my face. He pushed me down.
"Get the fuck upstairs" I got up and did exactly what he said.
I was so weak and powerless, I am nothing. Only minutes later I heard him walk into my room. I knew what would happen. Not again.
"Joey, what are we doing?"
"I don't know, but I don't wanna stop."
We looked at each other again. As things started to progress I started to lay back on my bed. Joey started to get on top of me as we were kissing.
