We met at Christie Road, chapter 2
"... My hair is shagging in my eyes, dragging my feet to hit the street tonight, to drive along these shit town lights..." It was about ten 'o' clock pm, our band started playing 15 minutes ago. The deal was, we played for an hour, then a break, then we had to play again.
"... I'm not growing up, But I'm just burning out, and I stepped in line to walk amongst the dead..."
I looked down while we busted into the second half and saw Melissa and her friend, whose name is Jessica, jumping up and down. Burnout ended and we started Emenius Sleepus.
"I saw my friend the other day and I don't know exactly what he just became..." Finally fourtyfive minutes passed like that. I jumped off the stage and walked over to the kitchen for a drink.
"Nice show BJ!" Eric slapped me on the back as I grabbed a beer from the table. I sat on the counter and talked to some guys about the show.
Most of the guys I knew from high school. "Hey Billie." I turned around and saw Melissa standing there. I jumped off and walked over to her. "Hey, you like the show?" I asked. "Of course, it was awesome." She smiled.
"Hey Billie, we are on in five minutes!" Mike hollered from the living room. "Okay!" I looked at Mel and said, "I'll catch you around after we play again, okay?" She nodded and said, "Okay, good luck."
And she hugged me. She let me go and walked away. My mouth stayed in the gape open position. My whole body tingled as I made my way back to the home-made stage.
I grabbed my guitar and we started playing Pulling Teeth. We were finally done playing for the night. I sat alone on the porch smoking a joint when Mel appeared again. She down next to me and said, "Hey." I took a drag on my joint and said, "Hey." Back. She offered me her drink and I took it. "What is it?" I asked, I stared at the liquid.
"Vodka and coke." I sipped it. I handed it back to her. After a couple minutes of silence I turned to her and said, "You wanna go back to my house?" She grinned and nodded. I stood and helped her up. We walked to the van and drove.
----next morning----
As I woke up, I felt someone lying on my chest. I looked down and saw Mel sleeping peacefully.
I ran my hand threw her hair. All of it came back to me. The party, when we left, what happened after the party...
