 [/center]
“I knew you would see it my way, Luke. Or did you forget that I always get my way? Drunken twister is the most amazing thing in the world, and you will love me more after you experience it. As for when, I was thinking maybe tomorrow since you have such a busy life. I would hate to get in the way of that sunshine, or you know, we could just go now. Or you could come over later. That’s up to you. I have absolutely nothing going on.”
Her words ran through his head as Luke slowly walked down the somewhat busy streets of New York, with the time getting later, the less popular places emptied, while the heart of Manhattan filled with anyone who was anyone, except for Luke, whom had gone to how own apartment for a few hours between a date he had promised Evelyn, a girl he had known for some time, and had some strong feelings for quite some time, she was the girl of his dreams, not too girly, but she wasn’t a tomboy by any means.
He had memorized her address, she was pretty much two blocks away from his own apartment, but with how big the city was, it was easy to get lost, though sometimes that wasn’t too bad, getting lost was sometimes the only way you could really find yourself, Luke had done that once or twice before, gotten on a subway and just taken a ride, exploring wherever he got off, it was a beautiful thing – for one to discover themselves.
Of course, tonight wasn’t about discovery, at least – that wasn’t what Luke had on his mind, a flurry of mixed drinks, twister, some TV, maybe a few video games, and a nice dinner was what he had planned, or at least expected, Luke and Ev had plenty of fun, and were very secure friends – they could come to each other for anything – in utmost confidence that it would be kept a secret, that was one of the things he loved about her, but he wasn’t ready to take that jump, he didn’t want to sacrifice everything he had worked so hard to get with her, just for a moment of pleasure, if things didn’t work out with them in a more intimate way, he’d rather just play it safe, and be her friend – at least for now, until he got things settled in life, at least – that’s what he thought.
Slowly turning the corner, Luke made another quick turn, taking a few steps up a small stoop, before opening the door quietly and walking in, he remembered how to get to her house, he could do it in his sleep if he had to, quickly walking up the stairs he stopped by the second flight, looking at the apartment door for a moment, before knocking quickly, and before waiting for a response or anything, quickly turned the doorknob and walked into the comfortable apartment, a childish smile on his face, he didn’t see Ev right away, not sure where she was, he spoke loud enough to be heard through the entire apartment.
“Hey, Ev, I’m here.” He spoke loudly and clearly, before slowly retreating through the apartment, a small brown bag in his left hand, before slowly sitting down at the small dining room table, waiting for Ev to come find him, placing the brown paper bag on the table as he waited, smiling slowly as he leaned back, waiting for the young beauty to appear before him.

 ( WHEN I SEE YOUR SMILE )tears roll down my face , i can't replace[/color] NOW THAT I AM STRONG , I'VE FIGURED OUT. . . . . . . . . . . . . When Evelyn left the diner that afternoon, she had a feeling that Luke was going to be at her place that evening. It was what she had expected after leaving the way that she had. Ev knew what she was doing with men, seeing as how she had been the way she was for many years. For most of her life, she watched her mother use men. So when Evelyn grew up into a hormonal teenager with wants and needs, she was the first to realize attachment wa for whimps, masochists, and people who were not aware of the world before them. After her first sexual experience was ripped away from her as a little girl, by a man she trusted, that was the end of that. Men were to give her what she wanted and leave. But that was not the case with Luke. Luke was the kind ofman that Evelyn imagined herself with, and she knew that. The only problem ith that was she was not sure if she wanted to give her lifestyle for him just yet.
She managed to get to her apartment, while all the thoughts of her childhood were still overwhelming her. She questioned how her mother married the man; how he could mercilessly do that to a girl night after night; how her mother ignored it, and why everything happened. Then again, if those things had not happened, she would not be half the woman she was, and she was thankful for the abuse she withstood. With these rank thoughts flooding her mind, a shower was a good way to erase the pain and get ready for that evening with Luke. When she thought about him it brought a smile to her face. Instantly she knew that her lifestyle meant nothing, and her life could not be complete without him in it. The warm water felt good against her skin, and she tried to clear her mind of all the evil thoughts clouding her mind.
With her brunette hair hanging wet around her face, she pulled it into a ponytail until she could figure out what she was going to wear for the evening. She thought about just wearing comfy clothes, but then again it was Evelyn. She did not like dressing down, but the skirt she was going to wear was colorful and comfortable. Everything about that outfit was sexy, yet totally Ev. She was fun and flirty, plus, this showed off her amazing body. She was not afraid to show Luke a side of her he had not seen, because she wanted him. She always had, but she also did not want to ruin what she had going on with him. Luke was one of the only people, if not the only one, that Evelyn trusted. There was something about their friendship that made it all worth while. She was nit sure if she was ready to take the next step if it meant giving up what they had as friends. What she wanted was for that step to make it more worth while for them.
There were still hours to go until Luke decided to grace her with his presence, so she decided she was going to cook. Thankfully, she had picked up all of the necessary ingredients to make a glorious steak, baked potatoes, and of course a chocolate brownie cake. Now she may not love to cook, but Ev loved baking. She already had chocolate chip cookies and snicker doodles, but this cake brownie combo was perfect. Ev also busted her ass to make her body perfect because of the junk that she ate. As everything was cooking, she looked at the clock and it was time for Luke to be arriving. Evelyn still had so much to do. Her apartment was not small, but it was not huge either. It was luxurious without going out of her means. The Rock Band system was set up in her living room, but all of the alcohol and twister was in her master bedroom. She rushed into her bedroom to locate and set it up when she heard the boy enter her apartment. The panic truly set in when she realized she still had no shirt on. Yes, she cooks half naked, it is her home, why shouldn’t she? She grabbed her white shirt, looked in the mirror and adjusted hair and make-up before exiting to find Luke standing in her kitchen with a brown paper bag. She smirked at him and checked the food.
When she bent over to check the food,she hada feeling his eyes would be glued to her. She stood back up and smiled at him. “Food is almost done, and I hope you like medium to medium well done steak. Because that is what you are going to get.” She watched him closely before asking him, “what are you staring at? and what do we have here in our hand Luke? Did you bring something and not intend to share?”[/color] she made her way towards him, and kissed his check. Tonight was going to be so much fun.

[/center]
“Food is almost done, and I hope you like medium to medium well done steak. Because that is what you are going to get, what are you staring at? and what do we have here in our hand Luke? Did you bring something and not intend to share?”
Leaning back in the chair, it was almost like Ev appeared in a blur of a moment, and it wasn’t just Ev, it was Ev in a short skirt and a tight shirt, of course – Luke didn’t find anything wrong with that, a small smile covered his face as he watched her bend over, it was almost as if he hadn’t heard anything she had said, his eyes were concentrated more on her well-shaped legs and stomach more than then anything else, she was a fine specimen, a beautiful girl, someone he would, one day, love to call his and only his.
“I happen to be staring at an extremely beautiful girl,” He said, moments before her soft lips touched his cheek, it was like high-school all over again, and it was like he was a virgin, all over again, he remembered his first time pretty well, names – not really, but he remembered it happened in the back of his 93 caravan, that was about all he did know, she made him feel special. “…. As for the steak, that’s fine – I’ll eat most anything someone puts in front of me, and in this bag?” Slowly lifting the bag up next to him, then placing it slowly on the table, he revealed two bottles of Captain Morgan’s 100-proof spiced rum, a small smirk on his face, he quickly crumpled the bag up, placing it slowly in the garbage, it was just something he did.
“Mom taught me to never enter a home empty handed, and since – this seems to be the theme of the night, I figured I should bring some good rum over – and trust me, this is good rum.” Smiling like a child getting his first present, Luke had a few times where it was just him and Cap’n, and it was quite the experience, he wasn’t a hard drinker, but when he felt like it, he could smash down quite a few drinks before he was out of it, let’s call it southern abilities. Slowly cracking open the fresh bottle of rum, Luke feigned taking a whiff of the rum, as if he was a professional.
“Ahh, 1934, a good year.” He mocked, smiling before closing the top back up, his eyes meeting with Ev’s, before almost shying away, she was so beautiful, so pure, so perfect for Luke, and yet it was almost like he was afraid to try anything, reiterating on earlier – it was high-school all over again.
“By the way… you look great Ev, if I knew you were going to dress up, I would’ve changed into something nicer, He commented, almost disappointed by what he was wearing “… at least better than a plaid shirt and some jeans.”
He could smell the food behind Ev, steak and potatoes, a wonderful combination, and something he had been raised on – kind of, meat and potatoes fitted the description better, his mother would make whatever she could to raise the large family they had, blood and not, most of the time it was the basic stew, potatoes, carrots, sometimes even beans – steak was a rarity for the Hunter family, though once he had hit stardom, he had it several more times. Leaning back in the wooden chair that he had recently sat in, Luke looked over what he could see of her apartment, it was pretty nice, and much cleaner than his own, which was riddled with water bottles, fan mail, and dirty clothes – it was safe to say that Ev wouldn’t find her way to Luke’s apartment very soon, unless she was interested in cleaning it, he would let her come over and do that, and probably watch with pleasure.
“When I got home from the diner, a journalist lady called, Elena, she asked me a few questions – most of which pertained more to you than anything – I just have to know, do we really look like a couple?” Luke said, trying to spark some conversation with the beauty who was working hard out in the kitchen.

( WHEN I SEE YOUR SMILE )tears roll down my face , i can't replace [/color] NOW THAT I AM STRONG , I'VE FIGURED OUT. . . . . . . . . . . . .
Evelyn knew by how she was dressed that a certain boy’s eyes would not be shying away from her body much tonight. To be perfectly honest, Ev did not mind one bit. The only boy that Ev had ever let come into her apartment was Luke, and that was for obvious reasons. The first being she was terrified to go over to a boy’s place that she had not cleaned. Which was why she was drunk ninety-seven percent of her life. She was not the fan of random hook-ups, but drunken hook-ups were almost unavoidable in her line of music industry. She also did not mind much because of the men who were in her life first. Her biological father left her mother, and her step father ripped her innocence away from her. Needless to say men were untrustworthy. Which brought up point b, of men not being trustworthy. As much as she hated to admit it, she hated guys. That was why she acted the way that she did with them, but this one this one was different.
Everything in Evelyn wanted nothing more than to turn her back and hide, but when it was Luke...things were different. He made her strong enough to carry on, and she cherished that about him. So when his eyes were burning into her body, well she did not get angry. Instead, she was enthralled with the idea that he was pleased by her. Then again it was Luke, which meant he would have adored her even if she was wearing sweat pants. When she picked her head up,she smirked at the boy, because of what he said. She had never expected him to call her beautiful, and it made her blush a little bit. That had never happened to the brunette before; she also had never liked or potentially loved a boy like she did Luke, ever before. She stood a few steps away from him after her kiss and smiled. “Well, that is good news there slick. I would hate to put something down in front of you that you wouldn’t like. I am particular bout my steak so, they should be done in like five minutes. So, don’t make fun of me.”
She was serious about him not making fun of her, because if he did it would be his last wish. Evelyn did not do this ever, because it was almost like letting someone in your life, like on an intimate level, and she had never done that before. No man had ever meant anything to her like Luke did. She could tell him any deep dark secret of hers and he would take it to the grave. She loved that, and what she loved even more was that his mama raised him right. When Evelyn caught sight of the 100 proof Captain her eyes lit up and were gleaming like a kid in a candy store. Alcohol was her weakness, well besides drunken sex, but that was because of the alcohol. At least that was her logic. She was still grinning when she started to speak, “Well, remind me to send your mama a thank you note for letting me enjoy her son as much as she must. Because right now Luke Hunter, I could freaking kiss you. How did you know I LOVE Captain and Coke, Captain shots, oh and tequila. But that is all in my bedroom.As for 1934, if that is when this bottle of liquor came into this world well thank you Jesus!”
Alright, so she was a little overly excited, but this evening was going to be perfect. Evelyn wanted to wait and see how dinner went before she decided anything. She was seriously debating about kissing him there on the spot, and it would not take much for her to do it, but then she realized that she needed to get the food out of the oven. His next words made her blush more, and at that moment she was thankfull that her legs and stomach were the only part of her body that he could see. Luke did not need to see her checks blazing hot, because she was not any more amazing or beautiful than earlier. Then again she was not about to play twister with him either. Everything about tonight was perfect. She looked up at him from under her hair as he spoke about himself. “Luke are you crazy? You look great! If you would have changed you wouldn’t look like you so just hush.” [/color] And she set his plate down in front of him. She was thankful for getting to spend time eith him, outside of public. They were two different people when they were by themselves, and this was how she liked it. Though she loved their games, she loved these moments too, until he spoke her name. Elena was the columnist that hated her guts. She was always saying something about her being wild, drunk, or a whore. Frankly she was sick of it! She looked at his distraught, but quickly composed herself as she sat down across from him. She grabbed the open bottle of Cap’n and took a good long drink before speaking. “Elena or Mack, is a ruthless bitch that hates me. Of course she is gonna ask questions about us, but on your question...I can see where people would think that. But would it be such a bad thing if we were Luke? We are together all the time, and then people wouldn’t run their freaking mouths...”[/color] her words trailed off as she ate and gulped down the Captain Morgan.

“Well, that is good news there slick. I would hate to put something down in front of you that you wouldn’t like. I am particular bout my steak so, they should be done in like five minutes. So, don’t make fun of me.”
Showing a small smile, Luke’s mouth slowly opened, at first – unsure on how to reply to her. “You know anything you put in front of me is good, as for how my food is done, as long as it isn’t alive, we’re good.” Smiling again, he remembered when his father brought home live crabs, it wasn’t the most pleasant experience hearing them shriek in the boiling-hot water, but they tasted amazing, especially with butter.
“Well, remind me to send your mama a thank you note for letting me enjoy her son as much as she must. Because right now Luke Hunter, I could freaking kiss you. How did you know I LOVE Captain and Coke, Captain shots, oh and tequila. But that is all in my bedroom.As for 1934, if that is when this bottle of liquor came into this world well thank you Jesus!”
Laughing quietly, Luke slowly looked over Ev, at least for a moment – she was like a child, getting her first new toy, except this was liquor, it was good – and it would get most anyone drunk, of course –wasn’t that the point of the night? He would probably pass out here, and wake up around ten the next day, his body forming some weird shape on the sofa, a headache, and of course a monster hangover – the only bad side to drinking. “Well calm down there, skipper, we’ve got all night to drink, and you’re a pleasant person not so drunk – and as for the year, I would think this was made more like a year ago, tops – modern day stuff isn’t preserved like it was back in the day – not to mention something from 1934 would cost a fortune, and I ain’t mr. moneybags.” Smiling slowly, Luke slowly opened the bottle of Captain Morgan, pouring a glass for himself, taking a small sip of the spiced liquid as he watched the girl in front of him work.
“Luke are you crazy? You look great! If you would have changed you wouldn’t look like you so just hush.”
Laughing as Luke looked down at himself, he shrugged his head rather casually, his mouth slowly opening. “I think I look like myself no matter what I wear…” Smiling, and letting out a small laugh, Luke looked up at Ev, before taking another sip of his glass, he couldn’t keep his eyes off her, between the short skirt, heels, and the tight shirt, it was almost as if she was tempting him with her body, oh how women could be so evil.
Admiring the plate, Luke slowly reached over for the fork and steak knife, cutting into the steak rather easily, yet so properly, one thing about a southern household was that everyone ate properly, the only difference? Every night, in a southern household, you said your prayers, you thanked Jesus for the food, the family, the friends, life – everything, of course – Luke hadn’t said prayers since he moved out of his fathers, and they rarely said them after he moved up from the south – his mother was the pressing religious one in the family.
Slowly putting a piece of cut up steak in his mouth, Luke’s eyes weren’t on his food, but his table mate across from him, chewing the steak slowly, admiring the flavor built up into it, he smiled as he swallowed the chewed up piece. “Fantastic.” He commented, before quickly taking another bite of the steak, washing it down with another sip of the rum.
“Elena or Mack, is a ruthless bitch that hates me. Of course she is gonna ask questions about us, but on your question...I can see where people would think that. But would it be such a bad thing if we were Luke? We are together all the time, and then people wouldn’t run their freaking mouths...”
Slowly placing down the fork, and looking up from the steak, Luke could tell just by the tone of Ev’s voice she wasn’t a fan of this Elena girl, someone Luke wasn’t so fond of – nobody really ever made any drama with drummers, they were just there, in the background, keeping the beat for everyone else to go off of.
“Ruthless, eh? We were on the phone for a good ten minutes, she didn’t seem very mean to me, I mean, it was only one time, and I’m sure she was just being extra-nice to get some sort of answer out of me, and I ‘m no people expert, but she seemed alright – why would she have a target on your back? Ninety percent of the musicians on tour are all over the place, you’d think she’d have more to worry about.”
Quickly picking up his fork and knife, Luke tried his best to elude the second part of her question, Luke wasn’t sure what to do, she was perfect for him, yet he didn’t want to lose his best friend if things didn’t work out, he loved her more than anyone in his family, and she was probably the one girl he could think of off the top of his head that he would consider dating, and he knew that she felt the same way, or at least close to it.
Stuffing his mouth with a piece of steak, it gave Luke time to think, he didn’t want to blurt out something stupid and ruin everything, but he also didn’t want to give her the idea he wanted to jump right into a full-blown relationship, quickly taking a bigger gulp of the rum, he slowly opened his mouth, unsure of what to say – until he said it. “I don’t know… you don’t think it’d be weird or anything like that? You’re a wonderful girl to be around, and I know what you mean I… I… I don’t know, I just don’t want anyone to get hurt. He wanted to blurt out ‘specifically you,’ at the end, but held that part back, Ev was probably the one person he would die for, just so she couldn’t feel an ounce of pain in the rest of her life, but he couldn’t tell her that, he didn’t want to seem like the sappy super-romantic type, even though behind everything Luke was – it was true, he was the sappy romantic type.

( WHEN I SEE YOUR SMILE )tears roll down my face , i can't replace [/color] NOW THAT I AM STRONG , I'VE FIGURED OUT. . . . . . . . . . . . .
Evelyn was not sure exactly what the boy meant by setting things in front of him, because it could be taken many different ways. Ev being who she was, smirked at him. She most likely took it a way that was not intended, but she loved that Luke knew she probably would. At least he was not particular about the food, though the girl knew how to cook. It was one of her many talents, but Luke was the first boy she had cooked for. He was a special guy, and she hoped that he understood that. “Alright cowboy, so what if I were to sit down in front of you on a silver platter, what would you do then? As for your food, I am glad to hear that. Makes my life so much less complicated.”
[/color] Her smirk widened into a full blown smile at her words. The worst part was that she knew she could get away with saying those kinds of things to him. Their relationship was one for the books, and that much was obvious; though the label of what they were was unimportant. Evelyn’s philosophy was to just let it go, and let the flow take us where we needed to go. With her alcoholism showing through, she knew she looked like a kid in the candy store. She could not have been more excited, though tequila would have been better. Tequila was her drink of choice, but having some Captain in you was a whole other story. Her eyes danced with excitement and wonder with the bottle she held in her hand. She knew that /luke would make fun of her, and of course she was not disappointed. Her eyes snapped over to him, when she realized what he had said to her. She didn’t mind the statement so much when he said she was pleasant when she was not drunk, but Ev could not remember if the boy had ever experienced her drunken wild side. It was a crazy thing to foresee, but her drunken self was so nice to her hungover self. There is always a bloody mary stowed away for her use the next day. “I will have you know, that I am a lot of fun drunk thank you. And drunk me is so nice to hungover me it is rediculous. But that is besides the point, and you are pretty pleasant yourself. I certainly don’t mind having you around, but you make fu of me again Mr. Moneybags and I am fairly certain that you will not like the outcome, okay?”[/color] When Evelyn started to think about where this night would lead, she seemed almost nervous. She had never liked someone like Luke, but then again there had never been anyone quite like Luke before in her life. He was different from all the other boys that she had ever liked,and maybe it was his southern charm that did it. Whatever it was, Ev really did not care. She knew he would take her couch if she asked him too, just because that was the kind of guy he was. She loved that, but then again she was not sure if she even wanted him on her couch. He would make a good person to snuggle buddy. There was nothing that could hide how happy she was to be there with Luke, and she made the remark that she did. Now granted, everyone always looked like themselves, but if Luke had changed it really would have been a date. Evelyn did not care if it was a date or not, but it would not have been such a bad thing if it were. She laughed at him, and smiled brightly. “Alright, I suppose you would still look the same. But of course, it would be very different though if you were dressed up or something. It would not just be Ev and Luke. It would just be....weird I guess.” [/color] She could not think of a better way to explain it. Her smile stayed plastered on her face, until their conversation turned back to Elena. With the conversation on a topic that she did not like, the alcohol was making liquid courage. It was one of her favorite past times. She waited as she tried to make her thoughts coherent, the Captain going through her system in an alarming rate. When she looked at the bottle, there was a good chunk of liquor missing, with most of her food gone, she went back to her bedroom and grabbed the handle of Jose Cruervo. It was going to help more than this rum was. She did a couple of shots back there and took it out to the kitchen area. “Sorry, I needed my drug of choice. Tequila is my favorite and if I am going to have to talk about Elena, well then I am going to need it. Well, of course she is not going to be mean to you. She wants every piece of information she can get about me. It seems like I am her favorite target and until my wild child ways change, well then she is going to keep attacking. She uses me for satisfaction and follows me around, so it is a mess. [/color] She took a few more shots and smiled at him. With the food almost gone, she took a few more bites and listened to his response. Evelyn really wondered if it would be such a bad thing to be with Luke as a relationship. They were happy as friends and everything, so the real question is how did that change things. Her face was lit up with a smile, an her eyes were dancing like a child’s again. She knew that this could work between them, but they were going to have to work at it. She wanted her answer him witty and coyly, but she really just did not care anymore. “Luke, it is you and me. So no, I really don’t think it would be weird for us at all. It would be different is all. That’s the thing. So I’m not sure about things. I guess it would be up to you. We could, take tonight as a testing ground maybe...”[/color] Ev wasn’t sure what to say to him. She did not want either of them to get hurt, and that was what she feared most. Ev cared more about him than she did herself. She was wiling to try, but it depended on Luke.

“Alright cowboy, so what if I were to sit down in front of you on a silver platter, what would you do then? As for your food, I am glad to hear that. Makes my life so much less complicated.”
Showing a small grin, Luke quickly responded to the girl in front of him. “Ev on a silver platter… doesn’t sound too bad, and I’m sure I’d enjoy it – as for the food, I’m always this simple, steak’s good, but really any type of meat is fine with me.” It was true, raised in a family like Luke’s - food was food, he was taught to never ask what dinner was, nor when it was.
“I will have you know, that I am a lot of fun drunk thank you. And drunk me is so nice to hungover me it is ridiculous. But that is beside the point, and you are pretty pleasant yourself. I certainly don’t mind having you around, but you make fun of me again Mr. Moneybags and I am fairly certain that you will not like the outcome, okay?”
Letting out a soft chortle to Ev, Luke slowly leaned on the table, watching as the girl continued to talk. “But that would mean I’d have to see hungover Ev, if I wanted to see drunk Ev – I guess every rose has it’s thorn… I’m not bad with my hangovers, I just feel like someone’s holding my head and pressing hard against it…” Smiling as he took a small sip of his drink, he continued. “… you know I’m just playin’ with ya Ev, and – I do know I’m pleasant, I always am – drunk or not.” Letting out another small laugh, he admired how the girl could act so normal, so natural, even though this was something that wasn’t normal, this was the first time he had really been to Ev’s house, and sat down for a dinner date.
“Alright, I suppose you would still look the same. But of course, it would be very different though if you were dressed up or something. It would not just be Ev and Luke. It would just be....weird I guess.”
Taking another swig of his drink, Luke showed a small grin as she spoke, sometimes Ev really did ramble, and sometimes it didn’t make much sense, Luke was Luke – no matter what he wore, or how he wore his clothes, he didn’t change with a suit on, or become some super-stud in a muscle-shirt – he was Luke Hunter, the guy who was your average Joe. “You know, I think I look good no matter what I wear, and I must say – I know you look amazing with anything you wear, especially that skirt, even though – I must admit, I’ve never seen someone wear a skirt while they were cooking.” Letting out a laugh and a small smile, it was true.
“Sorry, I needed my drug of choice. Tequila is my favorite and if I am going to have to talk about Elena, well then I am going to need it. Well, of course she is not going to be mean to you. She wants every piece of information she can get about me. It seems like I am her favorite target and until my wild child ways change, well then she is going to keep attacking. She uses me for satisfaction and follows me around, so it is a mess.
Making a feigned pain face, Luke thought about it for a moment, if this girl really did have a vendetta against Ev, then Luke was just a pawn in the whole game, just a stepping stone to get some dirt on the ‘wild child,’ letting out a small laugh, he quickly opened his mouth. “That bitch, usin’ me like a steppin’ stone to get to you, I knew nobody ever just wanted a plain ‘ol interview with the drummer – I can’t wait until she calls me again, I think I’ll be throwin’ her a curveball…” Smiling, he quickly added “… as for the Tequila, don’t worry about it – I’m not that big of a drinker, but I must say I’d take spiced rum over tequila any day, sorry about that… but – hey, if you enjoy being the ‘wild child,’ and she doesn’t faze you – live on party girl.” Smiling with a short, almost breathless laugh behind it, Luke didn’t want her to continue her party antics, he enjoyed being around her, and if she was drunk, having drunken hook-ups, then she wasn’t Luke’s, it was weird - she truly was a rose with thorns, and some baggage along with them.
Having emptied the glass of Captain Morgan, Luke was quick to re-fill the glass, he had destroyed most of the steak, and the potatoes were all gone, and the recent change of conversation was getting a little weird, not uncomfortable – just weird… and a little awkward.
“Luke, it is you and me. So no, I really don’t think it would be weird for us at all. It would be different is all. That’s the thing. So I’m not sure about things. I guess it would be up to you. We could, take tonight as a testing ground maybe...”
Quickly finishing off the steak, and taking a swig out of his glass, Luke wasn’t sure how to reply to this, he loved Ev, of course he did – it was just the fact that she was a little too wild for him that drove him away, taking a moment to ponder if it sounded like a good idea, he quickly responded.
“You know what? I could see using tonight as sort of a ‘test,’ you’re a wonderful girl, and I really do enjoy being around you – let’s see what happens tonight, and take it one step at a time.” Taking a quick swig of the drink, he quickly added. “So, what’s next?”

( WHEN I SEE YOUR SMILE )tears roll down my face , i can't replace [/color] NOW THAT I AM STRONG , I'VE FIGURED OUT. . . . . . . . . . . . .
She smirked at the boy, because she enjoyed him. If she really were to be on a silver platter, well she knew that he would enjoy it. She definitely would make it worth is while. But that was all in a joking manner. Sure, she had half meant it when she said it, because that was who she was. Sure, people liked to have a wild side, but everyone always said that Evelyn was the wild child. Maybe she was, and maybe she was not but part of her questioned how far she took it. There were always nights that she thought, maybe she had taken it too far, like the few nights she ends up anywhere but her own home. She did not like being that girl. Quite frankly she hated being her, but she was not sure if the one person that needed to know that, did. The only person who’s opinion mattered was Luke, and she had to make sure that he knew that her eyes really were for him. As scared as that made her, because it terrified her to no end. She wanted him to know she could change if the right guy came her way. That guy happened to be sitting in front of her. “Glad to know that my ideas are not totally wasted, but maybe for your birthday I’ll make you a special present. Ya never know.”
[/color] She smiled at him broadly when he said about hungover Ev. The reality of that was funny; she actually was not that bad of a person when it came to that. She was a fun drunk, and besides the headache the next morning Ev was fine the next day. She wore her smile brightly, because she knew the truth. “You would be surprised as to how much fun hungover me is. Other than a headache, which is combated by the bloody mary, I am the same old Evelyn that you always see. It is kind of amazing that I can still do that. But that is besides the point. I am fun and enjoyable at any given point Luke, and so are you! And of course I know you are teasing me, because that is just how we work. We are a little bit crazy, a bit teasing, and always good-looking.” [/color] She winked at him from across the table as she continued to pick at her food. There was something comforting about the fact that no matter what either of them wore, or how others talked about them, it was always the same. She was Evelyn, and he was Luke. That never changed, and Ev had comfort in that. She knew that no matter what happened in her life that Luke was going to be there to pick her back up if she fell. He was her saving grace, her guardian angel. He was the one thing that was never changing in her life, and her life was constantly changing. When her hair fell in her face, she hid how she really looked at him. That was where the inspiration and muse came from. He was never going to change, and she would change for him. It could be the one thing that she could offer. She loved going out and partying, just like ninety-five percent of the musicians around her. The difference was that she cared more about Luke than anything. She could change her wild child ways if she really wanted too. When he said about her skirt, she busted out laughing. “You know what Luke, I think you look amazing. Even in your jeans and plaid, and thank you for the compliment. As for how I cook, well let’s say that you were lucky that you did not walk in earlier. Because frankly I hate cooking with clothes on. I would rather be naked, and it is my house so I can do what I want. So don’t be surprised if I am up making breakfast with no clothes on, mk?”[/color] The boy had a right to know, and although she adored him, she had never said that to anyone. She frowned when their conversation went back to Elena, because frankly Ev was tired of talking about her. She tried to just let it go, but she looked at Luke from under her eyelashes. She felt terrible that he was getting mixed up in all of this. She had been following Ev around since high school, so it was not anything that the brunette wasn’t used too. She just did not want Luke involved. “Luke, I am sorry that you are getting mixed up in my mess. Elena has known me for years, so I am her project that she uses when nothing else comes her way. So I am sorry that she is using you, and I promise I will take care of it.”[/color] That was the truth. She was not going to let Luke be used for someone else’s personal gain. She wanted Luke all to herself, and the prodding was going to stop. Enough was enough, and that was what made her smile. She looked at the boy and smiled at his empty plate. She was pleased that he had enjoyed his meal. The brownie cake thing was not done, so she figured why not move to Rock Band. Before she said that, she grabbed all of the dishes from the table and rinsed them in the sink. She had a dishwasher so there was no sense in not doing the dishes. As she cleaned, she spoke to the boy, “Well how was everything? Things tasted okay an everything? As for what is next...the dessert is not quite done, so I am thinking Rock Band. Every time someone loses, they drink. Turns this into a drinking game and then dessert and then twister. I think you might need to fear for your life when we get to drunken twister. For I am nimble, flexible and the master of all things twister.”[/color] She smiled brightly as she finished dishes and grabbed her tequila. She went to her living room and started the game. While bent over, knowing he would be looking, she pulled her hair out of her face. She smirked at him and spoke seductively, “As a test goes, well I think that might be a good idea. We will take it one step at a time, but tonight is just a starting point. For now let’s see where the path takes us.”[/color] With her eyes locked on him, she continued with the same tone. ”Well are you coming or not?”[/color] [/blockquote] [/font] . . . . . . . . . . . . .[/font] ( TAGGED ) ( LUKE )( NOTES ) (GIDDY WITH EXCITEMENT! )( WORDS ) ( one one four seven )( CLOTHES ) ( CLICK )( LYRICS ) ( GUARDIAN ANGEL - RED JUMPSUIT )( LISTENING TO ) ( ABSOLUTELY NOTHING )( GRAPHIC BY ) ( RORA @ HOS[/b] )( CREDIT TO )( RORA @ HOS[/b] )[/center][/size][/quote] |

cause this is the real thing [/i][/color] ,[/size] love changes everything *[/font]
( THIS IS THE NIGHT WHEN EVERY HEART'S EXPLODING! )
[/center]
“Glad to know that my ideas are not totally wasted, but maybe for your birthday I’ll make you a special present. Ya never know.”
Grinning again, Luke waited a moment, before quickly responded to the girl’s comments about a silver platter. “Ah, finally an idea not wasted, as for my birthday, I’ll be waiting, that’ll be fun – but will you have an apple in your mouth?” Laughing again, it was obvious that they were warming up more and more to each other, if it kept going at this pace, they wouldn’t need any alcohol to have an excuse for sex, drunken or not.
“You would be surprised as to how much fun hungover me is. Other than a headache, which is combated by the bloody mary, I am the same old Evelyn that you always see. It is kind of amazing that I can still do that. But that is beside the point. I am fun and enjoyable at any given point Luke, and so are you! And of course I know you are teasing me, because that is just how we work. We are a little bit crazy, a bit teasing, and always good-looking.”
Nodding his head as he listened to her, his smile lightened his face up as she spoke, Luke didn’t enjoy being hungover, sure – there were ways to counter it, staying drunk, some say coffee, a cold shower, or even getting slapped would work – but Luke wasn’t one to differ from the norm, maybe a cup of coffee if it was bad, but he would never jump in a shower cold, or let someone slap him for no reason. “I can just imagine it now, seeing you cover your ears and talk about how loud it is when something hits the ground, or being groggy all day – at least, that’s me… I’m sure a nice quiet hungover day would be nice, but everyone knows that never happens, nobody’s that lucky… also – I’d have to say that you’re the crazy one, ‘wild child,’ and only one of us is good looking, the other one is incredibly beautiful.”
Smiling as he finished his sentence, Luke was telling the truth, Ev was an extremely beautiful girl, she kept herself in shape, and she definitely knew how to flaunt herself, example: short skirts…
You know what Luke, I think you look amazing. Even in your jeans and plaid, and thank you for the compliment. As for how I cook, well let’s say that you were lucky that you did not walk in earlier. Because frankly I hate cooking with clothes on. I would rather be naked, and it is my house so I can do what I want. So don’t be surprised if I am up making breakfast with no clothes on, mk?”
Snapping his fingers, Luke quickly commented to her, “Damn, I knew I should’ve showed up ten minutes earlier!” Luke thought she looked sexy wearing what she had on now, imagine less than that. Smiling like a child as he heard her talk, he quickly added to his previous statement, “well, you know – there’s nothing wrong with that - even if I’m not much of a breakfast person, I’m positive I’d enjoy the show.” Grinning sheepishly, they were both going at it so hard, they both knew what they wanted, and he knew it was driving them crazy to be so close, and so hot for each other, but unable to do anything.
“Luke, I am sorry that you are getting mixed up in my mess. Elena has known me for years, so I am her project that she uses when nothing else comes her way. So I am sorry that she is using you, and I promise I will take care of it.”
Hearing the sincerity in her voice, he could tell she didn’t want him in any of this business, it was obviously her own fight, and Elena was a pain in the ass, probably to just more than Ev - she was a wolf in sheep’s clothing, she made herself look nice, professional, and sincere – but underneath the disguise was a ruthless bitch who would sacrifice everyone in order to get a good story. “Ev, don’t worry about me… I can handle myself, especially with these reporters and everything, they’re too busy with the guitarists and singers to worry about us drummers… or bass players, we’re probably the hardest workers in the band, but does anyone care? Nope… so don’t worry doll, I can handle myself against this Elena lady, I just want to make sure you don’t get fazed by anything.
“Well how was everything? Things tasted okay an everything? As for what is next...the dessert is not quite done, so I am thinking Rock Band. Every time someone loses, they drink. Turns this into a drinking game and then dessert and then twister. I think you might need to fear for your life when we get to drunken twister. For I am nimble, flexible and the master of all things twister.”
Laughing quietly, Luke slowly pushed himself away from the table, grabbing the half-filled bottle of Rum and his half-filled glass cup, before slowly walking over towards the living room, he was a good half-foot or more taller than the girl before him, and a spitting image of his own father, save his mother’s beautiful dark hair and smooth skin, it was obvious he was his father’s son, with a few of his mother’s attributes. “It was fantastic, the best steak I’ve ever had… now, for the rock band thing, what if one of us has an unfair advantage, like – they play it all the time, because I think I’ve played this maybe a dozen times in my life, you – on the other hand, look like a rock band expert… I think I’m gonna be done for.” Laughing he slowly began walking towards the living room, before pausing himself for a moment, watching her bend over slowly, between the short skirt and the heels, she was driving his hormones, and himself, crazy.
“As a test goes, well I think that might be a good idea. We will take it one step at a time, but tonight is just a starting point. For now let’s see where the path takes us. Well are you coming or not?”
Noticing that he had stopped and stared for some time, Luke made a somewhat surprised face, laughing as he quietly went and sat down on the sofa behind her, big enough for two of them, as a third would be a tight squeeze – leaning back into the soft sofa, he wasn’t exactly sure how to reply to her, he did like her, and it was probably good that they got the whole forbidden thing past them, it was obvious that she was willing to throw what they had for friends out the window, because it had the chance to become something more than that, and while Luke was hesitant, she had talked him into it, he truly enjoyed her company, and she would probably make a fantastic girlfriend, especially since they were both located in New York, and without and pending tours, they wouldn’t have to go forever without seeing each other.
“That sounds like a good idea – one step at a time, inch by inch, yard by yard, we’ll see what becomes of… this.” Smiling like this was his first date ever, he quickly added on. “A starting point is good – I’m glad we decided to test things out.”

( WHEN I SEE YOUR SMILE )tears roll down my face , i can't replace [/color] NOW THAT I AM STRONG , I'VE FIGURED OUT. . . . . . . . . . . . .
She knew exactly what to say to make Luke squirm, and her on a silver platter would definitely be it. Now Evelyn was not about to make this easy when it came to being on a silver platter. Now with an apple, she could make that extremely seductive, and if she was wearing an outfit like what was on her body he would be on his knees. She knew that much, and she loved that. As she looked at him through her hair she smirked brightly. Her eyes were dancing with excitement. “Is an apple part of your dream? Is that a wish that needs fulfilled for your birthday Mr. Hunter? A girl clad in skimpy clothes, with an apple in my mouth, for you to do whatever you wanted with me? Is that your dream of a good time?”
[/color] She could not wait for that response, but she grabbed the microphone, guitars, and pulled the drum set over for their use. Ev was not sure what he was going to want to play. She smiled at him brightly, because he doubted her hangover skills. Now that was going to be an experience for Luke, because she did not lie about her hangover. Her headaches where not bad, especially when she found her bloody mary that drunk Ev let for her. It was almost like she had another personality, but that was not any different than her regular self. Though she did wake up to the everything being loud and the sun being too bright. “Alright, so sure the loud noises right when I wake up annoy me, but then again so does the light that shines in my bed early in the morning. The nice thing is that we don’t have anything to do tomorrow so we can share a hangover day together. Sound good to you?[/color] She smiled brightly as she spoke again. “and I am not crazy, maybe a bit on the wild side, but definitely not crazy. As for who’s good looking or not, Luke I’m gonna have to say you are mistaken. You are just as good looking as I am, and that is that.”[/color] She was listening to him speak, and she knew he would be kicking himself for not coming earlier. She meant to intregue him and make him want her more than he already did. Evelyn knew that there was a sexual tension between them, and soon there was not going to need to be any alcohol needed to make her lose control. She wanted Luke to be with her in ever way imaginable. He was who she wanted and no one was going to stand between that, and that was a fact. She smirked at the boy, “Awe, Luke missed the topless Evelyn cooking show, but now that the secret is out about my cooking habits..I see you being over here a lot around mealtimes, eh? As for breakfast, you will most definitely enjoy the show. I am thinking chocolate chip waffles, which will mean lots of cooking for you to enjoy.”[/color] She winked at him and made him well aware of what she was thinking. She was sincere about everything she had said. She was not about to let anyone ruin anything. Elena was not going to ruin this. “I know you could handle yourself with her, but I am going to take car of this. She will not have anything else to do with this, but we can just forget about her. We can just move on, and let her find out her information from other people. I’m down for ignoring her after I squash this, eh? And I do not get phased by Elena. She is scum between my toes.”[/color] She giggled a bit with that. Little Rascals was one of her favorite movies, and that letter always made her smile. Especially when she was able to apply it to her own life, and Elena was exactly that. Scum between her toes. When she had everything set up, she knew that Luke was still admiring her body. The sexual tension was like electricity. It was pulsating through out the apartment, and Evelyn wanted nothing more than to kiss that boy where he sat. She looked at him, and was excited, more than she had ever been with any other boy. Luke was just different, and that was what she wanted. Someone to be who she really needed in her life. She smirked at him. “Luke, I do not play this all the time. I only ever play with other people, but it is cool. It will just make drunken twister so much more fun.”[/color] She winked at him and grinned widely. She was glad to be there with him and no one else. She saw him make his way over to the couch, and she knew he was comfortable. She walked over to the couch, which ironically was only big enough for two people and snuggled in beside him. He smelled good, and the electricity was almost too much for Evelyn to handle. She wanted to kiss him. That was a fact. She looked him and smiled brightly. Luke sitting there was making her hormones race wildly, and her pulse was racing. Waiting for the game to load was the longest stretch ever, and she could not help it. This night was supposed to be a testing ground, but Ev was not sure how much she could hold herself back. She kept peaking glances over to the boy, when she knew that this was how most girls would have felt in high school. It was how many years late, but worth the wait. Ev was happy to be where she was. In the final moments of waiting, she couldn’t control herself anymore. She looked at him and leaned into him. After she did that, there was no turning back, and she kissed him. In that kiss, Ev felt like she was at home and safe. She could feel the hormones racing through here, and she leaned into him and their kiss. The only thing that Evelyn was hoping, was that she had not pushed it that far. When her lips parted from his, she smiled. “that one step too far, or do you want to do that again?”[/color] She took the shot that she had poured and let that race down her throat, but the only thing she cared about was kissing him. She wanted things to work and she wanted him to want her just as much. So hopefully he said he would rather kiss her than play this game, but there was no way he was getting out of drunken twister with her.
