Chapter 1

Sara 'Sway' Wayland walked into Otto's garage and dumped her jacket down on the nearest flat surface.
She looked around and saw nobody
"Hey?" she called out.
Randall 'Memphis' Raines slid out from underneath a Ford Mustang Cobra R.
"Hey"
"What's wrong with her?" Sway asked pointing to the Car
"Just in for cosmetic. Checking out the brakes and the engine while I'm here."
"Oh"
He stood up and washed his hands before going to his girlfriend and kissing her softly on the lips.
"Not that I'm not happy to see you, but what are you dong here?" he asked
"Can't a girl just come and visit her guy without an ulterior motive?" she asked innocently
"Not normally." he said with a grin and Sway pushed away from him smiling a little. She walked to the desk.
"So been busy?" she asked Memphis while pulling herself up onto the desk top.
"Normal, I guess" was his reply
"No then" she said giggling quietly.
He shot her a mock angry look at which she grinned.
She picked a sheet of paper form the desk and started reading it,
"Where's Otto?" she asked, still reading the piece of paper.
He walked to the chair in front of the desk and sat down. Sway sung her legs round so they rested on either side of his.
"Out getting some new tools and stuff" he replied taking the piece of paper from her, looking at it briefly and then placing it back on the desk. Paper on the desk tended to be important and with Sway's amazing talent for losing things, he figured it was best if she didn't touch. He put his hands on her hips and dragged her gently down to sit on his lap.
"So, we never actually decided what you were doing here." He said to her, his lips millimeters away from hers.
"Well, I finished work early and got bored so I thought I would come here. You know, to see if Otto had any interesting cars in."
"Is that so, and here I was thinking that you just missed me"
She giggled and brought her lips to his.
"Hey, hey, hey. None of that here thank you very much" Otto said as he came through the door, Junie behind him smiling at the couple.
"Hey Otto, Junie. How you doin'?" Sway said getting up from Memphis' lap.
"Fine thanks hon." Junie said
Sway smiled at the older woman and walked over to the car Memphis had been working on. She slid hand along the hood,
"Nice!" she drawled, sending a quick glance in Memphis' direction.
"So baby you coming?" she asked Memphis' a few minutes later after she had finished checking out the car.
"Not yet, I'll be about 30 minutes?"
"Okay. I'm gonna head off. I'll see you in a while." She said picking up her jacket while walking to the door. Memphis heard the familiar roar of Sway's motorbike as she started it up and drove away.
He went back to the Mustang Cobra and slid underneath just finishing up what he had started with the brakes.
"Hey people"
Memphis slid out from under the car and looked up to see Kip standing in the doorway with a willowy blond on his arm.
"Hey" he said back as Kip walked in and sat down, pulling the blond down onto his lap.
"Hey Kip" Otto said from where he was on the other side of the room. He looked at Kip and did a double take. The girl who was sat on Kips lap was not the kind of girl he usually went for. Nicely dressed in a pink floral dress, blonde hair hanging straight and sleek to her shoulders, perfect make-up and pink strappy heels.
Memphis looked at Kip
"So do I get an introduction?" he asked gesturing to the girl
"Oh, yeah, right. Um Memphis this is Lisa, Lisa, Memphis."
"Hi" she said smiling
"Hi" Memphis said back.
"So where did you two meet?" He asked
"In a bar, she was a damsel in distress; I was her knight in shining armor"
"I lost my purse, Kip found it for me." She explained giggling slightly
Memphis was slightly confused about what was funny but smiled at Lisa and slid back under the car. "No Sway?" Kip asked, looking around
"No she went home just a few minutes before you got here, she probably passed you as you came in."
Memphis called from under the car. For once he was glad she was gone, he wasn't entirely sure how Sway would have reacted to Lisa.
