Blood Rose Chapter 8:
Back at home....
"Mr.Vash and Meryl haven't back in a while." Milly said.
"Normally Needle-Noggin would be dragged home by Shorty, if they went out to drink." Wolfwood said.
Wolfwood and Milly flipped through the channels to find something to watch, then they stopped on Comedy Central to watch Chapelle's Show.
"Yes it's on!" Milly said.
"Finally!" replied Wolfwood.
"I'm Rick James, Bitch!" Dave Chapelle shouted.
The door creaked open when Vash came in carrying Meryl. She was drunk as hell.
"Hey, Needle-Noggin, what's wrong with Shorty?" Wolfwood asked.
"It's a long story," Vash said.
-Flashback-
"We were at the bar having a few drinks and a couple of donuts when they decided to have a drinking contest. I had requested a song 'Louie, Louie' the Black Flag version, for the drinking contest. The prize was $$50,000 and I couldn't pass it up." Vash explained.
"Does that explain Meryl being drunk?" Milly asked.
"Let me finish, there's more, so anyway I signed up. Meryl got mad at me and we argued for a good 5 minutes until she decided that she would sign up too. So to increase our chances of winning we both signed up for the contest. The first few round for the both of us weren't so bad, then the drinkers got bigger and bigger and I knew I was going to beat them but then I remembered that I was the designated driver so I quit in the semi-finals." Vash continued.
"So what happened next?" Wolfwood asked.
"Let me at em!" Meryl said drunkenly.
"Come on sweet cakes." The burly man said.
"So I decided to watch Meryl beat the crap out of the big guys and when she got to the finals she started singing 'Can't Get Enough of You Baby' by Smashmouth and wobbling back and forth."
"I cna't get enough of you baby" Meryl sang as she hiccupped.
"Meryl just focus, if you beat this guy, we get the money and we can have a nice vacation, just the two of us, no Milly, no crazy preist, no rowdy kids, just you and me. " Vash said.
"So she drank the last beer and just sat there, without flinching. The big guy had his last beer too and then he threw up. That's how we won the money and after she was declared the winner, she wanted to kiss me and I wanted to kiss her, but then puked all over my face. So we drove home stopping and puking on the way there, so that's how it happened." Vash said.
-End of Flashback-
Wolfwood was laughing his ass off as he finished the story and Milly gave him a death glare, Wolfwood soon stopped laughing.
"Gee, Mr. Vash you have the worst luck." Milly innocently said.
Wolfwood started to laugh.
"I wish I could've been there to see it." Wolfwood said as he laughed.
Milly smacked him in the head and he stopped laughing.
What did I do to get stuck with these people? Vash thought.
"We're going to bed." Vash said.
"Okay, see you in the morning Needle-Noggin." Wolfwood said.
Back To The Hard Rock Cafe.....
"What's taking them so long?" Grey asked.
"I know Remus picked them up." Knives said.
"What if they got attacked by the mutant space gerbils I've been seeing!" Grey said as he panicked.
"Grey, kid, you gotta stop taking that medication your mom's givin ya, seriously, I'm worried about ya man." Knives said.
Just then, two beautiful young women in dresses walked into the restaurant. One was wearing a black dress and the other was wearing a blue and pink chrome dress. Knives suddenly recognized them both.
"Hey girls, we're over here!" He shouted.
Lenn and Rose walked over to their table and sat down. Grey' jaw dropped as he saw Rose's breathtaking beauty. She smiled as she sat next to him. Grey felt his heart beat like crazy and Knives noticed the look on Grey's face, so he decided to pull him aside.
"She's cute isn't she?" Knives asked.
"She's beautiful!" Grey whispered.
"Keep your bodily fluids inside, you don't want to her to see you drooling like a pervert now do you?" Knives said.
"Oh no, of course not!" He replied.
"She's waiting for you." Knives said.
"Okay." Grey said.
They both sat back down with the girls and ordered something to eat. Knives asked for some wine and a Cajun Chicken Sandwich, Lenn asked for wine and Caesar Salad, Grey asked for Root Beer and The Angus Steak Burger, Rose ordered the same thing as Grey.
"Uh, Uncle, mom said that you weren't allowed to drink on the trip." Rose pointed out.
"It's just wine! It's not like I'm going to get drunk off of wine!" Knives said.
"Yeah Rose, live a little." Lenn said.
"Well, I won't tell okay?" Rose said.
"Yes, I knew I could count on you." Knives said.
Grey moved a little closer to Rose and put his hand on her knee. Rose felt his hand and looked down. She looked then she started blushing. Knives and Lenn sat there trying to hold back their laughter.
"I need to go outside to get some air, hey Lenn come with me I need you to do something." Knives said.
"You don't need to have another person to go with you to get some fresh air, Knives." Lenn said.
"I need you to do something for me." Knives said as he winked.
"Oh okay, sure." Lenn said.
They both left the table to look around the restaurant. Grey and Rose sat alone at the booth.
"So are you having fun?" He asked.
"Yes, the most fun I've ever had in years actually." She said.
Grey yawned as he streched his arms. His arm landed on her shoulder. is other hand grabbed hers. Rose suddenly blushed like crazy. Grey leaned in closer to her.
"Well, what an interesting position." She said.
"Don't feel nervous around me, I won't do anything that you don't want me to do ." He said.
He parted her hair and kissed her cheek. Rose was getting redder.
Oh shit, he's finally making a move on me, what do I do, what do I do? Rose thought.
"Rose Strife, if you ever come home pregnant with Grey's child I will beat him with a stick! She heard her mother say in her head."
Screw you mom, I need to live. She thought.
Rose put her thumb on Grey's lips.
This is it! I hope I'm not a bad kisser. Grey thought.
He touched her thumb and leaned in closer. They were about to kiss when they suddenly hear gunshots.
"Get down!" Grey shouted as he was covering Rose.
Dammit! I was so close too, why!? Somebody must really hate me up there! He thought.
There were two men standing in the doorway. They were the same two men from Rose's dream.
"Where is Blood Rose!?" The man in red shouted.
The other man searched around the Restaurant for Rose. Grey was under the table with her.
"I won't let them take you." He said softly.
"What are you planning to do?" She asked.
"I got my cross punisher with me." Grey said.
Then he looked around and noticed he didn't have it with him.
"Okay, it's back at the hotel." Grey said.
Rose lifted up her dress and took out a knife and a small Derringer, modifed to have six bullets instead of one. Grey blushed as he caught a glimpse of her black lace panties.
"Here, use these." She said.
"Thanks, I'll be back." Grey said.
He took her weapons and then kissed Rose on the lips. Rose blushed again.
Damn, he is a good kisser. She thought as she smiled.
