and already chapter 2. :feels special: I don't care what the feedback was for chapter 1, as it's most likely not there right now!
Smiling Shyly
chapter 2
Though you only go home at 4,
you still rise with the sun
to live your life as a human.
It's not your favorite thing,
but it's necessary.
And you like your job
as a singer in a band
eternally featured
at a second-rate club.
But it doesn't start til later,
and now that you're awake
you might as well scout for possible prey
to meet after the band is done.
And somehow you find the
strange blonde man from the other night.
He is having lunch as an outdoor café
with an older woman
(you clench your jaw in jealousy);
she'd exclaiming over a fat stack of papers.
Soon she gets up,
bowing politely before leaving.
But the man remains,
sipping idly on his coffee.
And you approach,
taking the woman's empty chair,
lounging on it like you always have lunch with him.
He glares at your shyly smiling face,
tells you to leave;
your stomach flutters at his harshness.
Do you remember me, you ask him;
he continues to glare, answering no.
Your smile broadens;
you saw the recognition in his cold eyes
when you sat down.
You do, you accuse,
you just don't want to.
You lean forward, continuing.
You're afraid of what I'll do to you,
now that I've gotten a taste of you once.
And I know you enjoyed it.
You purr the last bit;
he shrinks back,a disgusted look on his beautiful features.
You lean back again,
lips twisted in an amused smirk.
I've got a gig tonight, you say.
Why don't you come?
We can have some fun afterwards.
You hand him a business card
with the location of the club,
your stomach clenching at the thought of leaving him.
Standing, stretching cat-like,
you give him a view of your stomach as your shirt rides up;
you see glint in his eye
and you know you'll come,
no matter what he tells you.
You say goodbye,
leaving him to deal with his conflicting emotions.
You have to get some sleep
before your gig.
It wouldn't do to have the singer
too tired to perform.
ok, the 3rd will be up later this week, definately by friday. and even if I get crappy feedback, I'm still updating, cuz it makes me feel special. :stupid grin:hands cookies to anyone who reviews, no matter what:
