Saturday

Harrison shows at 11:25, he has a gym bag. I inquire about it, His persona he says. We head to my car, shit Mom's leaning against the car with Sawyer. She smiles and I intro Harrison. She says get in we're going to Summers. Shit what is this about. We pickup Sam and drive silently to What? The Summers house is full, As we walk in I see Widows, Goth, the Band, Abby, Mr. &Mrs. Lopez, a couple of the dancers, and head of Security "Bull". Whoa what's going on? Immediately after introductions, Mom, Abby, the Lopez's and bull disappear to a back corner of the yard. The girls go to the garage a start practicing the stage routine.

I wasn't expecting this to look like a family barbecue. More like some cheese stereotypical fake MTV reality show. The girls are all clean and normal, well as normal as teenagers and young twenty-something can get. Their friendly and polite. I am impressed by the whole scene. Abby takes my hand; we adults move to a back corner in the backyard.

"Anna, thank you for coming, Teddy is a nice young man. We hope you will join us, to look after people in the group. What are your concerns?" Abby ask

"Abby, Mr. &Mrs. Lopez, Mr. Bull my main concern is Teddy and Sam. What does she get from this, and will they be any danger doing it?"

"Anna, please call me Maxie. She is incredible creative particularly musically, all the girls ours. The staging allows them to explores and express their sexuality safely and in structured environment. We censor the girls act and routines. Also, the girls make a good living. Many are paying their way thru school, whether high school or college."

"Mrs. Anna, it just Bull, like the character from old sitcom Night Court, I will guarantee you while at the club security is tight, layered and up to your and Mr. Grey standards. I have one of your retired security officers Mike Ryan, overseeing the operation." Says the heavily muscled 6 foot 8-inch security boss.

"Yes, I remember Mike, he still does special event for Taylor, our Family security chief, I would like to hang around and get to know the girls better. Is everyone here? I ask

"No, Anna. the Babes, Punks and Ladies are not. The ladies are down in San Diego for the week attending a physic symposium, they attend WSU Vancouver. The Punks are researching and doing term paper, they attend Belington High school across the Sound. The Babes, Lonnie and Bea are spending the next two weeks in rehab. This is their last chance in the group."

They return to the house. Mom is looking relaxed and goes into friendly mode, the one she uses at Gala and parties. Sam and the Widows and Goths are working on a new stage routine. While the band is encased in the living room are reworking some new song. The house is abuzz with the creative energy. If anything, Mom heightens the feel of calm caring, insightful. The girls are having problem with a move. Anna and Maxie demonstrate its easily, naturally, the Moms' rule.

I look up a Grandma and Mary comes thru the door. The girls crowd around them. Concern and supportive, wow, they are a Family. JoJo and Scary, the Goth's, corral and lead her to the dance floor to immediately works on integrating Mary into their section. Grace is instantly a success, easily winning and nurturing everyone. Mom and Grandma are surprised their both here. But they know why. I think they're happy.

Harrison is weird. He's stake out a spot in the living room, watching Fred intently. I don't like it. Sawyers here and Bull they're talking in the kitchen. I grab them and we grab Harrison to the conference corner in the backyard.

"Ok Harrison what the deal, what with you staring at Fred?" I ask

"Fred, what do you mean? I was watching Elf." He states

"Listen kid, I don't allow stalkers; I've seen you at the club. I will fuck you up if you try anything. " Bull says

"I'm in love with ELF; I want to try for a relationship. I want what you and Sam have. I want a chance to try." Harrison pleas

"Ok, you'll get the chance, but if she says no, it over." Mr. Lopez says startling us. Bull nods, me and Sawyer look confused but we go with this.

We return to house and Elf is smashing her bass and screaming at Fred. Mr. Lopez moves to get her, but Harrison reaches her first; hugging her, carrying her outside.

I see them in quiet words near the swing set. Fred is on the couch being comforted by Grace and Abby. Fred was harping on one of Elf song, didn't know she wrote.

Like me, Mr. Lopez is quietly watched out the window at Elf. I see Harrison kiss her and she kiss him back. I feel arms around me, head on my shoulder and lips on my neck. I stroke her hands and escape into the feeling. Everyone is get better.

teddy-pov: I'm the hot sexy Indie guy, Derek is super-hot punk rock teacher. Jeff, JoJo half-brother, a dancer is Goth Victorian submissive. Harrison is Dungeon and Dragon sexy Hercules gone buff barbarian, with a blood red wolf mask. A perfect match to Elf's costume. He lifts her high is the air during her bass solo.

Abby talks Mom and Grace into going to the show. Summer spare bedroom is stuffed with cloth, costumes and odds and ends. Mom is going as sexy Victorian steam punk librarian, not a stretch, black leather split skirt, long dark leather jacket over a merry widow's corset with purple fringe, top by a white cameo mask.

Grandma surprise everyone by going as super-hot German Goth GILF, a teal leather and lace skirt, a sleeved brocade jacket with ruffled cuffs over a red silk bustier, smart hat with dark green mesh. a perfect match to Mary new persona, German Goth coed, blonde leather and lace skirt, green silk bustier with a sleeveless brocade jackets and colored steam punk flip glasses. Mom calls Dad and grandpa to the show.

They show up in persona, Dad is super-hot, steam punk jock with ripped jeans no shirt, still ripped at his age, a leather red and gold letterman jacket festooned with patches, custom made, where did he get that? not off some rack, with leather hockey mask, blood red with saber fangs. Grandpa comes; clearly collusion is happening, as German Goth GDILF; a grey leather twin breasted suit, with chains and red silk waistcoat, without an under shirt, Grandpa still buff too, wearing a color shifting jackal mask. Grand's and Mary look like a Goth family, so cool.

The show is fantastic, even Mary new look and group is wild and a hit. Fred is on cloud nine. Mary is bouncing happy with grandparents. and mom and dad hug me and Sam together. A perfect start, to bad I didn't know a storm was on the horizon.
