"You don't owe us for the food. You found it the same as us. We just cooked it for you, which I'm sure you ladies could do. It was a group effort. So we appreciate you looking over our bikes. It makes it hell of a lot easier on us. You need any parts off the other bikes just ask, we can strip them pretty good," Drake said calmly. It was good the have a mechanic, one trained in what they were doing, not just what felt right.
"There's water for sure, I know that, it's just a pout if it's flowing through the pipes or not. If it is, well then you can shower. If not, I'll have to go to one of those sheds out back. One if probably for electric, the other water. I'll get it running then. I need light to see it though, and don't want to go stumbling around in pitch black, I've done enough of that before all this." He laughed and helped himself to some burgers patties and dogs. He added a scoop of beans and some ketchup. Sitting back down he sat across the table, opposite of Sienna.
"Any music will sound good right about now. Been a while since I even hesrd a song. Need to find a portable CD player or something."
Johnny filled his plate, taking only a few small portions. Despite there being all the food he wasn't hungry. He never was an eater. Would rather enjoy than eat. He sat down across from Sierra, taking a spoonful of beans.
"Right now I'd settle for some bieber. I haven't heard music in almost over a year. The bikes don't play music, and we aren't going out of our way to find something." He smiled and looked around, watching Gareth fill his plate and sit back down inthe steel chair.
"Well judging how you know what a keiser bun is and I don't, I'd say you know more than I do. I think I'd burn water if I tried to boil it. Definetly not a cook. Give me parts and I'll put a bike together from scratch, but put me in a kitchen and I'm a mess." He grabbed some shot glasses and poured some for each of the girls and Drake.
"So you girls are actually going. To travel with us? You're Okay with this Sienna?"
Sienna chuckled as Sierra was talking about them thinking they could bake bread just because they are female. She shook her head, "Last thing I baked was back in middle school, and it was for a bake sale to support our class, those cupcakes were horrible." She laughed and looked at her sister, 'Remember Dad felt bad and bought them all so no one else would have to eat them." The thought of her dad made her fall quiet for a minute. She missed him, "Beiber." She heard Switch say, "are you serious? Please tell me you're joking?" She glanced at Drake, "He's kidding, right?" Sienna picked up her hot dog and dipped it in the ketchup before taking a bite.
"So we just need to try the shower and if it works, we are golden, " She glanced at her sister, 'So, i take it you don't wanna share a room?" She spoke a little lower, leaning closer to her, then glancing at Switch. Sienna really didn't mind, she had covered for her sister many times, when she would sneak out as teenagers, but she didn't want to be left alone. Bones worried her. He was being too quiet now, like he was planning something.
Sienna looked at Drake, "tell you what, we get it plugged in and charged a little and we can scroll through and see if there is anything you like?" She took another bite of her dog. "I suppose we can ride together, for a little while, safety in numbers and all that."
"You'll take anything Johnny?" She laughed as he said that, shaking her head and taking another bite of food. "I'd rather sing then hear Bieber. And trust me, I'm a terrible singer." She liked ribbing her sister but laughed alongside with her as she also teased Johnny about that particular choice in music.
She kept eating as the others spoke about fixing up the bikes and trying to get the showers to work. Her eyes occassionally shot up to meet Johnny's but went back down to eat. She finished her shot that he poured and she already felt her empty stomach filling up after eating only half. Maybe it was the tequila that filled her up the most.
"Look, if it's too much trouble, we'll just wait until morning to shower. You shouldn't be going out there in the dark to hit a million different switches and pumps. We'll try it, like Sierra says, but if it doesn't work, we'll wait until morning."
Finishing off the hot dog she turned a bit to her sister and leaned in, although both Drake and Switch would probably hear her words.
"I haven't heard music in over ayear. I'd take anything you have on that dam thing just here a song sung by anyone other than myself," Johnny said looking at them. "Be it bieber, or happy birthday. As long as it's music." He shifted his eyes to Sierra, "hell I'd even take your singing. Over a year since I heard songs, I can't be choosy."
He took a bite of his food. "Besides, if that's all you have on their then I'm not the one with the problem," he said with a smirk. Throughout the meal he would meet Sierra's eyes anytime they glanced at him. He didn't eat very much of what on his plate, mostly the meat, didn't even touch the beans. Guess the cans of them in his bag he was sick of the taste. But he downed his shot, and took a breath. He really needed a chaser, despite it not being that strong.
He heard what Sierra said, she wasn't being that quiet. Was she teasing him again? This in front of everyone. She was mocking him, he could feel. Yet his face still blushed. He couldn't help but getting hot and bothered by her comment. Finish what she started, almost sounded serious.
"So it's settled then. We fix the bikes and all ride out tomorrow," he said clearing his throat. "Why don't we dump he dished in the kitchen, and then go pick out our rooms. If we plan on getting up early to be outmofmthe re before noon we should probably get some rest."
Though if Sierra was telling the truth, he doubt rest would be what he was getting. It would be a long night
"Last thing I baked was a pizza. I pushed bake on the oven and left it till it was done," Drake said with a grin. "You girls ate out lots and still maintained a figure like that. I'm impressed. We mostly ate home cooked meals. Open door community most of our chapter. You ate with whoever you were with, whatever their significant other or mother cooked for you. Lots of soups." He smiled thinking of all the dishes he took for granted by all those people he'll never see again. "Johnny's mom makes a sweet Shepards pie."
As Johnny mentioned he'd listen to bieber Drake almost spit out he drink. He gave a laugh as Sienna asked if he was serious. "I hope not, but ask him yourself." Johnny explained as Drake continued to eat. "Shit has it been that long, over a year. Feels like just yesterday we were getting started in the club." He shook his head. "Better get that thing charged. Probably have a ton of updates." He smirked at Sienna and laughed.
The girls both talked about the shower and he nodded. "Yeah try the tap, and see if it works. If not I'll fix it tomorrow while you fix the bikes. I can promise you a shower before you leave here, even if I have to hook up a hose directly to the well." He took another bite to eat, completely finishing his plate. He pushed it aside and finished his beer.
He hesrd what Sierra said about finishing what she started and Drake gave Johnny a playful nudge. He laughed. "Sounds like a plan. We should go check on the water, I'll make sure the grill is turned off. You can charge your phone, and then we can head to our rooms."
He smiled at Sienna, taking both her and her sister's plate under his. He then added Johnny's on top, leaving Gareth to himself. "Meet you three inside."
Sienna watched their faces and realized how relaxed they all seemed. First time in a long time she had seen Sierra like this. They laughed and joked. It was good to hear that laugh. The real one and not the forced one you make to be friendly with new people. Switch was in for it, Sierra was going to eat him alive. She had seen him blush now, twice, and knew he was not a match for her sisters prowess.
Drake mentioned an early morning and he took her plate. She had stopped eating awhile ago, she was scared to make herself sick. As he took her plate, she realized she hadn't finished her shot. Sienna drank it down, and headed inside to get her bags and pick a room. She was looking forward to charging her iPod. Music had always been a staple in her life. She grabbed her bag and pulled it out with the cord. Funny , she had held on to it for so long, guess she had held out hope that someday things would start to get normal again.
She moved over to the bar and found a plug behind it. She plugged it in and waited, staring at the screen. It lit up coming to life. She laughed," yes!" Her eyes strayed to her sister," you check the tap in the shower, I wanna play with this for a minute." Sienna pulled up a playlist and it wasn't long til you could hear the sounds of drum, and guitar rifts starting out low and then she turned it up. Her eyes scanned down the list, it was one she had made for riding to races with her dad. Smooth sounds of southern rock filled her ears and she was right back in the truck sitting shot gun next to her dad as he sang simple man beside her. God she had hated his singing, teased him often about it, but right now she would give anything to hear it. She hadn't realized it, but she was swaying back and forth as Lynard Skynard played.
Drake picked up the plates to take everything into the kitchen. She wasn't doing dishes, that was for sure. It was the apocalypse..the only thing that needed to be done was to stay alive. Sienna got up and went inside also to look for a charge for her Ipod, leaving just her and Johnny outside at the picnic table sitting across from each other. She could feel the awkwardness oozing from Johnny and it seemed to cause a thick air of uncertainty between them. But she wasn't about to let that wall stand in her way of what she wanted. She was a girl of action and that's the exact reason why she won races.
She got up slowly and went to him now that they were alone, running her hands along the back of his neck, massaging gently as she leaned in and whispered. "I meant what I said. I will finish what I started with you."
Her breath was hot against his neck as she leaned in and gently kissed against his throat, turning his head with her fingertips as her lips then met with his. It was a soft kiss, not a passionate one, meant to entice him further. Surely he wouldn't deny her tonight, would he? Gently and slowly she pulled back, reaching down for his fingers with her hands, meant to pull him away from the table and bring him inside. Sienna was talking about her testing the showers which she acknowledged with a wave of her hand. "Okay."
There was only two things on her mind now. A shower and Johnny.
As Drake left Johnny was left alone with Sierra and Sienna. Sienna soon left to find a place to charge her phone, Gareth moving outside around the corner to have his after meal smoke.mformthe time being, a short little quip, he was alone, with Sierra, again. He looked at the seductive siren, watching her as she moved closer.
She slid around him, hands around his neck. "Did you now," Johnny said,messing a brow, "I don't want to be lead on, teased." He felt her breath on his neck, his bodymtense. She kissed him, his neck, throat. He let out s groan and gripped the table. The fireman coming alive again, this dam girl. Being teased, must resist.
She turned his head, her eyes meeting his. He blinked s few times before she kissed him. The kiss was soft, and passionate. He kissed her feeling himself melt against her. His hands gripped her arms, slowly she held his hand, pulling him up and into the next room. Her hesrd Sienna ask about the showers, but his eyes and ear Werner focussed on her.
He pulled Sierra closer to him and kissed her neck this time. His hands still gripped her, following her as they walked. "Showers are this way," he said as he kissed her neck again.
Drake simply took the plates to the kitchen and dumped them into the trash. He stepped back and smiled. Simply done, at least they wouldn't attract anything outside. He whiped his hands on his pants and stepped out of the kitchen. It also avoided clutter in the garage for when they got to work.
He stepped out just in time to see Sierra pull Johnny into the bathroom. Drake just chuckled and shook his head, coming up behind Sienna. He hesrd the song and tapped slong to to it. "You got it working, that's good, and no bieber." He smiled and leaned against bar. He nodded his head slong to the music.
"Any CCR on their. One of my favourite bands," he said calmly, "what I put on to cruise, drift away. They are universal. Good for fighting, drinking, just can't dance to them." He laughed.
Tracing his finger along the bar he watched her, "so you saw Sierra run off with Switch to the bathroom. You think they will, uh, you know." He raised a brow as he spoke. "You got something else on your mind, I can tell, so share."
Sienna shook her head , erasing her thoughts as she heard Drake's voice. She had to stop doing that. The past was dead and gone and she needed to stop thinking about it. She turned around and saw him leaning against the bar not far from her.
CCR, he mentioned and she scrolled with her thumb," I don't know, used to slow dance with my dad to this one when I was little." She pressed her thumb against the screen and a few moments later music started again. " I used to call it the candle song." She shook her head," long as I can see the light, was one of dad's favorite. This is a playlist I made for him actually."
She shrugged," probably, she seems to like him." Sierra was a grown woman and she was t about to get involved. He asked her what she was thinking about,"just missing my dad, that's all." She glanced around," well, we know where they are, and you and I are here, so where's the asshole?" She moved around and hauled herself up on the bar, swaying her feet," looks like we have to wait for showers, so.... Guess I should pick a room. I can leave this here for you to check it out, if you want, lots more songs. "
"That's cool. My father died when I was seven. Practically raised by the club. I never did shit for them like that. Maybe went as far as a few thanks here and there. What was it like for you,your family was close," Drske asked calmly. His mother was a crack whore who fucked a new guy everyday, father dead. He wasn't close with his family. He had his grandma, and the club. That was all.
Drank tapped along to the song. "Gareth, he went out for a smoke. Does the same shit every time he eats. He'll finish it, probably take a piss. Then he'll go brood somewhere. Same shit every night."
He looked at the door, "Guess you should then. I think I saw Johnny eyeing the big room earlier. I better pick mine too," he said with a smirk. Lead the way, keep it charging."
Sienna really didn't want to talk about her dad, she just wanted to drop the subject. She listened as he explained about his family and she stared at him," sorry about that, had to really suck." She truly meant it. She knew being raised by her dad wasn't everyone's ideal, but there was always worse out there and it sounded like Drake had experienced worse.
"Yea,we were close, Sierra and I are twins, believe it or not, so kinda goes with the territory." She picked up her bags. He said to leave it charging, so she didn't take the iPod. That smirk as he told her to lead the way, what was that about?" Will someone lock up? I mean, those two won't come out for air for awhile , so are you gonna wait up for him to come inside and the. Secure the place?" She glanced back at him as she headed down the hall. She didn't care what room she got, so long as the place was secure for the night. She wanted to sleep and not be paranoid of people getting in, or worse.
She stopped at a door and opened it. Room wasn't that big, but bed looked decent enough. She dropped her stuff on it and looked at him," they probably gonna end up in the same room, so guess I'm sleeping here." She didn't come out and say it, but she didn't wanna be alone. She didn't trust Bones. What if he tried something?
"Yeah it did, it it's life. Made me who I am today. Why I was so high in the club. They were all I had, so I kept with them. Switch is the same way, as Bones. Figure most of us were that way. Without anything, so bikers were your family. Or you were born into it as I and Johnny were. But that what was thrown at us, like you and racing. I'm sure your dad was into it before you were."
He moved out of the bar, and followed her, she left the iPod, "twins huh? Figured you were older actually. Maturity and all. Guess it goes to show you don't know what to expect." He kept walking with her. "We'll lock up soon, once bones is back in. Shut the garage doors, lock the doors, close,Windows. It may get hot in htere, but better safe than sorry."
Me watched her. "Not like there anyone out here though, middle of the desert, lone road in fron. If we didn't encounter anyone by now, I doubt we will tonight."
He moved along. Seeing the room she picked out he smiled, "alright, I think they will too. So why don't we give them some space, the big one at the end of the hall." He pointed to it. Walking to the room next to her's he tossed his bag on ground. Coming back out he looked at her. "What's wrong," he asked, studying her face, "you okay?"
Sienna stood there for a moment, staring at the door to the bathroom. What's wrong? She shook her head, "They need to come out of there and go to the room, I have to pee." She frowned, 'Sorry, that's tmi, but I do." She glanced back down the hall towards the bar, "so you will lock up then, and you're gonna sleep there?" She pointed to the doorway next to hers, "If that old bastard tries something during the night, you'll come running, right?" She locked eyes on him, and he could probably tell for the first time, she was scared. She didn't like the way Bones looked at them, and especially not the way he felt allowed to touch.
"I don't trust him." She looked at Drake, 'Is there another toilet somewhere?" She headed back towards the bar itself, "I am gonna grab my iPod and then try to sleep." She had spotted an outlet next to the bed, so she could plug it in, put in her ear buds and let the world drift away. Sienna came back and glanced at Drake, grinned a shit eating grin, then crossed the hall and pounded on the bathroom door, 'Ya'll need to get a room, other people need to pee!" She chuckled and then slid over next to Drake to see what happened.
She said she had to pee. It was the only bathroom, but it was a community one. Various shower stalls, bathroom stalls, lockers even. This clubhouse was more like a dorm than a house. The door was open, but that didn't stop her from just not wanting to go in there.
"Sadly that's the only bathroom. But it isn't locked. You could go in and Pee, bathrooms are just before the lockers and the showers. But uh, I wouldn't go in there," he looked at the door. "But yeah I'll lock up, and be right next door. If anything happens I'll come running. I or,lose that."
He moved away, he watched her pound on the door. "I don't think they'll hear you. Could you uh, pee outside."
Sienna stared at the bathroom door, listening to Drake. She wasn't sure about his description of the set up, "So....toilets are first, like stalls, then lockers, then showers?" She glanced at the iPod in her hand, then he said it. Pee outside!
Her eyes bugged out, "Really? I can't just whip it out and piss like you guys can, that's, no." She shook her head, "Besides, Bones is out there, I am Not dropping my drawers anywhere near him." She locked eyes on Drake. He said he wouldn't go in there, uhuh.
Sienna put the ear buds in her ears, and grabbed his hand, "Come on cowboy, I ain't doing this alone. She moved for the door and turned the knob, opening it slowly. The place was steamed up. She sighed and glanced at him, mouthed please, and then opened the door enough for them to go inside. She scurried to the first stall and hurried in, she shut the door a little and then got her jeans down , did her business and hurried up. Sienna came back and ran to the sink, washed her hands and then grabbed his hand and yanked him back out. She looked up at him as she pulled the ear buds out, 'No way I was listening." She smiled at him,"I owe you, scared for life now?" She grinned at him and then raised up and kissed his cheek, before standing in her door way, "You sleepy? Wanna listen to some music with me? Clean those sounds outta your mind?" She chuckled and moved into her room and plugged the iPod back in, waiting to see if he would follow her.
"Yeah that's what it was," he said nodding to her statement about the washrooms. "Yes, bathroom stalls, lockers, showers." She talked snout being outside and he shook his head. "You can't? I've seen many women," he paused, "never mind. I could have distracted bones but." Putting in her earbuds she grabbed his hand.
As she pulled him into the washroom he tried to protest. "Stop wai.." But he stopped biting his tongue as they came into the washroom. He couldn't help but listen to Johnny and Sierra as Sienna quickly hurried. When she was done she dragged him out again,more moving her earbuds once out the door.
"Funny she called him cowboy too," Drake said out in the hall, "right after she came. Something about it being his turn now. Sister sounds like she knows what she's doing. But yeah, I want to forget that, not pleasant. Not the sounds I wanted to hear after eating, ecspecially knowing who they're coming from." He grinned.
She had kissed him, it had been quick, just on the cheek but he felt it. "We should look up first. Care to help? We can listen to music after once'e we're safe." He called to her room, "unless you don't want me to."
Drake started to comment on what he heard. "Stop that! I do NOT wanna know!" She laughed at him and shook her head, played at covering her ears. "That's just gross!" She tossed a pillow at him from the bed, "I am sure she knows exactly what she is doing." Sienna made a face and shook her head, 'She always has, it's her gift, getting men to eat out of the palm of her hand." She walked back towards him, "Sure, i can help you lock up, what about Bones?" She followed him down the hall, 'and sure, beats laying there alone, and you're alright to talk to, you got good taste in music." She smiled at him, "and , I am sorry, I just didn't wanna go in there alone, just incase I did see something." She glanced at Drake, "you aren't mad, are you?"
Drake caught the pillow and laughed st her reactIon. As she talked about men eating out of her sisters hand he grinned. "Judging on how Sierra was doing al the talking and Johnny was silent I assume he was eating out of some place other than her hand." He laughed and tossed the pillow back at her. " what ever it was sounded like he was doing a good job."
"I heard him come in," Drake said with a nod. Before we left the bar. Must have been a short smoke," he said still grinning. He left the room and slaked down the hall. He didn't know where Bones was, just knew he wasn't outside anymore. Drake walked to the front door of the bar. He locked the front door and closed the shutters.
"Yeah I'll listen to some music. And thank you, Though modern country is good too, so I don't have the best taste." He laughed st himself and finished closing the shutters.
She apologized and he shrugged. "It was fine. What would we have done if you did see something? Besides leave I mean? Probably blush, stammer an apology, then laugh about it later." He shrugged again. "I'm not mad. Let's close the garage door, and that should be every one that we opened."
Shauna Kelly: That helped, thank you
