CHAPTER 6: Night before
The new day came with the pounding of the Carters' front door. With a yelling of some words, Steve threw the same clothes on that he had worn just the night before. Nearly falling down the stairs, he made it to the bottom and the door in record time, only to find that it was his wonderful sister and nextdoor neighbor Linda, awaiting her story.
"Oh.. it's you.." Steve said with quite a smirk as he turned the latch and let the door swing open.
"Oh well good morning sleeping unbeauty." Linda rebutted, sharp as ever with her sassiness.
"So I guess you're ready for the bit about last night, huh?"
"Thats about the way of it, yes."
"Well I have to change so you'll just have to wait down here."
"Honey, if you have something I haven't seen before, then..."
"Alright...."
Steve led the way to his bedroom, which Linda knew by heart. And he changed like as if Linda had always seen his skinny white naked body millions of times, and it was no big deal. In fact, he only blushed once untill Linda reminded him that she had seen bigger and better.. good ole Linda.
"Alright.." He finally started while still zipping up his fly. "Where should I start?"
"How about from when you first sat down and I kept walking on?"
"Ok. I was listening to your usual ranting.."
"Ranting?!"
"Do you wanna hear this or not? Good. You had just finished.. talking when a figure that must have been following us or something stopped and started speaking. I knew right away who it was, afterall, it was that very bench that started it all."
"No.. was it?"
"Yea, it was John Dixon in the flesh. I can't even remember what words if any were said, but next thing I knew, his hands were on my face and his lips were on mine. God, it felt so good; especially after so long of wanting to do that. After he kissed me, I could see a huge change in him, he was no longer an older man like me, he was the Johhny that I fell in love with nealy 6 and a half years ago. I couldn't help it.. I grabbed him back and just held him tight to my chest..."
"You didn't..."
"Well what was I supposed to do Linds? It was all still the fact that I just got back into town, and everything else.. I hadn't seen him in forever...thanks.." Linda got another tissue ready as Steve discharged into the one she just handed him.
"Steve, what happened then?"
"Well, we didn't screw, if that's what you mean. We walked back to his car, hand in hand and he drove me home. He wants to see me tonight."
"Are you going to do it?"
"I dunno Linds..I really don't know.."
==============================================
Mark had been driving around Basingstoke for hours trying to find Steven, when finally he gave up and returned to his new home. Waiting in the door was Seven and Wendy.
"Where have you been... looking for something?"
"Found it.." Mark said quickly.
"Steve got tired of you picking him up, so he just walked on over."
"Alright, lets just get down to business then..Wendy if you would.."
Wendy walked to the table and Mark and Steven both followed her there and respectively took a seat. "We have an opportunity on the table here to make some money and to meet that pact that we all made before we graduated."
"Whats on the table?" Steve said as he started groping around the table smilling.
"We're serious here Steve.."
"Sorry.."
"Given light of your award winning stories and our degrees from univerity, we have been offered a spot in the Basingstoke Review. We'd have to come up with three stories per week, so it may get a bit intense..."
"Ok, let's do it.."
"Do you mean it Steve?" Mark said with a quick smile over to his wife.
"Yea, why not."
