Chapter 17 â Parade
A few rays of morning light crept through a crack in the curtains, waking Anise. She sat up, stretched, and stared at the far wall. A day wandering the city followed by a night out, lots of sweaty dancing, and enjoying some sweaty activities of a rather different nature had taken a toll on her body.
Nevertheless, she made a supreme effort to clamber out of bed and visit the bathroom, then poked Lisa until she sat up. âMorning!â
Lisa nodded. âMm, youâre right, it is.â
âYouâre playing that gig tonight, right?â
âAt Central, yeah,â Lisa said, managing to focus on the second try. âItâs the biggest club in Slogh, fits around five-thousand people in the main stage area. Nothing too major.â
âNothing major? Lisaâ¦â
âHey, from my point of view five-kay is pretty sedate,â Lisa said, laughing in a manner Anise found intensely attractive; an assured and measured sound indicating extreme self-confidence, but never devolving into arrogance.
âIâll take your word for that,â Anise said, figuring Lisa wasnât just being coy. It wasnât difficult to imagine her playing for hundreds of thousands of people, so five thousand really would be sedate for her.
Lisa chuckled at this, then jumped out of bed to grab a quick shower. Returning, she sat on the edge of the mattress to dry her hair.
âSo whatâs the plan for today?â Anise asked, sitting behind her lover, cross-legged in the middle of the mattress.
âYou like flowers?â Lisa asked, raising her voice over the noise of her dryer.
âSure.â
âIn that case, youâll enjoy today. Thereâs a big flower festival and parade Slogh holds once a year, and today is it.â
âThisâll be the thing the person you want me to meet is involved with?â Anise said, stroking her fingers through Lisaâs hair, getting in the way of drying, not that Lisa minded.
Closing her eyes and emitting a pleased moan at the hair fondling, Lisa made a vague okay symbol. âOne and the same.â
âOh⦠is this festival why youâre playing a big gig tonight?â
âSure is. Most of the clubs have a special event of some sort for the parade,â Lisa said, switching the dryer off and placing it to one side.
Anise swiped the hairbrush and spent a while brushing her partnerâs hair, shifting around to sit with her legs to Lisaâs sides. âThis is something I seriously need to do for Isla one day soonâ¦â she murmured.
âYouâll be pouncing on her the moment weâve finished our fun, I presume?â Lisa said.
The brushing stopped. âYou heard that?â
Lisa pointed to one of her ears. âIâve got really good hearing.â
The brushing resumed. âI want to, more than anything. I love her so much it hurts, but I also donât want to push her away. Just need to give her the time she needs.â
âBelieve it or not, I do understand how you feel.â
âYou do? Um⦠Mira, maybe?â Anise hazarded.
âNope,â Lisa said, shaking her head. âWell⦠yeah, sheâs my best friend and I love her to bits, but no, not in the way you mean. No, I mean the lovely girl weâre off to see today.
