“I’m so sick and tired of being my own arch enemy.” -Abe Parker, Live, Laugh, Love

“We’re the kind of guys you parents told you to avoid…”

The crowd thinks we’re just getting warmed up, getting into place, but they’ll figure it out soon enough.

“Bad influences, little ambition apart from making loud music…”

More start to listen in, a hush starting to swim over the audience.

I turn back and wink at Nyx, who has no business looking so goddamned hot with drumsticks in her hands.

I play one low, long note, sustained. “We’ll stay out all night drinking, sleep in until three. Won’t let nobody tell us, what we’re gonna be…”

I nod my head, cueing everybody and the whole band slams to the downbeat as my fingers start flying over the frets. Hayes takes over the first verse, using all his asshole attitude to command every last person in the audience. They’re completely his right now, screaming for him and demanding he give them more.

Then he does something out of the ordinary, though. After he sings through the chorus, instead of diving into the next verse, he shakes his head and motions to us all to play at half volume, so we do that while keeping the background of the song alive.

Nyx is eyeing him with one eyebrow cocked, keeping a low rhythm going on her snare.

I’m not dumb enough to interrupt whatever tirade he’s no doubt about to go on, but I’m hoping he has more sense than to lay into Nyx in the middle of a show.

Ever since he pulled the stunt at dinner last week with that woman that wandered into our area, him and Nyx seem to be avoiding each other. I kind of miss all the cutting remarks if I’m being honest. The two of them are really entertaining.

So when Hayes pulls up a stool next to Nyx, she just stares at him, seemingly unimpressed. “Did you forget your lines again, Hayes? Pretty sure you wrote this one.”

He smirks. “Nah, not the problem here.”

“Did you have a sudden interest in learning drum kit? Not sure I have the patience to teach you when we’re literally in the middle of something kind of important here. What do you guys think, could Hayes play drums?” The crowd cheers.

He gets behind her and lifts her up, sitting her on his lap. I’m absolutely shocked; Hayes is not a PDA kind of person. And unsurprisingly, Nyx doesn’t drop the beat as Cash and I continue to play our background music.

“There, that’s better, isn’t it?”

She wiggles her ass. “Not really. My normal stool doesn’t have a steel pipe in its seat as part of its features.”

Hayes laughs deeply into the microphone. “If you’re trying to embarrass me, it ain’t going to work, baby.”

“I’m so fucking confused right now.” She looks out to the audience. “Okay, which one of you dared him to be nice to me tonight? I think he’s taking it a bit far, don’t you?”

The audience laughs, some are shouting colorful slurs about what they’d do with a woman like Nyx in their lap.
