Drex walks up, three beers in his hand, and passes two off to Dash and Axle I take it upon lasses, while they discuss party central

As I start taking a few shots, I feel Axle’s eyes on me, even as Drex speaks to him

Eve saunters over with Colleen, and I nod at the, since Colleen did just make my hair awesome earlier It makes me less inclined to slap her for the way she balked at Axle’s scars that day

I lean into his side as I take roup talks about fun stories frouys are all lounging around, watching thehout

I prefer skating to dancing, but with all these people here, it’s unlikely I can skate

“You want to dance?” I ask Axle, nudging him with my elbow

He looks at h a row of hot coals

“I don’t dance”

“Don’t worry about looking stupid It’s just fucking with your clothes on,” I say, patting his chest “You can handle that”

Dash turns his head, laughing into his hand

“I said I don’t dance Not that I couldn’t” Axle returns his attention to Drex, resu the conversation I apparently interrupted

Obviously I don’twe did at the hotel I’m sure they’d take away his surly card if I did

“I’ll dance,” Colleen says to me

She’s been…nice lately Maybe because she knows she pissed me off, and that I’m someone who just ordered a shit-ton of vehicles and that I run a crime family

My bad Next time I skate and rant, I’ll keep the music off so I can whisper-yell at them

“Me too,” Eve chimes in

Drex grabs Eve by the arentle “Stay close”

She nods like she doesn’tbossy

Is Axle that bossy?

I don’t think so I’d have a probleh he does have his bossy uy is allowed to be bossy because they’re not him Totally not hypocritical of me at all
