Shelly stood, holding Brody’s hand. “Do you mind if I stay at Brody’s tonight? Chase can drop us there, and then take you back to my apartment.”

“Of course I don’t mind. You don’t have to ask my permission.”

“Goodnight, bitches.” Tina hugged me. “Don’t be a stranger.”

“Please call so we can hang soon, okay?” Kenzie was next to hug me.

“Sure.”

Shelly, Brody, and I waited for Chase as the rest of the bar cleared out. Two girls stood next to the stage trying to talk to Chase. They were both blonde, one tall and one short.

“Look,” Shelly pointed. “Let’s get closer so we can hear what they’re saying.”

“I don’t want to get up until I absolutely have to,” I whined. “I haven’t been out in a while and I forgot how exhausting it is.”

“They looked like they got raped by a Macy’s makeup counter.” Shelly’s face was twisted in disgust.

They were wearing a ton of makeup. I wondered if Chase found either one attractive.

“Look at Chase,” Shelly continued, reading my mind. “He looks completely uninterested, and they just keep on talking.”

“Maybe we should go save him,” Brody agreed. “He’s barely even looking at them while he packs up.”

They both looked at me expectantly.

“Fine,” I grumbled. As we got closer, I could hear their conversation.

“You were so good tonight,” the short one said.

“Yeah. So good. You have an amazing voice,” said the taller blonde.

“You should totally be famous,” the short one said.

“Thanks,” he replied without looking up, wrapping up the cord to the microphone. His eyes lit up when I stopped next to them. “You guys ready?”

“Sure, unless you’re not finished with your conversation here.” I looked at the girls and leaned towards them. “Wasn’t he good tonight?”

“So good,” the short one answered, while the other nodded fervently. They were completely clueless.

Shelly buried her head in Brody’s chest to hide her laughter.

I smiled at Chase innocently. “You’re just so good.”

He shot me a look, and tossed his keys to Brody. “Why don’t you pull my car around front? I’m all finished here, just have to carry this out to the van.”

I turned to follow them when Chase grabbed my hand. “Walk with me.”

The girls looked disappointed as we walked past them.

I giggled. “What’s wrong? You didn’t want to have a threesome with Tweedle dumb and Tweedle dumber?”

“Hardly.”

“Why not? It would have been so good,” I mimicked.

One corner of his mouth turned up.

“Dumb and blonde. Keeping the stereotype alive.” I shook my head. “Shelly’s sleeping over Brody’s tonight. Do you mind dropping them off before taking me back to her place?”
