Something More?

She just sat there, curled up in my lap, her head resting on my chest. I wrapped my arms around her, completely content. It’s funny how much simple human contact can affect you. But not sexual contact, just the bliss of gentle contact. The gentle scent of lilacs wafted from her luscious black hair, and when I looked down I could see a subtle smile grace her features. Eventually, though, the moment had to come to an end, and Celestia pulled away from me to return to her seat.
“So, when do you guys go on tour?” Crap.
“Yeah, about that… The thing is, we’re supposed to start our tour in three days. We’re going to perform in LA then hop in the bus and head to the next concert location.”
Celestia shrugged her shoulders. “Ok, I’ll go pack my stuff. I assume I will be signing a contract at some point along the line?”
“Oh, right. John gave me the papers, here.” I pulled the folded pages from within my leather jacket and handed them to her. After a few minutes of reading the contracts, Celestia pulled a pen out of her bag and signed them.
“So, what should I expect on tour?”
“Well, we spend a good amount of time in the bus and at venues. Theres also the occasional party which is always fun. It’s not as big a deal as some people make it out to be, we sit on a bus and act like idiots.”
“Ok. Parties, yay.” Her tone was laced with sarcasm.
“Why? You don’t like parties?”
“It’s not that I don’t like parties, it’s that I don’t like some of the assholes that show up at parties. I’m not the best when it comes to interacting with other humans, especially when things are beyond my control.”
That makes sense, as long as I’ve known her Celestia has never been one to charge forward blindly.
“Don’t worry, with your kickass attidude none of the assholes will stand a chance. Plus you’ll always have me there to back you up.” I gave her a playful wink, and it seemed to successfully dispel the doubt from her mind.
“What should I bring and where will I be during your performances?”
“Bring some normal clothes and some badass clothes. Oh, and pajamas, essentials, etcetera. As for where you will be, you will probably be in the staff or VIP sections during performances. That cool with you?”
“Yeah. But once again, my version of badass is a katana and a trench coat. Oh, I guess I could also bring a mini UV lamp just for the heck of it.”
“That’d be pretty cool, we don’t have any other glowing staff members.”
“Oh, ha ha. Very funny wise guy. Anything else I should bring?”
“If you have any medications you think you will need then it would be wise to bring those.”
“Ok, I have to go.”
“Where?”
“To tell Ai! This is an amazing opportunity that I didn’t even know was out there, and Ai’s my best friend. Thank you for this Andrew.”
With that she grabbed her bag and headed out, leaving me to think about what tour was going to be like with her there. I hope Ash doesn’t do anything stupid.
