“That’s… a lot of wood.” Todd blinked at the pile, rocking back onto his heels with a resigned sigh. “Lance…”
“Get me a drink,” Lance cut him off, shoving a handful of dollars at Todd. “And a hot dog.” He glanced at the huge pile of wood, mostly junk items like old signs and broken tree limbs, piled in the concrete square between buildings. He had serious doubts as to the fire-safety of the situation but figured it was not his problem at that moment.
“Lance, dude, listen…” Todd took a tentative step closer so he could speak more quietly. “This don’t look right, you know?” He nodded in the direction of the red-jacketed FoH members and bounced on his toes nervously. “They’re lookin’ kind of rough, you know?”
“Todd…”
Rogue sighed. “C’mon,” she said, tugging Todd along by his elbow. “I’m hungry too.” She led Todd away perforce, pulling him towards the entrance to the food court type area the college had given over to mass marketed fast food chains and dubious sandwich vending machines.
“Marie,” he hissed once they were out of Lance’s earshot, “this ain’t right. That’s one huge fucking fire for this tiny space!” He twisted free of her grasp and practically stomped to a vending machine, shoving money in as he fumed. “I don’t know what the fuck sort of hard on Lance has about this but damn…” He scooped the cold soda out of the receptacle and eyed the slowly turning array of food in the nearest machine warily. “They just fucking insulted her, you know?”
“So you’re not big into chivalry?” Rogue asked, selecting a hot chocolate from one of the other machines, wincing as the loud whirring started up. She had better things to do, she thought, than sneak out of class and spend the afternoon at this rally, waiting for God only knew what. She wished fervently that Lance would come to his senses and let them go home but, as of yet, he had yet to relinquish the car keys. “Did I tell you I think I saw Fred the other day?” she asked by way of topic change.
“Huh?” Todd was poking a slightly dirty finger at the grayish hotdog, wondering if food poisoning were imminent and halfway hoping it was. If Lance had the shits, he thought, they’d have to leave then.
“Thought I saw him ‘round Food Circus,” she shrugged. “Looked like he was waitin’ on someone.” She carefully removed the tiny paper cup from the slot on the hot cocoa and coffee dispenser and blew on it, trying to get it cool enough to sip.
“Huh.” He glanced out the large glass window to see where Lance was, frowning when he could not see him. “Damn it…”
“Todd, calm down,” Rogue groaned. “He just went around to the other side of the wood pile.” In truth, she did not like being this close to the Friends of Humanity on purpose. She had no idea what the rally was going to be about other than the superficially obvious but she had a strong feeling that they were not going to be the guests of honor once they were found out. “Look, if you’re really this nervous about it, let’s tell Lance we’re going to call a cab and go home.”
“Aw, you’re not going to do that before our meeting, are you?” a booming voice called across the small alcove of vending machines. A tall, broad-shouldered man who looked nigglingly familiar to the two teenagers was approaching quickly, his red jacket bearing the Friends of Humanity logo as he stuck out a hand to shake theirs. “Graydon,” he introduced himself. “You were pointed out to me earlier but one of my interns,” he addressed Todd. “Said they’d invited you and your friend out there personally.” His eyes swept over Todd, looking for something and apparently finding it, judging by the sudden, sharp smile on his face. Turning his attention to Rogue, he nodded at her green, opera-length glovers. “Isn’t it too cool out for satin?”
She raised a brow, tucking her hands under her arms. “Personal preference. You the head of this group here?” she asked, indicating the red jacketed youths swarming over the wood pile and the square, apparently putting the final touches on the coming bonfire.
Graydon smiled proudly. “I started it up myself a few years ago after a long talk with my father,” he said with a hint of irony that Rogue could not place. “Todd, right?” he said, ignoring Rogue now. “Your friend Lance out there is really full of questions!”
Todd blew out a harsh breath. “Or somethin’,” he muttered, sidling closer to Rogue.
A brief, deep silence fell. The gray sky outside lent a gloomy air to the entire proceedings. Rogue could feel Todd’s body tense next to hers and she wondered what to do next. Graydon looked horribly familiar to her but she knew she had never met him before. Something about his face though, his build, struck her as someone she should know. “Well,” she finally broke the quiet, making both males twitch slightly, “it’s been great an’ all but Todd was ‘bout to take me home.” She offered a thin smile and pressed her palm to her belly. “Woman troubles an’all.”
Graydon’s expression became hollow behind his smile. “Oh, I think you’d be better off staying. Tonight’s very special,” he added, slipping a hand through Rogue’s elbow and starting to lead her out of the alcove, Todd clinging to her other arm. “You really should stay and see what’s going to happen. You’ll find it… enlightening.” - You need to be logged in to leave a review for this story.You need to be logged in to leave a review for this story.
