The Many Lives of Malerie Varner

Chapter 4

On the street feel the beat

Bass kickin Bruce Lee

Come on every girl just grab a boy

Cherry vodka snow cone

Make a movie on your phone

Kiss the kid born and raised in

South Detroit

Tonight the drinks on me

We’ll watch the stars go blue

Ain’t gonna get no sleep

Buttons on your levi’s about to come loose

Hey kids here we go heavy metal disco

Put your hands up this is love in America

Malibu to Broadway

Dance away the heartache

Blow the world a kiss this is love in America

Ay Ay yeah your dreams are gonna come true

Ay Ay yeah tonight it’s just me and you

Hey kids here we go

Sex, hugs, rock and roll

Fill your cup up this is love in America

Let’s go come on shake your money maker

Let go let me be your honey taker

Let’s go come on shake your money maker

Let go this is love in America

Hey kids here we go heavy metal disco

Put your hands up this is love in America

Malibu to Broadway

Dance away the heartache

Blow the world a kiss this is love in America

Ay Ay yeah your dreams are gonna come true

Ay Ay yeah tonight it’s just me and you

Hey kids here we go

Sex, hugs, rock and roll

Fill your cup up this is love in America

America America America

I danced in the car seat while Andy head banged along with the beat. After the song ended we sat in comfortable silence for a while. I looked out the side at the trees going by and thought about how I had never been this comfortable around anyone before. It's like I didn't need to say a thing and he'd get it.

"Have you ever had a really close friend?" I heard myself ask. I was surprised I had even said it.

He turned to me. His eyes got that far away look that you get when you are thinking hard.

"Yeah, I have. A long time ago. You?" he asked. One arm was on the steering wheel while his other hand was resting on the window. 

"Yeah, but he moved away in before Kindergarten." 

"Oh, so it was a he?" Andy asked wiggling his eyebrows. I hit his arm.

"Yes, but sheesh, it was only kindergarten. But yeah, he was my closest friend. He hung out with me and my friends you met back there. We could talk about anything, and I knew he would listen. And he always called me Mally. I never let anyone but Andy call me that." I paused for a second not sure I should go on. "I thought you were Andy earlier, that's why I called you that, I know its silly, but hey, you can't blame me for wishing." I finished looking down, then at the outdoors again. We sat in silence again, except it wasn't the same. It was awkward. I heard him sigh.

"What if I was?"

Ok. I'm really sorry this took so long to write and upload. Its been so long, I actually forgot my excuse. Well, I went shopping the other day, which was fun, and got my dress for formal... Now only if I had a date. Oh well, its in two months anyway. So , I tried putting up pics for the characters, not working so heres a link to the slideshow I made of them http://s371.photobucket.com/albums/oo155/hellobye113/?action=view&current=a82d97ba.pbw 

I hope you enjoyed this chapter. Ok, now I've seen other authors on here say they won't put another story up until they get 400 votes or something. I don't want to be a jackass but I just want to know if it works so I won't start writing the next one until I get three votes (see its not much to ask for). I'm amazed at how many people have read my story, so thank you people. Ok, I'm not going to bore you any more, bye readers!
