  • The time went slow that afternoon, for Lurch. By 5 pm he was ready to chuck it all away. Stevie had been incesant all afternoon. You better show up Lurch..you leave me hangin with these people and that will be it, I'm warning you...Stevie i have to go over to the bar..I own the damn place. It won't fall down around you in one night Lurch. OK....he shouted at her..Some last minute bagain hunters stepped back from her stall...Stevie just looked at them...dismissing Lurch's outburst...I'll be there at 7pm...best I can do...OK 7 then, Stevie had to back down otherwise Lurch would have stood her up, and she knew it. She could push him so far but knew his limits...and after all it was her that had invited Gates and his Lady, she had been watching the exchange and thought it might be funny to invite them...not realising that they would actually accept. Not knowing Stevie or Lurch...but what was done was done. She couldn't change had she wanted too. Lurch was busy packing Stevie's boxes away in her trailer..It would be left at the Fair ground till the next day when he'd swing by in his truck and hook it up and take it too her place.

     

    By 5.30pm she was on her way home, and Lurch heading the opposite direction to his bar out on 476...Stevie rounded the corner going into her street, before she arrived at her driveway she could see a shovel parked in her drive, near the house and two people sitting on the steps..with a case of beer between. A few empties were present as she rolled down the drive. Coming to a stop..she kicked down her stand and sat looking at the two...Gates held up a can..she nodded and he threw one her way..garbbing it out the air she had the top ripped off and was drinking from the can in one swoop. Thanks I needed that...So where is Lurch asked Gates? Oh he'll be here, about 7pm...Oh? said Gates...yeah he owns a bar out on 476..I know that place...said Gates, so thats who owns it..nice place been meaning to go in sometime...Stevie knew better but she couldn't help herself...

    Say why don't you go surprise Lurch, meanwhile I'll need to fix some stufrf up here , and have a shower...maybe Alana might like one too...and we can talk girl stuff, Just bring Lurch home by 7 what do you say? Sounds good...what do you think hun...oh why not...said Alana .....Gates was off the porch in a flash...7pm see ya then.... The last Stevie saw of Gates was a blurr heading down her street...Stevie looked over at Alana..both women smiled knowingly....
