Aurora - Dave Grohl

Chapter 3

note: I'm sorry in advance for how cheesy this chapter gets towards the end :')

Dave's POV

"So Kurt do you write your own songs?"
I walked in between Eve and Kurt, behind Krist and Shelli on the sidewalk.
"Yeah, I've got a few, but they don't have any drum parts to them because I've never found a drummer"
"Until now" Eve smiled, and Kurt nodded. She seemed really excited about something, the same look on her face as when I told her how I play drums. Did that have something to do with it?

-----time skip-----

We followed Krist down the wooden staircase to his basement, where Eve sat beside Shelli on the floor and I took my place behind the drum kit. The guys decided that they would run through all of Kurt's songs, and I would create drum parts to them as they went along.
"Shall we start with About a Girl?"
Kurt spoke into the microphone on the wall. Krist nodded in response.

Eve's POV

Dave was not lying when he said he got sweaty when playing the drums. It was obvious how tired he was becoming, and they decided to take a quick five minute break before continuing. I watched as he stood up from his seat, taking off his sweaty shirt in the process and throwing it to the ground. My eyes bulged as I admired his toned arms and stomach. He took a seat on the floor beside me.
"I'm fucking boiling"
"I noticed" I laughed.
"So, you like what you see?" Dave joked, standing up and pretending to pose as if he was on the cover of a fitness magazine.
"Definitely" I tried to sound sarcastic, as I was telling the truth.
"Oi! Lovebirds! Do you want a beer? Kurt needs to go home to finish some project and we can't practice without him"
"Sure" We said in unison.
"Oh, and you can stay over if you want, my folks are out on business until Friday and my brother's away at college"
"Ok"
"Fine by me"
We then followed Krist up the stairs into his kitchen. I followed Shelli into the living room while the guys agreed to get our drinks.

Dave's POV

"Krist"
I made him hang back for a second.
"What?"
"Is Eve, you know"
"Lesbian" He butted in. I chuckled.
"No, is she single?"
"Oooooohhhhhhh" Krist practically shouted.
"Shut up! They'll hear!" I hissed.
"Alright,calm down man. Yeah, she is"
"Ok, thanks man"
"Anytime".
I started to walk towards the living room.
"Oh and Dave?"
"Yeah?"
"Don't break her heart, ok? She's my friend, and I will beat you to a fucking pulp if you do" He smiled afterwards, somewhat reassuringly.
"I won't, I promise"

-----time skip-----

Eve's POV

Dave and I sat awkwardly beside eachother as Krist and Shelli made out on the sofa next to us. He still was shirtless, as he didn't want to put his old, sweat-drenched shirt back on.
They were completely wasted, and probably had no idea we were even there.
"I've had enough of this" I whispered to Dave.
"Krist?"
No reply.
"Krist!" I practically pulled him off of Shelli.
"Dave and I are tired, where can we sleep?"
"Um, you two will have to take the couches. My family have started locking their rooms when they go out ever since I stole $20 from my dads wallet once. Shelli and I will take my room" He spoke, winking at Shelli. Krist's room was on the same floor as this, so there was a door leading to his room, which they went through.

Dave's POV

I stood up and laid down on the other couch.
"10/10 for hospitality, Krist, not even one blanket or something for us"
Eve laughed.
"I know, I'm freezing"
"Hey, at least you have a shirt on!"
"It was your choice to take it off!"
"Yeah,but.."
I stopped mid sentence and looked at Eve.
"Are you fucking kidding me" She sighed.
Krist and Shelli were fucking in the room right next door to us and we could hear everything. I mean, Krist has a really loud voice normally, so imagine what he's like in the bedroom.
"What do we do?"
"Let's just go upstairs, I'm not sitting and listening to that"

I followed Eve up the stairs, as I didn't know where I was going.
"Aren't all of the bedrooms locked?"
"Yeah but I thought we could just sit in the hallway until they were finished, but I guess not"
You could still fucking hear it. All the way up the stairs, that's how loud they were.
"Let's just sit in the bathroom and shit the door, that might help?" I suggested.
"Ok"
We went into the bathroom, shutting the door behind us. I sat on the edge of the bathtub and Eve sat on the toilet seat. The sound was muffled now, but you could still sort of hear it.
"Come on, let's pass the time, tell me about yourself" It was a shit idea, but anything to pas the time.
"I'm not telling you my fuckin biography!" She laughed.
"Come on, it will be fun!"
"Fine. My name is Eve Jennifer Gordon, I was born on the 1st of August 1969. I have a younger sister named Grace, my mom and dad are still together, surprisingly, I try to play guitar and I can't sing for shit. Your turn"
"My name is David Eric Grohl, I was born on the 14th of January 1969. I have a sister named Lisa, I live with just my mom, I play drums and guitar and I can sort of sing, and that's pretty much - wait"
I put a finger up to my lips to silence Eve.
"I think they've finished"
"I'll go down and have a listen to make sure, stay her" she said.

A couple of minutes later, she was back.
"I'm pretty sure they've started round two by the sound of things, let's just try to sleep in here"
"Where? In the tub?!"
"Do you want to go downstairs and listen to that?"
I shook my head.
"Ok, you go this side, and I'll go this side"
We climbed awkwardly into the tub.
"I'll put my legs this side , and yours can go over here"
Once we were both wedged uncomfortably into the tub, we settled down and tried to sleep.

Eve's POV

About 10 minutes had passed, and neither of us had slept.
"Eve?"
"Yeah?"
"This sounds really awkward, and you can say no, but do you mind if we kind of, huddle up a bit? I'm freezing here"
He was still shirtless, not that I was complaining. I smiled.
"Of course"
I tried to keep my cool but I was honestly dying inside.
"Ok, so you just go in between my legs"
We both made eye contact and giggled at the sexual innuendo.
I stood up and sat down on the tub between his legs, resting my head on his chest. He put his arms around me and nuzzled his head in my hair.
"Eve, are you ok? Your hearts going pretty fast there"
"I'm fine. I'm just really happy" I smiled.
I felt him smile back into my hair, and I was asleep in moments.
