Chapter 30

Party

Zareth walked out of his room wearing jeans, a white shirt, and a leather jacket. His usual slicked back hair look. Even his toothpick rested perfectly in his mouth. Danny stood by the door. She wore high heels for once. Black skin tight leggings, white shirt, and a leather jacket. Zareth opened a closet and pulled out two helmets. He smiled that usual bright smile of him.

"Wanna go for a ride on my new motorcycle." He wiggled his eyebrows at her. Danny smiled and held out her hand for the baby blue helmet.

"Then lets go daddo." She took the helmet and walked outside. At least this time its going to be a little alright. She pulled her helmet on and got onto the motorcycle.

The wind oh the feel of the wind on her cheeks. She missed this. She put her ear on Zareths back. She could hear his power source from there still. It was a sound she truly missed.

She sat there waiting to get to their next destination. It was getting dark over the horizon. It was a brilliant purplish pink in the sky, but the air was perfect feeling on her skin.

"You okay babe? You seemed tired?" Zareth called behind him. Danny looked up at him and smiled.

"Oh I'm fine. I just love riding on motorcycles."

"Ah so I'll leave the keys with Dareth then huh? Let him take you around." Danny smiled brightly at him. She loved his considerate nature.

"That would be awesome Zareth thank you." She seemed to brighten up at this. It caused Zareth to smile twice as much.

Zareth parked the bike a block away from Laffy's. He had promised her once to take her out dancing. Last time it got ruined, so tonight they would drink and dance till they couldn't find his bike. Danny loved going to Laffy's their music was always right up their alley. She looked around seeing a bunch of familiar faces, mostly there as usual.

Danny was steered toward the bar and she sat down. She looked at all the options on the back shelf.

"Whatcha want babe?" Danny stared for a moment and then smiled up at him. "Beer..." She said. Zareth narrowed his eyes.

"Oh?" He looked around at the bartender. "Two rounds over here." He said. Moments later they were clanking their mugs together.

"So whats been going on since I've been gone?" He deeply drank from the mug. Danny shook her head.

"Met Skylors girlfriend and well Dareth could probably tell you what happened with that." He felt Dareth shutter in the back of his mind.

"Oh that bad huh?" He asked and she looked a little put off for a second.

"Yeah it was...pretty bad. We were chased around by Chens men, and you know he's not a very good guy and neither was his men."

"Where you hurt?" It was a quick question and his hand on her arm looking her in the eyes.

"Nothing that a shower couldn't handle." Danny giggled patting his hand and drained the mug. Zareth seemed to relax after that.

'Don't worry Zareth I got her.' Dareth said officially. Zareth grabbed hold of Dannys hand and pulled her onto the dance floor her shoes clicked the floor loudly as she was pulled and circled around him.

Danny hadn't fast danced with him before, mostly just swing, and slow dancing. But today it was some Van Halen, and ACDC. Both good bands, and she loved the way Zareth danced with her. The high heels actually helped her reach his shoulders a bit better too.
