Rock of Ages, Forever Pt65
The following evening found them in the ballroom trying to practice. As luck would have it, Sav’s bass equipment wasn’t working properly. Several times he went over to kick it and grumbled under his breath. Joe was having problems hitting some of the notes in Photograph, to the point where he tossed the song to all together. Phil closely observed Joe and Sav, their body language toward each other and the angered stares and glances. Even the tone in their voice, whenever they would say something to each other, screamed of the pending argument.
After finishing one song, Sav commented, “That sounded like crap.”
Phil swiveled on his stool in his direction, “It sounds fine to me.”
“For something we’ve been playing for fifteen years, it didn’t.”
“Don’t forget about his superior hearing, Phil.” Joe smirked. He's probably the only one that thinks it sucked."
“I’m sure it will sound better the next time gentlemen.” Nick said from the back of the room where he was flipping through some papers dealing with the last minute detail for the ball. “So try it again and relax this time. You are all playing like robots.”
“Keep your opinions to yourself, Nick.” Joe said loudly.
“If you want everyone laughing at you at the ball, then so be it.”
“If we sound like crap Nick, it’s because of you.” Joe shot back.
“Why do you say that Mr. Elliott?” Nick said not looking up.
“We would be in the middle of our tour if you hadn’t interfered with our lives, instead, we sat around doing nothing, waiting on Sav to come back.”
“What ever do you mean?”
“You know what I mean. I don’t have to spell it out.” Joe replied heatedly.
“You are the one that chose to wait on Rick. I didn’t make that decision for you.”
“The hell you didn’t! You are the one that had him…!” Joe yelled.
“Knock it off, Joe.” Sav said lowly.
Phil rolled his eyes, propping his elbow on the top of his guitar, the dropped his chin down to wait. He knew they wouldn't get any further today with practice, so he sat back and listened to them.
“Well it’s true and you’re just as much at fault as he is!” Joe loudly said and through his arm out to point at Nick.
Not feeling the need to yell just yet, Sav kept his voice in check, “No, I’m not.”
“You're the one that keep running off every time the need struck you!”
“I did that so I wouldn’t kill any of you or have you suddenly forgotten what I am.”
The veins in Joe's temples bugled out the angrier he got, “How can I? You remind me of it every day!”
Vivian picked at his fingernails, these little matches between them were becoming a commonplace thing of late. Nobody paid any attention to them much any more. Nick continued to flip through his papers. Rick tightened screws on his drum kit.
“What’s gotten into you lately, Joe.”
“You have!” he shot back.
Sav snorted, “Oh come on. What I have ever done to you?”
“I thought you had a prefect memory, Sav.”
“He must have left it in his room last night.” Vivian chuckled.
“Shut up Vivian!” Joe and Sav shouted at the same time.
Phil almost burst out laughing at the surprised look on his face.
“Where do you want me to start?” Joe sarcastically spit out.
“Would it matter? You blame me for every thing that has happened in the past couple years, because of the choice I made to become what I am. You want to know something else Joe? I would do it all over again and not give it a second thought.”
Joe angrily glared at him, “From what I hear in your room every night, I wouldn’t either.”
“Oh I get it,” Sav replied on a breathy laugh. “This is about you for once and not me. I know what you need Joe, to get laid.”
”You don’t know what you’re talking about.” Joe shot back.
“Don’t I! You’re the one that listens every night.”
”You guys can wake the dead with the noise you make.”
“We are dead, Joe.” Sav replied flatly.
“Could have fooled me.”
“Just as dead as that woman from last night. She was great, just your type. To bad you didn’t have her the way I did, her blood was very sweet and exotic.”
Joe stared at him a moment, then said, "I should report your fucking ass to the police for murder."
"Go ahead Joe, report me. Somehow I don't think the police will believe you when you tell them a vampire has been killing people. They would lock you in a physic ward."
"If I'm going crazy, its because of you."
"Don't blame it on me. Your inability to go after what you want and to afraid to, is what is making you crazy."
Joe had enough of his taunts. He dropped his guitar and bolted off his stool toward Sav, hitting him head on. Sav had anticipated his move and was of his stool when Joe collided with him, but it still sent them both backwards, right into Vivian, who hadn’t had time to move out of the way. His hands went to grab Sav as he went by to keep him from falling, but the momentum of Joe’s charge sent them by him. Vivian’s chair toppled over, sending him and his chair over the small raised platform, that sat two feet off the ballroom floor. Sav’s feet caught on Vivian’s legs as he fell, causing him to loose his balance as well. All three men went crashing to the floor.
Joe landed on top of Sav and got in a good punch to his face, before Sav recovered from banging his head on the hardwood floor. Turning his head back to glare at Joe, his eyes were a feral red. He caught Joe’s fist as it came down again and tossed him aside with one hard jerk. Rolling over, he jumped to his feet to rush Joe just as he got up. Sav slammed into him and flew to the wall, he had Joe pinned fifteen feet above the floor, before anyone could blink.
“What are you going to do now Joe?” Sav said between clenched teeth.
Once Joe was able to suck in his breath after hitting the wall, he glanced down at the floor and back at Sav. Gathering himself, he swung his fist up. Catching it in mid air, Sav slammed it into the wall with such force, Joe thought it had broken.
“Go ahead, try the other one. You might find yourself crashing to the floor.”
Joe flinched when the grip on his wrist tightened. Sav saw the flash of fear in his eyes.
“Give in to your fear, it makes the blood taste better.”
Despite the throbbing in his head, Joe was very aware of Sav's hard body pressing him snuggly against the wall. He found his voice and whispered harshly, “You wouldn’t.”
“Don’t push your luck.” Sav shot back, showing his fully extended fangs.
“Richard, what are you doing?” Nick said calmly as he approached them. “Haven’t I taught you better manners than that. Don’t toy with your food.”
“I’m not toying with him, Nick.” he replied, his glare never leaving Joe.
“Then take him and be done with it.” Nick said with a wave of his hand.
“Don’t you do it Sav!” Phil yelled, quickly running to stand below them, then jumping up to try and snag their feet.
Sav raised his free hand, licking his lips to pull in his scent as he trailed his index finger softly up Joe's throat, feeling the fast pulsing of his vein. Struggling with his inner self, Sav recognized the situation for what it was. He was about to take Joe’s life yet again, to try and bring him across. The fear in Joe’s eyes was evident, but there was also something else, something he couldn’t understand. His grip eased on Joe’s wrist, but his body still held him pinned to the wall above the floor, his soft blue eyes returned and he fangs disappeared.
“This will never be over between us.” he whispered. “Not until it is done and you belong to me.”
“Don’t I already belong to you, Sav?” Joe's own voice a soft whisper.
“Not completely, but one day you will.” With that, Sav eased them to the floor. He released Joe and backed away from him. Regret crossed his face at having done this again, perhaps damaging his relationship further with Joe. Turning his back on him, Sav headed for the door, glancing quickly at Nick as he left.
Joe trembled all over as he made his way to a chair. Breathing a sigh of relieve as he sat down. Vivian and Rick busied themselves straightening up the mess.
Nick stalked over to him, his own anger seeping through, “Why do you continue to deny what you want Mr. Elliott?”
Joe glanced up at him. “I don’t know... fear maybe.”
Nick rolled his eyes to the ceiling, then back at Joe, “Fear of what?”
“Change.” Joe replied softly.
“I have seen many changes in my long life. Some for the better and some for the worse. The change you fear is in yourself. You will not be that much different than you are now.”
“Sav is much different than he was before, Nick.”
“That’s because he has not completely accepted himself for what he is. You know what you have to face before you cross over, then you have nothing to fear.”
Joe ran his fingers through his hair, trying to calm down more. "That...that's not what I'm afraid of...crossing over. It...it's what else Sav wants from me."
Nick stood to his full height, just staring down at Joe and getting the meaning behind his words. Brushing it off, left them and went in search for Sav. He found him in his usual place when he had things weighing heavily on his mind. Nick grabbed him to spin him around. “Why did you not take him so he could join us in eternal life.” he said angrily.
“He’s not ready.” Sav replied softly.
“You must bring him across before the change in him becomes to much to bare.”
“I know that.” Sav hissed, then turned away from him.
Nick spun him around again, “You must bring him across soon or I will.”
Not waiting for a response, Nick took to the air and Sav watched him go. He sighed heavily and stared up at the stars. Sitting in his chair, he sipped at the blood wine, letting the hours slip by waiting on Joe to go to bed. Sav wanted to pay him a visit before he went to sleep. Completing his cross over, weighted heavily on his mind and he needed to let Joe know that.
He finally went to his room via the window. Joe wasn’t there yet and Sav settled in the darkest corner to wait more. Joe came in around four a.m. and set about getting ready for bed. He took a quick shower and stood in front of the mirror with just a towel wrapped around him. Taking a few aspirin’s for his headache, Joe towel dried his hair, completely unaware of the predatory eyes that watched his every move.
It took every once of Sav's strength to not go over to Joe and run his hands through his hair, to feel the softness of his skin. Sav shook his head to clear it of such thoughts. He had completely forgotten why he was in Joe’s room when he came out of the bathroom like that.
Pulling on his boxer and tee shirt, Joe climbed into bed and settled in. He took a deep relaxing breath and let it out slowly. Once Sav knew he was asleep from his steady, even breathing, he quietly slipped from his room and went back to his. Nick was waiting for him in bed.
Taking one look at him, Sav knew what he wanted. “Not tonight ok.” he said softly.
“Is something wrong?” Nick asked him.
“No.” came his soft reply.
Sav climbed in bed and Nick tried to pull him against him, but Sav moved away. Nick felt the sting of his rejections and almost demanded that he submit to him, but decided against it. Sav had shut him out and he couldn’t sense anything from him through their bond. He flopped down on the bed to stare at the ceiling until the sun was shinning brightly in the early morning sky.
