Chapter Eighteen: Goodbye Kisses
Summary: All the sorts of kisses Stevie Baskara and Zander Robbins encounter over time.
Disclaimer: I don't own HTR. If I did, all of these kisses I plan on writing would've happened.
Stevie shut her locker with a brutal force one afternoon as the few remaining students around her looked at her as if she were crazy. She smiled apologetically them before turning on her heel and stalking towards the band room. She wasn't exactly in the best mood this fine Friday afternoon. Her parents had decided it would be a 'good idea' to travel out to a remote part of the country for the entire weekend. So, that meant she was going to be stuck in a place with no cell phone reception, with her four brothers, all weekend long… may as well just kill her now.
Walking down the hallway, she finally reached the band room and found everyone already set up for rehearsal. Sighing, she placed her bag down on the couch and rushed to the back of the room where she hurriedly plugged in her bass and got her microphone ready.
"Sorry I'm late." She muttered as she finally got her microphone set up. She looked up at her friends and smiled signifying that she was all sorted.
"Alright, Only You Can Be You from the top!" Kacey spoke standing in front of her microphone as the group began their rehearsals for the afternoon.
After rehearsing a majority of their songs, Kevin and Nelson were found practically sleeping on their instruments whilst Zander leant up against the wall, Stevie leant against the banister and Kacey stood in front of her microphone a smile on her face as she still had ounces and ounces of energy left in her. "C'mon guys! Let's go again!" She spoke before turning around and seeing everyone basically sleeping. Just as she groaned, Kevin slid down the side of his drums making a huge noise as he went down. Kacey sighed and rolled her eyes as the remaining three members shot up from their places and their eyes landed on Kevin.
Kevin shot up from his place on the floor and smoothed his hands down the front of his shirt in a cool-like manner. "I'm okay, I'm okay." He said causing Kacey to roll her eyes and click her fingers several times in the faces of her friends.
"Come on, guys! We need to rehearse!"
"Kacey, we've rehearsed enough." Stevie spoke as she placed her bass down and walked over to her friend, placing her hands on her shoulders. "I have to get home soon anyway because I'm leaving at like seven tonight."
"Oh yeah, you're going to no reception land for the weekend." She said pulling a face down at her. "Who am I going to annoy via text or Facebook all weekend!?" She complained as Stevie laughed.
"Annoy Zander." Stevie suggested as she smirked motioning to her boyfriend.
"Hey!" Zander called after her as he walked up to her and threw an arm around her shoulder. "I don't get to talk to you this weekend so you offer me up to be harassed by Kacey." He asked before turning to Kacey. "No offence."
"None taken." Kacey responded in an amused tone as she watched the two interact.
"Aw, is poor baby gonna miss talking to me over the weekend." Stevie fake pouted as she pretended to cry, adding in a sniffle for effect. Zander narrowed his eyes at her causing her to laugh softly. "I'm joking."
"Better be." He mumbled as he walked back over to his guitar.
"Okay, maybe we should finish up, the two dweebs over here are getting restless." Kacey said as three sets of eyes looked in the direction of Nelson and Kevin who were currently their handshake that was considered 'dangerous'. The three of them chuckled at the boys before Kevin was knocked into his drum set and Nelson was knocked into the wall.
"Told you someone could get hurt!" Nelson commented a few moments later, his finger pointing in Zander's direction who rolled his eyes.
"Well!" Kacey clapped, tearing her eyes from the boys and focusing on Stevie. "I'm gonna go, but I'll talk to you Monday," She spoke walking over to Stevie and giving her a brief hug before turning to face Zander. "And I'll probably annoy you on the weekend… or you two!" She smiled turning to the two boys before turning on her heel and walking out of the band room. "Bye!"
"Oh, she can annoy me any time she likes…" Kevin trailed off as he stalked out of the band room after Kacey with swagger in his step. Nelson cried after him mentioning something about a new Furious Pigeons game. Zander and Stevie watched in amusement after their band mates as they laughed slightly.
Zander turned to face Stevie and smiled softly. He had his way over to the couch and motioned for Stevie to come over as he sat down. Once he was seated, Stevie came and sat beside him, gently tossing her legs over his. "What time do you need to go home?" She asked him as he shrugged.
"Whenever. Do you need a lift?" He questioned as he looked down at her from his position, his fingers carelessly playing with a few loose strands on her hair. She shook her head no in response to his question and he nodded.
"Nah, Tim's here late today as well, so he's gonna come get me at like five…" She trailed off looking down at the watch on her wrist. "Which is in like five minutes." She laughed softly and looked up at Zander, a small smile on her face.
"Even though you're only going for like two nights, I'm still gonna miss you, Steves." Zander said in a soft tone that caused Stevie to duck her head and blush. He chuckled at her reaction and lifted her chin up with his hand so she was eyelevel with him. Smiling softly at her, he bent down and pressed a soft, lingering kiss to her lips, savouring the taste of her lips as he would not experience her kisses until Monday.
He felt Stevie calmly respond to the kiss and his hand fell to her hip as he traced small circles over her clothing. Pulling away after a few moments he smiled down at her and pressed another soft kiss upon her lips.
"Ah, seen too much!" A voice called from the door and the two broke apart. Zander chuckled nervously and looked down at the sight of Stevie's older brother standing there. Stevie, on the other hand, just glared at him before throwing a pillow at him. "Oi!" He chuckled as she smirked. "Come on, we need to go." He said and Stevie nodded.
Turning to Zander she smiled and pecked his cheek quickly before jumping up off of the couch and walking towards her bag to grab it. "I'll see you Monday." She said, turning around to face Zander.
He nodded before dropping a small kiss to her forehead. "I'll miss you." He whispered as she giggled.
"I'll miss you too." She responded, looking at him before pecking his lips softly and smiling. She turned on her heel and followed her brother out of the room as Zander watched her walk away.
Pouting, he leant against the back of the couch and sighed.
