’ any good shows tonight ? ’ he asks, looking up at the other as he flicks through a stack of records ( he could use some new spins for the station ! ). ‘ i could use a night off. ’

“ Eh, I don’t know. “ Memphis voice showed distraction. She was flipping through the records before with something like intent without anything behind it. “ I’ve been bad at keeping up with all the who’s recently. I’d ask if you knew, but I know you don’t ... “ she continued with a wry smile.

“You know, I do like the idea of Sadie Hawkins dances, really. It’s great that us girls are encouraged to start taking charge of who we’re going to dances with. But now there’s so much pressure to ask a boy to the dance and well…what if I don’t want to ask a boy?”

“ Ask who you wanna ask, I’d say. For me, personally, the idea of a dance without booze, well ... it really doesn’t get me going. But If you dig it, do what you want with it. You feel? “

“You should see me at night– total hooker material. I mean I can really get these hips moving, I swear.” He said with a laugh and ran his hands through his dark curls. “Uh, my dad was kinda famous.” Jim mumbled, looking at her strangely as he stared at her hand gestures. “Henry Montgomery ring a bell?”

Memphis shot him an up-and-down glance, reigning in her urge to giggle. It was always hard to imagine boys knowing what to do with their hips; especially those who didn’t radiate exuberance or ego or the like. “ Sure, I bet, ” she managed before shaking her head to clear it. “ Sounds like something I’ll just have to witness, though. Hey! It does --- oh my god, yeah, your name plus that bone structure should have totally given it away. ”

“What are you deliberating on?”

“ Which album I’m feeling, of course! ”

Peaches nodded in agreement. “It’s a hard line to balance, but it’s always better if you get a second opinion.”

“ Well, I doubt anyone would complain if you cut it a little deeper, “ Memphis said brandishing the scissors.

Of course, the goofy English girl couldn’t just roll into a new place without showing off her favourite trick. ❝ Hey, hey. Watch this! ❞ It was a silly little thing to get excited over, but she had practiced for months on the road, perfecting the technique.

“ Well, hey, that’s pretty sweet, “ Memphis conceded with a showy shrug and a toss of her curls. And it was a cool trick, there were no doubts; Memphis just couldn’t help but contrary when it was all in the name of fun. “ But find me a cherry or two, and I promise you I’ll have ‘em in the prettiest of knots. “

topherlouis:

“Y’all gonna buy something? We don’t pay for air conditioning for you to just chill in here, you know. Not cool, brother.”

“ It may look like just chillin’ to the untrained eye, but I’m not; I’m deliberating. Better doing with your eyes closed, just try it. ”

“Oh! Good idea!” Peaches reached underneath the counter and came back with a pair of scissors. “You want to do the honors?”

“ If you insist, ” Memphis dropped in a rushed facsimile of a curtsy before reaching for the scissors. “ I’d love to! The thing is, you gotta angle the angle just right, so we’re not breaking any laws here but you get to put your show on. “

“Why would that be considered lucky, Memphis?” He said her name to make sure it’d stick in his head. Jim’s eyes fluttered down at her legs and her short shorts. “You’re not as tan as I thought you’d all be. Sweet.” Jim meant it in the nicest way possible of course– he adored things that didn’t quite fit.

“ Well, Florida’s no place worth a damn unless you’re a grandparent, “ Memphis said, voice a declaration. “ Or a hooker, I guess, and neither of us look like either. Hey! I freckle easy, alright, nothin’ wrong with old Scottish blood --- double hey! I know I don’t know you but, you’ve got a familiar face. ” Memphis’ hands shot out in a quick imitation of finger guns --- a gesture encompassing all of him in their direction --- widening her eyes as she tried to fit his face and name to something tangible.

holly shrugs, flicking the polaroid back and forth in the air as she waits for the color to appear. ‘ it’s just a thing i do. don’t worry about it. i’m sure you look FANTASTIC. ’ memphis was totally rocking the look, holly was absolutely certain that it would be a good one. she bounces on her heels, and hangs the camera over her chest with it’s embroidered strap, lets it rest on her hip.

Her features shifted, coloring impressed and amused in equal measure “ If it’s just a thing you do, seems I need to get some more interesting hobbies. ” Memphis’ hands toyed with the record between them, mindful of it despite her careless actions. She rose on her toes, rocked back. “ There’s something so glamorous about takin’ pictures. Like you cheat time, in a weird way. Plus, you getta rock straps like that, “ she finished with a chin nod.

‘ nah, nothing cool about the flames. but my friend amelié SWEARS he gave the best oral she’s ever had. and she’s been with everyone. ’ holly closes her eyes, and runs her hand alongs the records, counting backwards from ten under her breath. she picks up the one that her index finger landed on at zero. she nods, turning it over in her hands. she taps the surface of the record, it’s a familiar one. putting it back, she bounds over to grab her camera from behind the cashier’s counter. she snaps a picture of the blonde, and carefully shakes the undeveloped polaroid through the dusty air.

Memphis shrugged grandly, a full body motion as her eyes traced over the artwork on a handful of albums under her fingertips; she couldn’t decide if she’d heard them or not, and wasn’t sure she wanted to pull it out entirely. “ Guess that’s gotta count for something, then! Still, if I were a rocker, I’d use all that cash to get a blue-flamed lighter. Getting good at sex is free, ” She shrugged again, smiling as she plucked one of ‘em out and turned around. “ Least, it should be, for the good looking or famous. “ Her voice had raised as she registered the girl was off somewhere, and when she saw for what her weight shifted back. “ Hey! What’s that about, now? ”

#(c.)#(c:holly.)#thats really impressive actually #i love using her tbh but i havent in ages #danielle is such a cutie too

with her bag hanging over her shoulder, holly practically leaps through the doorway of the shop, smiling as the bell above her head jingles. she offers a small wave coupled with a smile that could put stars to shame to the first person she spots. holly runs her fingers along a new section of records and eyes them carefully. ‘ the guess who … you know jim kale once lent me his lighter. ’

Memphis spared a moment to spare a glance, an answering smile, a look of acknowledgment, before turning her attention back to its rightful place: the section of records in question. There was so much here, right here, that she hadn’t seen before! She must have been slacking. She turned herself towards the other girl, angled her body like she was listening though her face stayed examining the record covers on display. “ You don’t say? Anything special about those flames, or what? I’d bet they were blue. No! Green, but like a blue-green. ”

“Yeah–I’m.. I’m Jim.” He nodded, looking around the building at all the faces staring at him. His dad only died months ago– famous rock legend Henry Montgomery. Now his son was standing in front of many people who knew and loved him. “Just thought I would introduce myself.. I’ve never been to Florida.”

“ And I’m Memphis, “ she added, all quiet. No need to use her pipes when the dark haired fellow who entered in front of her was clearly the one being stared at --- though her legs warranted the gawking today, her new shorts were exceptionally short. She walked around to face him, peering up with question-mark eyes. “ Just thought I’d return the favor. Never, huh? Lucky man. ”

“Okay, so who do I have to kill around here to get someone to look at my tits? I cut this v in my new staff t-shirt for a reason. Hello?” She pushed them up even further with her hands. “What’s wrong with them?” Peaches gasped. “Are they sagging? No way!”

“ Oh, they look fine, ” Memphis assured with a raised eyebrow. Her fingers stilled in their idle task of flipping through records, and she leaned forward, adopted a conspiratorial tone. “ But I will say --- a deeper ‘v’ may go a long way, y’know? Go the full mile. Make it obvious how far from sagging they are. “

#(c.)#(c:peaches.)#hey there !!

I’m almost never serious, and I’m always too serious. Too deep, too shallow. Too sensitive, too cold hearted. I’m like a collection of paradoxes.
