THE DICK (open)

Mike Futures leaned on the fender of his battered Ford. He tapped out an out of state cigarette out of the pack. He swore for the millionth time he was going to quit. It just never seemed to happen. Mike had been on the road for two days. He was hungery and tired, but more then anything else he was road wary. He pulled over to clear the cobwebs from his mind and to look at something besides the endless ribbon of concrete he had driven through. It was a sorely need break.
He was on a county road that ran next to a small lake. He had parked under a tree to keep the sun off his face, now the sun was fading and casting shadows across the green carpet of grass that layed out in front of him. A breeze off the lake gave him a chill. And he starts to look around. He straightens himself up and walks over to lake edge to take a look at the water. He notices a small oil slick riding on the little waveletts that are caused by the breeze over the water.
He realizes that it is almost dusk and the new found darkness is surrounding him like a cloak. Soon he would be able to see only the darkness, and hear the lapping of the water around his side of the lake. He turnes and heads back to his car and crushes his cigarette with his shoe on the ground near his Ford. He walks up to the car door, but resists opening it. He crosses his arms a places his chin on the intertwined fingers and leans on the roof of the car.
It is dark now and Mike has yet to move from his temporary lakeside camp. He watches as the moon starts to cast a silvery glow over the landscape. His thought are interupted by a splash of light that cut through the darkness at the far end of the grassy feild. The sound of music echoes just for second off the trees. He had found civilization after all and it took the darkness to clue him in. Isn't that the way it goes some times. He thinks.
He lifts himself off the roof of the car, and slowly walks toward the light he had seen from the lake. As he gets closer he can hear the music much clearer now and there are beer neons lighting up the place. The LAKE SIDE B & G. He opens the front door and walks in.

Lake Side B&G

Mike walks in the front door, and almost turns around to leave, he's hungry and decides to stay. The place is dimmly lit a cloud of cigarette smoke hoovers over the low ceiling. The door closes with a clatter. A few locals turn their heads to check the noise most just study their drinks like they were exam papers, quietly and brooding. Mike walks over to the bar and finds a stool and pulls his butt up on to it. He looks down the bar and waves a couple fingers at the bar tender. The bar tender nodds and shuffles slowly down toward Mike. "Whaz chew wvant boody?" the bartender grunts in broken english.
Mike closes his drooping eye lids for a second andlooksat the bartender. "A breath mint, a beer, and a menu!"

Kelsey was also working behind the bar and watched as Mike walked in.She smiled to herself and listened as he told the other bartender what he wanted.

Kelsey filled up a mug with beer and grabbed a menu.She walked over and nudged her way in front of the other bartender.

"I got this one."

Kelsey looked at Mike, while she reached in her pocket for a mint and placed it in front of him.She tossed her head so that her long brown hair caught in the light and shined beautifully and her green eyes were sparkling with delight.

"My the veiw of the lake inproves by the minute." Mike takes a drink of the beer, its cool and refreshing. He opens the menu and looks down the list of meals, he looks up from the menu. "Tell me doll, what is the difference between the blue plate special and the chef's special it doesn't say? What time does this place close? and when do you get off? I love the moonlight, don't you? My what green eyes you have, like emerald.

"Easy Killer. One question at a time."

Kelsey smiles and leans on the bar, cleaning a glass.

"The chef adds something special to the meal for the chef's special. This place closes at 11. And that's when I get off. Thanks for the compliment."

She stands back up.

"Are those the answers you wanted?"

"Ok sweetness I'll be right over there!" Pointing to a booth behind me near the front. "And sweetness I'll have the Chef's special if you come with it!" I move over to the booth and carry my beer with me. I stop and look at her. "You forgot the moonlight,sweetness do you love the moon light?" I slide into the booth and take off my hat and put it on the bench seat next to me. I lean back in the booth and look at the lady bartender and give her a smile. "Nice very nice!" I mouth at her. I tap out another cigarette and light it. I might as well its only 9:15 pm. Long wait till 11 pm. Funny how things happen. I think.

Kelsey gets his food and walks it over to his table.SHe sits it down and grabs his cigarette. She takes a hit off of it and puts it back between his fingers.

"I love the moonlight."

She smiles devishly as she turns around and heads back behind the bar.

Delightfull

As she brings over my food I notice her name tag KELSEY for the first time. Her uniform if you can call it that was well used and frayed at the edges. What had been white piping around her blouse was a dull grey, the rest was dark charchole black, hard to say if it was black
and had faded from repeated washing or that was the true color.
Her hair framed her face like brown drapes in a high class parlor room you see in the movies. She has a sweet smile and strong powerfull even dangerous green eyes. I look up at her as I stab my food and get the feeling she's the one having the meal not me.

time slides by

I finish my beer and food and push the empty plate away from me and lean back in the bench seat. I look at my watch 10:15, still some time till closing time. I get up and put a $10 bill under the plate. That should cover every thing. The Chef special was $5.95 and the beer $1.50 plus tip. yeah that should cover it.
I look at Kelsey "I'll be back at closing time, sweet thing!" and go out the door and into the night.

Amanda loved moonlit nights out here in the dark she could get away really get away there was not need for falseness or good conversation all she had to do was lay back float on the water and let the breeze carry over her.

That was exactly what she planned on doing tonight.

Slipping her jeans down her legs and folding them she placed them on the rock next to the lake. After that she pulled her tank top up over her head, folding and placing that on her jeans.

Slipping off her sandals she slolwy waded into the water pulling her lounge behind her. Nothing better then floating (on a lounge) and sipping cool bear to take your mind of the heat and depression of small town USA.

Amanda ran her fingers over the water as a gentle breeze fluttered through her waist length brown hair. The sky she thought was a perfect reflection of her saphire eyes tonight.

In the back ground she could hear the music from the local bar and she hummed to the tone sipping her beer and smiling content to enjoy the nice cool night.

lady of the Lake

Mike walks down the road back to his car. The moon plays hide and seek behind to clouds. Making the walk darker then lighter as the clouds open for the moon light. Mike reaches his car. He is thinking of changing his shirt to something more fresh for his return trip to meet Kelsey. He takes off his jacket and shirt he happens to look out on the lake. A body in a lounger is floating across the surface of the lake. As the breeze mores the lounger he can clearly see it a woman floating on the water. She must be the Lady of the Lake! You got to love this place. Mike thinks to himself.

Amanda floated the waves gently rocking her, the music playing in the back ground and the cool beer all making her almost wish there was someone around for her to share the almost clear night with.

Slowly she drug her hand through the water making little patterns with the tips of fingers sighing as she was no longer content here on the lake alone.

Desiding that perhaps a swim might make her feel alittle better she put her beer in the holder and slid off the lounge sliding into the cool clear water, letting the liquid darkness settle in around her.

Swimming towards the shore she suddenly noticed a car parked by the road beneath a tree. Not sure if it was real or not, she slowly started to swim towards it.

not a lake monster

Strange thing happen too me some times. I step away from the car looking out at the lounger it is empty now and the woman is swimming right at me. I wish I had a towel to offer her. I just never found a need before now to have one. She moves closer and closer the moon outlines her quite well in the water. She is no monster that is for sure!

Swimming towards the car Amanda stops as she draws close enough to see that there is a man standing by the car. Just mere feet from the shore she debates if she should get out of the water or swim away.

Standing the water drops from her body, now exposed from the waist up she looks at him waiting to she if he well do anything. Letting a smile spread across her lips she watches as the moon slides back out from behind the clouds shining down on her almost like a halo.

Lowering her head she begins to walk forward taking tentative steps towards the stranger.

funny how thing happen

You know if I have to go back to the office and tell this story to anyone they would tell me to stop drinking. I know it was just one beer but this is out of the movies, it just doesn't happen, at least not to me. Well what do you do when a topless woman walks up to you inthe middle of the night. Lake water reflecting off her body. And what a body. What can a guy say ,but.
"Cigarette?" I ask calmly as possible tapping one out.

Smiling up at him Amanda desides that he is harmless.

"Cigarette?" I ask calmly as possible tapping one out.

Stepping fully out of the water aware that is has nothing but a thong on she smile, "sure, i would love one."

Reaching out she gently rubbed her hand down the side of his jeans drying it off "you don't mind do you"

She smiled a half sweet half seductive smile as she took the smike.

"I would offer you a beer but they are floating in the middle of the lake."

I'd offer you a beer

"I would off you one, but you would have to put your top back on and I wouldn't want you to go through all that trouble just for me, besides the lounge up the roadwill be closing soon." I answer evenly.

"Um yes the bar, not my scene but i do like the music it provides for my evening floats."

She smiles at him, then takes a long drag of the smoke blowing out perfect little oooo's.

"don't suppose you care to take off those clothes and join me in the lake for a beer."

She says almost sweetly as she looks up at him through half lowered lashes.

swim.......

"I think a polar bear lady like your self woulds welcome that. I'm not from arround here, I do have a blanket in the back of the car where we can spead out on the grass.

She smiled at him what to do, go back to her beer and her swim or lay in the grass with a handsome stranger.

"Well if I am going to lay with you i should introduce myself.....Amanda" she put her hand out to shake his.

"And you are?"

"Um sounds like my kind of place only I think floating on a lake in piece and quiet might be out of the question there."

Flicking her smoke she smiles at him.

"So how bout that blanket?"

Yeah the brown shirts (the local cops) frown on that. Men have to wear shirts too! Overly civalized if you ask me. Thats why I like working in the field it more ah relaxing.

Oh yes the blanket. I turn and open the back of the Ford and pull a large beach blanket out of a plastic bag. I carry it over by the water and spread it out.

Amanda smiles at him, and walks over sitting down she leans back on her hands.

"So you have to wear a shirt, um well that sucks, big time, I guess legally I do to,but my uncles a cop so I could just get him to bail me out, besides everyone around here knows my family and wouldn't bother me. I am kind of hands off."

She sighs at the thought of her family but brushes the thoughts from her mind.

"So what brings you to the area?"

Laying down on the blanket. "Are you hands off to me too? I would not want your uncles dragging me off to jail, thats bad for business."
