“Damnit Sky! This is inedible now!!” Steve shouted, before hitting the edge of the cooking sheet that the girl was holding, sending burned coquettes flying at her face. “Clean this mess up and start again! Don’t forget them this time.”
Steve patted the girl’s head gently as a sort of consolation prize for being berated and humiliated for her simple mistake. She wore a simple black leather collar from which a spare key dangled playfully between her collarbones.
The house had been in the Connor family for a few generations now, Steve was just the newest incarnation of his family to move in. They’d lived there together for about 5 years now, right after Steve finished culinary school. It was 4 years ago that they gave Sky her key. After that spare keys became highly coveted artifacts and their little stable as well as their reputation grew. The legend of Trap House was born.
Tonight was going to be the LVHS Senior Prom, which meant that Steve’s 4th annual “Morp Afterparty” would be in full swing by the time the dance ended. Morp was a pretty dated concept in Steve’s mind but the attitude behind it was timeless. Unchaperoned adolescents feeling like rebels, going against the grain and indulging in activities Mommy and Daddy might not agree with. A huge tent rigged with lighting and sound equipment was already set up in the back yard, the girls had sexy little costumes already picked out and J.J. had decorated the house with the perfect ambiance of balloons, streamers and sarcasm. Andrew had even set up a photo area on the second floor between their two rooms, he couldn’t wait to see how that little area developed (Pun fully intended).
Just about everything was perfectly ready for the big bash except for Steve’s trademark appetizer spread. They hadn’t even finished the canapés to go around the ice sculpture, never mind about the hot appetizers that the girls would be passing on trays.
Truthfully it was Steve’s own laziness that was to blame for the catastrophic rush that was on now and not Sky’s feeble attempts at helping. Steve knew this deep down and Sky probably did too, but it was a great way to blow off steam and clear his mind.
“Sorry for shouting Sky, do me a favor and go make sure everything else is set up while the croquettes are baking.”
