KITTENS ON THE RADIO

Alexithymiaa: -Steph had been in the bedroom folding laundry on the bed, Alfred and Isley lying next to each other and just sort of watching her because for some reason laundry time means they flock. She had her phone set up with some local rock station just listening to some tunes while she was doing chores.-
Covet: Felix walked in from his shift at the library, hanging up his keys, and dropping his backpack onto one of the chairs around the table. He sighed out and looked around for Steph, then noticed the music in the bedroom and made his way that direction. "Hey I'm home."
AlexithymiaaAlexithymiaa : -She heard him come in and gently folded the shirt she was working on, setting it in the stack just in time to see him coming in throught he bedroom door. She sent him a smile, stepping over to lean in and kiss him hello. "How was work?"-
Covet: "It was work. I got my surgery scheduled. Morning of the eleventh of April." He said as he walked over to give her a kiss, then went about stripping down.
Alexithymiaa: "That seems so far away..." She started, shifting back to her laundry folding as she pulled out a pair of his pants, folding them in half and then into a square. "They didn't want to get you in earlier?"-
Covet: "No, but I told them to keep me posted if there was any cancellations or changes." He said pulling off his shirt having a little difficulty with it before finally getting it off. "I really want this off...It's annoying."
Alexithymiaa: "Trust me, I know. But have we learned how important physical therapy is going to be after your surgery?" She asked with a condescending tone, shaking out one of the shirts she pulled from the basket to fold and add to the stack. "Since it's orthoscopic, it shouldn't be very much down time."-
Covet: "Yeah, yeah I know." He said rolling his eyes as he heard her. "Hopefully. I have dancing goals to work on."
Alexithymiaa: "You absolutely do have daancing goals to work on." She flashed a quick smile at him, furrowing her brows when she heard the DJ on the radio start talking about a local band, and then 'Talk' started to play. She grabbed her phone, freezing as she listened to confirm it was really their song playing on a local radio station.-
Covet: Felix turned to listen and watched the look on her face, "Wait.. holy shit is that your band?" He asked her with a big grin.
Alexithymiaa: -She slowly looked up from the phone in shock to stare at him, the grin spreading across her face. "THEY'RE PLAYING OUR SONG ON THE RADIO!" She yelled, the moment hitting her all at once, beginning to jump up and down. "WE'RE ON THE RADIO!"-
Covet: Felix laughed having been in the middle of dropping his pants, and put his good arm up in the air as he jumped along with her, then pulled her in for a kiss. "I think you can say you've officially made it. Suck on that Risa."
Alexithymiaa: -She leaned into him, still sort of bouncing on the balls of her feet as she hugged him back. "I mean it's just a local station, but.... we werent even peddling to any stations to play our music. And they're playing Talk. I wonder if that little stunt with Josh hit their radar."-
Covet: "Probably." Felix said. "I mean, that was kind of it's purpose right?" He said trying to ignore that cringey event. He still kind of sort of felt bad for Josh. "Even still. There is the slightest chance your mom will hear this and have to choke on her own words, eventually, when she realizes it's you. Which she probably never will. All the same You made it!"
Alexithymiaa: "Yeah, I guess so..." She trailed off as the song ended, setting her phone down on the dresser. "I seriously doubt she will. It's a local rock station. You really think she would ever listen to that? She listens to like... old disco music from the seventies. Like not even the cool seventies rock, which was the perfect era for it." She rolled her eyes, walking over to bounce up onto the bed. "Should I call someone? Should I do something?"-
Covet: "Umm.. Call your Brother? Since he's in town and they will probably play it again so he can hear it?" Felix suggested to her. "Also... your mom gets more disappointing the more you tell me about her."
AlexithymiaaAlexithymiaa : "I really dont feel like calling him. He's just going to be a pain in the ass about yesterday." She bounced off the bed and grabbed her phone, her fingers sliding over the screen to type her group Kitten chat to let them know to tune in religiously. "The Kittens are going to lose it. This is so crazy. Do you think this will help me sell more songs? I haven't heard from Anna's management yet."-
Covet: "Fair enough I don't want to hear him bitch about that either. But I'm also glad it kept him away. Tell me what they have to say." He said climbing up onto the bed on a space where there wasn't laundry. "Probably, at the very least it will probably help you sell more albums too."
Alexithymiaa: "Hey, I'm not complaining about that. I intended to also sort of put feelers out with Anna's people and see if there's anyone looking for a songwriter to hire a little more regularly. That way we can fully secure our financial situation for a while."-
Covet: "Good, I've got a couple of shoots lined up, One is up in Seattle next weekend, Do you think you'll be free to go with me?" Felix asked her. "It's paying eight hundred."
Alexithymiaa: "Yeah, absolutely. Just tell me whatever you need me to do and I'm there. Seattle is pretty cool." She turned her phone toward him so he could see the flood of messages from the Kittens all freaking out in a very girlish fashion or screaming about how they're dead.-
Covet: "If they're dying that's going to be hard to put out new albums..." He said to her, then smiled, "I'm looking forward to it. It's a fashion shoot I guess. For some some up and coming designer? I kind of glossed over the email."
Alexithymiaa: "Well I have plenty of confidence in you. I know you'll take a glam shoot and make it different and unique and interesting. All of your work is." She leaned over, planting a kiss on his lips. "And I will wrangle cables, hold bounces, and set up tripods like it's nobody's business."-
Covet: "Sweet, You'll be the best and hottest assistant I've ever had." He said with a grin, stretching out after kissing her back.
AlexithymiaaAlexithymiaa : "I better be otherwise we're going to have a serious problem." She slipped off the bed, turning around to take the folded piles of clothes to start putting away in drawers. "Although you can ask Dean, I make a pretty good assistant."-
Covet: "Yeah, but you weren't in love with Dean. So this is even better and more special." Felix said, like it had to be some sort of competition.
Alexithymiaa: "Well that's not exactly true. I've always loved Dean. He's been like a brother to me." She turned to grab a stack of pants, sliding them into Felix's drawer.-
Covet: "Loving him and being in love are two different things." He said rolling his eyes, watching her intently.
Alexithymiaa: "Semantics. I got to work for one of my good friends and nine times out of ten, we worked pretty well together. He can definitely vouch for my fantastic assistant skills." She moved the now empty basket off the bed, sticking it back into the corner. "And I'll even catalog your SD cards if you tip me when we're done."-
Covet: "Oh I'll give you a tip." He said with a smirk because he's male and makes lame jokes like that from time to time.
Alexithymiaa: "Uhuh... you better take care of yourself, Kid. I'll kill you if you don't." She tried to threaten, but she couldn't keep a straight face. "No really... you need to take it easy."-
Covet: "I know.. I know. You keep reminding me. It's annoying.. because I can only take so much before it becomes a need. Just saying." He said to her giving her a pout.
Alexithymiaa: "Well maybe you should have thought of that before you went against your doctor, your physical therapist, and me." She gave him a little side eye before pulling off her hoodie, tossing it into the laundry basket followed by her jeans. She climbed up on the bed, making herself comfortable with the intent to at least get him off so he'd stop complaining even if she felt full out sex would be too hard on his shoulder. HARD. Hahahaha.-
