Exton

"Keon!"

Ike's voice carries across the dance floor. Keon turns his eyes reluctantly from the Wyldfae. Ike has an arm around Monty's waist and holds out a guitar.

"You are going to get that Faerie ass up on stage and play with us tonight!"

Keon grins, a flash of white in all the black. He kisses Cassie's hand. "Do you mind, mela?"

Cassie smiles. "You play?"

He leans close and whispers, "Only with you, now."

Ike's voice drifts through the dimness as Monty lowers the lights. her voice is soft and seductive.

"Many months ago, Ob convinced a fellow Minstrel to put aside his drink and join us onstage. No one expected the results we got that night. Let's get that man up here again... come on people...  Keon... join us!"

The crowd begins to call his name, cheering him on. Cassie laughs, walking with Keon toward the stage. Ron holds out a chair for her as Keon straps on a guitar. He smiles weakly at Cassie.

Ike covers the mike and whispers to Keon. He laughs and nods. Stoney slides behind Ob's kit while Tori eases behind his bongos.  Ike strums and Keon picks out the melody.

Ob voice whispers... "This is for all the women who have danced into our hearts..."

As the song starts, he moves out onto the floor, rolling his hips to the rhythm. Pandora finds Chloe back in Silk's arms and herself in Ob's. He smiles down at her as he begins to sing.

Like a gift from the heavens it was easy to tell,
It was love from above that could save me from hell.
She had fire in her soul, it was easy to see
How the devil himself could be pulled out of me.

And we sang 'ay oh ay oh ay oh ay'
And our voices rang like the angels sing.
And singin' 'ay oh ay oh ay oh ay',
And we danced on into the night,
('Ay oh ay oh', Ay oh ay oh')

Keon steps forward, head bowed over his guitar as his fingers dance over the strings. His hair comes undone and flows with his motions.

Like a gift from the heavens, it was easy to tell,
It was love from above that could save me from hell.
She had fire in her soul it was easy to see,
How the devil himself could be pulled out of me.

There were drums in the air as she started to dance,
Every soul in the room keeping time with their hands.

And we sang 'ay oh ay oh ay oh ay',
And our voices rang like the angels sing.
And singin' 'ay oh ay oh ay oh ay',
And we danced on into the night!

Ike grins at keon, motioning to Silk dancing with Chloe. Keon grins and nods.

When the song ends. Ob smiles at Panodra and kisses her gently. Take Chloe from Silk... I am going to get my cooza to dance for us...

The band changes around and Stoney picks out the opening Keys of Oy Como Va. Ob tugs Silk's hand and she spins into his arms.Ike and Tori tap out the rhythms to Keon's strings.

Silk laughs and moves her hips, Ob soon echoes her movements. She changes it up, mixing Salsa with Romani, daring him to keep pace. They move in sync, parting and pairing their movements. She looks over her shoulder and throws up her hands at the end of the song.

Ob laughs.

"My cooza... Remember guys.. she is taken.." Silk winks and struts off the floor. "One more song Keon... c'mon dude!... another Nickelback...."

Keon laughs as Ob leans close to Pandora, kisses her, then hands Keon the mike. Tori takes up her guitar as Ob winks at Pandora and slides behind his kit.

Tori hits the hard bass, followed by Ob's downbeats.

Keon closes his eyes and then stares at Cassie.

I wanna do it till the sun comes up
Till we're both so good and
sweaty that we can't stand up

Keon's fingers fly, the notes screaming under his control.

Without stopping, the band slides right into Burn It To The Ground. Keon is laughing as he lays the guitar on the stage and tugs Cassie out on the floor. He leaves no room between their bodies as he grinds against her. Cassie moans and he laughs, forgetting everyone else around them. He almost misses it as the songs change again this time into something slower. Keon's lips find hers and he drinks in her taste.

"My Moonmaiden... I have missed you. I want to lie close to you, feeling you skin to skin."

A pale lavender stains her cheeks and Keon smiles. He sings softly.

Your sweet moonbeam, the smell of you in every single dream I dream
I knew when we collided, you're the one I have decided who's one of my kind

Twillon's hand comes down on his shoulder and Keon stares at his friend. Twillon leans close and whispers in his ear. "Room.. get a room..."

Keon laughs and raises Cassie's palm to his lips. "Aleady have one.." he mutters.

watching you's the only drug I need

You see, I can be
myself now finally, in fact there's nothing I can't be

I want the
world to see you be with me...
