Chapter 14

“So tell me a little more about yourself,” said Jack as they waited for the food. “We’ve talked about our oddities some, but what about everything else? I always like it when people know about Jack the guy who’s way too into rock and roll, and not just Jack the inhuman vampire. I know about Noah the transgender man, but I don’t know very much about just plain Noah.”

Noah smiled, feeling a warmth blossom in him. “Well, just plain Noah also really loves rock and roll. Who’s your favorite group?”

“As if I could pick just one! I got into it early, we were doing one of our attempts to get back in touch with the world right when Beatlemania peaked.” He gave a little shake of his head and flashed a small smile at Noah. “And it’s great to not have to lie about that and pretend I wasn’t even born then! But anyway, most of my favorites are from right around then. The Beatles definitely. The Who. The Stones. I like Elvis, too. And, guilty pleasure, I’m pretty fond of The Beach Boys.”
