We were having one hell of a night, and everyone was a little drunk as we hung around and fired off the fireworks into the night sky. Despite how wild things had gotten though no one was prepared for Leslie when she came walking around the side of the house in a drop dead sexy outfit. That she had the courage to walk right up to us wearing nothing but boots, stockings and lingerie either attested to how bold she was or how drunk. We didn't really care, we just appreciated the show.
She was carrying two lit torches burning at either end and under the light of the flickering fire she smiled at us excitedly.
“Hi guys.” she said as she twirled the torches around her, standing next to the largest of our remaining fireworks. “This missile is just for me!” she declared as she lit the fuse.
We didn't understand what she meant at first as she tossed away the two torches and leaned back against the firework, still smiling at us confidently as she held her arms out to either side of her.
“It will be an excellent finale to the show!”
Even then we didn't quite understand what was going on as she leaned back and ran her hands over the shaft of the firework, looking at us lustfully as the fuse hissed slowly by her feet.
“Tie me tight, I don't want to fall off before the climax.”
That was when it sank in and we all looked at her as if she'd taken leave of her senses. After a moment though we obliged her. Retrieving the lengths of rope that had held some of the expended rockets and tied her to the remaining one. She writhed beneath the ropes, moaning in excitement and a few of us stole kisses from her as we secured her to the rocket.
No sooner had we secured her last bond than the fuse reached the base of the rocket. We all jumped back as it hissed angrily, the munition beginning to engage as Leslie began an excited countdown.
“Yes!” she cried. “3, 2, 1...START!”
She had to shout as the rocket kicked in, roaring beneath her as a plume of light and smoke ignited about her feet. Then she was off, shooting into the sky with a last cry.
“O~oh! Goodbye!”
At least that's what we think she shouted as she rocketed upwards into the night sky, it was hard to tell over our shouts and the roar of the rocket. We watched as she streamed towards the stars and a part of us thought that perhaps this had all been one big show and there was going to be some sort of chute or something in the rocket that would bring Leslie safely down again. None of us were prepared for the explosion that lit the night sky, sending waves of crackling light in every direction. Leslie was gone, all that remained was the twinkling of the fireworks and the singed bits of lingerie fluttering back down to earth.
