That was what Trelane saw before all of us.

That was why he didn’t feature her in any way in that book.

I cannot say that woman was pure evil.

I just know, in that moment, she was.

So, I can say she had that in her.

And Trelane saw before any of us that she had that in her, and he was about capturing beauty or something interesting or making you think or taking you out of your world and exposing you to another, even if that other made you uncomfortable or even squirm.

Her?

He had no interest in her.

I’m all “What’s goin’ on here?”

And she shouts, “None of your fuckin’ business.”

And I say, “It’s my business, my boy’s clothes all over the place, and they’re fucked up and you’re screaming the roof down.”

“If Lyla was fighting with Preacher, you wouldn’t come knocking on the door,” she says.

“Lyla wouldn’t scream at him and cut up his clothes,” Dave says.

Leeanne knows that’s the truth, and she’s smart enough to know she doesn’t get down and dirty about Lyla with any of the band, so she doesn’t continue down that road.

“What I’m sayin’ again is,” she goes on, “it’s none of your goddamn business.”

And I just brave the beast, look right into her eyes and say, “Tim’s my brother. So, he’s my business.”

She looks at Tim and demands, “Tim, get rid of them.”

Now this is not a good situation for a brother to be in.

Somehow, she’s got him whipped but his two boys are standing there.

No man should let a woman, and just sayin’, that shit is vice versa, pull his leash ever, but definitely not in front of his boys.

Shades of the real Dave shine through and he says to Timmy, “I get it. She ain’t hard to look at. But you can get any pussy you want, dude. Lose this chick. She ain’t worth it.”

[Smiles]

Well…

[Starts laughing]

Needless to say, this does not make Leeanne happy and she loses it.

I mean she…fuckin’…loses it.

She’s in the middle of aiming her shit at Dave with Tim holding her back from goin’ at him when Tom shows.

And me and Dave are about looking out for our brother.

Tom’s about looking out for the band.

He sees the state of the place and gets a load of Leeanne and he says to Tim, “She goes or you’re on a break and you go with her. You need to snap out of it and take a look around you. A lot is at stake right now, Tim. And I don’t got time to be pissing around with the likes of her.”

Now I cannot say I’m totally down with Tommy laying it out like that.
