Absolutely Unforgivable(25)



Travis shouted out, “Fuck yeah. That’s hot. Make them bitches work for it.”

“Like karaoke,” I said while rolling my eyes at Travis for the bitches remark.

Billy walked over to the sound guy Patrick and messed around for a moment with some equipment by the large soundboards and then they put on I Hate Myself for Loving You by Joan Jett. Well that works, I thought to myself.

I grabbed the microphone and started to sing the words, even though I knew the equipment wasn’t really on so no sound would come out. Perhaps knowing that is what gave me such confidence; or perhaps it was all the drinks I had earlier.

When I got to the slow part of the song, I grabbed the microphone and then ran my hands down the stand seductively as I danced around it, working my way down and then back up the microphone stand. Billy’s eyes widened and his mouth fell open. I glared into his eyes as I mouthed the chorus of the song.

Trista stopped playing. “Okay that’s enough of that,” she said while glaring at Billy whose eyes were locked on me. “Let’s move on to the next part already,” she whined.

“I just had a great f*cking idea. Seriously. This is my best idea ever,” Brick proclaimed.

Brick said something to the boys I couldn’t really hear and then the actual members of the band moved into position and took their instruments from the girls. Brick moved the other girls over to the side and gave them their instructions, except for Trista who decided she wasn’t going to be a part of our little video shoot anymore.

“Okay superstar, you ready?” Brick asked as he turned to me. I nodded that I was, but really I was secretly terrified. I’m really not a superstar. This is not something I really had ever seen myself doing, at least not in front of people. This time we were all going to perform the band’s rendition of Joan Jett’s Bad Reputation.

Billy stood next to me and then we leaned into the microphone as the beat started and we both sang the first line of the song. Billy took over and sang the next line by himself. Then Brick pointed to me. It was my turn to sing, alone. Only this time the microphone was actually on and people were really going to hear me. I took a deep breath and then sang the best I could. Then together Billy and I sang the next line.

When we came to the chorus everyone leaned into the microphones in front of them and sang the words, including the girls. They swayed seductively the rest of the time, waiting for their singing parts to come up.

Next it was Billy’s turn to sing. He grabbed the microphone from me forcefully with both hands and leaned into it. It was so sexy when he did that. He made my entire body feel all warm and tingly.

When it came time again to sing the chorus again I leaned in to Billy and shared the microphone with him. It wasn’t easy to do since he was so much taller than me. Even in my six-inch spiked heels I still had to stand on my tippy toes to try and reach him.

I had so much fun. I couldn’t believe I did it. I really had forgotten the video camera was running and I just relaxed and enjoyed myself. I had never sung before in front of people like that. Actually that’s not true. I guess I had done karaoke a few times in the past, but it was nothing like this.

Luckily this new version of the video left out the part where we were all playing in our panties. I was so happy not to have to do that part.

My voice wasn’t exactly that great so I knew the boys would have to do some auto-tuning when it came to actually getting the video ready for release but I didn’t mind. I truly didn’t have any delusions of grandeur about being a rock star. They may have teasingly called me their little superstar but I knew I was far from it. I was just having fun.

Brick examined the footage he had and then repositioned everyone randomly to get some different shots here and there to fill out the rest of the video. And by then, we all had several more drinks in us and things were getting a little more complicated. You could tell Brick was getting frustrated with us, but I didn’t care, I really was having a great time.

Time had gotten away from me and before I knew it, Jeromy was home. I ran to greet him at the front door and jumped into his arms. He lifted me off of the ground as we locked in a passionate embrace. I wrapped my legs around his waist and then put my arms over his head. I held on to him firmly and he carried me up the stairs, all the while continuing to kiss each other. He was big and strong and had no problem carrying my tiny body all that way.

When we got in the bedroom he shut the door behind him and sat his briefcase on the floor and then gently laid me back onto the bed. He positioned his body on top of me and began to grind his hips into mine as we kissed. I gasped and arched against him
