Absolutely Unforgivable(50)
“Okay, girls, let’s try and behave. You are starting to draw a crowd,” Billy said as he tried to separate Bree and me. I think I sensed a bit of agitation in his voice, but I was having so much fun I didn’t really care.
Before long it was time to go back onstage. The boys were busy setting up when Bree came up to me. “Wow that is so intense.”
I looked up at her, with my brow furrowed, having no idea what she was talking about. “What is?” Did she mean our little drinking game?
“Billy. The way he looks at you. It’s like ... I don’t know. The way he watches you always. It’s like he’s your own personal bodyguard and he’s ready to jump in front of a bus for you or something. It’s really intense. Sexy but intense.”
I glanced over at Billy and she was right. At that very moment he was watching me. Thinking back he did that often. There was something arousing about knowing Billy was always watching me, there to protect me and that I was never alone, as he was always there for me, making sure nobody was ever going to hurt me. I think if it was anybody else I might be completely creeped out but with Billy it’s different. I trusted him and I knew he was just trying to protect me. No. This had to be wrong. I had to be mistaken. But still I couldn’t think of a single time tonight where I had been alone.
The realization of Billy’s watchful eyes sent a surge of electricity through my body. I liked this but still I would need to test this theory out and see if it were really true. I turned my head and saw Audrey near the back of the stage talking with Erica, Darla and Starla. I sashayed my way over to her and quietly asked her if my shimmer paint was still holding up. I spun around in front of her, giggling, and then she came up to me and forced my head back. She licked the front of my neck while Erica licked the side. “Oh yes, it is holding up nicely. And it tastes oh so good too,” Audrey said.
I squealed loudly and within seconds Billy was at my side, with one eyebrow arched upwards. “Problem, ladies?”
They released their grip on me. “No. They are just tasting my shimmer.”
Billy took me by the hand and led me back to the front of the stage. “Stay here and try and behave yourself.” Next he brought Bree and Mindy up to stand next to me. “Your three try and keep it clean.”
Bree laughed, grabbed my hand and Mindy’s, and bounced up and down. “Isn’t this exciting? I’m so happy to be here with you tonight. This is so much fun, don’t you think?” She never really gave you time to answer before she was off on to the next sentence.
Bree was a sweet girl but she tended to talk a lot. While Bree and Mindy were going on and on about God only knows what, I would occasionally glance over at Billy and each time found he was looking at me. Bree was right; he did have an intense watch over me. It was so exciting.
Soon the music started up. They were all on fire. Travis and Zander were even more animated than normal as Billy sang Never Again. Their energy was electrifying and the song was hauntingly beautiful. Well, beautifully tragic. Mindy, Bree and I stepped up our act and danced seductively to the music.
The boys rocked out a few more fast songs that lit up the whole place. Everyone was having a great time. Then it happened. I can still barely believe it. I was standing in the middle, with Mindy and Bree on each side. Billy had been singing the Nickelback song Feelin’ Way Too Damn Good. Towards the end of the song he turned his head to me and flashed his adorable smile.
I couldn’t take my eyes off of him, but still continued my dance with Bree and Mindy. He looked down at the crowd; then his expression changed. He put his hands down off of the mic and said, “What the f*ck?” It echoed loudly as he said it and a hush came over the audience. He was looking at someone in the crowd who was standing near the stage just below me. I glanced down to see who it was that had upset Billy so much. There stood a man with his cell phone, trying to take a picture up my skirt.
I jumped back, horrified, and when I did, Billy jumped off of the stage and started pounding on him. “What the f*ck do you think you are doing? What the f*ck is wrong with you? You stupid piece of shit!”
Zander and Travis dropped their guitars, jumped off of the stage, and started fighting him as well. They were just wailing on him, beating him over and over again. Travis was shouting, “That hot piece of ass is our piece of ass. You don’t f*ck with that!” A few seconds later Bran had jumped off of the stage and jumped in the fight too.
My heart was pounding and my mind was racing. I was trying to figure out a way to stop this. I looked to Mindy and Bree and they just stood there as frozen in fear. On the other side were Darla and Starla cheering the fight on. “Yeah! Fuck you, perv! Kick his ass, baby!” Erica and Audrey were cheering the boys on as well.
