Falling Down(111)


"Woman, you look so f*cking sexy right now," I say, wrapping my arms around her and kissing her breathless.
"Wow," she whispers. "I'm all for being separated for short periods of time if you're going to kiss me like that when you come back."
"I'll kiss you like that any time you want."
"Smooth talker. I absolutely love your hair short like that, Jesse!" she bites her lower lip. "It's so hot."
"Yeah?"
"Mmm. Seriously sexy."
Fuck yeah. "Later, I'm going to f*ck you slow and easy, then after you come two or three times, I'm going to have you ride me fast and hard."
"Jesse," she whispers.
"Gets you wet when I tell you what I want to do to you, doesn't it?"
"Yes," she whispers and rubs her breasts against my chest.
"I f*cking love how wet you get for me."
"I love how hard you get for me. How you lose control when you're inside me and you can't help yourself."
I grunt. I'm starting to get hard. I need to change the topic.
"Whatcha making?"
"Peanut butter Rice Krispies treats and I'll put melted chocolate over the top."
"I hope you're planning on making a shit load of them because the guys will sow them down fast."
"Mhmm. I plan on making six pans. It's why I’m melting the marshmallows in the Crockpot. Mrs. Martinez is helping me."
"Clever girl."
"How'd practice go?'
"It was great actually. We're going to have sixteen tracks on the album. We just need to pick one more but we had an idea we wanted to run by you."
"What's up?" I ask, picking her up underneath her thighs. She immediately wraps her legs around my waist and her arms around my neck. I make my way out to the patio and sit on one of the loungers under an umbrella.
"I was wondering if you and the guys would want to record a song with us."
"Absolutely. That'll be perfect, actually."
"Mhmm. I was thinking," she murmurs, running her fingers through my short hair, "we can end our set with that song and then you guys will already be on stage. It's the perfect transition."
"We'll have to work out how to have two sets of drums on the stage. Some of the venues aren't that big."
"Do you think Trace and Xander would be okay using the same set?"
"I'm not sure. You know how it is with equipment."
"I know," she shrugs. "We can figure it out. Besides we'll need to write a song and we've only got two days left."
"Yeah, with ten of us do you see that being a problem?"
She laughs. "No, not at all. I've been very creative since you became my boyfriend."
"Oh yeah?"
"Mhmm," she says, circling my nipples, dragging her fingernail over the ring giving it just a shiver of a tug.
"I have to tell you, Jesse, we all work so well together. Me, Sera, Jace, Meggie, and Trace. We already know how to complement each other and it's just fantastic."
"That's awesome, Luce. That's the hardest part, you know. Finding the chemistry in the band, seeing if you can all blend together, and it sounds like you do."
"The first test will come next week when we're recording. Then the ultimate test will be touring. I hope we make it through the four month tour without killing each other or the band breaking up."
I chuckle. "You'll be just fine. I don't see Sera or Jace going anywhere. Meggie's already attached at the hip and Trace loves the sound and the laid back feel of the band."
She nods. "He told me he was worried there might be issues with drugs but then he saw how straight-laced we are and he relaxed." She sighs. "Do you think I'm uptight, Jesse? Is that what he meant by straight-laced?"
