Falling Down(15)
"Why? Why is it they come back here when we've just gotten our makeup scrubbed off and our hair thrown up in messy buns while we sport our yoga pants and t-shirts? We looked f*cking amazing no more than ten minutes ago."
Sera lets out a loud sigh. "It's our curse."
I nod and press my lips together. "We have a lot of curses."
"True story," Sera murmurs.
The guys just stare like we're freak shows.
"Stop staring! I know I look like shit, okay? Makeup-less Lucy isn't a great sight to behold."
"Oh, I don't know," Xander says. "I think you look just as hot without makeup as you do with it. Maybe hotter since it's real."
Jesse lets out a growl and my eyes widen. Xander grins and Ben winks at me.
"Did he just growl?"
Ben winks again.
"Well, thank you Xander for the compliment. That's very sweet of you to say."
"Great shirt," Ethan tells me with a wink.
"Thanks. Deftones put on an amazing concert."
"Avenged Sevenfold?"
"Yeah baby."
"Nice."
"Matt Shadows is so damn sexy."
"Oh my God," Sera moans. "There are no words. M. Shadows," she says with reverence and I grin.
"Mmm," I groan leaning back in my chair, wiggling my toes.
"Is that a moan for Matt Shadows or do you have sore feet?" Jesse asks.
"Sore feet. Killer boots."
Jesse places a towel on his lap then lifting one of my feet and massaging.
I close my eyes and moan out loud. His hands still. "Oh, don’t stop. That feels so good."
He starts rubbing again and everyone in the room starts laughing.
"Shut up. I know what it sounded like and I just don't care."
I peek through one eye at Jesse and he grins. I close the eye again and just relax into my chair.
"Your hands are amazing."
Silent pause.
"Again, I know what it sounded like. Get your minds out of the gutter. You all can see he's rubbing my feet. Pervs."
"Yeah, pervs," Jesse says with a hint of laughter in his voice.
"Don't think I don't know you're smiling over there, Kingston."
"Oh, hell yeah I'm smiling. I'm thinking if this is the kind of reaction I get when I'm rubbing your feet, what kind of reaction am I going to get when you're naked and underneath me."
"Hmm. You're assuming a lot with that statement."
"How so?"
"First, you're assuming I'm ever going to be naked when you're around. Second, you're assuming you'd be on top. Third, you're assuming you'd be able to touch me in such a way that would cause me to moan as I did when you rubbed my sore, overworked feet."
"First, I've no doubt I'm going to see you naked, it's a matter of when. Second, the first time I'm definitely going to be on top, after that we'll play it by ear. Third, I guarantee I can make you moan longer and louder than you just did and you'll be screaming my name."
The first time? Wow. Screaming his name… I'm all for that if he's inside me while I'm doing it.
Sera snickers, Spenser lets out a frustrated noise, and the guys are murmuring amongst themselves.
"Hmm. Guess we'll have to wait and see but I'm not going to bet the ranch."
He stops rubbing and taps my shin so I'll look at him.
"Challenge accepted, Lucy."
***~~~***
"Do you just realize you just laid down a challenge to Jesse Kingston?"
"I didn't. He just took it as one."
"Same thing, Luce."
"I'm not worried about it. We're only on set a few days and I doubt we're going to find ourselves in a situation where any of that will be possible. Besides, he was just saying those things because everyone was there and he wanted to best me."
