Falling Down(56)
"Let's get you in the hot water. It should help a bit."
"Okay." I reach down to pull my shirt up and Jesse moves my hands aside.
"That's my job, woman."
"Get to it then."
He takes my shirt off, then strips off his shirt and boxers. He scoops me up and steps into the tub. He sits back with me between his legs. I lean back against his chest.
I moan softly.
"Feel good?"
"Mmm. Yes." I close my eyes and relax against him. "Sing for me."
"You want me to sing?"
"Mhmm."
"What would you like me to sing?"
"Anything. I'm not picky. I just love listening to your voice."
He presses a kiss to the top of my head and starts singing one of their older songs called Forever Blue.
Why did you walk away, where did you go
I've been looking for you, but you never show
Your heart is empty, you left me behind
Your soul is broken, do I ever cross your mind
You left me alone, something I never thought you'd do
You walked out the door and left me forever blue
You turned away, why, I haven't a clue
You broke my heart and left me forever blue
His voice is so strong and deep and his growl is incredibly sexy. He continues to sing the song and I wonder which one of the guys wrote this song and got their heart broken.
"Sing with me, Luce. I know you know the words."
I nod and we sing the chorus.
You left me alone, something I never thought you'd do
You walked out the door and left me forever blue
You turned away, why, I haven't a clue
You broke my heart and left me forever blue
If I ever see you again, I hope you're whole
If you ever find love again, I hope he touches your soul
If he loves you like I did, you'll never be sad
Mine will be the purest love you've ever had
You left me alone, something I never thought you'd do
You walked out the door and left me forever blue
You turned away, why, I haven't a clue
You broke my heart and left me forever blue
Forever Blue.
"I can't wait 'til you get up on stage and blow the crowd away," he says as he turns me to straddle his lap.
I wince slightly.
"Sorry."
"Don't be sorry, I'm not," I say with a laugh.
He smiles that sexy half-smile that tells me he's feeling smug. "I'm not going to lie. I think it's sexy as f*ck that you're sore and it's from me."
"Are you going all caveman again?"
He nods. "I think I might be."
"So long as you don't drag me around by my hair, we're good."
"Nah. A little pain with the pleasure is good but that? No."
"Hmm. Spenser would kick your ass if you ripped out my hair."
"He f*cking would too. That guy," he says shaking his head.
"We hired him, you know?"
"You did?" Jesse grins. "You stole him out from under Cage?"
"I did. No one can do hair and makeup better than Spenser and his girls."
"You took the girls too?"
"Damn right. They're incredible and we're going to have a band that's going to need attention."
He laughs out loud. "If it was anyone other than you, Cage would be pissed. He spoils you two."
"He totally does. It's part of why I love doing videos with him."
"Yeah, he's cool. We're only going to do ours through him from now on since we're signed with him now. Me and the guys like how he set everything up, and for as intense and detailed as that video is, it didn't take long to make at all. Three days isn't shit. Our shittiest video took longer than that."
