“Are you about ready to meet up with the bus?” he asked. “We’ll need to leave soon.”
Did he really expect her to think rationally about anything after what she’d just experienced due to his exceptional, guitarist hands and naughty tongue?
“Huh?”
“Did you need to stop by your friend’s house to pick up a change of clothes?”
Would she need clothes? She somehow hoped not, but the rest of the world might not agree.
“I think so,” she said, her thoughts still thick from her release and overwhelmed with fantasy. “Maybe? I du
Owen tugged her against his body, her breasts pressed into his bare chest. His hands moved to cup her ass. “Do you know how sexy you are when you’re too delirious to think? You’re making me all hard again.”
He kissed her slowly, gently, and for the first time since they’d been together, she not only felt something for him in her body, she felt something for him in her heart.
Shit, that would never do.
Shaken by the direction of her emotions, she pushed him away and climbed to her feet.
“Yeah, I’d better pick up some clothes. My sweet little sheep panties are pretty dirty thanks to you.”
He laughed and rose to stand beside her. “And I love that about them.”
Riding in a limo was still novel, and Caitlyn checked out every nook and cra
“You need to get used to loud music for tonight,” he told her as he cranked up the tunes and then tugged her into his arms.
That was probably true, but she wasn’t sure how deep, passionate kisses—the ones they were sharing—were necessary to acclimate her to metal. They did have her horny, however, and feeling brave. Brave enough to whisper her newest fantasy in Owen’s ear. He groaned.
“You should have told me in the hotel, where I was in the position to do something about it.”
“Next time,” she murmured.
He gri
The car pulled into Je
Caitlyn left Owen to wait in the back seat while she hurried to collect a few things. He’d insisted that if they wanted to ride on the bus, she’d have to hurry. She was a bit nervous about that, actually. She’d prefer to take the limo to Houston, but assumed the expense would be astronomical. The car and driver had been leased for the band’s use, but only for their stay in San Antonio.
Caitlyn let herself into the house using the key Je
“There you are,” Je
Caitlyn whirled around, her hand over chest, her heart thudding against her palm. She took a deep breath. “You scared the shit out of me. I thought you would have left for work by now.”
“I called in sick. I thought we could go to the salon and have a mani-pedi, grab some margaritas with a side of lunch while you tell me all about the cute guy you spent the night with, then we’ll pick up some dumb romantic comedy that will make Daniel flee from the house in horror and have the place and a gallon of chocolate ice cream all to ourselves.”
Caitlyn’s face fell. “Oh, I sort of told…”
She glanced out at the driveway and at the limo waiting for her. As much as she liked Owen and wanted to spend the day and evening with him, her loyalties had to lie with Je
Caitlyn felt terrible that she even considered spending time with Owen over Je
“I’ll just tell him to go on without me,” Caitlyn said. She couldn’t very well turn down her friend when she’d taken a day off work and made plans to spend it with her.
“Wait,” Je
“He’s out waiting in the car. He wanted me to go to Houston with him. But I’d rather spend the day with you.” Caitlyn almost believed her own lie. She would love to spend the day with Je
And suddenly Caitlyn was looking for anything but comfortable.
Je
“Yeah, well…” Caitlyn shrugged.
“Who is this guy? Is he rich?”
“I don’t know. He’s some musician.”
“Like a rapper or something?”
Caitlyn snorted on a laugh. “Not quite. He’s in some metal band. They’re called Sole Regret. He had convinced me to ride the tour bus and hang out with him backstage until his concert tonight, but I’d much rather have great nails and watch a dumb romantic comedy with you.”
“I call bullshit, Caitlyn Marie. You’re going.” She smoothed her light brown hair that always looked sleek and salon-styled. “And while you’re collecting your things, I’m going to introduce myself to your rock star. Is he really cute?”
“If you weren’t madly in love with Daniel, I wouldn’t let you within ten feet of Owen.”
Je
“I wouldn’t blame you if you did. Do you work tomorrow?”
“Nope.”
“Can we do the girl thing then?”
“Of course.” Je
“Am I smiling?”
“Like you’ve been hitting the Prozac a little too hard, honey. Good for you. Why don’t you borrow something from my closet?” Je
“Owen likes the way I dress.”
“I highly doubt that. Now I’m going out to meet the man who put that smile on your face, while you change into something a little less you. ”
“Don’t tell him any embarrassing stories about me!” Caitlyn called after her.
Je
In the guest room, she upended her overnight bag in the center of her borrowed bed and looked for something to wear to a rock concert. Je
She wasn’t quite daring enough to wear the dress during the day, so she added it to her bag to change into later. Then she filched a pair of red heels from Je
