……………. Everyone else in the place seemed to disappear as we danced my heart was thudding in my chest. The air in the club was heavy and thick the beat doing nothing but igniting a fire. The song changed and we kept on moving, I'm sure if we stopped the music would die and the night would end. I wanted to look at him so badly but I couldn’t because I didn’t trust myself not to recreate what happened in the Elevator in Spain. The heat was getting intense his shirt was sticking to him as my hands worked independently of my mind moving up his sides and across his chest. His hands were on the working up from my hips one of them twisting my hair in his fingers I swear to god I was more turned on dancing here than I’d ever been.
“Dude” the sound of Mikes voice carried over the noise I felt Chad stiffen his stance and the grip on my hair was lessened
“Fuck” Chad muttered I took my chance to look at him now, I wasn’t going to do anything in front of his brother and god knows who else was with him “I’m sorry” he looked at me, there was a hunger in his eyes that pulled at something inside of me
“Finally someone teaches you how to dance” Mike laughed putting a hand on my shoulder and Chad’s
“Bar crawl?” Chad asked stepping back from me a little but still keeping one hand on my waist
‘Yup we’re on a roll” Mike laughed pointing to where he was with some guys and girls.
“We we’re just getting ready to leave” Chad smiled “We had to deal with Paparazzi before”
"They’re outside of here now they we’re asking about you guys?” Mike picked up a beer “So I gave em shit”
“Thanks Bro” Chad nodded “See you tomorrow”
"Sure we’ll be round after dinner” Chad nodded I reached for my purse as he grabbed his jacket I was half way down the stairs my heart still racing. Mike caught Chad’s arm “Look after her there’s at least 20 guys outside and they want something” Chad nodded and caught me up.
“It’s going to be crazy out there” He said pulling me to him
‘I guessed it might be" again I couldn’t look at him properly was I imagining what was happening in there. He put his Jacket round my shoulders as the doorman opened the door. I stepped out in to what seemed like a million flash bulbs going off
“Chad are you and Chris together?” Someone shouted
“Chris are you trying to get back at Kellan for hooking up with his co star?”
“Guys come on” Chad tried to sound relaxed but it didn’t work
“Chris have you only got a gig like you have because of your Mom’s books?” I pulled Chad’s jacket tighter round me and began to cross the street to the parking garage
“Chad is the engagement back on? Have you forgiven Chris for seeing Kellan” Chad stopped walking
“You guys truly are idiots” he laughed “You don’t even know when you’re getting played”
“At least we know why Never West are touring with you” A reporter Laughed “I wouldn’t kick that out of bed either” he gestured to me I stopped and looked round to see Chad Squaring up to the guy
“You really want to go there?” Chad barked in his face giving him a push “Don’t Question the bands talent”
“Well Chris has some obvious talents” the guy smiled a sickly smile that turned my stomach I watch Chad ball his fist I ran over and grabbed his arm
“Chad no” I tugged him “Thick skin remember?’ He relaxed and turned away from the reporter and I linked his arm and we walked back across the street, he handed the Valet the ticket, the rumble of the McLaren again a comforting sound.
“You can drive if you want” I finally looked at him anger and annoyance etched on his face.
“You sure?” He relaxed as he spoke to me I nodded as the car pulled up I walked round to the passenger side and opened the door and got in. Chad pulled out of the garage almost taking out three or four of the paparazzi in the process. The Car tore up the street. “Well we can guess what’s going to be in the press tomorrow” He sighed settling back in the seat as if he was getting a massage from it.
“I’d rather read the crap that’ going to be in there than reading about you getting bailed from jail for beating the crap out of one of them” I Looked at him
“Yeah, Thank you for pulling me away” he glanced over “I owe you that one” A silence fell between us. Neither of us wanting to bring up what was happening in the club. The street outside of Chad’s house was lined with cars and people with camera’s were milling around as he opened the gate and drove inside “Oh well looks like we have to close all the drapes” he turned off the engine.
“I can leave and go and stay at a hotel”
“Like hell you will” he answered quickly “You’re safer here. Come on” we both got out and walked into the house, we closed the drapes and the blinds so no one could get a clear view in the house. I walked into the kitchen Chad was leaning against the counter; I took a deep breath… come on girl all or nothing.
“So what happened to not being able to dance?” I smiled leaning on the island.
“It suddenly became easy when I had a good teacher” I watched his grip on the counter get tighter his knuckles turning white
“Shame we had to stop”
“Yeah well my brother has this really bad sense of timing” he smiled lifting his head and looking at me “Or I think we’d have still been there”
“Dancing?” I asked biting down on my lower lip
“Maybe” he reached across the counter and pressed a button on a remote control and walked round to me as ‘Into the night’ started to play “it doesn’t have to stop” his voice was ragged “So how does it work again?” he reached for me I felt 1000 butterflies explode in my stomach as I stepped closer to him.
“You have to hold me close and let the music move you” I almost couldn’t get the words out.
“Like this”
One of his hands moved to the small of my back the other tracing tiny circles on the skin above the zipper on the back of my dress I nodded as we moved across the floor I could still feel the dampness of his shirt from the club the heat of his body underneath as my hand rested over his heart. It was racing almost as fast as mine. His hand left the small of my back and it brushed away the hair from my shoulder the sensation sent shivers up and down my spine my eyes closed and my back arched as the song came to an end. We stopped moving but didn’t move apart. His fingers trailed back down my arms I opened my eyes and looked at him. He hesitated for a second before he kissed me lightly. Instinctively my arms circled his neck, the kiss deepening a moan filled the air but I wasn’t sure if it came from Chad or me.
“I need to shower” he murmured his thumb rubbing the side of my neck “I feel like I’ve been on stage” I swallowed hard and took a step back trying to calm down
“I’m sorry… I…” my voice was shaky
“It feels like you’ve done one as well” he drew me back to him “Damn Chris” he groaned as I ran my fingers down his chest over his shirt He stepped back and linked his fingers with mine leading me to his room and into the bathroom he reached into the shower and turned on the water. He turned back to me and stroked the side of my face. “If you want to walk away right now then I understand” I reached behind my neck and unclipped my necklace and put it on his vanity along with the ring and the earrings.
“You’ll need to do my zipper” I turned away from him and moved my hair.
Everything was so different to anything I had done and felt before. Arron had been out to hurt me and get what he wanted. Dimitri had made it okay for me to feel again, Kellan had made me feel like I was the hottest person on the planet and it was okay to let loose and laugh. But Chad was making it feel like we were the last two people left as if there was only the two of us. His body was pressed against my back as his fingers worked the soap in my hair. He hadn’t kissed me since we we’re in the kitchen and my body was screaming for more. I was aching for him to touch me. I felt so hot I was terrified it was going to spontaneously combust. Chad’s fingers left my hair as the water washed the soap out and his hands moved slowly down my neck and my arms
“You’re beautiful” he murmured against the wet skin just below my ear. That tipped me closer to the edge I turned in his arms and my mouth searched out his our tongues in an all out war, the coolness of the tile against the hot skin on my back made me gasp and arch in to him, he chuckled as my leg hitch over his hip. Moaning as my teeth grazed his throat and he pushed against me. I hate it to sound Cliché but it was like someone had let off fireworks behind my eyes and I gripped him as I lost control………………………
