Chapter Twenty-Two
AJ's POV
The limo stopped and I looked out the window. We were at her apartment complex. I saw Kacy get out of the car and walk towards the limo. I opened the door and got out.
"Climb on in," I said.
"Oh, no thanks. I'm going to ride with Howie and Nick. Valerie should be along in a minute. Have fun," Kacy replied, with a sly grin on her face. She headed over towards Howie & Nick's limo.
Da mn them. They were going to let us ride alone together. Probably Nick's idea, encouraged by Howie. And I'm sure Kacy had something to do with it as well. That girl was so not anywhere close to being innocent.
I know it has been a few months since I have been with anyone. Ok. Five months. Alexa was definitely a lot of fun, but when it came down to it, she just really wasn't all that smart and I can't stand a girl who can't hold her own in a conversation with me. Nick told me I was friggin' crazy to give up a "hot piece of @ss" like that just because she wasn't too smart. He keeps saying I should get it on with every hot young thing that shows an interest. I told him if I did that, then I wouldn't have time to perform with the group anymore. Sometimes I just don't know about that boy. I have tried to enlighten him with all my wisdom, but I guess he really has to learn on his own. Hopefully someday he'll meet that woman that throws him for a loop and actually refuses to have sex with him because he's 'Nick Carter, the Backstreet Boy".
I can't believe that there was actually a time when I thought like Nick does now. Over these past three years I have truly grown as a person. Every day is a little easier than the one before. It was extremely tough to give up the alcohol, but everyone is so proud of me. The outpouring from the fans has been amazing; so many letters from people saying how my struggle has helped them or a family member with their own struggle. I never really realized how much of an impact my life had on my fans before. It's completely humbling. I mean, I am just a regular guy who got lucky enough to have most of his dreams come true. All these people look up to me like I am a god or something, but I am not. I'm just me, Alex….a guy like any other, just looking for the right person to love for the rest of my life. That's how you know you are complete. Unfortunately, it's extremely tough to find when you are in this business. But I really want to find it. I want what Brian and Kevin have....the love of a good woman, who inspires you everyday, who you fall in love with all over again every time you look at her.
I looked at Valerie getting out of her car. Her legs were long and lean and that dress accentuated everything. She stood up, turned around and put her purse on top of the car. She then bent over into the car to look for something. Her dress rose up in the back, mere inches from exposing her @ss. I could feel something else rising up too, and I can tell you for da mn sure it wasn't my blood pressure. This woman had me hypnotized by her graceful beauty. I really did want to sleep with her from the moment I met her, but at the same time, I had this underlying feeling that to do so would be a really big mistake. I could tell that this woman was not the kind of person who you just love and leave. I had barely spent more than a half hour at the most with her and we definitely hadn't done much talking. How could I feel this way about someone I hardly knew?
She stood back up and closed the car door, grabbed her purse and started walking towards the limo.
"Hey gorgeous," I said, smiling, as she approached.
"Hey yourself," she replied, smiling back at me. Even her smile was sexy. How am I going to be able to resist temptation? I was never any good at it in the past.
"Your chariot awaits," I replied, holding the door open for her. "Thank you." She brushed up against me as she climbed into the limo…and I'm pretty sure she didn't do it by accident. This was going to be impossible. I climbed in and sat opposite her.
"So, looks like we've got this thing all to our selves," she remarked.
"Looks like it," I replied. "You like?" I said, as I motioned around the inside of the limo.
"It's really, really nice," she replied, looking around, wide-eyed. "The last time I was in a limo was when my aunt got married. I was 6. Don't really remember much about it, but I can guarantee it wasn't anything at all like this."
She leaned over to check things out, giving me a great view of her chest. Again, I'm pretty sure she did not do it by accident.
"Wow. This limo has everything! Hey, what's this knob over here do?" She reached for it and turned it to the left. The lights got really dim. "Oh. Mood lighting," she replied, as she moved from her side of the limo and sat next to me.
"Huh…I guess it does have everything," I replied, as I turned to face her.
"Yeah, it does." We were now staring at each other and I could see the hunger in her eyes. You could cut the sexual tension with a knife. "How clever of the manufacturer." Her hand was on my thigh. "Looks like they covered all the bases."
With that, I leaned in and gave her a sensual kiss. Her lips parted slightly and our tongues met. She tasted so sweet. I trailed my kisses down her neck and back up, with a few licks here and there. She let slip an "Mmmmm" that let me know she was definitely enjoying herself. She returned the favor by kissing and licking her way across my neck, to my earlobe. She slowly sucked on it and flicked it with her tongue, which, in turn, made my 'friend' even more excited. I trailed my hands down her back and then slowly slid them up again, casually brushing her right breast with my hand. She slipped her hands inside my jacket and attempted to push it over my shoulders and off of me. I pulled it off the rest of the way, reached behind her head and pulled the clip out of her hair, throwing it onto the other seat. Her lustrous chestnut locks fell down just below her shoulders. I ran my fingers through her hair, entwining them in the loose curls. I pulled her mouth away from my ear and towards my own. I wanted to taste those sweet lips again.
Ok, so it looked as if my plan was going to fail. I said I was never any good at resisting temptation. Especially when it comes to sex. Besides, she was coming on to me! I couldn't insult her by pulling away. Guess I just have to go with the flow.
Things were quickly heating up as I laid her down on the seat, running my left hand down the side of her body to her thigh and then back up, stopping to caress her breast through her dress. I supported my body weight with my right hand and arm as I hovered over her. She ran her hands down my chest and untucked my shirt from my pants. She slipped her hands under my shirt running them up and down my chest. I sat up and unbuttoned my shirt, letting it slip off of my arms and back. She reached up, putting her hand behind my neck and pulled me back towards her. Our mouths and tongues met yet again. Each kiss was more intense than the next. She wanted me at this very moment just as much as I wanted her. I trailed my kisses down her neck, towards her right shoulder. I pushed the sleeve of her dress out of the way to expose her bare skin. I then kissed and licked my way towards her slightly exposed breasts. She arched her back and let out a slight, satisfied moan. This obviously turned me on even more. I ran my hand down her thigh and under her dress. Her skin was so soft and smooth. She ran her hands up and down my back as I continued to concentrate my kisses on her partially exposed breasts and then trailed them back up along her sleek neck.
Softly, I heard her ask me, almost breathless, "Do you have protection?"
SH*T! Why did I take out the one I had been carrying around in my wallet for weeks?! Because I'm a dumb@ss! I panicked and stopped everything I was doing. I quickly got off her and sat on the seat, looking sullen.
She sat up and leaned back, resting on her elbows. "I'm going to take that as a no," she said, looking up at me with the sexiest pout of her lips that I have ever seen.
"I'm sorry," I said, leaning in and kissing that sexy pout. "I didn't plan for this to happen. Honest. I guess this limo doesn't have everything after all." Note to self: Self, don't EVER leave home without a condom in your pocket again!
