Sandwiched between a sexy as hell rock god and his equally sexy and sweet manager…yup, that’s where I sit right now. We’re on our way to a dinner party. In a Suburban, packed with the members of the band, 69 Bottles, along with their manager, and four – yes, I said four - members of their bodyguard staff. I feel bad for Dex - the band’s drummer; Eric, also known as Peacock - the band’s bassist and Calvin, better known as Mouse - the band’s lead guitarist - because the three of them are sandwiched more than I am between Talon and Kyle. They’re big guys and well, it’s a Suburban. In the middle seat behind me, are Beck and Rusty, two of the four body guards, and sitting in the front passenger seat is Leroy, the dude is frickin’ huge, and Mills, lead bodyguard extraordinaire, is behind the wheel.
We’re on our way to Cami and Tristan Michaels’ house for a dinner party that is promised to be not only us, but a few of their friends as well. Which should be great; a chance to be normal, sort of.
Normal is hardly in my vocabulary anymore. Not since five days ago.
Five days ago I stepped onto a tour bus that belongs to America’s hottest alternative rock band, 69 Bottles. And five days ago, everything I thought I knew about myself was turned upside down.
I hit that bus with a fierce determination to be professional, do my job, and to have a good time doing it. But what I didn’t expect was the hotness that would surround me. There’s Dex, the drummer, who’s a dick, but still very attractive, living up to the rock god name in every stretch of the imagination possible.
Then there is Mouse. Why do we call him Mouse? Well, for his size he has a tiny ass voice that resembles Mickey Mouse in a strange way. Though when he sings backup for Talon he actually has a very low register. It’s kinda strange to hear.
And finally we have Peacock, who is aptly named for his wild hair color choices and his mad mohawk skills. His hair is colored to be hawked, so on nights like this, when it’s pulled back, it looks like a mosaic of color. He’s very good looking too, a little on the heavier side when compared to the other guys, but he’s solid underneath.
Ironically, I’ve yet to see any of them use the gym, so how they keep their figures is way beyond me.
My hotness meter landed on Talon, the band’s lead singer. He’s just all around yummy to look at with his shaggy light brown hair and the sexiest, scruffiest beard that is so deliciously perfect it’s turned me from ew beard to an OhMyGod beard person. He basically just looks like he hasn’t shaved in a week. He keeps it that way and it’s fucking delectable. He has these vibrant green eyes that almost seem to glow with their vibrancy. Just thinking about them when he looks at me with sex on his mind makes my entire body vibrate with sexual promise.
On my other side is Kyle, the band’s manager, who is equally as sexy as Talon is, but in a much softer kind of way. He’s built and tall, not quite as tall as Talon, but close. Kyle has beautiful blue-green eyes that open straight into his soul. Though he isn’t an open book, he’s incapable of hiding who he is on the inside. He has dirty blond hair that has a little length to it, but he’s more of the pretty boy between him and Talon. He keeps his goatee trimmed and he has that small, perfectly shaved line of hair that runs along his very strong, masculine jawline. Tonight he’s wearing a dress shirt, boots and jeans. All he needs is a cowboy hat and he’d make the perfect country specimen.
Just this last Sunday morning, waking up in Vegas, Talon, Kyle and I crossed a line that I never intended to cross, but was unable to resist any longer. They refused to make me choose between them, which is a good thing because there is no way that I could have. They’re the perfect balance of salty and sweet. Talon’s rough around the edges, a little crass at times, and he loves taking control and taking me roughly. Which reminds me of not so long ago when he took me hard, fast and rough. It was the perfect antidote to the shit day I’d had. He pushed me to let go, to surrender my body to him, thus taking my mind off of everything else. It was amazing.
Then you have Kyle, who is the polar opposite of Talon. Though not at all bashful about speaking his mind, he’s softer and more controlled and very passionate about me and things in general. I don’t think he realizes just how sweet he really is.
With the two of them, it’s the perfect balance. Good and evil. Salty and sweet. Loud and quiet. Hard and soft. And I am sandwiched between them. Engulfed with their personal need to be near me, to hold me and to have me.
