away.

“Drool is sexy on no one, not even you. What time is it?” She asked as she stretched and winced.

“We go on in twenty. Go wipe the drool from your face so we can go in.”

I waited by my bunk as she walked into the bathroom to re-tie her hair and wash her face. I loved the fact that it didn’t take her an hour to get ready like most girls. With Chloe, what you saw was what you got and I found it refreshing. Sure, she dressed up from time to time, but most of the time she was in a pair of jeans and a t-shirt. Instead of it bothering me, I found it incredibly sexy.

She exited the bathroom and walked up to me, throwing her arms around me as she pulled my mouth down to meet hers in a hungry kiss. As her tongue slipped into my mouth, I groaned and grabbed her ass. If she kept this up, there was no way I could keep my vow to wait until she was healed. We hadn’t been together in weeks and a guy can only take so much.

“You’re going to kill me, you know that?” I asked as she pulled away. I took a deep breath, trying to distract myself from the raging hard on she had given me.

“I’m trying. Are we getting a hotel room tonight?” She asked breathlessly.

And there went any hopes of calming down before I had to go on stage.

I leaned down and brushed my lips against the corner of her mouth. “Yeah we are, but if you try anything on me, I’m tying you to the bed.”

Her eyes lit up and she grinned at me. “Is that supposed to make me behave? If so, you need to think of a better threat.”

I wasn’t a bondage type of guy, but damn. Picturing Chloe tied to my bed naked was enough to make me come in my pants. I groaned as I grabbed her hand and led her off the bus.

“I have to be on stage in ten minutes, please don’t do that to me.”

She laughed as we walked across the now full lot and into the bar. Jade and the guys were already sitting at a table close to the stage and I pushed through the crowd to them. I kept Chloe close to me, trying to protect her from anyone who might bump into her. We took the two empty seats left at the table, with Chloe ending up between Jordan and me. That grated my nerves, but I took a deep breath and let it go. Eric was right; if I kept acting like a jealous freak, all I would do was drive her away.

I relaxed back into my seat as a waitress brought me a beer and waited for the owner to introduce us. The crowd around us was already hyped up, and I let their excitement flow into me. I had no doubt that they would keep us going throughout the night with no problem. There was nothing I despised more than a crowd with no energy; it made it twice as hard to play and sing well, and we weren’t nearly as good when that happened. We might supply the music, but the crowd itself was who set the mood for the entire set.

I gave Chloe a quick kiss before standing and walking to the stage with the rest of the band as the waitress that had brought me a beer introduced us. Several people crowded around the stage as I spoke into the mic. “Evening guys. I’m Drake and we’re Breaking the Hunger!”

With that, Jade started us into our first song as the crowd shouted their approval. As I sang into the mic, I watched Chloe and Jordan out of the corner of my eye. Jordan was whispering something in her ear, but she was ignoring him as she stared at the crowd in front of me. I glanced down to see several women all trying to catch my attention.

This was where things got tricky for me. If I ignored them and pissed them off, we’d lose fans; if I smiled and flirted with them, Chloe would be angry with me. As far as I was concerned, it was a no win situation for me. I had been angry with Chloe for paying attention to Jordan when here I was, surrounded by women with lust filled eyes. Sometimes karma is a bitch.

I glanced over at Chloe and
