Rocking His Fake World (Love You Forever #3) - Alexis Winter Page 0,55

body to burn even hotter.

His hands work my dress up my thighs and his fingers run across my center. There’s only one small piece of fabric separating us and I wish he’d push it to the side. I want to feel him touching me.

Someone knocks on the door and then seconds later, Van’s voice rings out. “Luna! Open up!”

“Fuck,” Daniel breathes out, tearing himself away from me. He stands up and helps me to my feet. He quickly looks around the room, deciding to step into the small closet as I go to open the door, finding Van, Ridge, and Lane on the other side.

“What’s up, guys?”

“We’re taking off to check out the festival. Want to come eat some fair food and enjoy some rides?”

I smile. “Thanks for the offer, but I have plans for tonight. Go on without me.”

He draws his brows together. “You sure? I know how much you love those curly potato things and funnel cakes.”

“Don’t forget the lemon shake-ups, but yes, I’m sure. I’ll just grab something on the way out.”

“All right, see ya later,” Van says, walking down the hallway with the guys following along behind him.

I shut and lock the door once again and go over to the closet to let Daniel out. “You ready to go?”

“Let’s do it,” he says, stepping out of the closet.

I go to gather my things and see a text from Riley. I open it quickly.

Daniel sent us a clip of your live show. Killing it, girl! Can’t wait to see you again!

I smile at the message and send her a quick thank you. Riley and Piper are both really sweet and funny. They’re the kind of people I can see myself being lifelong friends with. I’ve never had many girlfriends. Every one I’ve made over the years has either been jealous of the time I spend with the guys, or jealous of the attention I get from being on stage. Piper and Riley don’t seem to be that way. They’re just laid-back and easygoing, which means hanging out with them is fun instead of work. That’s exactly the kind of people I need in my life.

I grab my phone and purse and take Daniel’s hand as he leads me out of the dressing room, down the hall, and out the back door to the outside world. We’re smack dab in the middle of a massive fair. We’re surrounded by flashing lights, children crying, and the sweet, sweet smell of fair food.

“Want to grab something to eat?” he asks as he leads me toward the parking lot.

“You know I do.” We stop at a vendor and order a lemon shake-up, curly potatoes, and a funnel cake. We take the items over to a small picnic table in a darkened corner where we hopefully won’t be spotted. I take a sip of my drink and the sweetness mixes with the sour in the best way possible. I tear off a potato strip and dip it in the cheese sauce I ordered on the side. The fried food is exactly what I need after giving my all on stage.

Daniel grabs a potato spiral and dunks it into the cheese before popping it into his mouth. The chunk is bigger than he anticipated, though, and it leaves a smear of cheese on both corners of his mouth. I laugh and reach up to wipe it away. “Really good, huh?”

His mouth is full but he smirks and nods.

“Luna! Daniel! What are you two doing here?” Van asks, walking up with the guys flanking him.

I look at Daniel but he’s calmly looking up at Van. “I came to the show. I ran into Luna afterward and we decided to get something to eat. You guys want some?” He slides the paper boat of curly potatoes toward them.

Van laughs as he holds his beer cups. There are at least six stacked in his hand. “Better be careful. Luna doesn’t share curly potatoes.”

All the guys sit at our table. “What did you think of the show?” Van asks.

Daniel chews while nodding. “It was really good. Can’t wait to see you guys on tour. When’s that kickoff again?” He looks confused but I know the date is burned into his memory like it is mine.

“A few weeks,” I say, nonchalantly.

“I’ll have to go online and buy some tickets. Should I ask for autographs now or do I have to wait in line with the rest of the fans?”

I roll my eyes. “I’m pretty sure you got something
