churn that butter!
~Corey’s Point of View~ Waking up with a naked Pearl against me was so fucking hot, so sexy. There’s literally no chance I could ever get sick of this view. And last night … fucking hell. We were beyond electric together, completely in sync. Sometimes you get that rushed sloppy sex where one person goes in one direction, the other person is lost in their own rhythm. Not with her, not at all. I hope she doesn’t think I was kidding when I asked her to marry me. No way in hell was I not putting my stink all over her. We were hitting the road next week, we’d be on the tour buses for about ten days, then we’d have the MTV Video Music Awards. They were always first, and certainly we’d have to make a big impression. Slade was in talks about what song we’d play, we didn’t have an album out right now but they’d still asked us. We hoped that was a good sign that we wouldn’t just be nominated for a bunch of shit and lose. I mean we were hardly whores for little trophies but it would suck t
~Pearl’s Point of View~ “What are you doing in here baby? I’ve been looking all over,” I heard, as I looked up. I sighed and tossed the packet on the table in front of me. I’d found a nice quiet sitting room in Slade’s house that looked like it was literally never used. It had some comfy couches and a nice view of the backyard, I was pretty sure there was some sort of cinnamon air freshener nearby. It was delightful. “Trying to understand this contract Slade gave me. I’ve been reading it on and off for days, kind of out of time to tell him if I don’t like anything. I have to keep stopping and Googling what things mean,” I said, rolling my head around. I’d been at it all morning and I was ready to just sign it and move on. Not that I didn’t trust Slade … I really did. But still… Corey fell on the couch next to me and took my hand. “If you want your own lawyer I can arrange--” I cut him off, putting my finger on his lips. He kissed my finger. “I pretty well understand it all. I j
~Corey’s Point of View~ I had just lost my ass at poker, fucking Lukas cheats I swear. I smiled at Pearl and Bailey as they went through a pile of clothes and other girlie shit in the back. They were really getting along well, and Juliet loved her too. It meant everything to me that she fit in and felt welcome. My brothers and I were always together, and I didn’t want to let us all getting females in our lives change that. They’d just be along for the ride. We’d been on the bus about six hours already and we’d be in Phoenix soon. We had a radio interview at six fucking a.m. Those are the worst. Trying to get us in town the night before so we’d be good and rested was pointless. Lukas would be out at a stripclub with the staff there was no doubt. It didn’t even remotely sound appealing to me anymore. Neal was the usual bodyguard Slade had out with us, but he wasn’t available … what else could be more important? They sent some giant ass dude instead and I was even intimidated by this
~Pearl’s Point of View~ How is it already time? How is it now? This is it, ten minutes to show time and I still have no fucking idea if I can even do this. I threw myself in the bathroom like a coward to get away from Corey, my heart was nearly beating out of my chest. “Pearl? Sweetie it’s Jude, let me in,” I heard, as I began to hyperventilate. Corey wouldn’t be at all happy he wasn’t the one to soothe me but right now I didn’t care. I opened the door and grabbed at the body there, finding an arm and jerking it. I then slammed the door shut and locked it. “Did Corey tell you,” I said, nearly breathless. “Tell me what? Stage fright? Don’t think I don’t get it too, even after all this time,” Jude said, putting his inked hands on my shoulders. Corey didn’t tell him? “How many people do you think are out there,” I whispered. “Don’t think like that, you can’t honey,” he said, rubbing my shoulders. “But it’s not just that I…” I trailed off, my eyes were shut. I felt his forehea
~Corey’s Point of View~ We were on a break for a couple days, and Slade thought we could all use a time-out. But of course in the world of a guy with a shit ton of money, that means doing things big. So what does a hard rock band with money and free time do? Well if Lukas had his way we’d be renting out a strip club. But that was not happening. Next best thing? Renting out an amusement park after hours. The park had closed at eight and it was now nine … and we were just getting started. We had the place until midnight, I don’t even wanna know what that had to cost. Pearl was all in, just like a kid on Christmas morning and it was everything I wanted it to be. Her eyes were constantly lighting up, her laugh was non-stop and completely infectious. She went on everything with me, even if she pouted a bit and acted scared she was totally into it. It allowed me to pull my macho card a few times, be the strong man who would hold her and make it better. We got dizzy, we ate too much …
~Pearl’s Point of View~ I could tell Corey was pretty caught off guard when he found me in the ballroom. When he saw what a mess I was. I hadn’t planned on being so damn ridiculous. I felt stupid. There wasn’t a chance in hell Devin was wasting any time on me. I really did wonder what he thought of me in Feisty though, if that stuck in his craw. There was no chance it didn’t. Corey reeked of booze and I knew he’d probably come to bed wanting sex. I’d have been happy to give it to him if I wasn’t such a blubbering mess. Why couldn’t I just get over it? I had just been so damn blindsided. I really think that’s why it’s so bad. Why do people cheat? The thrill of it? Why dump me in such a fucking dramatic way? I just couldn’t wrap my head around how he could literally be that cruel. Corey was so good at distracting me physically, and I so often needed it desperately. I didn’t want talk about my stupid feelings. I was sick of talking about it all. I needed him to remind me I was a wom
~Corey’s Point of View~ “It’s spread too quickly, I just don’t think we can contain it. We’ve already taken down over two thousand copies,” a voice said. I slammed my fist on the table. “We’re suing the damn hotel,” Slade said, fuming. “They’ll argue it was a public space, on their property,” Angie said. “It was NOT public, I was there at first. It was the middle of the fucking night. They had every reason to have an expectation of privacy. I even shut the door on my way out,” Slade said. I hadn’t even bothered to notice or give a shit at the time if the door was open. But Slade is always looking out for me. “How’s she doing,” Trey asked. “She’s fucking devastated. As if she hasn’t been through enough shit we gotta deal with this? If I could get that kid alone in a room I’d tear his goddamn head off. I’m used to people coming for me, trying to pull stuff on me. Extorting me for cash or whatever. But Pearl doesn’t deserve this. Hell I did what I did to distract her, she was w
~Pearl’s Point of View~ “You know you’re going to miss us fucking in this bunk,” Corey whispered, as he woke up and ran his hand down my back, grabbing my ass. I scoffed. “Miss the smells of living in a moving closet with like six other people,” I said, giving him a look. We had tiny little push lamps above our heads that gave just enough light if you needed it. Corey wanted the light on pretty much all the time. He said he had to be able to look at me. Okay so it was kinda cute. Like the millions of little things he said about me all the time that just made me melt. Last night after our last show he kissed me just as we got off stage and said the big word. Love. He said he loved me. Without hesitation, I said it right back. Then we found a closet to fuck our brains out in and well, I guess now I’m officially in love with Corey Feisty Pierce. “But now you’ll get me more to yourself,” I said, as I kissed him. He grunted and shifted us, then immediately began sucking on my nipple.
