Ch. 2 โInterlude
Although this story stands on its own, reading the first chapter will definitely help you understand the context a little better...
After that amazing first kiss with Chris, my mind was totally fogged up. I couldn't quite realize that I had finally made out with the man of my (wet) dreams until we'd both cum. I don't remember much about getting ready for dinner, just rush rush rush as first Rocks then Richard tried to propel us all into faster movement.
For once, that irritating Inner Voice of mine was completely silent. Still in shock, I guess. Good riddance.
I could feel a vast whirling emptiness inside myself, sweeping me up in giddy energy. I was on top of the world. Amazing what a good strong ejaculation can do to lift your mood!
But more than that first embrace, it was the vast realm of possibilities that had suddenly opened which had me reeling. Oh Lord.
My rather abstract longing, comfortingly familiar from all my restless nights of the past few months, had suddenly morphed into something way too real for me to fully comprehend. As if that nameless monster from under your bed suddenly came up to you in the middle of the day for a coffee and a chat. Surreal. For the moment, I couldn't think straight about consequences or even where I wanted all this to head.
Once more, inside the van. Except that this time, I wasn't frustrated out of my mind. Discreetly, I observed my fellow band members. Chris looked... Actually, he looked like the way I felt. Shell-shocked. He answered my smile with a timid one. At least he wasn't mad or ignoring me.
Rocks seemed suspicious. I caught his gaze sliding between Chris and I a few times and he got this weird speculative look.
Speculative, yeah!
followed by a rude snort.
Great. Just when I thought that the Voice was gone, it was back. Besides, I didn't think Inner Voices could snort or be vulgar. I mean, weren't those things supposed to be, like... consciences or something. All Godly and stuff?
Another snort followed by mad laughter. Oh, right. Crazy people have Inner Voices too.
Anyway, why wouldn't Rocks have sensed something going on? I asked myself. I'd always pegged him as not-that-quick-to-catch-on-but-a-great-guy. Never thought I'd describe our brawny drummer as speculative. Maybe there was more depth to him than I'd imagined... Time would tell. For now, there was nothing I could do.
Twisting in my seat, I noted that Jake and Angie looked sort-of flushed and breathless. So they'd been having sex too.
"Will you stop it?!? You're making me nervous, staring at us like that!"
Jake snapping curtly at me was pretty out of character for the normally smooth guy.
"Sorry..." I responded sheepishly.
Actually, now that I paid closer attention, Jake seemed rather pissed and his body language was tense. I revised my judgment. Make that interrupted sex. Richard must have needed a shower too. Guess we weren't the only ones who sheltered a waterless-room hobo...
Staring out the foggy window again, I let my mind drift. Bits of what had just happened floated randomly around my conscience. Chris' eyes, half-lidded. His strong fingers curled around the edge of the counter. My breathing, all fucked up. The hot humid steam from the shower washing over us. My hard-on, pushing against him. His hard-on, pressing back. The salty taste of his skin. Wish I hadn't been so caught up in my own pleasure to notice his orgasm.
Shit! Stop it, idiot!
Too late, I answered the Voice wryly. I'd managed to work myself once more into a quivering mass of need. What was wrong with me?
Stupid Stupid Stupid! Remember?
Shut up, I told it crossly, readjusting myself as inconspicuously as I could. I
knew
I shouldn't have worn leather.
It was raining when we finally stopped. Drenching, actually. And freezing cold, with nasty gusts of wind that whipped my hair into my eyes. We hurried into some fancy restaurant, complete with a stuck-up
maรฎtre d'
who pinched his lips in disapproval of our rockin' appearance. He even walked with a brisk, prim stride, back straight as a ruler.
Wonder what he'd look like with a 12 inch dildo up his ass?
I managed to turn my chortle into a somewhat passable cough but I knew my eyes were twinkling. Chris must have guessed approximately what I was thinking, cause he winked at me, making a rude hand gesture and we both spent the next minute or two trying not to look at each other so as not to crack up.
To distract myself, I studied the people we were seated with as they were introduced to me.
Limp handshake. Boring. Balding, conservative tie.
Sweaty handshake. Eeww. And here I thought they'd stopped making moustaches like those back in the 80's.
Firm handshake, actually quite nice. Long, masculine fingers. Salt and pepper hair, aging with class. Nice frank eyes.
Great enveloping handshake. Huge, meaty hand. And a cowboy hat? Fer Chrissakes, who wears a wide-brimmed Stetson to a chic restaurant??? Bet stuffy
Maitre d'
pursed his lips at that one!
