"Well, it's a great song, and you sounded great...especially after they surprised you like that." She smiled at Kaylee and the rest of the guys. "We look forward to more from Miles of Pleasure in the near future. You'll have to come back and see us again soon." She winked at Noah, then turned to face the camera. "And now here's a video from Weezer."
The camera cut out again, and she got up to hug them all and thank them for coming. Seeing that Noah had been too chicken to invite Janis out with them that night, Kaylee took over.
"Hey, we were wondering if you wanted to come out with us tonight. We were thinking of some seedy bar that had karaoke, then maybe a club or something?" Kaylee asked her after she pulled her aside, away from the group.
Without hesitation, Janis agreed to go, quickly looking at Noah.
Kaylee laughed. "Yes, my brother will be there too. Just don't hurt him. He's been through a lot lately," she warned.
Janis nodded and took Kaylee's phone number so that she could call her later, once the plans were finalized. Kaylee waved goodbye as she followed the guys back to the green room.
She entered the room, chanting over and over, "Noah's got a date tonight, Noah's got a date tonight!" The guys all laughed when he got flustered. They gathered all of their belongings and made their way down to the limo that was waiting to take them back to the hotel.
During their ride back to the hotel, they decided where and when they wanted to go out, so Kaylee would be able to give Janis the firm plans when she called. The guys also made plans to go out for dinner.
"Um, I think we're going to skip dinner tonight guys," Kaylee said, getting a questioning look from Ashton. "I was kind of thinking of ordering room service," she said with a smile.
Once inside their room, Kaylee put the 'Do Not Disturb' sign on the door. When she came back in, Ashton was lying across the bed, a playful look on his face.
"So, you wanted me all to yourself?" he asked her.
"Well, I really don't want anyone else watching what I'm going to do to you or what we are going to do together," Kaylee said saucily. "But you have to be gentle. I'm still a little sore from last night."
He pulled her into his arms. "I'll do whatever you want me to," he told her, kissing her neck and driving her crazy already.
"Then what are you waiting for, make love to me!" she begged, as he sucked on her neck, knowing just the right spot to set her off.
Ashton took his time undressing Kaylee, who was getting very impatient. He pulled her bra strap down slowly - too slowly for her. He unbuttoned her jeans with a slow-as-molasses motion, one that made her more frustrated than turned on.
"Dammit, Ashton, please!" she finally exploded.
"I think I like the little nympho that I turned you into," he laughed as she pushed him away and quickly finished undressing. He watched as she struggled with demin and straps and buttons, grinning all the while. The fact that she wanted him so much, and wanted him without a wait, was one of the most awesome things he had ever experienced. Ashton rid himself of his clothes quickly too, while she finished with hers.
Just as he was ready to climb onto the bed, Kaylee stopped him. She gave him a look of such intensity that he knew what she was going to do before she made any move to do it. Just the thought of it was enough to make him short of breath.
She knelt before him and took him into her mouth, eliciting a moan from Ashton. The first few times she had done this, he had given her instruction on what felt good; that instruction was definitely no longer needed. She played him with her newfound skills, and he decided she was an absolutely excellent learner. When she thought he was getting close, she backed away and lay back on the bed.
The look in her eyes was unmistakable as Ashton prepared himself before lying on top of her. She stared up at him, her eyes wide with happiness and a smile on her face. Had anyone else ever wanted him so much? He had so often been the guy all the women wanted to fuck but nobody ever really wanted to love. Now he had it all right here with Kaylee, and it was like an addiction.
She wasn't the only one who felt like a nympho, he thought as he looked down at her.
The intense love between them was evident, not only in their everyday lives, but also in the connection they felt when they made love. It was more than Kaylee could have ever hoped for, and because of this, Ashton was right -- he had turned her into a nympho. She wanted him so much that it was almost all she could think about. His body was her own personal candy store.
He kissed her deeply and passionately as he entered her. Kaylee lifted her hips toward him, inviting him in deeper. Ashton chuckled at the eager way she wrapped her legs around his hips. "Want me deep, don't you?" he whispered, his breath hot against her ear.
"Deeper," she agreed, reaching out to grab his hips, but Ashton had a better idea. He thrust into her harder, then harder still, until she was clenching at his shoulders with her nails and begging him over and over to never, ever stop. The pleasure was mounting in her body, building up slowly, only to be sent over the edge when Ashton picked her legs up and bent them over his shoulders.
His next thrust took him deeper than ever, and that was enough to send her zooming toward the edge of pleasure. She cried out with both surprise and pleasure as he thrust hard.
"Like that?" he panted, and she couldn't even nod. She just moaned in pleasure. She couldn't hold out any longer and gave in to her release, yelling so loudly that Ashton had to quickly put his hand over her mouth.
Seeing her enjoy herself so much was all it took to trigger his own release. She watched as he came inside her, his hips pressed hard against her, his back arched and his head thrown back. He clenched his teeth and moaned loudly, then slowly opened his eyes when it was over.
"Wow," he said, and all Kaylee could do was laugh.
After carefully pulling out of her and going to the bathroom to clean up, Ashton came back to lie next to Kaylee, both of them still panting in the aftermath. Kaylee was suddenly exhausted, as though the orgasm had flipped a switch in her, one that said it was definitely time for lights-out. She cuddled against his sweaty body, her heart soaring with the intense emotion between them, thankful for his love. She wanted to tell him all that she was feeling, but one yawn later she was sound asleep, and soon after that, so was he.
Chapter 23
Outside of the hotel, Kaylee sat in the limo waiting for the guys so that they could leave to pick Janis up. They had been signing autographs for at least fifteen minutes now, and she was getting antsy. She understood that they had an obligation to the fans, but sitting in a limo all alone tends to get boring when there is nothing to keep a person occupied.
Kaylee put her hand on the door handle, getting ready to go outside and see what was taking the guys so long, only to have the door yanked out of her grasp. Ashton was on the other side, followed by Noah, Colton, and Jayden. "Let us in before they attack!" he shouted playfully, diving into the limo.
Noah got into the limo, nearly stepping on Ashton's hand on the way in. "Would you move so the rest of us can get in?" he snapped at Ashton.
"Well, excuse me!" Ashton said, offended. He reached up and grabbed Kaylee's hand and pulled her to the other seat with him. Once they were both out of the way, the other two guys got in and they headed off to pick up Janis.
"You look a little pale Noah. You okay man?" Ashton teased.
Kaylee smacked him in the chest. "Leave him alone. This is the first girl he's been interested in since Brittany."
"Ugh! Please don't mention her name. I want to have a nice night, and thinking about her will just ruin it," Noah groaned.
The limo soon came to a stop. Noah wiped his sweaty palms on his jeans and took a deep breath before opening the door of the limo and heading out to get Janis.
While they were waiting, Ashton decided to break the silence. "So we were talking earlier, and we've made a decision," he said to Kaylee. The other guys watched intently.
"Oh yeah, what's that?" she asked, not really paying atten
tion, as she tried to see out the window to look for Noah and Janis. She worried about her big brother and hoped that he would have a good time with this new love interest.
"Well, we want you to officially join the group, and be with us for more songs than just 'Helpless'. Noah has figured out a way to work you in on each song, and it all makes perfect sense. We all think that you'll be able to add something that we've been missing." He paused. "I mean, yeah we were popular before, but if we kept going the way we were, we probably would have stayed semi-famous, but we never would have joined the ranks of the major bands out there. You'll be adding something that we feel could bring us up to that next level. So, what do you say?"
Needless to say, Ashton had her full attention now. "I say that you guys are insane!" she told him, giving them all looks of disbelief. As she was talking, Noah and Janis got into the vehicle, Janis sitting next to Kaylee, and Noah sitting on the other seat next to Colton.
"I mean, first of all, I barely even know how to play the guitar, and second, my voice is shit. It's embarrassing enough that my voice will be on the album in 'Helpless', but now you want me join in other songs too? Why are you doing this? Is it out of pity?"
"Pity?" Noah asked. "Come on. You know us better than that. We truly believe that you belong with us on that stage. You really added something to 'Helpless', and we think you could add something to all of our other songs too," he told her. "Besides, you'll have me working with you on guitar. Who better to teach you?"
"I don't know guys," she hesitated. If she was honest with herself, she would have admitted that she got a rush when she was on stage with the guys, and she would love to be up there playing with them for more than just one song.
"I know I'm not a part of the group or anything, but as an outside observer who knows music, I have to agree with the guys," Janis told her, then turned to the guys. "I've always liked your music, but it was something different when you guys played in our studio. It sounded more complete, more refined. I think that Kaylee would make an excellent addition."
"See, it's settled then," Colton said. He didn't want to fight over this.
"No, it's really not. I don't think you guys are thinking clearly here." Kaylee protested.
"Fine, we'll put it to a vote tonight at the karaoke bar. You against me. If the crowd votes for you, then you'll join the band full time. If the crowd votes for me, then you'll just have to be with us during 'Helpless'. We'll do three songs each. You pick two for me, I'll pick two for you. Then we'll pick one for ourselves," Ashton told her in a stroke of brilliance. "But, we have to be satisfied with whatever the audience decides."
Kaylee pondered this for a moment. Surely no one would pick her over Ashton, so what harm would there be? "Fine, but we have to go by how the audience votes. If you win, you need to stop pestering me about being in the group."
"Done," he said, and held out his right hand.
"I'd rather seal the deal with a kiss," Kaylee said with a smirk, and grabbed the front of his shirt, pulling him closer to her.
"I like the way you think," he told her, before pressing his lips to hers.
The guys all groaned, getting annoyed with all of their public displays of affection, but Janis just smiled. She looked over at Noah and winked at him, loving the blush that spread across his face when they made eye contact.
Soon after, they arrived at a small karaoke club. From the outside, the building looked old and dirty but once you got inside, it was amazingly clean and modern. The stage was large and had a few microphones already set up, with a teleprompter to show the words for the songs.
On the opposite end was a long bar, lined with barstools and patrons waiting on their drinks. From what they could see, the bar was shined to perfection, and the bartenders working like well-oiled machines. In the middle of the room, tables were scattered everywhere, most of them full already. There was also a small sitting area off to the side, with a few leather couches and coffee tables.
The guys saw a couple of tables available next to each other, to the right of the stage, and made a bee line for them. They pushed the tables together, making room for everyone to sit. A waiter circulated the room, and finally made it over to them to take their order. Once he left, Kaylee lightly grabbed Janis's arm.
"Hey, can I get your help for a minute?" she asked Janis. Janis nodded, and they both got up from the table. "I need some help picking out Ashton's songs, and since you know music so well, I was hoping you could help me out."
She smiled. "No problem. I figured you'd ask me, so I was already thinking about it. I was thinking about your song that you get to pick out too. Do you want to win or lose?"
Kaylee thought for a minute. "Lose," she lied. "I just don't think I would be any good for them."
"Well, I think you're wrong, but here's what we're going to do. I was thinking that you should sing a song that is so difficult that even some of the professionals have trouble singing it. You know, one of the songs where the original artist sounds so good on the song that no one could ever rival the way that they sound," Janis explained.
"That sounds perfect. What did you have in mind?" Kaylee asked, flipping through the list of songs that the karaoke deejay offered.
Janis took the book and flipped to the front. "That one right there," she pointed.
"Wow, you're really trying to make me look bad!" Kaylee laughed. "Okay, and what about for Ashton?"
"Well, we want to make him sound really good. I think this song right here would be perfect for the first one." She pointed to another song.
"What about this one right here...it's one of my favorites." Kaylee pointed out another one.
"Perfect. Now give the list of songs to the guy and let's go get our drinks," Janis said, giving a song of her own to the deejay.
Back at the table, Ashton was writing fast, hoping to finish his list before Kaylee got back. Just as he finished writing the last song, she walked up and put her hand on his shoulder. He jumped from being startled, and quickly covered his list. He smiled at her sweetly as he stood up and went to hand in his list.
Kaylee saw that a round of shots had been lined up in the center of the table, as well as their regular drinks. She took her glass of "Sex on the Beach" and slammed it, then grabbed her shot and took it with ease. As the liquid went down her throat, it also melted some of her nervousness.
Moments later, Kaylee saw Ashton get up on stage and grab one of the microphones. "Good evening everyone. My name is Ashton and I am a member of the band Miles of Pleasure. We have a favor to ask of you tonight. My girlfriend and I have a little bet going on, where we are going to sing three songs each, and we need for you to judge whom you like better. We've picked two songs for the other person, one for ourselves. The waiters will be handing out slips of paper, so if you could just write down which one you liked better after we are all done, and drop it off at our table, we'd appreciate it. For everyone who votes, you'll get a free drink from us." The crowd roared in applause at the last comment, loving the extra incentive to participate in the bet.
"So, without further ado, please welcome Kaylee Miles to the stage, singing 'Spider Webs' by No Doubt."
The crowd applauded as Kaylee stood up and went to the stage. She was happy that Ashton had at least picked a song that she knew and liked. The music started, and Kaylee got right into it.
You think that we connect
That the chemistry's correct
Your words walk right through my ears
Presuming I like what I hear
And now I'm stuck in the web
You're spinning
You've got me for your prey...
She started jumping up and down as she sang, really getting the crowd into it.
Kaylee ended the song to a round of applause, causing her to blush. She tried to catch her breath before she announced Ashton's song. "Thanks. Now please give it up for Ashton singing 'Are You Gonna Be My Girl' by Jet," she shouted, a little breathless still.
Ashton ca
me up to the stage and winked at her as she went down the back stairs and grabbed the bottle of water that Jayden had waiting for her. "Ashton told me you'd need this," he said. "You were great!"
Kaylee shook her head and downed the water. Ashton was right, she did need that. She made her way back to their table, where she had a clear view of Ashton up on stage, getting ready to sing. He looked so calm and collected, it made her a little envious since she was so nervous on stage.
Let's Go!!
So 1, 2, 3, take my hand and come with me
Because you look so fine
And I really wanna make you mine
I say you look so fine
That I really wanna make you mine.
The crowd seemed equally impressed with Ashton as they were with Kaylee. He could see everyone leaning over and talking to their friends, most likely discussing who they liked better so far.
The next song that Ashton had picked for Kaylee was 'Heartbreaker' by Pat Benetar, and she went up and sang it like a total rock star! When she announced that Ashton would sing a Matchbox 20 song next, he couldn't help but smile. He knew that Janis had picked out his first song, but 'Bent' by Matchbox 20 was all Kaylee. He knew she had a little obsession with that band, so it was no surprise that he was singing one of their songs. He was also glad that she had chosen one that gave him a rest period. His first song required a lot of energy, and he knew that his last song would need some energy too, so he needed a break in between.
He sat at the table and waited for Kaylee to start her last song, the one she had picked for herself.
