Off Your Rocker?

by K E Osborn

  “Fuck me,” I say and he groans loudly and pulls my hair tightly. My core is reacting to him again and I start to tingle as a fine coat of sweat builds up over both of us. He’s pounding so hard the desk is banging against the wall, but I don’t care, I’m loving everything he’s giving me.

  “Fuck me, Colt,” I moan and he starts to breathe rapidly and is hissing through his teeth. I start to shake and my body tenses around his cock. “Colt, I’m close,” I say breathlessly as he pounds inside me hard. I start to convulse as the pleasure hits me and I feel him jolt.

  “Li...a…a...ahh,” he moans as he unloads inside me again, just as I tip over the edge and climax. I fall limp onto the table and he pulls me against him and we slide to the floor in pure ecstasy.

  He’s holding on to me tightly as we lay in bed. He’s on his back and I’m on my side cuddled into him. It’s been so long since we were able to just snuggle together in bed and I love every second of it. I trace circles on his chest as he strokes my hair softly. He leans in and plants a gentle kiss on my forehead and I look up at him and smile. He looks good, great even and I couldn’t be happier right now.

  He exhales and goes to say something, but he stops himself.

  “Hey, are you okay?” I ask, leaning on his chest and looking up at him.

  He smiles and nods. “Yeah baby, I’m great it’s just…” he trails off and looks up at the ceiling. Now I’m starting to become concerned. I sit up in the bed abruptly and he looks back at me.

  “Colt, talk to me,” I say and sit crossed legged on the bed next to him. He shuffles up and rests his back on the headboard of the bed and looks at me and frowns. I internally panic.

  “Okay, well, I’m an idiot, and I never should have let you go in the first place.”

  “It’s okay, we found our way back to each other. Believe me that’s all that matters to me.”

  He takes hold of my hand and looks me in the eyes. “Lia, it’s not okay. I acted like a complete moron and I pushed you away. I know it’s no excuse, but when you left to go and see your dad, I was so heartbroken that you blamed me for him being sick, I lost it, and every fibre of my being was craving you and you weren’t there. I thought you weren’t coming back. Hux was partying with Jessi…”

  I cringe at the mention of her name.

  “And I was missing you so bad—”

  “Colt you don’t have to—”

  “No, I want to, Lia. You have to understand that she meant absolutely nothing to me. She was only there because Hux wanted to get his end in. I was never going to sleep with her. I wouldn’t do that to you... ever. I know how much you hate her, and I don’t blame you. The crap she was spinning about me to the pap’s, just to get her singing career further was complete bullshit, Lia. She was never pregnant. We never slept together, not after I met you and I certainly never told her I was in love with her. In fact, I told her to keep away from me because it was upsetting you.” He moves toward me and takes me in an embrace. I melt into his arms and snuggle my face into his neck. “Baby, you mean everything to me and without you I lost control of who I’ve worked so hard to be,” he says stroking my hair. “I know I have issues and I have a lot to work on still, but as long as you’re here by my side, I can do anything. I just can’t handle being away from you. I’ve still got a long way to go, but I never want to be apart from you again, if you’ll have me?” he asks and my stomach flutters as happiness engulfs me. I look up at him and bite my bottom lip as I smile.

  “Colt, I forgive you. I did the moment I saw you in the penthouse suite and you’d overdosed. At that moment, I didn’t care about anything, except that you were being taken from me for good and the thought killed me. The thought of losing you and being without you forever, hurt way more than anything that happened leading up to it. You’re my forever, babe and there’s nothing that will tear us apart now. So you’re stuck with me until the end of time, whether you like it or not,” I say with a slight giggle. He smiles brightly and his lips crash to mine before I know what’s hit me. He lays me down on the bed and his entire body is on top of mine as he kisses me strongly and with passion. His lips slowly leave mine and he rests his forehead on mine and looks me in the eyes.

  “I wish I could remember everything about you, every touch, every kiss. There are so many memories I’ve lost of you and me. I mean I can’t even remember our first kiss, and that kills me, but from now on Lia I promise you that I’m going to remember everything. Every single thing you do and say, every time you touch me and tell me that you love me, because I don’t want to forget a single moment with you, Lia Norman. Every moment with you is as precious as it gets, and I can’t spend my life without you. Do you realise what today is?” he asks looking deep in my eyes. I think hard, but I’m drawing a blank. He smiles and runs his nose along mine. “It’s our one-year anniversary, baby. Happy Valentine’s Day,” he says. My eyes widen and my mouth drops open in shock. How did I not realise that his release day from the Priory was Valentine’s Day and our one-year anniversary? I guess I was so excited about him coming home that it didn’t even click what day it was. He chuckles as the shock is plastered all over my face.

  “Did you get my present this morning from Anna?” he asks moving in and kissing the corner of my mouth.

  “The flowers?” I ask with a smile. He nods and kisses down my cheek and onto my neck. “Thank you, they were beautiful, and you go on about your memory. I can’t even remember our anniversary. I haven’t got you anything, I feel bad,” I say and his lips detach from my neck.

  “Baby you being at the Priory to pick me up was the best gift in the world, well that and the fact that I’m lying on top of you and we’re both completely naked. I’m loving this gift.”

  Eventually, our stomachs outweigh the need to stay in bed cuddling, so we both get dressed and head downstairs. I can smell Joseph’s cooking the moment I hit the top of the staircase and my stomach rumbles. Colt laughs as he takes my hand in his and we walk down to the kitchen. We get to the bottom of the stairs and Danny spots us and starts clapping and cheering. We laugh and look at each other curiously as Joseph chuckles stirring something on the stove.

  “What a performance. You two really know how to rise to the occasion don’t ya?” Danny questions and I instantly blush. Colt laughs and wraps his arm around my shoulders.

  “How’s your desk, Lia? A bit banged up is it?” Joseph jokes and I cuddle into Colt’s side as he chuckles along with the other men in my life.

  “Shut up. You both probably got off on it or something anyway, so don’t say you didn’t enjoy it,” I reply.

  “We’re only kidding, princess. I’m just glad you guys finally sorted out your shit. Now for the serious question, did you take pics like I asked you to?” Danny asks and I scoff and pick up a hand towel and throw it at him.

  Joseph walks over and stands in front of us, with a serious look on his face. “Okay, so I know we’ve met a couple of times and we’ve never really gotten along, but I’ve been meaning to do this for a long time,” Joseph says and then slaps Colt hard across the face. I gasp and Colt looks back at Joseph bringing his hand to his cheek. “If you ever... and I mean ever... hurt my girl like that again, I swear to God I will kill you,” Joseph says pointing in Colt’s face. Colt exhales and nods his head, so not the reaction I thought he’d give.

  “Joseph, if I ever hurt her again, I will kill myself,” he replies pulling me to him and kissing my head.

  “Good,” Joseph says and then rubs his hand. “Okay, so I’m sorry for hitting you, but I had to do it because I told Lia I would and seeing as I’m the gay best friend, I had to follow through, but I’m really sorry and please don’t hit me back,” Joseph says suddenly seeming very sheepish and worried about how Colt might react.

  Colt laughs and sticks out his hand for Joseph to shake. “I’ll give you that one for free, but hit me again and I will knock you out,” Colt replies and then they shake hands.

  “Deal, and Jesus, I nearly broke m
y hand slapping your gorgeous face. What are you made of steel or something?” Joseph asks shaking his head and walking back to the stove.

  We laugh and I look up at Colt. ‘Thank you’ I mouth to him and he smiles leaning down to kiss me.

  The band had a four-month break where Colt and I were able to reconnect with each other. I attended some of his follow-up counselling sessions and he’s working really hard on the ‘I love you’ thing, but I’m still yet to hear it from him. I’ve gotten used to his version of, ‘I heart you’. It’s not as good as the real deal, but it’s better than not hearing anything at all. Colt and Hux sold their condo and Colt surprised me with a manor of our own, in a quiet and small village just a kilometre away from Norman Manor.

  Daddy still doesn’t like Colt and still wants me to be with Joseph, even though he finally told Daddy that he was gay and introduced him to Danny. Daddy thinks it’s just some stupid phase and that Joseph will realise that he loves me and is acting out because I’m with Colt. We all walked away at that point. Joseph and Danny opened their restaurant and it’s doing so well, they even had Jamie Oliver give it the seal of approval. Anna and Johnny bought a manor in the same town as ours and we see them at least once a week. Johnny and Colt, even though they are not recording or playing any shows they still jammed with each other every chance they got and sometimes Dingo and Hux would pop in, and if the mood would strike they’d sit down and create a song together.

  The hype from the paparazzi and fans after Colt and Hux got out of the Priory was massive, that’s mainly the reason why we moved from Joseph’s. They were on his doorstep nearly every day and it was interrupting their lives, so we moved and haven’t had much trouble since. Most of the fans have been supportive and say that they’re happy that Colt and Hux are sorting out their lives, but everyone is waiting for a reunion tour or a new album.

  Colt did an exclusive photo shoot and television interview with Oprah, who came out of retirement to do the interview. He talked all about his addiction and how he’s beating it with the help and support of his family and friends and of course his fans. The interview was a massive success and brought an amazing opportunity for the band.

  The guys had been on a break for eight months when Rob called Colt and gave him an offer he couldn’t refuse. The guys were getting bored, they had their time to recover and rest, but the music was creeping back into their veins and getting under their skin. Colt called us all together and announced the news we’d all been waiting to hear. Rob booked them a comeback concert. A one off, but it was going to be huge. Slayed would be performing in front of thousands at the American Super bowl almost one year after the band fell apart. For the last four months they’ve been madly rehearsing for the concert of the century. They will do a forty-five minute concert and it will start the hype buzzing for their new album which they’ve been putting together for the last four months while rehearsing.

  Anna’s doing so well. She and Johnny found out that they’re pregnant and she had a scan which revealed that she was having a boy. Colt and I were ecstatic for them and they asked us to be the Godparents, to which we gratefully accepted. It even got Colt and I talking about having a family. It’s a long way off, we still have so many hurdles to jump first, but at least we’re on the same page, and we agree that children will be in our future. We just have to get him to be able to tell me he loves me first.

  I’m at the rehearsal studio in New Jersey. We flew in a week ago to settle in and prepare for the re-launch of Slayed at this year’s Super bowl being held at the MetLife Stadium tomorrow. Anna’s sitting next to me as we watch the guys performing like they’ve never stopped. I’d almost forgotten how amazing they are. They get to the end of their latest song ‘Symphony’ which is a different sound for them, but one I love. It’s one of those awesome blended songs, where they have the hard rock, but with an orchestra in the background. I absolutely love it, and it just goes to show how much their music is improving and evolving, just like the band members.

  “Okay, I think we’re good guys,” Sia says as the song wraps up.

  Anna and I both clap and cheer which causes the guys to laugh at us. Colt smiles at me, and I look down at my forearm at my matching ‘L & C Until the End of Time’ tattoo and smile. I really am so beyond happy right now. My boyfriend’s about to perform again for the first time in a year, my best friend is pregnant and Joseph and Danny are so run off their feet with the restaurant that they’re looking at opening a second. Everything’s just going right. Warmth wraps around me as I look up and see Colt as he holds onto me tightly.

  “So, can I get an early anniversary present tonight?” he whispers in my ear seductively.

  “Well, Valentine’s Day is only a week away, surely you can wait till then?” I say raising my eyebrows at him, his mouth drops open in shock and I laugh.

  “Don’t worry, Mr. Slade will be getting laid tonight. I’ll just have to think of something special for the fourteenth,” I whisper as he raises his eyebrows and groans leaning in to kiss me.

  “Get a room,” Dingo calls out.

  “Good idea,” Colt says and takes my hand dragging me outside to a cab and back to our suite next to the penthouse at the Hyatt, where we make love for most of the night.

  I’m lying in the bed cuddled into Colt and just about to drift off.

  “You laughed,” Colt exclaims loudly like it’s a revelation and scaring the hell out of me. I jump and look up at him.

  “What?”

  “You laughed because I had a boner.”

  “What are you on about?”

  He looks deeply into my eyes. “Our first kiss, I remember – it was in the hallway of the club at the after party. I kissed you and you laughed at me because I had a massive hard on for you,” he says with a gigantic smile.

  “Wow, you do remember,” I say surprised.

  He nods. “I told you I want to try to remember every second of time we have together. I can’t believe I forgot that for so long,” he says leaning down and kissing me starting another round of love making.

  We’re at the MetLife Stadium and we hear the final siren concluding this year’s Super bowl. The crowd goes mental and Anna and I look at each other and smile. Colt looks over at me and for the first time I think I see nervousness in his expression. He’s trying to get the shoulder strap hooked up to his guitar, but he seems to be failing miserably. I walk over and take the strap from him. He looks at me and his rapid breathing slows.

  “Babe, I know you’re nervous, but you’re going to be amazing. You guys have been practicing for months and you know what you’re doing. Just take a deep breath and don’t think about the fans and whether they’ll like it or not. You know the music is the best you guys have done, so just play for you. Remember how much you love performing and just perform,” I say handing him back his strap. He smiles and hooks the strap in first time.

  “What would I do without you?” He leans in and kisses my head.

  “Fall into a pit of endless despair and depression wasting your days away watching cartoons and drinking beer. Oh and don’t forget the continuous farting.”

  “I watch cartoons, drink beer and fart now. How will it be any different?”

  “You forgot the endless pit of despair and depression, that’s the difference.”

  “Right, so just add pizza and I can wallow in my own filth and think of the days when I was rooting this hot chick, whose name was Lia.”

  My mouth drops open in mock shock. “So, I’m just a root now, am I?” I ask putting my hands on my hips, but I can’t hide my smile.

  “Well, you’re okay! I guess I can keep you around for a little while longer,” he says. “I heart you,” he whispers softly rubbing his nose along mine.

  “I love you, too,” I reply and he smiles kissing me again.

  “Right, it’s time to rock guys,” Rob calls out clapping his hands together. I look at Colt and the nervousness in his eyes vanishes and is replaced with pure excitement.


  “Go on rock God, go and show the world what they’ve been missing out on.” I slap his arse as he walks off. He turns back to look at me and I smile and give him two thumbs up. He nods and then walks out with the rest of the band.

  Anna and Sia walk across and all three of us move out to the side of the stage. We’re in our own private area which Johnny arranged, he didn’t want anyone near Anna while she’s pregnant, especially with the crowds that we’re expecting, which will go crazy once they see Slayed back together on stage.

  I feel like a school girl. It’s almost like I’m back at that first concert, in London where I’d just met Colt and the band. I hardly knew Anna and Sia, and I had no idea what I was getting myself into. It feels like a lifetime ago, and as I stand here listening to the crowd going absolutely mental I find myself thinking of my life so far with Colt. It’s been rocky that’s for sure. Was I off my rocker, dropping everything and going on tour with the world’s greatest rock band? Yeah probably, but it’s a decision that I’m so thankful for.

  “And the moment the world has been waiting for. The band who’s gone multi-platinum. The band who brought you the world’s biggest songs ‘Rapture’ and ‘Until the End of Time,’ The band who’s going to rock your socks off. Get ready MetLife Stadium for Slayed,” an announcer says over the PA system.

  The crowd cheer and stomp their feet and with the over eighty two thousand capacity stadium filled to the brim with fans. It’s loud! A thrill of excitement rolls through me and I can’t help but jump up and down as Dingo starts the drum beat. This has been a long time coming. Practically a year in the making and the whole world is watching. Hux walks out on stage and the crowd cheers, he’s soon followed by Johnny and again the crowd cheers. Johnny and Hux start the chords to the beginning of ‘Rapture’ and Colt finally walks out and the stadium explodes with noise, people are cheering, clapping, stomping, generally making as much noise as they can, and it’s all for Colt. I’m so proud of him right now, he’s come so far. He walks up to the microphone and smiles devilishly. He’s in the zone and my panties are now soaking as are the panties of most of the women in the stadium.
