Rafe (15 page)

“Ok, one more people. Do a funny pic. One my count three, two, one. Go!”

I do the rock on sign while Lucy does the peace sign. Trin and Ryder fist pump. Gunner sticks his tongue in Maisey’s ear and she pokes her tongue out. I hear a squeal behind me. Once the photo is taken I turn to see, Reeve, Skeet, Beck and Zach all holding Kenzie, who is laying across their arms. These photos are going to be awesome. Marking a fucking epic weekend.

We spend most of the day at the beach. We laugh, play around and just have some R&R. We invited the photo couple w
ho we now know are called Paul and Jenny to the gig tonight as a thank you for taking the photos. I had Lucy send the photos over to me so I can set my lock screen as our picture.

We head back to the bus again and we all get showered and changed in turn, ready for our last show tonight. Me and the guy
’s head out to the club and leave the girls to get ready. I have been told by Maisey that Lucy will knock my socks off with tonight’s outfit. We enter the club and people have already started drinking and the room is filling up. We don’t go on for another two hours so the girls had better be quick. Zach is on pins being here without Kenzie, not that I blame him because as soon as we enter the club girls swarm to us and pay Zach a lot of attention. I order shots for everyone and a beer. We chill before we go on, as our equipment is still set up from last night and I know that Brax checked to make sure everything was fine this afternoon.

A girl slides up to my side and runs her hands down my chest. I raise an eyebrow at her but she doesn’t take the hint. I see Zach’s head snap up and then I hear her.

“Honey, if you want to keep your hand I suggest you remove it from my boyfriend’s chest. Right fucking now.” I turn my head to see Lucy standing there with all her girls right behind her offering her girl power.

I lower my eyes to the sparkly dress and heels she is wearing. Oh fuck, I swear she is gonna be the death of me.

Chapter 15

Lucy

“Honey, if you want to keep your hand I suggest you remove it from my boyfriend’s chest. Right fucking now.” I am so sick of this shit. I know that Rafe has a past with groupies but they need to back the hell off, he is taken now and they need to keep their distance.

“Excuse me, who the fuck do you think you are? I suggest you walk away little girl and leave these boys with us big girls.” She smirks at me, and runs her hands down Rafe’s chest. He backs away and moves to stand behind me, placing his hands on my hips. “You’re fucking with me, right? You can't be seriously taking this trashy little thing over me, baby. You told me that I was your Vista Baby. Why don’t you let me take care of you just the way you like it, Rafe because I know that she can’t satisfy you, baby.” I step forward but Rafe holds me back by my waist and whispers in my ear.

“She isn’t worth it, baby. Let it go.” I turn my head to face him, and when he sees the anger all over my face from him telling me to let it go he loosens his grip.  I turn back to the groupie slut or as she calls herself ‘Rafe’s Vista Baby', and let loose.

“Listen to here you fucking bitch, you and all these other groupie sluts will never get Rafe, ever. I have been satisfying Rafe for long enough to know that he is very happy in that department. Now you and every other girl here needs to know that I’m Rafe’s girlfriend and I am not going anywhere, so just do me a favor and fuck off.” I hear sniggers behind me and turn to see my friends all laughing and the girls high-five each other. Ryder winks at me and gives me a quick nod. He turns his ball cap backwards. God, he is simply stunning just like Rafe and Reeve.

Brax comes walking past the girl and whispers in Reeve ear, who nods at him. He motions with his head for us to follow him we follow him to the back room again. Brax is waiting by the door for us.

“Just chill boys, you have one hour before you go on.” He turns and leaves up the back stairs.

Rafe sits on the leather couch and pulls me into his lap. I nuzzle his neck and then bite his earlobe. Zach is sitting next to us with Kenzie on his lap. I think it’s time to learn more about Mr. Zach Ceronio. I tap his shoulder and he stops kissing my best friend, turns me to and smiles his panty dropping smile.

“So, Zach, what are your intensions with my best friend? What are your feeling towards her?” I ask, keeping a straight face even though I’m dying to laugh.

“Oh shit,” I hear Kenzie mutter under her breath from Zach’s neck. He lifts her head to look at me.

Zach takes a deep breath, “It’s hard.” He smiles at Kenz and looks back at me. “I will never hurt her, Lucy. Not on purpose anyway, I have fallen hard for Red. She is my heart, Coop and as long as she will have me I will always be here for her. Not only her but for all of you. You girls are her family, so that makes you mine too.” I feel tears spring to my eyes and I smile at him. I leap off Rafe’s lap and hug Zach and Kenzie. I grab Zach’s face and kiss his lips in a quick peck. I hear Rafe growl from behind me but laugh and wave my hand dismissively at him.

“Chill out, Phoenix, I belong to you. Now you Mr C, just made my heart melt. You had better treat her good or you will face me and all my girls, you get me?” He smiles at me and nods. Rafe pulls me back into him and I kiss him just to remind him that I am his and no one else’s.

I look around the room and see all of my friends. Maisey and Gunner are happy, Kenzie and Zach are happy, god even Jack is happy with his boyfriend of four months now, Jordan. I have met him a few times and he seems smitten with my boy. So it’s just Trinity. I can see her watching Beck playing pool with Ryder. She is pretending to look at her phone but she is watching him from under her lashes. They are into each other but too damn stubborn to make the first move. I have been told that Beck was hurt a while back and won’t take a girlfriend again. He is happy whoring around, but I also know that Trin is looking for long term. The guy from her work has been showing interest but she seems reluctant to let him get close. Alex seems like a cool guy; shy, but fun to talk to.

Skeet and Reeve are in a totally different world. Both of them revolve around sex and music and I know that on more than one occasion they have taken the same girl. Reeve and Skeet like to share. I walked in on them on the one day after going to their apartment to wait for Rafe, he gave me a key. I walked in on Reeve taking the girl from behind; she was on her knees and sucking off Skeet. That vision was burned into my memory and for days I couldn’t even look at them. Rafe was pissed that I walked in on them, he was shouting at them to keep it to the bedroom from now on. I told Rafe that it is their place so technically they could do what they wanted.

The door opens and Brax steps in. “Fifteen minutes, boys. You know what to do.” He nods and leaves the room again, causing the club's music to fade once more.

Rafe taps my thigh, “I need to get up, baby.” I climb off his lap and walk over to the girls and boys by the door.

Rafe, Ryder and Reeve put their heads together and place their arms around each other. Reeve speaks first. “Always remember, never forgot. We will never forget you, Pops.”

Ryder chimes in. “We are taking it to the stage just like you always wanted. We will bring the noise
, Pops.” I feel my throat tighten.

Rafe takes a deep breath, “We are using our Inside Noise always but now we are sharing it with more people that we love. Inside Noise, always Pops. Love you.”

I quickly wipe the tears that have escaped before they turn around. I feel arms wrap around my waist and turn to Trinity. She smiles and kisses my cheek.  “Well fuck me, girl on girl action. Let’s get to it ladies.” And the moment is ruined, thanks to Skeet Reynolds.

“Nice, dude. Ruin the sentimental moment, why don’t you. Fucktard,” Reeve says as the Phoenix boys head our way. Rafe sees my face and a look of concern crosses his face. I smile up at him and lean in to kiss him.

“Baby, I’m fine. Let’s get this show started.” I smile seductively at him and walk out the door, and as I walk away I put a little extra sway of my hips. I follow everyone out as I feel arms grip my waist and pull me back against a hot hard body.

“Don’t tempt me, Snowflake. I really don’t want to go on stage with a raging hard-on.” He thrusts his dick against my ass to prove his point. He walks us forward still gripping my waist. We stop by the side of the stage where Ryder and Reeve are waiting for Rafe.

The boys are geared up and ready to hit the stage. Tonight Reeve is wearing a black short sleeved button down with black skinny jeans and boots. Ryder is wearing his typical black Chucks with black jeans and a black wife beater which is what Ryder always wears to perform and his ball cap twisted on backwards. Now Rafe, my sexy as hell boyfriend, is wearing his black Converse with black jeans that aren’t too tight tonight but he is wearing a tight ass black V-neck tee which just hugs his perfect chest and arms. He has it tucked in a little at his belt buckle which to me is just sexy as hell. They are all wearing their black leather Phoenix wrist band.

“Have a great show, baby. I’m gonna go sit with the guys, ok?” I give him a quick kiss but Rafe
deepens it. Ryder taps my butt with his drumsticks and I squeal. “Shit, Ry,” I laugh and kiss Rafe once more. I wink at Ryder and head to everyone sitting at our VIP table. I slide in next to Gunner, who has Maisey sitting on the other side of him. Zach, Kenzie and Trinity are on the other side of the table. Skeet is standing by the side of the stage with Brax; he is like an unofficial bodyguard. Beck is at the bar getting drinks. I check my KIK app on my phone while waiting for Inside Noise to take to the stage. I see a KIK message from Leah, my little Welsh friend.

Leah: I miss you, Juicy. How are things with you and Rafe?

I smile at her nickname for me. I told her what Tru calls me and she loved it, so it stuck. I send a quick reply.

Me: I miss you, Welsh Cake. Things are epic, honey. I am at one of their gigs right now. I will take a photo and send it to you when they come on stag
e
.

I hit send. I wave to Trin to get her attention but she is glaring at the bar, I follow her gaze and see Beck flirting with a brunette. I click my fingers at her and she turns to me.

“Take a pic of me.” I stand and turn my back to the stage. You can see Ryder’s drum set with the Inside Noise/Phoenix sign on it. I pose and Trin takes a photo. Gunner and Zach jump up to stand on each side of me and we all pose. Trin takes another photo and we sit back down. I send it off to Leah and take a drink. The lights dim and I feel the hair stand on the back of my neck again. I turn towards the stage and see my man take to the stage. The girls scream just like they always did. The beat starts and builds and builds. The lights hit each boy and the crowd goes wild. As we sit and listen to Inside Noise play, I feel so fucking proud of my man up there. It’s clear to anyone who comes to see these guys that they will go very far in the music industry.

I see a girl walk towards our table, smiling at us. I smile back but turn to look at Gunner who just shrugs. Great, thanks for the help dude.

She stops right next to me, with a sweet smile on her face. “Hi.”

“Hi,” I reply.

“Are you dating one of the members of the band?” I nod yes and she smiles. “Which one? Because I don’t want to come between you guys, that’s so not cool when girls do that.” Ok, so she seems nice and I kind of respect her for not wanting to be with a guy who is already in a relationship.

“I’m with, Rafe,” I nod towards the stage, which now come to think of it, seems lame because she knows who Rafe is. Her smile broadens and she claps her hands together like a five year old girl getting a new doll.

“That’s awesome. Can you introduce me to Reeve please? I so want to meet him; he is so damned fucking sexy up there singing.”  I smile at her, she seems sweet in a groupie kind of way. All blond hair, barely there clothes with legs that go all the way up and mega high heels. She is pretty and I know that Reeve is going to want to share her with Skeet. I wonder if she knows they share.
