It’s like a weird girl thing.” He ran his hand along the back of her arm.
    “The hot drummer, huh. So you think I’m hot?” He raised an eyebrow at her, which made her burst out laughing.
    “You know you are, or you wouldn’t have had your shirt off.”
    “It was a publicity ploy, not my idea. And I think you are beautiful.” He couldn’t help but say it out loud because she was.
    “I bet you say that to every girl you bring back here.”
    “Nope, never had a girl back here. And to be honest with you, normally if I wanted a girl, not much talking would be going on. But there is something interesting about you.”
    “Me, really I’m not special.”
    “There is something to you, Skylar. Tell me what you do, tell me about yourself.”
    “Please call me Sky, my mother use to call me Skylar when I was in trouble. And I’m pretty boring. I’m an ER nurse, and a single mother to a six-year-old boy. Other than that, I don’t go out, ever. Well except for tonight, that’s because Casey bribed my normal babysitter and begged to the point I felt bad. So yeah. You can leave when you want.” She smiled but then looked down at her hands. Joey didn’t understand why she was now shutting him out. Lifting her chin, he looked her in the eyes.
    “Why would I leave? I thought we were talking and having a good time.”
    “The whole single mother thing normally scares people away.” A sad smile flashed across her face.
    “Not me, I think it’s amazing that you are doing something as hard as raising a child by yourself. Most people aren’t strong enough to do that.” He shifted in his seat until he had one leg turned allowing him to look directly at her.
    “You know, you’re nothing like I thought you would be. I heard that drummers are…”
    “Asses, bastards, something like that? I normally am, trust me, baby. I’m a huge jackass, but something about you calms me. You sure you aren’t some weird witch, or did you put something in my water. I’m never this calm.” He was starting to get worried that something was wrong with him. He was a good time man. He played, got drunk, and screwed anything that he could get into when he needed some relief. But he was content just sitting on a damn couch talking with Sky. That didn’t mean he wasn’t thinking about stripping her down and burying his dick into her sweet honey, but there was something so much more to her. It made him want to be a better person. Now he was thinking there really could be something seriously wrong with him.
    “Nope, just plain, old, boring me.”
    “Not plain, old, or boring at all.” He moved a piece of hair away from her face and held onto her cheek. Her skin was soft and smooth, he couldn’t help marvel at it. Her breath caught and her pupils dilated. She was affected by him just as he was with her. Taking a chance, he lowered his mouth to hers slowly. Gently swiping his lips along hers, planting a soft sweet kiss. When she seemed to relax a little more he moved his hand into her hair, pulling her a little closer, pressing harder on her mouth. He licked her lower lip.
    “Open for me, Sky,” he growled with need. She seemed to feel it too as she opened her mouth. He took that moment to claim her fully.
    Sky didn’t know what the hell had come over her. She was just going to talk, but here she was lost in kissing Joey, whom she had only know for a short time. But that didn’t stop the ache in her pussy. It had been so long since she had sex, let alone had an orgasm that wasn’t self-induced. Joey had one hand in her hair holding her exactly where he wanted her, while his other hand moved up her leg. He grabbed the back of her knee pulling it quickly, making her slide back on the couch while Joey laid on top of her. She couldn’t help but open her legs giving him access. That seemed to fuel his need as he released her hair and moved on to her breasts. Grabbing and squeezing them through her shirt. The feeling of her nipples hard
