"Yeah. I think reality is starting to sink in." I smooth my already smooth dress. "You, um, you never really answered my question. Any of them."

"Ask."

"What is it you love about performing?"

"There's this feeling when you write a song. You connect in this way—"

"It's intimate?"

"Yeah. Being on stage too. At least, with the way I sing." He chuckles. "It's not on purpose."

"Scout's honor?"

"Not at first. It was just how I sang. But once I realized the effect it had on women—"

I nod. "Got groupies in your bed every night?"

He cocks a brow. "I recall this enthusiastic brunette putting her job on the line because she was convinced I wasn't the kind of guy who fucked groupies."

"It was about your image."

"Still." Hi eyes meet mine. "I take advantages when I find them."

"Your songs are so personal. With that video, knowing I'll be out there. I feel naked… don't you feel like that?"

"At first. But then I realized most people, they don't look at the lyrics. They don't think about what the song means. The ones who do are the ones who fall in love with me. Not me, but that guy who tears his heart out for them."

I swallow hard. I'm exactly the person he's talking about. He must have some inkling of that. "I know what you mean."

"I'm the one in control, on stage. And I'm in charge with the band too. The other guys hate it, but they know I'm the best at running things."

"You like to be in charge." My voice drops to something much too seductive.

He chuckles. "Not that you've been thinking about it?"

"Not at all."

"Uh-huh."

"I've been thinking about the video."

"Us naked in that bed?"

"We weren't naked."

"Not on film." The heavy tone of his voice screams but in your mind, we were very, very naked.

"No, I've been thinking about how much I respect you as an artist."

"As you touch yourself?"

"No, but what would be wrong with that? Respect is sexy."

He chuckles. "True."

"I… uh…" I stare back at him. I'm out of the dating game, but I'm pretty sure this is a go. He's practically screaming I want to fuck you. "I, um… we should probably get to it."

"To it?"
