Surviving (Surrender 2)

He moves one hand around to my front and rubs his thumb against my clit. I gasp at the touch that lights my whole body on fire aching for him to finish me off. I try to push against him to move faster, but it’s useless.

“Fine–yes!” I scream at him.

“That’s my girl.” He slams back into me with force and we both cry out together. “Jesus Christ, you’re perfect.”

I squirm against him and try to scoot back on the table I’m lying on. He looks at me with desire, lust and satisfaction swimming in his eyes.

“I can’t believe I keep falling for that trick. I’m telling you now, if we have another set of twins; I want another Brandon and we are done! No more kids.”

“You can have another Brandon anytime you want.” he tells me referring to our Manny.

I smirk at him because when I told him I wanted to hire a man as a nanny, he flipped out. But once we met Brandon and he was clearly gay, Declan was on board. Now that I have three children and two of them are boys, I couldn’t do it without Brandon.

There’s a banging on the door, and I move back to straighten my skirt. “For the love of God Declan, you two are ridiculous! Why do you even leave the house?” Charlie yells through the door.

“I still want to buy that girl a muzzle. I’m not sure how Blake is married to her.”

“Declan! That’s one of my best friends.”

“I can’t understand that either.” He grins at me, so I know he’s joking.

Once we’re both dressed and tucked back in, we head back to the band room to meet up with our friends. When we get there, it’s the normal chaos. Brandon is fawning over Nate just to get a rise out of him. He looks at us with pleading eyes, but we ignore him. My parents have the kids tonight so Brandon could come with us.

David actually promised to pick them up tomorrow and take them to the park so we could have the day to ourselves. He is ridiculous about spoiling them. But there’s nothing like watching him interact with Lizzie, she’s got him wrapped around her finger.

Declan grabs us a beer and two tequila shots. Like always, he puts my lime in his mouth, pulp side out, and leans down for me to get it. He licks my lips when he pulls away. I smile seductively at him and think about our tryst a few minutes ago. He knows what I’m thinking and pulls me against him, my back to his front.

“Stop it. Robbie and Ember walked in. I promised him no more public sex while he is around.”

“Why would you do that?”

“Because he threatened to cut my balls off after the pool house last summer.”

I smile at the memory, then I remember Robbie walking in on us and embarrassment heats my face.

“Okay, I’ll stop.”

Knight’s Dream finishes on stage and comes back to join us. They all relocated to Nashville this year to be closer to MJ and us. Besides touring together, Sayge and Knight’s Dream have collaborated on a few songs and earned six Grammy’s between them. We’re all going on the European tour together. I really like Ryan’s wife and they also have a son that is Hayes’s age.

Kendall, Harper, Charlie, Ember, Abbi, and Ella are all at the bar, so I go to talk to them. When I get there, Kendall pours six shots and hands them to everyone but the very pregnant Abbi.

“FUJIMO!” she cheers and we clink glasses.

A stagehand comes in and motions to me it’s time for Sayge, so I grab the guys and head to the stage. Declan picks me up and kisses me deeply until someone taps his shoulder.

“You did it sweetheart.”

“What?”

“Remember our first time here when I told you that one day you may be here, at the Ryman, performing with Sayge?”

“Yeah, I guess I do. God, it feels like that was forever ago.”

“It was, but I’m so proud of you.”

“Didn’t do it alone. None of this would have happened without you.”

“Yes, it would have.”
