her leg on his and rolled over him, adjusting herself and feeling the bulge growing in his pants as she gently rocked on top of him. It made her tremble with excitement.
They resumed the kiss from the restaurant: sweet and tender in the beginning, but quickly becoming hot and deep as raw desire took over their senses. Under her dress, his hands trailed up her legs, strong and wanting. He sat up with her on his lap, and nibbled at her earlobe and the soft part of her slender neck. Audrey lifted her hands and, untying the knot of her halter dress, pulled it down. John held her gaze, pulled her closer, and kissed her collarbone. She arched her back and closed her eyes as he fondled her breasts and sucked ever so tenderly on her nipples.
He took his button-down shirt off and threw it on the ground beside them, maneuvering her on top of it. Then, he ripped off his T-shirt and, matching her smile, helped her out of her dress. She reached out, rubbed her hand between his legs, and unbuckled his belt. They were completely enthralled as they made love while staring deeply into each other’s eyes.
“I love you,” she whispered in his ear, thinking these words she’d considered so loaded came rushing to her mouth with such a power she had no strength to stop them.
“I love you, too,” he said instantaneously. She stopped kissing him for a moment, afraid he responded too quickly, without thinking about what he had just said. Although she hadn’t labeled it love until then, she’d lost sleep over it countless nights and didn’t want him to take it lightly.
She looked into his eyes and said, “I want to make sure you understand … I love the band, I love the music, I love the road, but I love you.”
“And I love you, Audrey. From the moment I saw you.”
There was something about the way he looked at her. Perhaps a recognition, a realization, but it was as if she’d been balancing on a ball her whole life and now — for the first time — she was stepping on firm ground.

The moon had changed sides in the sky when they walked back to the hotel. The Jersey Shore marathon was over. Kevin and Matt were stretched on the beds and Tyler was sitting by the table. Rob was already asleep in the bus. On the television, she saw the black-and-white image of a woman on a pay phone, The Twilight Zone . Kevin and Tyler were smoking cigars and all three of them held plastic cups with Jack Daniel’s and ice. Very fitting, she thought standing by the door holding hands with John in silence, and waiting for everyone’s assessment. She didn’t know if was the silence or the holding of hands that did the trick, but she knew by the look on their faces they understood what was happening.
In a cinematic way, Kevin slowly pointed his index finger at the two of them. “Oh, oh, oh! What did you guys do?” His face twisted, as if suddenly the channel had been changed to a comedy show. Then, he burst into getting-laid jokes, followed by Matt and Tyler.
Audrey’s brows snapped together as she looked at John, who shrugged dismissively. Letting go of his hand, she walked toward the table, lifted the empty tequila bottle, and said, “No more tequila? You bastards.”

It was noon when Audrey and John sat at the diner by the hotel to have breakfast. She was feeling something akin to elation for being with him for almost twenty-four hours consecutively. They’d made love again and again in her room, then spooned in bed until they fell asleep exhausted and happy.
The rest of the band trickled in one by one, each looking more hung over than the last. They laughed and made bets on how bad the next to walk through the door would look. Kevin, as usual, was the last to show up, looking pale with blood-shot eyes. It was the night of their gig, so breakfast had to be extra hearty.
“What’s the plan today?” Matt craned a gigantic piece of ham and cheese omelet to his mouth.
“The bar opens at five, but we don’t go on
