I came out of the ladies room and my heart crumbled in two when I saw Joe speaking with another girl.
I'm so pissed off! he had hardly talked to me at all but yet there he is sucking everything that bitch is saying. she's not even hot or anything?! I bet she's a groupie, ugh, the worst part is that he looks interested.
I can't handle my jealousy so I strut outside, I can walk to the hotel, I don't need to wait for that asshole to fuck someone and then decide for the rest of us when its time to leave. I'm tired either way.

I'm breathing heavily in anger as I cross the street but then someone pulls my arm from behind.
"Where are you going?"
"God! Joe, you scared me!
I uh, I'm very tired and I didn't wanna ruin anyone's fun so I decided to walk back to the hotel."
"Oh alright, but its kind of dangerous to walk alone this time of night. Mind if I come with you?"
He's so sweet? maybe he didn't care about that girl, he must care about me if he left her to follow me outside? I don't know why but he makes my whole body feel like I'm spinning and all he has to do is speak one word.
I forgot why I was mad, smiled and said I would love his company.

we walked in silence for a bit
"it's kind of cold isn't it?"
"yea, Its never this cold over there, well not in south California anyway."
"my fingers are freezing, I don't want them to be all cramped up tomorrow night. you know since I play the guitar and all?"
"yea, I hope they're alright. I wouldn't want your performance cancelled, I really look forward to it."
"would you mind if I held your hand? you know, so it can keep mine warm."
I let out a snicker, I can't believe he wants to hold my hand o lord.
"well, if your music career relies on my hand, you most certainly can hold it."
"thank you very much my lady," he stood behind me and from behind took my left hand with his right hand and my right hand with his left hand, leaving us entwined with each other. He placed his face on my shoulder and said I could start leading the way.
I cannot help being turned on and my heart is beating so fast I'm sure he can hear it. I feel his lungs expand on my back as he inhales and his breath caresses my ear as he exhales. I'm smiling so much my cheeks hurt, that's the best way I can describe this moment.

"I think Paul mentioned that you sing?"
"oh, yea I do, or did. nothing professional like you, just for fun."
"interesting, why don't you sing for me?" every time he spoke he would turn his face towards me and I could almost feel his lips against my cheek. It made me so nervous, I probably looked stupid talking.
"oh no, not right now sorry"
"please? do it for me, come on don't be embarrassed I don't judge."
"no I don't sing well, I haven't sung in a while either"
"please?" he whispered this in my ear which tickled so I tried to jerk away from him, he then pulled me against him and we both laughed.

he was holding me in his arms, we were face to face this time, and as we looked into each other's eyes time froze, the world became silent, and we were the only two people on the earth.
but we weren't really on earth, we were somewhere in outer space. we must have been because all I could see was stars radiating beautiful, colorful, light, as he pressed his lips against mine and stole my breath. I could feel his heart beating against mine like two drums in unison.
the first kiss lasted about 5 seconds, 5 seconds of gentle affection. once we were about to pull away from each other, our eyes met again and joe took my face pulling me back into his heavenly talented lips. he tickled my upper lip with his tongue, then bit my lower lip and pulled it as he continued to kiss me.
we both ran out of breath so we separated our lips but even as we did they kept stretching out, wanting to kiss again.
we gazed at each other, still his hands caressing my face and mine against his chest.
"can I tell you something?"
"what is it?"
"you have the sweetest lips I've ever had the pleasure of tasting."
"thanks, I think you're the best kisser I've ever encountered."
we both laughed
"can I call you Candy? I think it suits you more" he said looking at me with his sexually pleasing face and soothing voice.
"yea, I like that."
"Candy, Candy, Candy. I can't let you go." he leaned into me and kissed me again. I knew then, I'm in love.
