| Kelci and JC tried to see each other whenever possible. It worked for the two months that JC was on vacation, but still producing for others, because she was filming Charlie's Angels II. She had requested permission so he could visit the set when he wanted and proudly presented him a laminated pass during the second week of filming. He had been so amazed and please. "This time together has been absolutely fantastic." "I agree," she nodded and pushed her plate away. The waitress brought their check and JC insisted on paying. They headed out of the restaurant hand in hand and ignored the ever present photographers. "Do you want to hang out for a while?" she asked once her seat belt was buckled. "I don't have to be on set until noon." "Sure. I don't have to be anywhere until 3." "OK. Let's go to your house." "Alrighty." They chatted easily as they road along and JC couldn't get enough of her. He'd grown so attached in the last two months and didn't know how they would handle the tour that was only 2 months away. Once inside his kitchen, JC pulled Kelci close and nuzzled her neck. He whispered, "I can't get close enough to you." She smiled and kissed his cheek. They stood in the tight embrace for several minutes before Tyler found them. He just smiled and shook his head. "I hate to interrupt," Tyler spoke and the other two laughed. "I want some ice cream and you are in the way." "Oh..well..excuse us," JC teased and Kelci laughed as she pulled him toward the stairs. "My lady, are you trying to seduce me?" Kelci laughed as his body snuggled up to her back then spoke, "No, but I think Ty and Jenn would appreciate being alone just as much as we do. Besides...I thought you wanted to be close." "Oh, yeah." Kelci laughed as he pushed her upstairs and into his room. He jumped on the bed and she laughed at him as she headed to grab the entertainment remote off the desk. She clicked on the CD player and the soulful sound of Sade filled the room. "Take off your shirt and I'll give you a back rub," she instructed as she headed into his bathroom to get the oil she'd purchased last month. "Oh YES!!" She returned with the basket of oils and lotion and found him stretched out across his large bed in only his deep purple jockey shorts. "Wonder how much money I could make for a snap shot of this," she laughed as she swatted his ass then moved to straddle the back of his thighs. "Better not try it." "Ah, you're no fun." Both fell quiet as she kneaded his strong, but tense muscles and the sensual music filled the air. Kelci just focused all her energy on her hands and allowed her mind to wander. She was so glad to be shooting in LA so she could be so close to JC, but that was going to change and soon. "Have you talked to Rach in the last three days?" JC asked before groaning when she found a knot in his bicep. "Yeah, yesterday. She's back in Kentucky until Thursday then she's going back to Mississippi until Lance leaves on Monday. She's quite excited about their long weekend." "So is he. All giddy and shit." "She also said the McAllister house just outside of Guthrie is up for sale," she mentioned. "Are you looking to buy a house?" "Well, the little apartment Rach and I have now is too small and we've both loved the McAllister place forever so...maybe." "You could just move in here." "Right," she scoffed and he rolled her over, sitting up quickly. "I'm serious." "Honey, that's sweet...but I need something AWAY from Hollywood." "OK, but stay here when you're in LA. Save on hotel expenses." "You just want me in your bed." "Awe...you found me out," he laughed as he rubbed her thighs. "I just want you close." "You're so sweet. If I do by a house, I want you to spend time there, too." "You're so sweet, too. Tryin' to get me into your bed," he teased as she shifted so her legs were around him and not pinned under her. "I'll make you a deal, handsome," she smiled and ran her fingers through his hair as she placed two tender kisses on his soft lips. "If I can get this weekend completely off...and you go to Kentucky with me....I'll stay here on a trial basis while I finish this film." "Really?" he squealed, his eyes dancing excitedly, and she nodded. "Deal! Call Drew and see about your schedule this weekend so we can book our flight." "I'll talk to her and the director tomorrow. Are we finished with your massage?" "Yeah....do you need one?" "Not tonight, but thank you." He pulled her hips closer and nuzzled into her neck. She sighed and wrapped her arms tighter around his shoulders. Both were content and happy for a long time then she felt the yawn he tried to hide. "I should leave you. You're exhausted," she whispered into his hair, but that made him hold her closer. "Stay tonight." "Honey, I don't have my pajamas, clothes for tomorrow or my toothbrush plus I need to look over my lines for tomorrow." "Let's go check you out of your hotel, bring your stuff here, and I'll run lines with you," he proposed as his hands slid under her t-shirt and up to her rib cage. "I'll even re-arrange the closet tomorrow so you can unpack into your own space here." She couldn't say no and 90 minutes later, her two huge suitcases were in his large walk-in closet. Both were sitting on his bed in their pajamas. "Oooh! There's kissing on the next page," JC interrupted before she finished her line and she rolled her eyes. "If you don't stop interrupting me, we'll NEVER get there." "Oh, sorry." They worked their way through the dialogue and JC forgot about the kiss until Kelci leaned over to capture his lips. He smiled and deepened the kiss, her manuscript sliding off his lap as he moved over her. Their kiss was slow and wet, his taste still blowing her senses like it did the first time. Finally they broke apart and he searched her eyes, his thumb stroking her cheek. "You are beautiful," his voice was soft and gentle. She blushed a little, but couldn't look away from him as she whispered, "You, sir, are just totally scrumptious, but lookin' a lil' tired. Climb under the covers and I'll let you hold me." "Oh, you'll LET me," he chuckled as they moved under the sheet and dropped her script on the night stand. "Good night, Joshy." "Good night," he whispered and kiss her neck once the light was off. He watched her until her breath was deep and even before he spoke again, "I love you, C." |
