�I think we gave your fans a bit of a shock there.�
Apolo laughed. �Yeah, I�m pretty sure we did. But they can deal with it.�
He leaned in and touched her lips ever so gently with his. Morgan�s fingers roamed through his wet hair as thunder echoed into the gray, somber sky. Apolo rested his forehead against hers and sighed. The warmth spread from Morgan�s body into his shivering skin, creating a delicate contrast with the cool Spring air. Apolo�s mahogany colored eyes explored hers. No words needed to be spoken at that very moment; they would only lessen the feelings that needed to be heard.
�You know what?�
�What?� Apolo replied, embracing Morgan.
�Since you came home, we haven�t done any of the normal stuff.�
Apolo looked down at her, obviously confused. �Yeah, we have. That�s what got us to where we are, and I must say, it was quite good.�
Morgan laughed, then grabbed his hand as they started walking down the grassy clearing. �No, I mean, the usual things regular friends do. Like, go to the movies or go clubbing.�
�Oh, you wanted to do that kind of hanging out?� Apolo stopped in his tracks and let his fingers interweave with Morgan�s.
�Yeah, I did. C�mon, it�d be fun. Something different besides our usual�umm�activity.�
�Alright, there�s a limo out by the radio station if you��
�No, I�m soaked. I want to go home, and take a hot shower first. That is, as long as you don�t mind. We can take my car,� she replied, wrapping her arm around his sopping back as they headed for the entrance. �And I�ll lend you one of Mike�s old shirts.�
�Sounds like a plan,� whispered Apolo, planting a soft kiss on top of Morgan�s head. �What are you smiling about?�
Morgan pointed straght ahead, and as they edged closer, Apolo couldn�t help but smiling as he noticed a small swarm of teenagers gaping in their direction. With their eyes as huge a dinner plates and streaks of blue glitter running down their cheeks, it was obvious that they were miffed at the idea of him having a girlfriend, let alone a fuck buddy like Morgan.
�I believe shoving your tongue down my throat sent them over the edge,� whispered Morgan, giving Apolo�s ass a loving squeeze.
�Yeah, I�d say that about did the trick.�
Apolo stared at her, immediately reading the mischievous grin plastering Morgan�s face. He could not only tell that she had had her little fun with the fans, but wanted to play with them a while longer. It wasn�t that he didn�t appreciate their support, but sometimes, their overzealous squeals irritated his nerves to no end. However, tantalizing and teasing the teenies with Morgan at his side was pushing the envelope, even for her.
�You�re pure evil. We�re on the road to Hell, and you�re in the lead. You do know that, right?�
�Who told you to follow me?� she laughed.
Apolo shook his head playfully. �Alright, here it goes�Hey there girls!�
They stopped in their tracks, arms draped around each other, and smiled at the shocked group. It was composed of the same five girls Morgan had toyed with earlier, and although she felt a twang of guilt, she chose to revel in the fun for the last time.
�She told me that you guys are huge fans. I hope you liked the interview!� chirped Apolo as both he and Morgan started to walk off into the forested area. �But me and her,� he added, pointing to Morgan, �we�re just really good friends, despite whatever you just saw. See you later.�
The girls looked at one another, then back at Apolo as he and Morgan started walking out of earshot.
�Oh my god! Apolo freakin� Ohno just talked to us!� howled String Bean, gesturing at Apolo to the remainder of her crew.
�I, like, totally know! His voice is so darn sexy!�
�It reminds me of A.J. from the Backstreet Boys!�
�And that isn�t his girlfriend! I told you so, Mandy! I told you they were probably cousins or something��
The slightest smile crossed Apolo�s lips as he and Morgan headed into the forested area towards the parking lot. �I think I just caught up to your lead, you Antichrist,� he joked, rubbing her shoulder affectionately.
�I know, and I like you more because of it.� Morgan quickly hugged Apolo under the safety of the trees as the girls� shrieks faded into the distance.
