Gasoline

by Bella Jeanisse

  She smiled. “We can do that.”

  “Guys, time to go.” Ben, Winter Winds’ soundboard operator, poked his head in the room. He was one of three permanent crewmembers. The rest were hired just for that tour. “Raining Black is doing their last song.”

  Noelle and Mitchell walked arm in arm through the hall to the stage. He patted her hand, glad she was comforting him. Maybe he was taking advantage of her good nature, but he needed it.

  Dominic was on his way to watch Winter Winds when he caught sight of Noelle and Mitchell. He froze and moved behind a large speaker nearby. What the fuck? She was smiling and had her arm hooked in his. Was he the “him” she mentioned?

  Then his mouth dropped. She put a hand on Mitchell’s face and kissed his other cheek. Granted, it wasn’t on the mouth, but she normally pushed him away. The look in her eyes… was it concern or love?

  “Can I hold you again tonight?” Mitchell asked.

  Dominic turned away. That’s why she can’t handle more? They’re… he wasn’t sure what they were doing, but it was more than friendship. He was disappointed. Then he realized he was technically seeing someone as well. However, she lied. She was still seeing him. He turned back and watched her tugging away from him. That was confusing. He was afraid to ask, though.

  Chapter Nineteen

  Noelle watched Gasoline perform from the left wing of the stage. Their last song was off their third album, “Can’t Take Any More.” Dean didn’t scream like he did most of the time. The first two verses he shouted quickly, almost rapping. Then the chorus was sung, loud and strong.

  Dominic and Dean played fast and loud while Tommy and Jon seemed to go wild. It reminded her of releasing frustration. Dominic and Dean’s hair went flying as they banged their heads to the beat. When the rhythm slowed again, she listened to the words and tears fell.

  “This is my punishment, I’ll never break free. I’m chained to my pain. Darkness surrounds me.” Heavy drums and guitars again. Then the lyrics continued. “This isn’t a life. The guilt is consuming. Not able to breathe. It’s so overwhelming.” Dean took a few breaths, then sang, “This is what losing you has done to me. How could you leave me lost and alone? I’m just a shell of a man, no longer alive. Wish I knew how I was supposed to atone.”

  Who had written the song? She looked from one band member to the next. The only one with an obvious reaction was Dominic. He had his eyes closed and seemed upset. Her heart went out to him. Who did he lose? She wondered if it was the same someone he cried about with her. It made her feel guilty for needing monogamy. That was, if they were together. Maybe he couldn’t let go? Will he ever tell me?

  Dominic felt like he was going to explode. When Jon told him “Can’t Take Any More” was on the playlist, he protested. It was a difficult song for him. Jon said the fans loved it, and he needed to play it again, to hear the words. That way he could see how far he’d come.

  While Dean said his last words to the crowd, Dominic waved and handed his guitar to Casey. He tried to think of a way to curb the memories and regrets. He walked watching the floor, unsure. As he navigated the stairs, a pair of female boots came into his field of vision. He looked up and relief washed over him.

  “Noelle?”

  She gave him her brightest smile. “You OK?” Her hands moved to his chest and her fingers slid down his body, hoping to distract him from his obvious pain.

  “I’ll be fine.” He met her sultry gaze and his cock stirred. That look drove him up a wall. Suddenly her fingers stroked his hardening shaft through his pants. He sucked a breath in through gritted teeth. “Damn…” Quickly, it reacted to her touch.

  She let out a soft sigh. “Mmm, seems you like this.” Her nails dragged along his length as it grew. “Maybe we should find somewhere to go for a while.

  Dominic groaned, glad she had redirected his mind. “The bus,” he rasped.

  With a sly grin, Noelle took his hand and pulled him to the rear exit, past many screaming fans, then to Gasoline’s bus. The silence they met was perfect. She grabbed the waistband of his jeans and yanked him to the bedroom.

  Enjoying her sudden dominance, Dominic didn’t resist a bit. Not even when she pushed him onto the bed. He lay where he landed, waiting for her next move. It came quickly. She opened his belt buckle and looked up at him. Her eyes revealed just how horny she was. He grinned at her, dying for her to unleash it on him.

  Noelle was nervous. She was submissive in nature, at least in the bedroom. After a few seconds just staring into Dominic’s amused eyes, she found the courage to continue. He deserved this. She wanted to show him how she felt about him. Well, as much as she could handle at least. While tugging his pants open, she climbed on the bed. His legs were open, so she straddled the right one and reached into his boxers.

  Dominic gasped when she gripped his cock. Then he moaned when she pulled it out and stroked it slowly, up and down, up and down. Her eyes downcast, she let her fingers slide over the head a few times. His hands found the bedspread and held on tight. Then she leaned down and licked off the bead of pre-cum.

  “Oh, God, suck me please. Please!”

  His hips lifted when she finally did. She swallowed half his shaft in one move, sucking hard. Then drew back and bumped her lips over the crown repeatedly. He panted and gasped, the pleasure torturous. She pulled back and licked her lips. He groaned, feeling like he was going to explode.

  Without a word, Noelle tugged Dominic’s pants and underwear down. Then she removed them along with his socks and boots. She was wet and ready to fuck him, but she wanted to give him just a bit more. After losing her clothes and boots, she crawled over him like a cat. His eyes wide with desire, he reached for her. She avoided his grasp, instead running her hand up his shirt, slowly. After toying with his nipple a little, she pushed the shirt up over his head.

  He stiffened when she sucked on his nipple, but then her swollen folds rubbed his cock. “Noelle… God, Noelle.” She rocked her hips, making him shudder. “Damn.”

  He banged his head on the mattress, trying to calm down. It didn’t help. His entire body was tingling, his balls most of all. She tugged on his nipple with her teeth, and he moaned. He tried to maneuver his hips so he could sink into her pussy, but she moved up. If only she were on birth control.

  “You should get on the pill, so we don’t have to go hunting for condoms all the time.” An eyebrow rose as he waited for her response.

  She replied, in a breathy tone, “Maybe.” Then she ran her tongue up his chest, neck, then sucked on his earlobe. “Would let me feel you inside so much more.”

  His entire body shuddered with need. “Fuck, woman.” He was exasperated. “Fuck me already.”

  She gave him a sly grin and got off the bed.

  “Hey, wait,” Dominic cried out. “Where you going?” She walked out the door, naked. “What the hell?” He scrubbed his hands over his face. “My dick’s gonna explode.”

  When she didn’t come back right away, he wrapped his fingers around his cock and stroked slowly. His hands were shaking so much he had trouble getting a rhythm. He had no idea why she left him like that.

  As quietly as possible, Noelle opened the bedroom door. With several condoms in hand, she watched Dominic give himself pleasure for a minute or two. Then silently, she closed the door and approached the bed. His arm was over his eyes, obviously not aware she was in the room.

  Dominic almost jumped out of his skin when a hand touched his thigh. “Shit, you scared me.” He took a few deep breaths. “I thought you left.”

  “Why?” She looked at him quizzically.

  His cheeks reddened a bit. “Um, well… I don’t know. You didn’t come back right away.”

  “I left my clothes in here.” She chuckled, a hand behind her back. “I had to get something.”

  He shrugged and gripped his dick hard. “You still want me?” He felt so confused. She was acting strangely.

  “Wanna come find out?” She smirked, daring him with her eyes
.

  A grin on his face, he jumped off the bed and stood before her. The head of his stiff cock poked her abdomen. “Guess this could mean you want me.” He cupped her breasts and rubbed his thumbs over her hardened nipples. “Feels like you want something.” His hands slid down her body, to her hips, slowly. “Should be another way to tell.”

  She shuddered as his fingertips caressed the front of her hips. The slight touch sent electricity throughout her body. He moved down her thighs, exciting her even more. Their eyes met as she gasped. If she hadn’t been insane with desire, she would have melted. Her pussy was dripping wet and aching for him.

  Dominic leaned forward and kissed her lips, just as his fingers drifted over her mound. He continued down at a snail’s pace while kissing her again and again. Feeling her tremble again, he grinned against her mouth. Then he made it worse, trailing his lips down her throat and across her neck to her ear.

  “Feels like you need something.” He slid a finger between her swollen folds, spreading the moisture. “Something I wanna give you.” He almost laughed at himself. That was pretty corny. She didn’t react in a bad way, though.

  Noelle barely heard the words. She only felt her need growing. He had seduced her many times, but never teased until recently. She didn’t think she could take much more. She was much too worked up.

  “Please, Dominic.” She moaned as he grazed her clit. “Please… please.”

  He brushed her ear with his lips. “Want my fingers or my cock?” He grabbed his shaft and rubbed the wet head against her belly. “Or both?”

  “Anything…” Desperate for release, she didn’t care. When he thrust two fingers into her, she cried out, her pussy hugging his fingers. “Dom…” Her eyes rolled back when he withdrew and drove them in hard again. “Oh God!” Her arms flew around his neck so she stayed on her feet.

  Dominic was surprised when something in her hand scratched his shoulder. He felt it again and realized it must be a condom. That made his cock twitch. He couldn’t wait. His hands moved to her ass as he lifted her up.

  “I need you,” he whispered, in a deep voice laced with need. “Now.” He carried her to the bed, and they both fell on to the mattress together. He moved up her body until his erection lay between her folds. “God, you are so beautiful.”

  His lips descended onto hers as he rocked his hips, making her shudder. He loved foreplay. Knew it was the key to making a woman completely satisfied and begging for it again. With Noelle, it was more than that, though. He got off on her pleasure. Her cries made his dick harder and his balls throb.

  Noelle’s eyes rolled back as the head of his cock continually massaged her clit. She dropped the condoms, unable to grip them any longer. They cascaded down Dominic’s side onto the bed. Her hands flew into his hair with a gasp. When his tongue caressed hers, she fisted his hair and deepened the kiss, desperate for more.

  Dominic moaned, loving her growing need. Their kisses grew more passionate, tongues twirling together and moaning getting louder. He found a condom and tried to open it with one hand, but that proved impossible. If she was on birth control… He knew why she wasn’t. She didn’t have a steady man or sex often enough. Until now. He pulled back with a grin.

  “One sec.” He tore the condom open with his teeth and leaned on one hand as he rolled it on. “God, my dick is dying for you.”

  She watched him, impatiently, wishing he didn’t have to bother. “Now, Dom, now,” she begged. Her legs were shaking. “I’m gonna die.”

  He grinned again, knowing he had her exactly where he wanted her. Getting down on his forearms, he brushed her lips with his. “Guess I have to save you.” He wished he had suave lines like Tommy.

  Rolling his hips just a bit, he found her entrance and thrust forward with a loud gasp of pleasure. Her pussy was always so tight. He paused when she whimpered. Never had she been able to take his girth easily. He hoped that once they were having sex more often, she could. Slowly, he withdrew completely and drove in again, making a bit of progress. Her body gave a bit more freely. He nuzzled her neck, lovingly. Something he only did with her. Sex with her was never just sex.

  “God… feels so good,” he murmured in her ear. Another stroke and she had taken half his length. “Noelle…” Emotions were already building within him. He shut his eyes, knowing she wanted only sex from him.

  Noelle ran her fingers through Dominic’s hair. He was always aware of her inability to take his size quickly. The way he treated her was one of the reasons she cared so much about him. It felt so much like love. I can’t open myself that much yet. Right?

  His breath washed over her ear. His soft moans made her crazier and pulled at her heartstrings. The sound of his pleasure always got to her. Made her want to hear it more often. He thrust in deeper, and she pulled his hair. Never had a man given her more pleasure than she thought she could feel. He made it even better every time.

  “Dominic!” she cried out, her pussy already gripping him tightly.

  He groaned. The pressure almost painful. “Love when you cum, baby.” He gritted his teeth while her vaginal walls pulsated with aftershocks. “Oh God, that feels so fucking good.”

  It felt so good, he had to clench his pelvic muscles to stop his own orgasm. His balls protested while he struggled to hold back. As soon as it had abated, he drove into her to the hilt and ground against her.

  She clung to him, still trembling. Then her eyes rolled back again. He rubbed her clit as he moved his hips around again. She loved that, and he knew it. They moaned together, his arms wrapping around her. He lay on her, holding her close. Then he mumbled something inaudible, but she could barely hear anyway. He had her sense of touch on overdrive. His next stroke sent shivers up her spine. It was too much, though. She couldn’t let her emotions show through.

  “Fuck me hard.”

  Dominic lifted his head in confusion. “Hard?” She had not once asked for that. “You sure?” He always thought she was too delicate to handle it. When she nodded, he closed his eyes and let go of the feeling within. It was still just sex for her, then. “Let me know if I hurt you.”

  “I need it,” she admitted. Rough should take all the emotion out of it. Stephen had been good at that. Too good at making it only about sex; no emotion at all. She hated that, but her feelings for Dominic overwhelmed her. “Please,” she begged.

  Without another thought, he pulled back and plunged into her quickly. When his hips hit hers, she clenched her pussy around him. She stiffened slightly and that worried him.

  “Too hard?”

  She shook her head. “It just reminded me of something.”

  He closed his eyes, knowing what she meant. “I’ll never be like him. I won’t go behind your back, if we’re a couple.” He paused, wanting to say the right thing to sway her. “If you want rough, I’ll give it to you, but not at the expense of your heart.”

  His words melted her at the very core. No way was he anything like Stephen. Things could grow if she let them. Question was, could he handle it? He held back so much when they weren’t in bed. Although he showed her his emotional side, he didn’t explain what was eating at him.

  “Please, just fuck me.” She shut her eyes, wanting him to refuse, but he never denied her anything except his soul. He stayed still, obviously fighting his feelings as well. “Make me forget him. Make me feel something even when it’s rough and animalistic.” Her legs wrapped around his back, feet hooked together, giving him full access to her depths.

  Eyes still closed, Dominic reigned in his fear and growing feelings for her. Then he gave her what she wanted. He moaned as his hips rammed into hers. Sex for the sake of sex, something he had rarely experienced since before Claire. With each hit, they moaned and pulled each other’s hair. He got so into it, he let go of his apprehension. She was getting off and harder than ever.

  Noelle screamed, her entire body shaking and pulsing with pleasure. The nails of one hand dug into Dominic’s neck. He kept thrusting, making it last even
longer. She cried out again, shocked by her own reaction. Rough had never been so good before. Every inch of her skin tingled, and her body craved more. Their moans had gotten louder and louder. She was glad it was just as good for him.

  A few hundred feet away, Tommy had searched the entire arena for Scott and Austin. They were supposed to go out after the show. Maybe they went to the after-party without him? Nah, that’s didn’t make sense. He checked both Wicked End’s and Gasoline’s dressing rooms again. Nothing.

  He pulled out his phone to call Scott and saw he had missed a text from him. His phone had been on silent. That should have been the first thing he checked.

  We’re gonna be a bit late. Breaking in a virgin. Couldn’t resist.

  Tommy’s eyebrows rose. We? That seemed a bit much for a virgin. He thought about how many cherries he had popped and grinned. Virgins were so tight and usually good at blowjobs. He wouldn’t pass it up, either.

  That night, not many fans were backstage because of a security breach. They had tightened security outside as well, erecting more barriers than usual. The power outage had been caused by a wild fan pretending to be a part of Raining Black’s crew. Since they had to hire temporary workers for the night, no one knew them. If Dean had asked, any of Gasoline’s crew would have helped him out, but he was stubborn. The fan had no idea what he was doing, blowing several fuses and destroying an entire soundboard. Good thing Gasoline had backups for almost everything.

  After walking out the back door, Tommy headed for the first set of fans. Several squeals met him, and he grinned. He looked all the women over. A few were his type. At least the type he had concocted since Crystal stayed with him: brunette, short and with a nice handful of tits. They had his dick growing already.

  When he came close, one screamed, “Tommy! Oh my God, Tommy!” She jumped up and down, her breasts almost bouncing out of her strapless top.

  Exactly what I need tonight. Willing and energetic! “Hey, babe.” He winked at her and gave her his sexiest smile. “How about you and I get to know each other on the bus? I could use a bit of TLC.”
