Star-Struck, Book 1

by Twyla Turner

  “God, I know. I’m just so afraid of losing her because of all this.” Gabe gestured around the set and the paparazzi at the gate in the distance.

  “Don’t worry man. I’m sure everything will be fine.” He patted Gabe on the back and walked away.

  Gabe wasn’t so sure anymore.

  ~~~

  “Woo honey! That was one crazy hot video! I’m so jealous!” Sunny cringed as Santiago came up to her while she was checking inventory in the back room with a few others.

  So far no one had seemed to have seen the video and Sunny had thought she was in the clear. Now thanks to Santiago a few ears pricked at the new gossip, especially Becca’s.

  “Ooh what?! What happened?” Becca begged Santiago.

  “Santiago, please don’t start. I don’t need everyone in my business.” Sunny begged for a whole different reason.

  “Honey, how could you not want to share what it’s like to be with a mega famous celebrity? And you’ve been with him, right? Because girl, that video said it all!”

  “Oh now I’ve got to know what’s going on!” Becca bounced up and down pulling on Santiago’s arm.

  “Don’t worry, I already have it up and ready on my phone to show you.” Santiago ignored Sunny’s scowl.

  Swiping the screen on his phone, Santiago did indeed have the video ready to go. Sunny walked away from them to finish what she was working on, trying to calm her fury. But it was hard when she could hear the reggae music from that night blaring out his phone and the loud gasps of Becca.

  Sunny had had enough when she heard the video start again and looked over to see Santiago and Becca watching it again with another co-worker. At this point everyone would know before the hour was up. She stormed out of the backroom to the front of the store, more willing to deal with customers than her so-called friends.

  But that didn’t stop them. Becca came running up to her.

  “Please Sunny; tell me what it was like to be with him. He is so gorgeous and big! Is he big everywhere? You have to tell me!” Becca pleaded with her.

  “You know what Becca; I don’t have to tell you a goddamned thing!” Sunny hissed under her breath, finally having enough.

  “Oh, so it’s like that? You get with a movie star and now you’re too good for your friends?!” Becca gave her a look of disgust.

  “I just don’t like my life on display for the whole world to judge. And I have no idea if what we have is even going to go anywhere, so why would I boast about something that may be over tomorrow?”

  “Well duh! He’s a superstar who dates models and can have anyone he wants. Of course you’re just a fling, he’s not really gonna marry you or anything. So you enjoy it while it lasts and have great stories to tell in the process.” Becca gave her a hateful look.

  “Go fuck yourself, Becca.” Sunny stomped away angrily, tears welling in her eyes but not wanting Becca to see them.

  After that, everyone avoided Sunny like she was a leper. Every now and again she received curious looks from those not very close to her and dirty looks from her friends. Some friends. Thank God I’m off again tomorrow. She wasn’t sure how much more of this she could take. Her whole life was being turned upside down in the best and worst ways.

  ~~~

  The next morning Sunny dressed for her day on a real movie set. She wore her favorite long white Spanish style peasant skirt and an 80’s style off the shoulder coral t-shirt. She paired them with her colorful ankle band sandals, silver hoop earrings and a long necklace. And she pinned up her hair in a pile of curls.

  She headed outside when Gabe called to let her know he was waiting for her out front. The ever familiar butterflies started in her stomach as she walked outside, which turned into the full-blown bats when she saw him for the first time since the weekend. It had only been a day, but it had felt like forever.

  He must have missed her too, because he met her halfway, grabbed her face in his hands and kissed her silly before walking her to the truck and opening the door for her. As she got in, she noticed various men scattered here and there with cameras that had huge lens, across the street snapping pictures. Sunny was looking back at them when Gabe slid into the driver’s side.

  “Don’t pay attention to them Sunny.” Gabe looked at her apprehensively.

  “They know where I live Gabe!” She threw her hands up in frustration.

  “And I’m so sorry for that. But please don’t let this come between us.” He reached out to clasp her hand in his and squeezed tight.

  She squeezed his hand back reassuringly. “I’ll try Gabe. But you have to understand that I’m not used to this, and there are going to be times that I freak out. I just need time to adjust, I guess.”

  “Alright, I’ll try not to freak out when you freak out. One freak out at a time. Got it.” He winked at her.

  “Exactly. So anyway, I can’t wait to see you in action today.” She put her worries aside and smiled brightly at him.

  “Hopefully I’ll be able to concentrate. I’ve never had someone I care about watching me before.” He actually looked at her shyly.

  They were having so many firsts, not just her, but both of them. It seemed to put them on a level playing field for once.

  “So I read your stuff.” Gabe said; she nervously looked at him waiting for his thoughts. “They are great Sunny. I love the animated movie script. Disney or Pixar would be perfect studios for that one. And your romantic comedy has a lot of heart and a nice spin on the classic rom-com script formula that is overdone.” He reached over and grabbed her hand, giving it a reassuring squeeze. “It only confirmed what I already knew…you’re extremely talented Sunny.”

  Sunny glowed with his praise. “Thanks Gabe, that means a lot coming from you.”

  “You’re welcome, and I’ll get them in the right hands a.s.a.p.” He winked at her.

  He parked the truck on a residential street. They were filming at a pretty California bungalow today, which posed as the main characters’ home, so most of the street was blocked off. Equipment, trailers and people crowded the closed off area. Sunny was bursting with excitement to be able to watch the whole process.

  “Come this way. I have a surprise for you.” A mischievous look crossed Gabe’s face.

  “Uh…okay.” Sunny looked at him suspiciously.

  They walked a little further and then Gabe placed a hand over her eyes, telling her not to peek. Their steps were awkward as he walked her forward with his hand over her face. Then he stopped.

  “Are you ready?” He whispered in her ear.

  “Uh huh.” She nodded.

  He lifted his hand away from her eyes. Her pupils took a moment to adjust to the sunlight. And there in front of her was a director’s chair with her name ‘Madison Stone’ and ‘Screenplay Writer’ underneath, embossed on the back.

  She clapped her hands over her mouth and just stared a moment. She slowly walked forward, then around the chair. Gabe watched her, waiting for a reaction. And a few of the crew members were watching, smiling.

  “I can’t believe you did this. It’s incredible.” Sunny said quietly, reaching out to lightly touch her name on the back of the chair, as if it would disappear.

  “So you like it?” Gabe smiled like a little boy.

  “Like it? I love it! It’s freakin awesome and unbelievably thoughtful.”

  It was his first gift to her. Sunny’s excitement burst fully and she ran to him. He swept her up in his arms and her legs wrapped around his waist. She started kissing him all over his face, making him chuckle. The cast and crew that had been watching and some that had just walked up, started laughing as well.

  “It’s for you to sit in and watch me today. To feel a part of the crew. And of course to take home and inspire you to write more scripts.”

  “I love you.” She said softly against his lips.

  “I love you too, Sweet Girl.”

  Then Sunny jumped down and skipped to her chair, ready to begin the day.

  Chapter 13


  Gabe couldn’t have been more ecstatic over the way the day was going. Sunny adored her chair that he’d gotten made for her. Sitting in it next to Kyle, while he explained the filming process to her and letting her occasionally yell out ‘cut’ or ‘action’. She was in her element, smiling brightly and animatedly talking to everyone. She had the film crew wrapped around her finger and it wasn’t even lunch yet. And best of all, Josiah wasn’t in any of the scenes so he wasn’t on the set stirring up trouble.

  Gabe’s performances during each take were the best he’d ever done. He’d wanted to make her proud, and she gave him back the passion that he had lost in the last couple of years. It was hard to emote feelings of love, anger, passion and heartbreak when he felt dead inside.

  After having Sunny yell ‘cut’ again, Kyle announced a lunch break. Gabe walked over to Sunny, who was watching the playback of the last take. When he stood in front of her she looked up at him, smiling so hard her cheeks had a rosy tint to them. His heart clenched.

  “Hey beautiful, are you hungry?” Gabe asked her.

  “Yes and no.” At his perplexed look, she explained. “I know I should eat because I haven’t had anything in hours, but I’m so hyped up that I don’t think I’d be able to eat anything.”

  “Well I’m starving. So let’s get some food from the truck and you can try to eat a little something.” He held his hand out to her.

  As they walked towards the food truck, she looked back lovingly at her chair.

  “No one’s going to mess with your chair. Not if I have anything to do about it.” His eyes were dancing with laughter at her look.

  “I know I just wanna take it with me everywhere.” She said unashamed.

  “Hmm…I think you love that chair more than me.” Gabe gave her a fake scowl.

  “Not even close, but someone I love did give it to me, which means it should be cherished.” She said with her heart in her eyes.

  She left him speechless and a little lump formed in his throat, but he just stepped up to the truck to order their food, giving him some time to pull it together.

  Gabe got a gourmet burger with fries and Sunny asked for a Greek salad with chicken. They ate at one of the picnic tables. Gabe inhaled his food, rushing to get some alone time with her in his trailer. She picked at her salad while enthusiastically talking about all she had learned so far.

  Once they were done, without a word Gabe quietly got up threw away their plates, grabbed her hand and pulled her from the table, walking her towards his trailer. He let her in first and then stepped in behind her, closing and locking the door firmly.

  He still hadn’t spoken yet, which he could tell was making her nervous. He took her hand and led her to the stationary dining table, lifted her up to sit on it and then sat in the chair in front of her. She just looked down at him curiously.

  “And now it’s time for dessert.” He said smoothly as he started to draw her skirt up her legs.

  “Gabe…anyone could pass by and hear. This trailer’s walls aren’t exactly sound proof.” Sunny looked around anxiously.

  “Then I suggest you try to keep it down.”

  “Yeah right, like that’s possible with you involved.”

  Sunny tried to stop his hands from lifting her skirt further, but she was no match for his strength. And she didn’t want to be, craving his touch too much.

  So letting him take control, he made her lie back across the table, finished lifting her skirt and gently skated around the skin that met her panty line grasping the lacy edge, skimming them down her legs.

  He dropped the pretty panties to the floor and lifted her legs to rest on his shoulders. Her breathing became harsh, anticipating what he was about to do to her.

  “I love how wet you already are for me.” He murmured as he slid his finger down her damp opening.

  “Always.” She whimpered.

  He placed his tongue on her sweet and savory entrance, sweeping up to her sensitive bud. She cried out loudly, and then clamped a hand over her mouth, probably remembering where they were. The other hand reached down to grip his hair. The sharp tug of pain urged him on, knowing he was the cause of her losing control.

  He continued to tease, withholding what she really wanted. Licking softly up her cleft, a quick flick at her clit and then retreating. He built her up, never staying long enough, denying her climax. She tried pumping her hips up and down to get his wet tongue to where she wanted it. Her little gasps behind her hand becoming more urgent. He loved it, making her feminine nectar continually flow onto his taste buds. He knew the prolonged torment would build her orgasm to a new level.

  Sunny’s frustration finally broke her control. She gave up on trying to stifle her noises, not caring who heard her, in her need for release. She uncovered her mouth, clasped his hair in a death-grip with both hands, tilted his face to the position that she wanted it and proceeded to buck against his tongue with wild abandon. Sunny’s cries bounced off the thin walls of the trailer. All he could do was hold on for the ride. She was magnificent.

  “Aahhh…oh God…oh God…Gabe please…please…please!” She wailed as he groaned into her wet heat.

  Grabbing hold of her hips, trying to subdue her wild movements, Gabe latched onto her clit. Sucking it into his mouth and giving the nub one final flick and she exploded on his tongue. She screamed his name so loud that he waited for dogs to start howling in response. He knew she’d be mortified later, but in the moment it was hot as fuck.

  He lapped up all of her honeyed milk and then lightly kissed her hairless mound. She sat up on the table covering her beet red face with both hands. He drew her into his arms, stroking her back.

  “Don’t be ashamed, Sweet Girl. That was beautiful, and so hot that I can barely move from the pain of my ridiculous hard-on.”

  “Good. Now it’s your turn. I’m not going to be the only one making a fool outta themselves.” She said indignantly.

  She jumped down off the table, grabbed him by the front of his shirt, he let her lift him out of the chair and then pushed him down onto the couch. She slid down to her knees between his legs. Then she made quick work of his belt, unbuttoned his pants and lowered the zipper. She pulled the waistbands to his jeans and boxer-briefs down his hips, until his monster erection was freed. ‘Release the Kraken’!

  Sunny didn’t hesitate; she licked up his shaft like a Popsicle, finishing off by lapping up the fluid collected at the tip. His blood pounded in his ears and he groaned at the sensations her wet tongue and lush lips were giving him.

  She swirled her tongue around the purple head. He didn’t know how she would be able to fit any of him in her small mouth, but he waited with bated breath, his chest rising and falling with the effort to breathe. She spread her plump lips and plunged down the length of him, as far as she could go. Only making it about a quarter of the way down, but it was enough to make him bark out a cry of pleasure.

  Gabe’s hands made their way into Sunny’s messy curls. Not trying to force her further, but for the need to hold on to something. She slid her hands up to stroke him where her mouth couldn’t go. Sunny bobbed her head and made matching rotating strokes up and down his thick shaft.

  “Shit Sunny! That feels so fucking good.” Gabe shouted out.

  His encouragement made her pick up the pace. He watched her little mouth devour him and his heavy sac tightened with the need of relief.

  “Ah Sunny, stop! I’m gonna come, you don’t have to…” He tried pulling away from her.

  Sunny held on tighter and when she looked up at him with loving determination in her eyes as she feasted on him, he lost all control.

  “Ah God…SUNNY!” Gabe roared out as he burst in her mouth.

  She swallowed everything he had to give, groaning in delight over the pleasure she gave him. And for the first time in his life, Gabe stayed rock hard, as if he hadn’t just came. He pulled her up and tossed her on her hands and knees on the couch as if she weighed nothing. Flipping up her skirt, he s
oftly caressed her round plump golden-brown ass and then slapped it firmly. The shock of the smack making her clench and he slammed into her at the same time. Sunny screamed into the cushion of the couch so loudly that it still pierced his ears.

  Something inside him snapped and he hammered into her making her cheeks ripple with the force. The trailer was filled with the sounds of their skin slapping together and their cries of pleasure.

  Sunny’s thighs started to shake uncontrollably and her inner walls started to quake with the first signs of an impending orgasm. Gabe’s scrotum drew up, also ready to explode.

  “Come for me.” Gabe bent over to growl in her ear.

  And with that, her back bowed and his hips pummeled as they climaxed together. Their wails mixed together as they collapsed in a heap on the couch. The perspiration from their exertion combining to make their skin and clothes stick against each other, their labored breathing slowly calming down.

  “Oh. My. God! I think I need a cigarette.” She paused. “What was that?!” Sunny exhaled loudly.

  “I have absolutely no idea, but sex with you has been the best sex of my life!” Gabe exclaimed passionately against her back.

  “Really?” She asked shocked, but pleased.

  “Yes! And what’s crazy is that it’s different every time. I have no idea what to expect going in. Pun intended.” He chuckled in between kissing her one bare shoulder.

  “I concur.” She smiled into the couch cushion.

  Gabe slowly disentangled himself from Sunny’s lifeless limbs. “I’m gonna get in the shower. It’s a little shower, but you can join me if you’d like, it’ll be tight, but we can fit. And plus, it’s just how I like you…up close and personal.” She didn’t move, so he smacked her ass making her yelp and sit up quickly.

  “By the way…I owe you for that ass-slap you gave me earlier!” She glowered at him.

  “What?! I was in the moment!” Gabe held up his hands defensively.
