Drum's heartbeat

Slay me

Zoe POV:

As I’m getting ready to head out with the band for a smoke sesh at a weed bar, I wonder what to put on that will get a reaction out of Storm. I shouldn’t be thinking that, but at the same time, I wouldn’t mind being eye candy for the rock star I’ve had a crush on since the band formed.

I put on a silver silk dress with silver chains as the straps. It was edgy with a touch of s*x goddess. Ha! s*x goddess? I haven’t even had s*x in 7 months. Unless you count Mr. Purple. Mr. Purple is my purple dildo that has amazing vibration settings. Yeah, it’s been that kind of year.

I apply a bit of makeup and straighten my curls that haven’t been straightened in a year. I didn’t realize how long my hair had gotten until it was straight. f**k it, I’m going all out tonight. I slip on my “f**k me” heels, even though I don’t plan on doing any of that tonight.

Nope. Tonight I am going to be a good girl.

As I head to the living room of the suite the guys are all dressed to impress, with different colored button-downs, suit pants, and designer jeans. They were all so drop-dead sexy, and I couldn’t believe my luck.

As soon as they spotted me all their conversations stopped and their mouths dropped. I walked towards them casually, and said, “Sorry I took so long.”

Grayson clears his throat and looks away almost uncomfortably, Steel’s gray eyes are wide open, Jax’s face was unreadable and the one I had actually wanted to impress was looking into my eyes with his green ones with such a heated desire that it almost seemed like lasers would shoot from his eyes as they traveled up and down my body. I shivered slightly under his gaze, enjoying it a lot more than I care to admit.

“f**k’s sake.” Storm says in a rush of air, as his eyes met mine again. My chest heaved a bit and I gulped. s**t. I may have gotten a little more than I bargained for.

“Zoe... your f*****g killing it! Slay me please,” Steel says as he strokes my ego and I laugh suddenly nervous.

“Thanks,” I say in a small voice. Jax chuckles.

“Perhaps we’ll need more bodyguards after all if Zoe is going to come with us looking like that.” Grayson nods in agreement.

“Guys, stop making me blush!” I tell them hiding my cheeks and Storm smirks at me. Then he grabs his wallet from the coffee table and whispers in my ear as he walks past me. His minty breath ghosting over my skin.

“Stop making us hard.”

That alone made my panties soaked, though I had only cared about one particular person being hard for me. f**k! I’m done for.

Storm POV:

As we get into the limo I sit next to the silver goddess, before any of these bozos get to her first. We were a few inches away in the limo booth, and my nose was blessed by the sweet scent of her perfume. I wanted nothing more than to have this stunning woman in my bed, but she may not want the same thing.

However, her eyes slyly roam over my body, checking me out. I knew she did have some kind of interest in me, and damn... that was better than nothing.

“Okay everyone let’s make a game out of tonight’s adventures. The person who is visibly the highest by the end of the night has to do one dare from each person.” Jax says with a challenging expression and I chuckle deeply and shake my head.

“I have a high tolerance so I already know I have this one in the bag,” I tell him and he rubs his hands together with an evil smirk.

“I can already bet it’s going to be Grayson’s low tolerance ass to get the highest.” Steel says laughing and Grayson flicks him off.

“You guys are serious about this little game?” Zoe asks and the fact that she is interested makes me wonder if she can smoke us under the table. And she doesn’t seem like much of a drinker, so...

“Hell yeah, you’re up for the challenge?” I ask her and she nods.

“Sounds like fun.”

Once we arrived we are greeted by a bunch of screaming fans. Most of them are women and many of them flash their t**s at us as their boyfriends look at them in horror.

Good lord almighty. The nerve of some people. I won’t deny that I love a nice set of t**s, but these women don’t have any restrain these days.

Zoe groans beside me as if she was thinking the same thing I was. Grayson blew kisses to the woman as our bodyguards ushered us in and led us toward the private VIP. Fans were yelling our names and trying to reach for us as our bodyguards yell at them to back off.

The inside of the weed bar was so hazy I’m sure you could get high just by walking through it. Then once we’re in VIP. I fall onto the chill couch with bongs already in place and jars of weed were on the shelves all around us. 100 percent of the walls were covered by band posters and trippy art. The sofa was u shaped, black, and studded with what I’m assuming are quartz crystals. Soft rock music filled the room perfectly.

“If this is not the best place to get high I don’t know what is. Look, they even have a freaking Sega!” Steel says as he points to the old-school video game console.

“f**k yeah let’s get faded,” Grayson says as they all sit down and Zoe sits next to me. Interesting. It seems she wants to be near me tonight, as much as I want to be near her. It makes me wonder if she dressed up for me too. Me and my big ass ego, and wishful thinking.

“Hey Steel, what happened to Mr. b***r? I thought you said you would invite him. He shrugs.

“I guess Mr. b***r is tied down on someone else’s bed tonight.” He says with a sigh beside me and I pat his back.

“His loss, now pass the bong.” Steel takes the first hit and passes it to me. I then pass it to Zoe who takes a nice hit and giggles.

“It tastes like chocolate chip cookies.” She says with a smile before passing it to Jax.

“That’s some high-quality cookie kush, baby!” Jax says after taking his hit and passing it to Grayson.

“Hey, Steel I thought you said this place had a drum kit,” Zoe asks Steel who sits on the other side of me.

“Yeah it does, but I don’t think I would be safe for any of us to be outside of VIP.” He tells her and I nod in agreement.

“This is something you’ll have to get used to Zoe. Even now I’m barely used to it.” I tell her and she nods in understatement.

“Who’s down to battle me in Street Fighter?” Jax asks as he picks up a Sega remote.

“Me!” Steel says as he walks over to Jax and grabs the other remote.

Zoe bites her lip thoughtfully as if not knowing what to say, and for the first time... I don’t know what to say either.

“So...”

“So...” she mimics me with a small smile.

“What’s it like to have a rock legend as a father?”

She huffs and shrugs.

“There were some good times and bad times. As you already know, dad struggled with addiction to heroin and cocaine, and it nearly killed him. Living with him as a kid had its ups and downs.”

God damn it, how could I forget Kevin went through all of that?

“s**t, I’m sorry. I shouldn’t have asked.”

She shakes her head with a small smile.

“It’s okay. He’s better now, and he still plays the drums every now and then.”

“Oh, good.”

She looks into my eyes with a soft expression before saying, “You look nice dressed up, I don’t think I’ve seen you in anything but ripped jeans and a t-shirt.”

I smile at her and look at her dress.

“You look nice as well. Did you dress up for me?”

“You wish.” She says but her eyes tell me something different.
