After dinner, we take a walk along the river, holding hands while talking about our upcoming time off. We’ll be going to the theme parks between shows in Tampa and Orlando, and then the entire band and crew will have a one-week break for the Fourth of July.
“I was planning to go back to New York,” she admits sheepishly. “At the time, we weren’t talking and...” She shrugs.
“Well, now we are.” I guide her over to a darkened area that leads to an alley between two buildings. I can see Justin’s following us, but he keeps his distance, so we have our privacy. “Gage, Declan, and I rented a place next to Camden. His parents and sisters are coming down as well, and so is Layla’s mom. It’ll be fun.”
“I don’t know,” she says cheekily. “I’d hate to intrude and ruin your fun...”
I back her against the wall and, with our fingers threaded, lift her hands over her head. “Ruin the fun?” I part her legs with my knee and rub my thigh along her center. “I plan for you to be the fun.” I bring my lips to the curve of her neck and suckle on her soft flesh, making her moan.
When she pulls her hands out of mine, I release her, kissing my way up to her earlobe. Her arms snake around my neck, and she hops up, making me catch her as she encircles her legs around my waist, her heels digging into my back. “I say we start the fun now,” she murmurs, grinding herself against me.
“Not here,” I say, nipping at her lobe. “When I fuck you, I want you in nothing but those damn heels.”
“Well, then what are you waiting for?”
CHAPTER EIGHTEEN
KAYLEE
“Uncle Brax!” Felix yells, running over and latching his little arms around Braxton’s legs. While Camden grabs Layla’s and Felix’s bags, giving his wife a quick kiss, Braxton carries Felix over to the SUV waiting for us. The bodyguards surround us so nobody can get close, but several people stand around taking photos that will end up on social media within minutes. I’m already messaging Bailey to warn her so she can keep an eye out for anything that shouldn’t be posted. Camden and Layla are big on not allowing pictures of Felix to be posted, and if anyone does post them, they demand them to be taken down.
“I’m so excited!” Felix shouts as Braxton buckles him in. I can’t help smiling as I watch the two of them together. Braxton might be this badass, tattooed, and pierced rock star to the world, but the second Felix is in his arms, he turns into a complete softy.
Layla’s eyes meet mine, and she smirks, having caught me staring. “Bet he’d make a great dad,” she whispers.
“Don’t get any ideas. We’re taking things slow.”
“Yeah, okay.” She scoffs. “I was on the phone with Camden and heard you guys taking things slow.”
My face heats in embarrassment, which has Layla cackling. The drive from Jacksonville was only three hours, but it was spent with Braxton inside me the entire time. I tried to be quiet... I swear I did. But the guy has made it his personal mission to pull as many orgasms out of me as possible every time we’re together, and despite the bus being luxurious and worth millions, it’s still just that... a bus. And when I try to remain quiet, Braxton takes it as a challenge to make me scream that much louder.
“Mommy said we’re going on fifty hundred rides!” Felix announces, and I’ve never been so thankful for a subject change in my life.
“Fifty hundred rides, huh?” I say. “That’s a lot of rides.”
“Uh-huh,” he agrees. “You gonna go on the rides with me?” Felix asks, flashing his expertly staged puppy dog eyes that he knows I don’t stand a chance against. “Mommy can’t ’cause she’s too fat.”
Braxton snorts out a laugh, then quickly schools his features. “She’s not fat, buddy. She’s pregnant... with your little sister.”
“Her belly is super fat,” he argues. “She won’t fit on the rides.”
“Well, that’s true,” he concedes. “But it’s not nice to call her fat. She’s pregnant.”
Felix shrugs. “Okay, but you and Kaylee will go on the rides with me, right?”
“Of course we will,” I tell him. “I’ve never been on the rides either.”
“Where’s Gage?” Layla asks, looking around.
“At the hotel. He’s not feeling well,” Camden says.
The truth is, he went out on a bender last night and nearly got alcohol poisoning. I was afraid we were going to have to take him to the hospital, but thankfully, we didn’t need to.
Layla sighs. “We need to—”
“You don’t need to do anything,” Camden says, cutting her off. “You’re pregnant and shouldn’t be stressed.”
“But—”
“But nothing.” He gives her a kiss. “You’re here to have a good time. It’s our last trip with Felix before we bring our little girl into this world.” He rubs her belly, and her shoulders visibly lower. “Gage is at the hotel room, sleeping it off. He had a rough night, but he’s fine.”
