When I wake up, I'm lost, I can't remember going to bed. The thought of last night flooded my brain, and I'm a little horrified at myself. Again a live sex show. Why can't I say no? Well I know why, but why don't I do it? They probably think I'm some weird sex maniac. I then realize my head is lying on someone's chest. I keep my eyes closed and listen. He's breathing peaceful and deep, he must still be asleep. I move my head a little and open my eyes. I recognize that jawline and internally I cry a little. He stayed, my soulmate and the mark rejoiced having him so close. I try to see the alarm clock for the time and sigh in horror when I see the time, 9.28 am. Oh fuck I'm late. No not today, the first performance is tonight and the day is filled with stage and wardrobe rehearsals and I need to be there at 10 o'clock. Shit, shit. The drive there alone takes an hour and a half. He woke up when I sat up abruptly, groggily rubbing the sleep from his eyes, he mumbles, "what is happening?" I give him a quick kiss. "I'm so sorry, I would love to just lie here with you, but I'm so late. I need to leave right away. I'm expected for tonight's performance. I'll see you later tonight at the show. Mike has all of your tickets and he'll be picking you up at 5.30 pm." I jump out of the bed before he can wind his arms around me. I rush to the bathroom and do my morning routine the fastest I've ever done it. I've never been this late in my life before. Last night really wore me out. A smile spreads over my face, thinking back how he loved me. Wait? What? I meant fucked, I know I love him, but for him this is just sex. When I'm ready to leave the bathroom I'm blocked by him leaning against the doorframe watching me. "Sorry, but can you move, I'm so late", I ask trying to pull him out of the way. He solidifies his stance and it's impossible for me to move him. I drop my arms and glare at him, getting angry. "I'm sorry if I was a little too much last night", he says nervously. What? Seriously? Now? Would you listen to him now if you were me? I really can't even though I want to. "Could we do this later? I really need to go", I ask stroking my hand down his cheek. I lean in and kiss him again, and his arms hug me close, deepening the kiss. Please not now, it's like he does it on purpose. Just a little longer and I kiss back hungrily. When the pressure of being late gets to me, i wrench myself back and look at him pleadingly. "Later, okay?" I ask again, and he nods, stepping aside. "Thank you. See ya", and with those words hanging in the air I rush out of my room. I ran down the stairs, luckily I already packed my bag and put it by the front door. Arriving downstairs, input on my shoes, grab the keys and run to my car, no time for more goodbyes. I don't even know if they are awake yet. I throw my bag on the backseat, jump in, start the car and drive away. I dial the number for the Show-manager, and after a few rings, it gets picked up.
Manager: Nadja?, Where are you?
Me: I'm so sorry, somehow the alarm didn't go off this morning.
I respond, the little lie slipping out without my consent. I completely missed setting the alarm in the first place. Something distracted me last night, you can guess by what I imagine. Every time last night flits through my mind, a big smile can be found on my face. I loved last night, even if I'm a little shocked at myself. I didn't even protest once, I just went along with it right away.
Manager: So when will you be here?
Me: Uhm…. at 11.30 am
Manager: Seriously? Now I need to change the schedule. Luke and you were the second to get fitted, and dance. I already switched. Why do you do this to me?
Me: I didn't do it on purpose. Sorry.
I say a little peeved. Does he really think I would do this? I was never late, always too early in fact. And the first time it happens he acts like I do this all the time.
Me: I'll be there as soon as I can, besides, I already tried the clothes last time, and danced a little, I should be fine.
Manager: It better be. Fine, see you when you're here.
He disconnects the call before I can say goodbye. Well asswipe, you just got moved to my rude people list, and you're not getting off any time soon. Not that I'm going to act all bitchy, it'll be friendly but distant. I put on some music, and sing along to pass the time driving. When I finally get there, I rush in, and almost immediately get dragged to the changing room by Luke. He was waiting for me just inside, figures. He pushes me in and closes the door. I see the clothes and remember what he wore. I change into the matching set to his and exit the room. He grabs my wrist again and pulls me along quite harshly. When we're on the stage, I rip my arm from him and glare. He grins, "why are you so late? Were you fucking one of those boys I saw you with that one time?" God I hate him so much. Why does he care? We're not together, he has no say over me. "That's none of your business", I grit out. Luckily the music starts and with it the rehearsal. I move the practiced steps and he follows, and we're in sync, making it look even more impressive. Fortunately for me, Luke is a professional, never falling out of line during a performance. If he were to be like that always, he could be friendly, never date material for me, but friendly. The song ends, and we tell the producers of the show, the clothes are suited, we change, and repeat the whole process for all the wardrobe changes. When we're done, I leave Luke and look for some friendly faces, to kill the time. The show starts at 7.30 pm. I find Fiona and Mina, with Alfred and Aubrey at the snack table, happily conversing and munching on some snacks. I join them and greet them. They're happy to see me, "So Nadja, how are the tattoos healing?" Alfred asks me, I show him my wrist and he inspects it with an expert's eye. Nodding happily, he releases my hand and it gets snatched by Mina, pulling my wrist close in front of her eyes, I get almost pulled over the snack table. "Oooh, what's this? It looks like weird symbols", she says with confusion clear on her face as she inspects the tattoo. "Not weird symbols, but Hangul. It's Korean", I answer, gently pulling my arm back and now Fiona and Aubrey want to see too. "And the other one?" Alfred asked next, and he doesn't wait and swipes my hair away and inspects the one on my neck. "Looks good." Naturally the other three check that one out too. "Oh no, that needs to be covered up for the show", a new voice says and I turn towards its source. Ah mister asswipe himself, still being rude. "Okay", I say and turn around again, leaving him standing there dumbfounded. Normally I would object, and he knows that. We've had quite a few discussions over the last few weeks. I don't spend my energy on rude people, it'll only frustrate me and that's counter-productive. "Oh, and before I forget, I'll have an announcement after the show tonight, so before you leave…", he chuckles creepily, "come to the green room, okay?" He leaves us alone and I'm a little hungry, so I get me some fresh fruit and look for a place to lounge and wait away the time. The others follow me and we chat about everything. When it's 6.30 pm, we hear people entering the venue, making a lot of noise. The performance is held in a soccer stadium, the stage in the middle, so the people can stand around the whole stage, and see it from every angle. There is just a small walkway kept free of people so us dancers can get to the stage. It's a clear night in november. The chill in the air getting into the stadium, it would be insane to try to heat such a big space. I'm not worried about the cold though, dancing will keep me warm, and the body heat of so many people will help as well, and the stage lights will do the rest. Mike and the boys will arrive soon. Knowing they will be watching me, fills me with an indescribable feeling. I don't dwell on it now, as I need to focus on everything that needs to happen, to make tonight go as perfect as possible. I already wore the outfit of the first dance, Luke and me opened the show, with one of the dances we did on the show, so most of the audience already knows this one. While picking which dances we were going to do, Luke insisted on at least two ballroom dances. He wanted more, but I wouldn't budge, two was all he was getting. So the first one tonight is a cha cha, and I'm wearing a pink, short dress, it just barely covers my ass. It reveals quite a lot of skin, as the dance is sexy, as most latin-ballroom is. Luke and I wait till it's time, and we get on the stage. The performance goes smoothly and the applause is deafening. It makes me happy to hear. We get off the stage and get replaced by the next couple. The night progresses and every dance is performed beautifully. The show gets closed by Fiona, Mina and me and my favorite out of all the dances I have to do. I really want to see the reaction of the boys, but I still haven't found them in the audience. Are they even here? The song starts and we dance the steps Jo Jo created. The audience goes wild, whistling with every sexy move we do. Once the song is over we get joined by every dancer on this show, and we say our goodbye to the audience and thank them for coming. We get ushered back to the green room and wait for asswipe. I'm curious what he has to say. He better make it quick, I desperately want to go home. He finally arrives and a hush settles over us, waiting for him to speak. He takes a deep breath, "as you know our next performance is next week, but we booked 5 more nights between now and then. It's in the neighbouring country, the first show is just over the border, and you'll be staying in a hotel. So choose your roommate, or mates and I'll see you in 15 minutes on the bus, we leave tonight." My whole body is filled with horror, away for six to seven nights, in a hotel where Luke roams free. Oh just kill me now. I text Mike to ask him where they are. And rush away, hoping to find them quickly, only thirteen minutes left. Of course I don't have any change of clothes, nor do the others. Only Asswipe will have all he needs, because he knew beforehand. How nice of him. No matter, shopping is mandatory now. I'll just get new clothes. While I'm running around trying to find them I text Mina, asking to bunk together with Fiona. Her answer is immediate and we three will share a room, hopefully they can help me to keep Luke away. I know Mina had a thing for him, but he dropped her after the sex, so she hates him now as much as I. Finally Mike responds and I rush to where they are. It almost takes me 5 minutes to get to them, so I only have six minutes left, to inform them and get to the bus. I'm not so sure I'm going to make it, and then Asswipe will have one more reason to hate me. Not that I care if he likes me or not, I couldn't care less. I finally reach the boys, totally out of breath, and I clutch my chest, trying to make air flow to my lungs so I can speak. The boys don't notice my state and happily start on congratulating me on a well performed performance. Tyler is the first to notice and he quiets the boys so I can speak. "I'm so sorry, but there has been a huge change of plans with the schedule. They booked another 5 venues, the first tomorrow, and I leave tonight and I won't be back till somewhere next week. As a matter of fact I need to go now, or I miss the bus", I say checking the time. The boys look confused, so I tell Mike the same, but in the local language, making it a little easier to talk. Mike assures me he'll let the boys know, and I wave at them and zoom away to where the bus is. I take my seat, away from Luke and close my eyes, I don't want to talk to anybody at the moment. When I'm about to drift off my Phone makes a noise. Someone wants to talk, and I have an idea who that might be. I get my phone, unlock it and open the app.
Vere: Wait? What just happened?
Tyler: Mike just told us. Weren't you listening?
Vere: I was. I just don't understand.
Me: Sorry Vere. I'll tell you. The show booked 5 more performances I need to do. The first one is tomorrow. But as it's over the country's border, we left tonight. I'll be back somewhere next week.
Vere: Next week?
Tyler: You gonna be okay?
Me: I'll be fine. Don't worry.
Adam: We'll miss you.
Vere: Me too.
Jay: Me three.
Xavier: Yes, yes she understands. WE will miss you. All of us.
Me: How about one of you texts me at night. That way it's like we're together. You guys decide who gets which night. Deal?
Quinn: Great.
Kaiden: I'm in.
Vere: Me too.
Jay: I think we're all in. And you can expect a text from one of us at night.
Me: Great. Miss you guys. Talk to you soon. Bye.
Tyler: Goodbye Nadja. You looked great tonight.
Xavier: No, no she looked fabulous, just like me.
Quinn: I think she looked sexy as hell.
Kaiden: We all think you looked hot tonight. Goodbye Nadja.
I laugh at myself, they make me happy, even through some texts. I lock my phone, put it away and try to sleep again. I get woken by Mina, shaking my shoulder, "we're here", she said, nodding her head at the window and I look out, but it's dark out, so I need to get off the bus to see. I make my way down the bus and get out, Due to not being prepared, I only have one bag with me. I get down the steps and look around, We're parked in front of the hotel, It looks nice from the outside, but that doesn't mean anything. In front of the hotel is a large fountain, but it's blocked from view by the bus, but I can hear it. Other cars drive to and from, loading and unloading people, usually men in suits and sometimes a woman. The rest is waiting by the door of the hotel. So we go over to them and we enter the hotel. We gave our sleeping arrangement to Asswipe on the bus, so he is the only one going over to check-in. We make ourselves comfortable in the lobby, some expelling the energy they conserved on the busride over. I laugh with the rest at their antics, but internally I just want to go to bed and sleep, and tomorrow and the rest of the week will be on repeat. Finally we get our key to the room, Fiona , Mina and I take the elevator to the seventh floor and check our room out. It's a standard room with a small bathroom, two queen-sized beds, a desk, TV, and some chairs. Fiona and Mina don't mind sharing a bed together, so I get the other one all to myself. I claim the shower first and wash myself quickly. Can't take too long, the other two also want to use it. I rush through my routine after the shower. When I get out, Fiona is already waiting and she enters as soon as I'm out, I'm only wearing my underwear, not having anything else with me. First thing tomorrow I'll go shopping, so I have some clothes. "Hey do you two wanna join me tomorrow to go shopping? I need clothes. Do you need clothes?", I ask her as I sit down on my bed. I don't mind paying for them, I've got way too much money anyway. "You didn't expect this to happen, did you?", she asked, waving her arms around to indicate the whole situation. I laugh, shaking my head, "absolutely not. I hoped to sleep in my own bed tonight." She smiles an evil little grin. Not evil evil, like murder, but more like, evil mischief, "and have some bedplay with one of those hunky boys, or even more?", she wiggles her eyebrows and I laugh out loud, holding my hand in front of my mouth, to silence it somewhat. She is a dirty-minded one, but I don't mind. My mind is mostly in the gutter anyway. "Let's just say that when I came home from the practices, I got a visit from one of them." Her mouth drops open, "I only meant it as a joke, I didn't expect for it to be true", she exclaims with shock. I shrug my shoulders and smile. I scoot back on my bed and sit crossed-legged, with my phone next to me. I hope to get a text and see who the lucky one is. "So", Mina scoots closer to the edge of her bed, putting her feet on the floor, "who is the best in bed?" She shifts on the bed, and then sits on the edge of my bed getting closer. "Well, to be honest. I can't choose, they are all great, very different but great", she looks at me in disbelief. "I don't believe that", she says, pointing at me, "one of them has to be the best. That's how it works." Fiona comes out of the bathroom and only hears the last part of Mina's sentence, "How what works?", she asked Mina, sitting on the empty bed. She too is in her underwear, so they do need clothes. Mina sighs experassed, "Nadja here has sex with more than one, and claims no one is the best, or even better then some of them." She looks at Fiona, who smiles back, "Sex with who?", she looks at me, and I giggle, typical Fiona, not giving in to Mina. "Uhm... six so far", I softly say, and Fiona's and Mina's eyes grow big, "S-s-six?", Mina stutters, "I was more thinking maybe three, but six. Holy cow. You seduce them, or they you?", eagerly looking at me, completely forgetting to be a little mad at me. "They all kissed me, but I made it quite obvious that I would let them, so mostly them." Both girls squeals and bounce up and down on the bed. Then Mina looks at me sternly, "Now there has to be one who kisses the best, and don't say you can't choose, I won't buy that", she looks serious, so maybe I should give her a half truth. "Sorry, I'm not going to pick one, like I said, all different and unique, so they're equally great", I hold my finger up to silence Mina, who was about to protest. She shuts her mouth and waits, grumbling a little. I hear Fiona giggling at Mina, and I smile to myself, "but, there are three kisses I got, that stand out, and make up the top three of my top seven." Mina gets off the bed and turns to me, pointing her finger, "I'm going to take a shower now, but when I get back, I want to know more. Please wait for me?" I nod and she disappears inside the bathroom. Fiona isn't the talkative type, and I don't mind either way. After 5 minutes of silence, Fiona looked at her phone and me just sitting on my bed, being bored out of my mind. I really didn't bring anything with me. Not even a charger for my phone, so I can't even read, conserving battery. Another thing I need to get tomorrow. Then my phone lights up, and I eagerly grab it, something to occupy my mind with. I open the app and see who is texting me.
Foxy: Hey Nadja. Guess what?
Me: What?
Foxy: I'm first.
Me: Haha, I figured. You sound happy about it?
Foxy: I am. I get to talk to you. I must say you looked good on stage tonight. By far my favorite out of everyone I saw tonight.
Me: Aaah thank you. Which was your favorite routine?
Foxy: Oh, absolutely the last one. That was some sexy dancing. It made me think of all the times we danced. In bed and out of it.
Me: Really? Specifics please?
Foxy: Well, there's this one time, were we first kissed. And then there's something with breakfast.
Me: Are you shy?
Foxy: What? No, what makes you say that?
Me: Well, you're not very specific. Here, I'll show you. You know that time when I sucked your cock, and you kept hitting the back of my throat, I swallowed and you almost came?
Foxy: Brain is not functioning properly anymore, the visuals you create are very detailed.
Me: Was that bad? Don't you like it?
Foxy: No, no I loved it. It just transported me back and now I'm hard and you're not here to help me.
Me: Well have a wet dream of me then. Goodbye Foxy.
Foxy: Goodnight Angel and sleep tight.
I shut my phone off and put it on the nightstand. Mina comes out, only wearing underwear. "So you do need clothes?", I ask, crossing my arms in front of my chest, pushing my breasts up and creating a nice cleavage. She eyes it and licks her lips, wait? She likes girls? Or maybe both? She was with Luke though. I mentally shrug, I don't care. "Yeah, you caught us, we do need clothes", she shifts on her feet and doesn't look at me, "why didn't you say so when I asked you?", I continue to question her. I feel like I'm pulling teeth, getting the answers out of her. "What are you going to do about it?" She challenges me. I grin at her, "buy you clothes, just the essentials. My treat", their eyes grow big again. "No we could never accept that", Fiona pipes up. I wave her comment away, "you both are joining me, no arguing. Going alone is so boring." Both smile at me, and Mina even hugs me. Her hands wander a bit, and the hugs last longer than necessary. Mina releases me and sits more comfortably on my bed. Fiona does the same where she is sitting and then both look at me expectantly. "Top three right?", and Mina nods, curiosity written all over her face. "I'll start with the number three then. Mind you, like I said they are all great kissers, but these stand out , firstly, all are first kisses, secondly, the circumstances. So I was dancing, and all came to watch, you know they are a kpop group right?", they nod again, Mina waving her hands to make me continue. "Well, the next song that came on was one sung by one of them, and half way through the song he joins me dancing and sings the song to me. And at the end he kissed me." They looked awed, and I giggle, happy the story is as good as the actual memory. "He sang to you? And then you kissed?", I nod. Will they like the other two as well, I know, I'll ask how they would rank them, I'm curious to know. "Now the second one. He made a song for me, the lyrics describing every sinful act he wants to do to me. The best dirty talking I've ever heard. And just before I leave him, I tell him I would let him do everything the song described, to me. And before I know it he has me in his arms and the kiss happened." Wow, it looks like they even like this one better. "And it didn't stay with just a kiss, some clothes left my body as well and he gave me an orgasm", I add, and Fiona's mouth drops open in a perfect O. Mina just sighs dreamily. "Ready for the next one, my number one?", I ask, and Fiona nods her head up and down, looking like that doll that bobs his head when it's moved. Mina doesn't respond, still dreaming. I snap my fingers in front of her face, she jumps out of her daze, "what?" I laugh, "I wanted to know if you were ready for my number one?" She says, "yes", clapping her hands, sitting up more, her whole attention on me. " so the last one, it also was the very first one out of the seven. This one happened at that party, at the club, just after the show ended. I was in the back, on my way to get some alone time to focus for the performance we did. I got pushed into the dark room, so I didn't know who it was. I know now, not back then. The kiss was in the dark, and also more than just kissing, there was some touching and grinding", I finished, and Mina flops down on her back and hugs herself, and Fiona waves her hands in front of her face. She must be hot, "so, I'm curious to know, how would you rate these kisses. Just think about them happening to you, which one is three, two and one?" Fiona taps her index finger on her lower lip, and Mina sits up again. She looks at me, but her eyes are far away, so she isn't really seeing me. Fiona opens her mouth first, bringing Mina back from where she was. "I would switch your number one for number three, and that's it", she says with a dreamy look on her face. "Kissing someone who I haven't seen, seems scary to me, and receiving a song is special, but someone singing to you is so romantic", she fans her face again. Mina shakes her head at Fiona, "That's not how I feel. I think I keep the same number three, but switch one and two. Receiving a song is more than special, there is a lot more to creating a song, than just singing it. And the one in the dark, doesn't look scary, but I do like a little bit of mystery." Fiona crawls under the sheets and Mina goes and slips under them as well. Oh, we're done, so I crawl under my sheets and remove my bra, I don't like to wear them when I sleep. "So wait", Fiona says leaning up on her elbows, "How do you know who kissed you in the dark?" I giggle, "Oh that was easy, when he kissed me again, I recognized him. He doesn't know I know", I whisper that last part. We keep silent, each of us, deep in thought. At some point I must have dozed off.
The next thing my brain registers, is Mina bouncing on my bed to wake me up. The sheet slips down and when she sees I'm not wearing my bra, she stops and turns away, but I still catch the blush spreading over her cheeks. I smile, and get out of bed, and pick my bra from the floor and put it on, "good morning. You can turn around now", I say grabbing the rest of my clothes and dress. I go to the bathroom and do my morning routine quickly. I'm followed by Mina. I'm hungry and want breakfast. Fiona is still sitting groggily in bed and Mina comes back out of the bathroom. "Good morning to you too", Mina answers back, pulling on Fiona's arm to get her out of bed. Fiona growls, and Mina whines, "come on Fi, I need my coffee, and I'm hungry." I smile, seeing them this close. "Fine, fine. I'm up", Fiona says irritated, she clearly isn't a morning person. We wait for her to finish and then we take the elevator to the floor of the restaurant that serves breakfast. Oh it looks like we're last, we find the table with the rest and peruse the breakfast buffet. When we're eating, all ten of us, Asswipe, comes in and stands at the head of the table. "I have some bad news for those who thought they could relax till tonight." Shit, please no. I need new clothes, I can't wear these any longer. He really hates me, I know he is not doing it just to spite me, but it sure feels that way, especially when he looks at me every time he has bad news, a creepy grin on his face. I look at him, waiting for the bomb to drop.
3rd POV
Meanwhile at an airport, seven girls get off the plane that just landed. They head to baggage claim to get their suitcases, and then go outside to find a taxi to take them to their hotel. All of them are excited, the plan coming to fruition. The boys are within reach. 'Just 4 more weeks before the bitch is gone', A thought happily, enough time to scope everything out, and formulate the next phase of the plan.
'Everything is finally coming together, and we'll get what we deserve'
