Sing a Song of Love (4 page)

I feathered kisses down her creamy,
soft stomach and I could smell her wet pussy calling to me as I pushed her legs
apart and buried my head in her wetness.  Wow she tasted so good and I loved
the way her hips started to move as I sucked on her clit. 

I slipped a couple of fingers
in and could feel her pussy starting to pulse and knew her orgasm was not far
off.

I rolled over on to my back
and pulled on a condom and lifted her on to my hard dick.  Christ her pussy
felt good and the way it tightened in waves around my shaft drove me crazy. 

I took a deep breath so I
didn’t come too early but all I could see was those gorgeous tits jiggling up
and down and I grabbed her hips to quicken the tempo and was glad to see Jess
was nearly their too. 

I reached down and firmly
stroked her and felt her orgasm intensify as the walls of her pussy got tighter
around me.  It sent me over the edge and I couldn’t help but call out her name
as I felt myself spurt over and over again inside her.

Jess dropped her head onto my
chest and I could hear her fighting to regain her breath over her racing
heart.  I buried my head in her curls and let the scent I had come to associate
with her flow through me. 

I knew the time had come to
end this pretence.  What had started off as a mission to help her had transformed
into something else and it was doing my head in!   Jess deserved the truth and
also if I was honest, I was starting to be concerned by my own feelings.  I
needed to get my house in order and focus on what I had come over here to do
and that was to ensure the success of the High Land Boys first tour and new
single.

Jess felt totally relaxed on
my chest and her deep rhythmic breathing let me know that the talk would have
to wait.  She was out cold and they say us guys are chronic at that!  I smiled
to myself glad of the reprieve and settled down to listen to the mesmerizing
sound of the waves crashing below mingled with Jessie’s breathing. 

We woke to the sound of a
phone ringing and it was dark.  We must have slept for about four hours, making
up for the lack of sleep the night before.  Jess was all befuddled as she
searched for the phone.  I was enjoying her naked romp as she looked for it and
was disappointed when she found it in her tote bag and jumped back under the
covers.

“It was my oldest sister. 
She is expecting her third kid in a few more weeks so I better ring her back,”
and she proceeded to ring her sister while I started to tease her nipples
again.  She playfully slapped my hand away and tried to look stern while she
waited for her sister to answer.

“Hey Ems, sorry I missed your
call.  Is everything ok?”  From Jess’s squeals of excitement I guessed it was
good news and that baby had decided to arrive a few weeks early.  They talked
for a few more minutes before Jess rang off.

“My sisters’ waters just
broke and I said I would meet her at hospital as soon as I can.  The last baby
arrived in less than four hours so I haven’t got much time as it takes about
fifty minutes to drive to Whangarei.” 

Jess started to pull on
clothes hurriedly and pack her bag while asking me if I would mind saying
goodbye to Mara and also to let her know that Ems was having her baby.

“No worries Jess.  Is there
anything I can do to help you get ready faster?”

“Nope, done!”  Jess looked up
at me triumphantly and I could see she was bursting to get on the road and to
her sister.  I grabbed her bag from the floor and followed her out to her car
and stowed it in the boot while she started up the car.

“Do you want a ride down to
the pub?” Jess inquired out the window and I shook my head.

I was about to tell her to
drive carefully and ring when she had safely arrived when I realized we hadn’t
swapped numbers, but it was too late.  She was off down the drive and with a
wave and toot at the end she headed out onto the road. 

It had been a whirlwind five
minutes since she had spoken to her sister and I sat on the step to gather my
thoughts.  Jess hadn’t even asked for my number and I was a little taken a back
which was stupid since I knew I would see her on Monday.  Crap, now I wouldn’t
get to explain myself before her audition. 

It was too much to think
about so I checked the house was locked up and set off down the track to the
pub.  The dinner rush was underway and as I didn’t feel like being sociable I
asked one of the waitresses if they could organize for a plate to be sent up to
my room.

I saw Mara as I started up
the stairs and gave her a wave.  She was rushed off her feet but by the size of
her smile she looked like she thrived on it.

It was weird to get back to
my own room and I kicked off my shoes and lay down on the bed to think about
the last twenty four hours.  To say I hadn’t been prepared for my response to
Jess was an understatement and I needed to think my way out of this mess so as
not to jeopardize Jess and Cams’ audition on Monday.  Probably my best bet was
just to stay out of their way till they had performed.

Part of my mind was already
rationalizing that if they didn’t get the gig then I didn’t need to tell her. 
She had driven off as if it had been a one night stand so why was I stressing? 

I was really pissed that she
hadn’t asked for my phone number and I knew that I was overreacting but I
couldn’t help it.  Maybe it would be better if they didn’t win the audition as
touring with Jessie just sounded like a bad idea.  I had never felt like this
after a one nighter and I sure as hell wasn’t going to look too deeply into
what this was.  I didn’t want to know.

There was a knock at the door
and I opened it to find the waitress with a tray of food.  I thanked her and
took the tray to the table where I sat down to devour it.  I hadn’t realized
how hungry I was and the food helped put things in perspective. 

I still knew that Cam and
Jess were what I needed to take the boys single to the next level.  I just
hoped Jess would bring it on Monday morning.

I rang the boys to see how
they were faring down in Auckland and going by the noise in the background they
were out having fun.  I wished them a good night with strict instructions about
being sensible and rang off. 

 Alina had done a great job
with Lance so I wasn’t worried about any shenanigans.  They seemed to have very
wholesome fun considering their age and were nothing like how I had been.  In
fact I don’t think I had ever seen Lance drunk, definitely merry but he always
seemed to know when to stop. 

They were also easy to manage
on a professional level as they had a great work ethic and total determination
to succeed.  All I needed to do was pull the details together as they had the rest
covered. 

My thoughts returned to
Jessie as I drifted off to sleep and I awoke wishing she was here beside me.  I
shook it off and had a refreshing shower then turned my attention on packing up
and getting back to Auckland.

I grabbed my bag and took it
down to the rental car then headed into the reception area to settle my bill
and catch up with Mara.

I spotted her out on the
balcony with Angelo having a coffee and wandered out to join them.  They
motioned for the waitress to bring another cup of coffee and with big smiles
told me that they had just heard from Jess’s mum.  Emma had had a baby boy, and
both were doing well.

Mara turned to me and grabbed
both my hands and told me that the baby had been named after Jess’s wee brother
who had passed away when he was in his early teens.

“This is such wonderful news,
their first grandson; a little Joseph who can remind them of all the wonderful times
they had with their own Joe.  I can’t wait to head down to Whangarei and see
him.”  Mara’s eyes were damp with unshed tears but she smiled through them and
lightened the tone.

“My own children are being
very slow at giving me any grandbabies so I thank god every day for Sandra’s children. 
They have been very obliging!”  Mara looked so serious that I couldn’t help but
laugh.

“Well I hope your kids come
round to the joy of reproducing soon and I am happy for Jess’s family on the
new arrival.  She had mentioned losing Joseph and it sounded like a rough time
for all of them.” 

Mara looked at me shrewdly as
I delivered this.  “I think you guys must have hit it off eh?  Jess doesn’t
usually talk about Joseph.  When I first met you I said to Angelo you would be
good for her. You’re so calm and I can tell you like people.  So what now, you
see her back in Auckland?” 

You just couldn’t take
offense at Maras meddling as you knew it came from a really pure place so I
found myself telling her that Jess had left rather abruptly and we hadn’t
thought to exchange numbers until it was too late.

“Well that’s easy I will ring
her later with your number.  Now if you will excuse me I better go help the
girls.” 

Mara stood up and I jumped up
too and gave her a hug and she held me by both arms for a moment while she
subjected me to a long look.  Then she kissed me on both cheeks and said not to
leave the country before coming back up to say goodbye and somehow I found
myself promising that I wouldn’t. 

Wow she really was good but I
was so taken by Mara and all she stood for that I didn’t like to say no. 
Anyway the boys would love it up here and it would be a shame for them to head
home without experiencing this first. 

I shook Angelo’s hand and he
gave me a sympathetic smile and a pat on the back and with a wave I headed out
to the car.

I made good time back to
Auckland and got there in time to have lunch with the boys.  They had lots to
tell me and were really excited about tomorrow.  I asked them if they had
managed to go through the demo tapes and was pleased when they said they had
and that they too thought Cam and Jess were perfect.

“I think the contrast of
having a girl vocally back us up could really work and Cams voice is a really
good match.  He has a similar tone which will harmonize in while Jess will
stand out and add depth to the chorus.  Her voice is incredibly sexy.” 

I looked over at Lance
talking about Jess being sexy and got a stirring of jealousy but I could tell
by his face he was talking purely professionally.  He really was old for his
years this nephew of mine, as at his age I would have been lusting like a bitch
on heat to get hold of a girl that looked and sounded like that. 

I looked over at Josh and
Robbie to see what their take was on the demos and they pretty much echoed what
Lance said.  I was glad that we were all on the same page as it would certainly
make tomorrow easier.

“Hey Mack we were wondering
if we could rehearse in the studio today as we haven’t played for almost a
week,’ Josh asked.  I looked around at the other two and couldn’t help bursting
into laughter at their serious faces.

“You guys had enough holidays
time already?”

“Well last night while we
were out we got the start of a new song and we are dying to get into the studio
and play around with it,” said Robbie earnestly.

He was the youngest of the
three boys and had only just turned twenty and his ability to write songs
belied his years.  His lyrics had a depth and intensity of someone much older.

I hopped up and ruffled his
hair and told them that I would go make some phone calls and see what I could
do.  If I ever had kids I wanted them to turn out like these boys. 

After about ten minutes on
the phone I came back and gave them the address of the studio and said the
owner would meet them outside in an hour.  I didn’t offer to go with them as I
knew I would just be the third wheel.  When their creative juices started to
flow it was best to leave them to it.   Anyway I needed to turn on the computer
and catch up on the work I had been neglecting.  And sure enough there were
about forty messages in my inbox.

I grabbed a beer from the
minibar and turned my attention to work.

The traffic had been light on
the run down the motorway to Whangarei and I had made good time. 

During the drive I had taken
stock of the last twenty four hours and realized in my rush to get to Ems I
hadn’t said a real goodbye to Mack.  I knew it was just a quick holiday fling
but I would have liked to have said thanks.  I don’t know how the thank you would
have gone as I wasn’t too clued up on the etiquette of thanking men for great
sex.  But it was more than that.  I still couldn’t quite explain it but the
connection we had made had cleared a lot of the clutter from my head.  I felt
happier than I had in a long time.  So it would have been nice to say thanks.

It was probably for the best
that our time was cut short as I didn’t think I was cut out for casual sex.  I
could already feel the start of some sort of deeper connection and that just
wouldn’t do.  Cam had sent me to Matapouri to sort myself out, so to come back
with a whole new set of problems would be totally bad form!  

I turned into the hospital
car park and quickly parked the car before heading up to the maternity ward.  I
saw Dad in the waiting room and went over and gave him a hug and asked how Ems
was doing.
