Family Ties

Chapter 13


Lizzie watched as the guys broke their 'band huddle' and went to grab beers, then scatter a bit around the fire. Her eyes, of course followed Rich who had chosen a spot where he could lean his back against a large rock a bit further from the fire than everyone else, but still not too far away. She figured he could still feel the warmth. She debated going over to him. Maybe he had chosen that spot cause he wanted some privacy. She watched for a few more minutes until he lifted his eyes and met hers. He smiled and beckoned her over.

He watched as she rose and walked the distance between then. He really should have just left her where she was. Her wind tousled hair was blowing all over the place and her hips were doing this natural sway that set his teeth on edge. She still wore that bright blue bikini that had been teasing him all day long only now she had a flowing short wrap around her waist. It only made her appear more sexy to him.

"Hey stranger..." she said as she sat down on his lap like she had a million times before.

Richie let out a breath quite fast and shifted his hips a bit thinking Oh Lord, She really shouldn't be sitting here--" hey little darlin' I missed ya." he smiled to cover his discomfort and against his better judgement let his hand rest lightly on her upper thigh.

Lizzie felt his touch on her thigh, he'd never before placed his hand quite so......she drew in a deep breath when she felt his thumb move gently back and forth on her skin. " You missed me?" she laughed a bit nervously " I've been right over there the whole time"

"Yeah--I know, I know-- but--" he let his hand rub softly and slowly over her smooth skin, each stroke going just a bit higher than the last." I just--like talking to you--your so much more--fun than--those guys--" he grinned a bit as he mentally scolded himelf for having the balls to touch her in such a way. But try as he might he couldn't stop, he didn't want to stop. He loved the feel of her skin against the palm of his hand. He felt himself getting hard and shifted again to ease the pressure.

Lizzie noticed him fidgeting and shifted her weight a bit.

"I'm sorry Rich are you uncomfortable??" want me to move?"

She shifted a bit more trying to ease the presure on his legs, it was an innocent move but damn near undid him. He grabbed her hips firmly and said in a voice she'd never heard before. " For the love of God Liz! Stop moving!"

Lizzie froze she first noticed the firm grip his hands had on her hips, then she noticed her ass was pressed back against what could only be.......

Oh God! he-- he has a--a--hard on 

Richie knew the moment she realized exactly what was wrong with him. Her body had gone rigid. Most likely in shock. Then to his utter astonishment, instead of getting up and running away as he expected, he felt her body relax and her ass, that ass that he had been dreaming about since he had first laid eyes on it earlier this afternoon pressed back even more firmly against his throbbing erection making him buck involuntarily just a bit and his grasp on her hips made his fingers bite into her delicate flesh for just a split second

Beth stretched a bit and yawned as she looked around for Lizzie. she didn't realize til just then that the long day was catching up with her. She found lizzie, across the way.... with Richie of course. she smiled. they looked so comfy she knew there was no way Lizzie would be ready to go back to the hotel yet.

Letting out a deep sigh, she spread out a blanket and started to lay down when a shadow fell upon her. she looked up to see Jon standing there smiling down at her.

"Tired Bethy ?" He asked

Beth yawned her answer causing Jon smiled again. Everything she did seemed so damn cute to him "Ok how's 'bout I walk you back. I'm a bit tired myself" he held out his hand to help her up.

"Sure" She chuckled " Best offer I had all day!" taking his hand and winced as she stood up . Her aching muscles screaming out in protest.

" Ok then lets head back "

Jon slipped his arm around her as they walked back in silence. Each step Beth took was a challenge , she was stiff and sore from the game and there was no way she would complain or Jon relentlessly tease her but Jon did notice though he was tempted say something he didn't .

They finally reached the hotel and once inside made their way to the elevator, where Jon pushed the button . The doors opened and they stepped inside. Beth fought to keep her eyes open as she leaned up against Jon .

Oh god, he smelled so good . She thought dreamly to herself

He pulled her a bit closer rubbing her back just a bit. That did it she was drifting further into dreamland when Jon announced "Bethy we're here " He said as the door opened.

She lifted her sleepy head from his shoulder as he walked her to her door.

"Thanks " She said sleepily and looked up at him. Big Mistake Beth ! as she gazed into his baby blues.

God I wish he would kiss me--just once. I want to taste him.

Jon looked down into her chocolate brown eyes and gently caressed her face. He had only meant to tell her goodnight but found himself locked in a trance.

He whispered "Sweet dreams Bethy " he then slowly leaned in toward her lips

He was mere millimeter away from pure heaven when out of nowhere they both heard "There you are Bethy! Tico was wondering where you were"

Jon pulled back and swore under his breath as he gave Alec a frustrated look
.
Beth also sighed in frustration "Yea I'm here tell my watchdog I went to take a bath and bed . its been a long day"

All the while neither Beth nor Jon broke eye contact.

Alec chuckled "Will do, Jon you crashing out early?"

Jon bite his lip hard to keep from scowling at Alec for interupting at the wrong time. "Yea man , See you in the Mornin' "

"Night, Guys " Alec said as he turned and walked away

Neither Jon or Beth had heard Alec or notice him leave.

"G'night Beth" He smiled his eyes saying, nothing will interupt us next time

"Night Jon . " she opened her door and shut it angrily , wanting to throw anything in sight at that moment at their bass player

Stupid fucking ass why that moment !!! She thought irritably as she went to her journal , sat down on her bed and started to write.
