Family Ties

Chapter 25


We got something to believe in
Even if we dont know where we stand
Only God would know the reasons
But I bet he must have had a plan
Cause you were born to be my baby
And baby, I was made to be your man 


Lizzie and Beth stood a few rows back in the crowd watching the show with satisfied expressions. Both girls were having the time of thier lives so far this summer. For Beth, now that her and Jon were an item. Life couldn't be better. The only dark cloud on her horizon was the thought of having to go back to finish her last semester of school. Just one more semester that was it. She had 6 weeks before she had to leave so for now she would enjoy each every day to the fullest.

Lizzie watched Richie singing along with Jon and knew the moment he'd spotted her. His eyes took on a softer glow and his lips curled into a lazy half grin as he sang the words

you were born to be my baby
And baby, I was made to be your man 

She smiled at him, everyone else fading away until there was no one but her and him in the arena. It was always like that anymore. Lizzie just seemed to float thru her days, Beth stood by her side and watched the interaction between Richie and Liz. She saw the complete devotion in Lizzies face and watched as Richies eyes softened and he smiled shooting Liz a knowing look and she gasped.

She wasn’t sure what she was seeing, maybe she was imagining it . After all she was so happy herself that she was seeing life through rose colored glasses. Shaking off the feeling, and returned her gaze back to Jon. She smiled to herself yes he was her’s and though they had planned on going slow, the emotions the both of them were feeling was far from slow. Without a doubt she loved him more than life itself.

Jon's eyes made contact with hers as he started into another song.

I don't need no license
To sign on no line
And I don't need no preacher
To tell me you're mine
I don't need no diamonds
I don't need no new bride
I just need you, baby
To look me in the eye 


His gaze never left her face as he sang each word meaning everything he felt in his heart . She knew Tico wasn’t happy but he couldn’t deny the love that was shining through. How Jon treated her and how Bethy responded. He didn’t approve only because this lifestyle was hard , girls everywhere and to be honest its hard to be faithful he dont want to see her hurt but, How can he stop it , he couldn’t she was a grown woman now. Jon really seemed to love her .

I know they have a hand time
And your Daddy don't approve
But I don't need your Daddy
Telling us what we should do

He only broke contact when he had to work the crowd and appease the females in the front row but his heart and soul would now only belong to one .

The show ended with both Lizzie and Beth caught up in the orgasmic feel that only a Bon Jovi show could bring. Neither girl spoke much as they made their way through the crowd to the backstage area , the wicked glares they were receiving were lost on the girls ,as their minds were on the two men getting ready to leave the stage.

Lizzie and Beth made their way to the dressing room , they knew the ritual the guys would come in shower and change then off to what they jokingly called the viper room. Beth and Lizzie called it that simply because the girls in that room were vipers , trying anything and everything to get down the band’s pants for one night to say they fucked someone in the band. Only to move on to another member at the very next show or another band.

Lizzie and Beth hadn’t gone in after the first night they arrived for the summer. The girls in that room were vicious as pangs of jealously creeped through both Lizzie and Beth from that moment they decided not to go . They had full trust in their men so no need of being in there as to make a point they belonged to them.

Both Girls settled in on the couch to wait for total chaos to begin. And it didn’t take long for it to begin, Rich hitting the doors first bouncing around like a little kid that just received a new toy.

Spotting his girl on the couch he couldn’t do what he wanted to do but he could get a way with a hug and kiss on the cheek though she knew she would get more later. They had a few days off and Dave was heading out almost immediately after the show. So finally the two lovebirds could get some much needed alone time. It was hard sneaking and pretending it wasn’t more than a buddy relationship.

Rich came over hugged her and a quick peck “Have to run Lizzie girl, the vipers await “ he winked

Lizzie laughed, but it bugged her a bit she couldn’t make known he was her’s and only hers yet, but someday they could. And then the whole world would know about their love. But until then, she sighed to herself as she smiled at her goofy Richie .. it had to be a secret. 

“Don’t have too much fun ya hear” Lizzie teased. But her undertone also let him know she was serious at the same time.

“Yes ma’am! “ He saluted her and off he bounced to the shower.

Next came in Alec , Tic and Dave . Jon was always last that never changed he always needed to do a bit of business more like either praise his crew or have a talking to with them.

Alec had plans on meeting a hot blonde, redhead, or brunette whomever came up to him first .

Tic like Dave was taking off for a few days with Lisa, David with April. Sometimes it was good to get away some alone time from the craziness.

Off they went to shower, not before Dave giving Lizzie a 'behave yourself while he was gone' talk. Causing Lizzie to roll her eyes but agreeing to anyway.

Jon walked in all sweaty , still hyped a bit but coming down like he was on a high . He made a beeline to Beth plopping down for a moment laying a big one on her then laying his head down in her lap. Stroking his hair she attentively listen to his rambles of the show. Til it was time for him to get up and shower and head for those girls …

Beth trying as she could; not to be jealous she knew where his heart belonged. But those girls were vicious not caring , they could make the saintliest men give in. It wasn’t Jon she didn’t trust it was those girls. It basically boiled down to her insecurities that resurfaced every now and again.

Jon knew this so he tried to reassure her as best he could it was really the only obstacle in their near perfect relationship.

Lizzie watched them interact and sighed it was so unfair , she was really happy for Beth and Jon but wished that was her and Richie able to be free with their love. Someday they will.

All the guys clean and ready for the mob slowly made their way out the door. Not before Richie winked and shot Lizzie the look that only two lovers know and understand.

Jon stopped by Beth and kissed her a bit while whispering sweet nothings in her ear letting her know just what she needed to be ready for later.. he then backed off and raised his eyebrows causing Beth to laugh.

“See ya in a bit baby, Love ya” Kissing her again and walked out the door.

Leaving both girls to drift away into their own thoughts while they waited for their men.
