Ryan looked down at how low she was on his thigh and growled. “Funny.”
Her almost smile went even wider. “Truth hurts.”
He leaned down. “Oh, let’s not go there. I’m still wearing your scent on my dick. You like mine well enough.”
She lifted her chin and swallowed hard, but didn’t spare him a look. “Is there a reason you’re up here bugging me?”
“Just thought you might need a drink.” He tapped the soda against her shoulder.
She took it and dropped it into her cup holder. “Thanks.”
“Coming in to listen tonight?”
“Maybe.”
“I think you should.” He gripped the top of her seat. “I’d really like it if you did.”
She glanced up at him briefly before focusing on the road again. He wasn’t sure what she saw, but some of the tension eased out of her shoulders. “All right.”
He didn’t know why it meant so much to him, but he relaxed as well. “Good.” He started to duck through her curtain.
“Ry?”
He turned back to her.
“This is new for me. In a lot of ways.”
“Me too, Colorado.” He flicked her ponytail, giving it a little extra tug. Just a little reminder that they were good together in so many ways.
He moved into the main living area and caught a speculative look from Elle. He definite
ly didn’t want to get into anything with her. Especially since she and Denver had been all up in each other’s business last night.
“Ten-minute warning, kids.” Denver’s voice came through the speakers from her front microphone.
He slipped into the bathroom before anyone else could and took care of business before he washed up a little. He smelled like sex and honey, but he wasn’t kidding. He was going to wear her scent on him tonight.
Even if he had a perpetual semi from the memories of her during that fucking movie. Strung out and so hot for him. Christ, it would be a damn long time before he could walk into a theater without thinking of her.
The door shook from a fist. “Other people have to piss, douchebag.”
He opened the door to Mal’s brooding face. “All yours, asshole.”
Mal moved to the side as Ryan came out. He paused before he shut the door. “Sure you know what you’re doing?”
His eyebrows shot up. “You too?”
Mal shrugged. “I like Denver. Don’t fuck her up.” And he shut the door.
Ryan sighed. “Secret, my ass.”
The bus was a flurry of activity as people packed up their bags for the day. There was no overnight in a swanky hotel tonight. They were off to Chicago after tonight’s set for a few shows before Vegas.
Ryan scrubbed his palm down his thigh. He had to admit, he was getting a little nervy about Vegas. They were really starting to get some momentum with this album. They were making a run on the awards circuit for Best New Artist. They’d taken the Spectrum Awards, but lost The Chart Toppers’ Award over the spring. If they took the Alternative, Rock, & Crossover Award, then they’d be on top again.
Damn, it felt good to be making their way toward something bigger and better.
The bus went over a huge bump and Ryan slapped his hand onto the bunk frame. Guess they’d reached the campus.
