Friends With Benefits (Danny O'Donoghue)

Chapter 11

Danny

I never thought I would miss anyone so badly. But I missed Nessa so badly. I phoned her one more time after the Skype call from over a month ago.

During the soundcheck from this afternoon we had a lot of work left to do. Fuck work. I wanted to call her again.

'Were are you going?', Glen asked. 'I'm calling her', I said. 'Say hello from me to her, tell her we miss her', Glen said.

'Hey girl, I know I've been non reacheble for a while. But I miss you', I said. 'Hey, I miss you too', Nessa said. 'Babe were are you now?', I asked. 'Well not at home, I'm looking for a job, and I read the interview by the way, some people talk to me on the street, it's really weird', Nessa said. 'Are you okay with it?', I asked. 'Dan, I am more then okay with it, I told you I am not the difficult girlfriend that pull you back from your dream life', Nessa said. 'I know that dear, that is one of the reasons I love you', I said. 'I know that... and I love you too, take a good look Dan, behind you I mean', Nessa said.

Her voice was way too close to only be on the phone. I turned around and there she was with Andi. 'I can't believe it, you surprise me every time baby', I said and I hugged her like I never wanted to let go. I pressed my lips upon me. 'Wow, I can't believe you travelled all the way here', I said. I lifted her up and sway her around the room. Then I hugged Andi. 'Can't believe you are here too sis, how did you manage to get more free time?', I asked. 'Simply beeing unemployeed is a blessing sometimes', Andi said hugging me back. 'But hey, I leave you guys alone, I go look for Glen', Andi said. 'Good luck', I said. Andi rolled with her eyes.

'Now that you have me here, what do you want to do with me?', Nessa asked smiling at me. She pressed a kiss on my cheek. 'I can show you the tourbus?', I asked. 'Yes please show me', Nessa said. 'Fishty are we', I said with a smile. 'No... but I can be', Nessa teased. I grabbed her hand and dragged her with me. 'Wow, small... you really have to squeeze your way in right?', Nessa asked. 'Well, it's not exactly The Ritz, but we manage', I said with a smile. 'Ooh which bunk bed is from you', Nessa asked. 'The one on top of the one from Glen', I said pointing at my bed.

Nessa climbed on the bed and winked at me teasing me. 'What', I said looking at her. 'Are you coming or what?', she said. 'Nah, I shouldn't', I said teasing back. She removed her top and pulled me up the bunkbed. 'Ass', Nessa said kissing me and she unbuckled my belt and removed my trousers. 'Naughty girl', I laughed. She giggled. 'I just missed you baby', she said. 'You travelled so far to see me, I missed you too', I said hugging her and stroking her body. Beautiful as she is, my girl. We were just laying naked giggeling together when the door from the bus opened and Andi and Glen came in. Obviously with the same idea we had. 'Get lost', Nessa giggled and she threw a pillow at Glens head. 'Ooow this spot has been taken baby', Glen said to Andi. So they did have a thing for each other. They left giggeling about us, but I couldn't care less. All I wanted to do was kiss my girlfriend.

We came out of the bus after a few hours. I kissed her many times. 'Wow, baby that was amazing, I wish you could stay here forever, do you already have a job?', I asked. 'No, I tried with Sony and Mojo concerts, but they didn't replied. It's been a few days ago, so I don't have much hope', Nessa said sad. 'Come and work for us... I can't believe I haven't thought about this sooner, but I can't miss you so long as I miss you now, I've been away for a month and I miss you like crazy', I said. 'I miss you too, and I would love to work with you, make photo's from you, Mark and Glen for the tour album', I said. 'Come on, I ask the others if they find it a good idea, maybe Andi can join so you have some female company, you guys can work together', I said. 'Glen would like that too, he has some company as well', I said . 'Mark and Rina are meeting in Sydney as well. He hates beeing away from her and the kids', I said. 'I can't imagine how it would be for me, but I would love to be a part of your tour life if you want, but I don't want it to destroy us either, if one of us needs space, we have to give it to each other', Nessa said. 'i have to agree with you on that. I don't want to lose you, you are the best thing that ever happened to me', I said. Smiling at me she gave me a kiss. 'You are the one babe, the one I want to spend the rest of my life with, that is how I feel now', I said. I saw her smiling at me. She curled her lips around mind and I felt her tongue exploring my mouth and I did the same with mine with her. 'I think you are the one for me too baby, but let's take things slow', Nessa said and she went trough my hair. I laughed. I knew she loved to play with my hair. I loved it when she did. She is the only one that is allowed to touch my hair.

We met up with Mark, Glen and Andi. 'Done already', Mark teased. 'Mark... don't', Nessa warned. I laughed. 'Exporing the tourbus aren't we', Glen said with a laugh.

'So... I wanted to ask you guys if you think this is a good idea, but I want to be with her every day, this touring makes it impossible, so because both Andi and Nessa are photographers for living, I had the idea to make them our photographers, make them a member from our PR team', I said. 'Not a bad idea', Mark said slowly. 'Nope, not at all, means I get to be with my girl', Glen said putting an arm around Andi who smiled. 'That is what I thought too, the girls can work together and, how about it guys?', I asked. 'I think it's a great idea, we have to get in touch with our agent though', Mark said. 'Yeah... we need to do that, Glen, why don't you do that I can be very unpatient with him, even though he is a great guy, just sometimes', I said. 'Sure, I give him a ring', Glen said.

We were drinking a few cocktails and were heading to our hotel, we didn't slept in our tour bus if we didn't have to. 'I can't find my damn room, what's the number again?', I asked laughing trying to find my card key. 'It's on the back of your phone idiot', Nessa said laughing. 'How do you know?', I asked surprised. 'I am a fan remember, when you first met me, I am a fan, I've seen you on the Graham Norton show, when Mark said it was 248 and you said 'shut up', I said. 'Yeah Mark, he spoiled our number, I had to shut him up before he spoiled our tour bus sign or something, before we know it we have a whole fanbase coming after us', I said. Nessa giggled and kissed me. I knew now that I had to hold on to this girl. I don't want to let her go ever. I never want to do that. Because I love her. And she loves me. She confirmed that when she kissed me, every time she confirmes it when she kissed me or looks at me. Her beautiful face staring at me with so much love. I have no choice but to give in. Fall for her. And my heart confirmes it too. Without her I am nothing...
