Love Bites

Chapter 4 - Heartbreaker

- I would like to be a photographer just to have an opportunity to take pictures of you naked, you knew that?

Elle threw her head back, run her fingers through her hair and laughed. Axl watched her awestruck and mesmerized. She was all things new to him, and he couldn't get enough of her. He caught every word or sound she uttered, he looked at her all the time, and every single of her moves and gestures hypnotized him.

- What stops you from doing it? - she asked flirtatiously, rolling over to her stomach.

- M-m...I am actually a successful musician.

- Successful? Perhaps...

Axl suddenly experienced a weird twinge of annoyance. Is she playing with him? He didn't like to be fooled, but this girl has totally smitten him.

- Come on, woman, we are making an album with Geffen!

- Geffen? Is it the one that makes shoots for Vogue?

- No, he...Okay, doesn't matter!

Axl let Elle make him shut up with a passionate kiss. Her soft lips weren't blemished with cheap lipstick, and now they were slightly swollen from hours of kissing him, and it just made him feel so satisfied. His hand slipped down the lovely curve of her behind and dug his nails into her smooth skin. Elle didn't moan or shriek but just giggled softy.

- You know I am ticklish!

Axl promised to himself he wouldn't make love to her again, but it looked like he was a little shy of breaking his word. Elle wasn't perfect from head to toes, she didn't even fit the classical beauty standards. She was just so goddamn irresistible with her freckles, little nose and tooth gap that he could hardly control himself around her.

Elle knew Axl was hooked; it was always so easy for her to tell. She knew he wasn't the first as well as he wasn't the last. However, there was something about him that made her enjoy his company a little more than another guys'. His self-confidence, openness and emotionality made him a source of great fun, and she just enjoyed chatting him up, teasing and having a laugh with him.

- Nuh, Mr Rose, I though you'd tear me into pieces!

Elle snickered and tried to lie back on the pillows but Axl didn't let her out of his arms.

- I would if I wanted to. I just want to bed you a few more times.

That was it. The certain way to tell a guy was going to call her; a sign of true interest. Elle didn't expect anything more from him on the fourth time of seeing, it was enough for her to know it's time to leave.

- Man, you've had enough! I need to the bathroom!

Elle escaped from his embrace and quickly got up. Having thrown on a loose T-shirt of his she picked from the floor, she left the room with that perpetual playful smile on her lips.

- Fuck, what a woman in the world!

Axl said that to himself under his breath and reached for a pack of cigarettes. He knew he had to be up in the studio today, but nothing worth playing or discussing came to his mind. He spent a couple of minutes trying to recreate the melody of the music peace that popped into his head yesterday, but he couldn't concentrate.

Elle walked out of the bathroom doors with a towel wound around her body only to bump into a tall guy in a Sex Pistols tee.

- Damn!

- Crap, I am sorry! - he blurted sorrily and patted her shoulder. The girl showed him the middle finger and marched to the kitchen without a word.
