Keep On Dreaming.

Love In A Fitting Room

I yawned and rolled over, on top of someone. Slowly, my eyes fluttered open, and I saw Steven grinning at me. 

"I love waking up with you on top of me." he smiled and kissed my nose.

"Well I love waking up on top of you." I giggled, and then sat up, so I was straddling him. He held my hands on top of his chest and smiled at me with his big beautiful smile, and his haunting brown eyes.

"You ready for tonight, Miss Rock Star?" His eyes gleamed, and he raised an eyebrow

"Oh my god!" I jumped off of him and out of bed, and sprinted into the bathroom. "Tonight's the night! Tonight's my final performance!" I called behind me. I turned the shower on, and stripped down. I quickly brushed my teeth while waiting for the water to heat up, and I eventually got in. I head the bathroom door open and close, and soon enough, Steven was in the shower with me. 

"Baby, calm down. You'll be fine." He smiled and kissed me on the forehead, while the water dripped down between us. 

"I know, I've been practicing all my songs for weeks, I just... I don't know. I'm just nervous." I paused, realizing the enormity of tonight. "Tonight's the last night of this life. When I wake up tomorrow, I'll be a star. I'll be like you... Only not as big." I chuckled. "I mean, whether I win Idol or not, I'll still have some record deal from somewhere, right? That's what you said a few weeks ago." 

"Baby, everyone want's you. I've gotten so many calls asking about you, and if I can set up an interview with you, and the producer of some bigshot recording company." He chuckled. 

We washed up, and got out of the shower. 

I changed into a pair of white shorts, and a layered a black tank with a lacey blue tank. I put on my favorite hippie sandals, and braided my hair. 

Steven got changed into a pair of jeans, and a white sheer button up, and as usual, it was buttoned half way down, revealing his chest. 

We went down into the kitchen, and made myself a cup of tea, and Steven a cup of coffee. 

"It's so weird to think that tonight's my last night in the mansion. I mean, I've been here for how many months now?" I sighed thinking about all the memories I've had here. 

"I know." He grinned "But guess what? You can finally come home now!" He chuckled while playing with my braid. 

"I know. I'm so excited!" I smiled and then kissed him. 

"Get a room!" Lauren and Scotty came into the kitchen just then, giggling like crazy. 

"Dude, You've spent more time here these past few months, than at your own house." Scotty chuckled. 

"I know." Steven grinned. 

"Hey.. You guys," Lauren began and then paused, thinking over her words.. "Do you guys wanna do one last double date, before this all ends, tonight?" 

Steven and I looked at each other and then back at Scotty and Lauren. 

"That sounds perfect." I smiled "What do you guys want to do?"

"Well... I've been saving up some money, and I know Scotty has too.... Umm.. Maybe we could go shopping? I've been here all this time, and still haven't shopped in L.A." She suggested

"Oh no...." I started, turning to look at Steven.

"Perfect" Steven grinned.

Lauren and Scotty just laughed. After they ate they went and got ready, and then we all hopped into my little Mini cooper. 

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"Jesus, Steven." I rolled my eyes. "You know, you don't have to buy something from every store we go into." I said, as we strolled out of one store, and into the next.

"Babe, you know I'm a big spender." He chuckled. 

"This is why I don't like going shopping with him..." I turned to Lauren and Scotty. "He spends about 10G's in a day. It's ridiculous."

"Baby, you know you love shopping with me." He smiled, as he whipped out a silver chain with a simple diamond hanging off the end of it. He placed the chain around my neck and fastened the clasp, then turned me around and kissed me. 

"I mean... It has it's perks." I blushed "But seriously, Steven. You know I hate when you spend money on me."

"I know." He grinned "Just go and try on this one outfit I picked out... If you like it, it's yours for the show tonight, if not, then I promise I won't buy you anything you don't ask me too.."

"Fine." I rolled my eyes and grabbed the fabric out of Stevens hands, and went into the fitting room. 

~~~~~~~~~~

I looked at myself in the mirror, and gasped. I was wearing a pair of black leather shorts, and a beautiful red sheer button up, with the sleeves cut off, and a white fitted blazer with studs on the shoulders. On my feet were these sexy, black, peep-toe ankle booties, with studs that matched the ones on my blazer. I took a breath and opened the curtain of the fitting room.

"Damn, Ms. Legs!" Lauren giggled "You look hot!"

"Seriously, Babe. You're sexy." Steven stood up and grabbed my waist and pulled me into him, kissing my nose. "Now there's just one thing I've got to check.." He said, as he was pushing me lightly back into the fitting room. 

"What's that?" I asked

"How easily it comes off." He grinned as he closed the curtain behind us. He pushed me up against a wall and started kissing me passionately.

After a minute we pulled back.

"Steven... I don't think we should do this right now. I mean, I really want to.. I mean I really want to, but we've got Scotty and Lauren here, and we've gotta get going, I mean we've gotta go get ready for the show tonight." I said, breathing heavily as Steven's hands began to move down from my waist, trying to remove my shorts. "Steven, I..." He hushed me with a kiss.

"Don't worry, baby." He smiled, and kissed me lightly "I understand. Can I atleast help you get this off, and get you back into your own clothes?" He grinned.

"Why of course," I smirked "You're such a gentleman."

He smiled his knee-buckling smile, and began to pull my shorts off, while staring directly into my eyes. It was so intimate, I felt like I was going to combust. Once my shorts were around my ankles, Steven kneeled down, still staring into my eyes, and unzipped each boot, helping me step out of the boots, as well as the shorts. He, then, stood up and began to unbutton each button on my blouse. He kissed my neck as he pulled the blazer down and off of my arms, and then did the same with my blouse. He grabbed my waist and brought me close to him, and I gasped at the touch. Almost as if I was a child again, slipped the layered tank top over my head and onto my torso. He kneeled down again, and helped me step into the white shorts I was wearing before, and then slipped on and zippered up each of my hippie sandals. When he stood back up, he cupped my face and kissed me.

"We should go pay for this." He whispered, staring into my eyes.

"We should." I said, gaping into his eyes for a few more moments before I broke the eye contact and picked up all the clothes and shoes I was buying. 

When we were finished paying, we all hopped back into my little mini cooper, and drove back to the mansion, so I could pick up my guitar, and then we drove off to the stadium where the show was, so we could get our hair and make up done, for the show.
