That was it. All she needed was to hear his voice, see him one more time and all bets were off.
They couldn't keep their hands off each other, quickly finding a closet that they could sneak off too.
"I missed you so much," Brian said in between kissing her deeply as if she was the air he breathed. His hands ran up and down her body, unbuttoning and unzipping everything she was wearing.
Maren moaned deeply. Brian was her drug and she was sober for over 3 months at this point. It was time to get her fix. She slowly slipped her panties down and raised her ass higher in the air as she bent over slowly.
"Fuck me Brian.." she begged breathlessly.."Maren, Maren," Joe shouted a little louder the second time waving his hand to get her attention. She shook her head slightly and focused her eyes back on the four jokers sitting across from her.
"Sorry.. yes I don't think that would be a problem. If you want to just keep the Meet n Greets to the first shows of the evening, that should make up for everyone," she smiled up at the guys while she typed a few notes on her tablet. Underneath the conference room table, Maren's knee kept shaking. It was one thing to think about Brian Quinn. It was another to actual be in his presence, and as much as she thought she was prepared, those big brown eyes still made her weak. Hearing him defend her against Kyle didn't help matters.
Everyone was quiet for a moment looking over some paperwork before Murr spoke up. "It's really great to have you back Maren. We missed you so much. What have you been up to the last 3 months? You look amazing?" he asked cheerfully and oblivious to the fact that no one really wanted to bring up the past.
Sal looked at him like he was stupid, and Joe nudged him under the table. Maren glanced over at Brian who was staring at her intently. She knew she would have to address the elephant in the room, so she took a deep breath and began.
"Listen guys. I'm sorry I left the way I did. But it was all too much. I felt I had let you down and your fans down, and didn't want to be a hinderance. Look at what Kyle said, I'm sure you've gotten dozens of comments like that over the last few months. I will never be able to thank you guys for what you've given me,. I'm happy to be back to help you through these make-up shows. I'll do whatever I can to help train a new tour manager also."
Murr's brow furrowed in confusion. He slightly shaked his head, "Well we don't have Kyle anymore so, why don't you think about staying on permanently. It's not the same without you."
Maren smiled sweetly at him and without hesitation responded, "Sorry Murr, my life is back in Florida now."
Brian had taken his eyes of Maren only to take in the other guys faces during her apology, but his face shot back over to her immediately when she said Her Life. The achy sadness that went away when he saw her face for the first time in over 100 days, crept back in. Her life wasn't in New York anymore, and he was no longer a part of it. "So, is that all? I have somewhere I've got to get too," Brian said as he stood and pointed towards the door.
The other guy looked at him and as Maren began to speak, their eyes darted back towards her, "We're all done. I'll get you guys itineraries as soon as I can." She smiled towards Brian and then averted her eyes towards the other guys.
Brian awkwardly made his way to the door, half wishing he could scoop her up in a passionate embrace, half realizing this tour was going to be hell for him. "Great. Maren, it's nice to see you. Guys, I'll be back soon."
Yet again, all eyes were on her as Brian walked out the door. Quickly she changed the subject, "All right boys, let's do this!" she said walking around to where each of the guys were now standing.
