The show was electrifying. I forgot what it felt like to be in that crowd, watching the man I'm in love with do what he loves to do and is so passionate about. He's this whole other person up there. His true, giddy, silly self.

His voice is perfect.

He's perfect.

All I can think of while I'm back stage waiting for them to be done with their final bow is how much I want to kiss him. But not here, in front of everyone. We aren't exclusive or anything like that. What we are feeling is between us right now, and I'm okay with that.

I can't keep my eyes off of him as he enters the room with his brothers, his hair sweaty and messed up, but a smile on his face like always.

Kevin greets Danielle and Nick and Joe are taking off their in ears and untangling the wires.

Joe spots me and his face lights up even more. He walks over and instantly gives me a hug. Even though he's sweaty, I can still smell his cologne and I could careless about the swear.

I just want to tear off all of his clothing, if I'm being honest.

"Did you enjoy the show?" He asks.

I nod, "it was amazing, like usual." I say, biting the inside of my cheek so hard I start to taste blood. I need to get him alone, and soon. My hormones are going through the roof.

His face changes, and it's almost as if he can tell what I am feeling.

He leans in, "I got us our own private room." He whispers in my ear, sending a chill down my spine.

"Can we go, like now?" I ask with a giggle.

He raises his eyebrows and nods, laughing too.

We say goodbye to the rest of the crew and get into the SUV waiting for us outside the back door of the building. He holds my hand as we drive to wherever he has rented for the night.

We follow a long narrow row beside the ocean and we pull into the one and only driveway.

"Wow, it's beautiful." I say as I step out of the car. The walkway is lit with tiki torches and I follow behind him up the stone pathway.

He unlocks it and guides me through the open area. I walks past the kitchen and to the back room which happens to be the bedroom, where sliding glass doors that go right out into the sand await me.

I stand in front of the glass, watching the moon lit waves crashing in onto shore.

"Wow." Is all I can say.

Joe comes up behind me, wrapping his arms around my waist and setting his chin on my shoulder. I lean back into him, and I feel his heartbeat which is already beating at high speed.

He kisses my neck gently and I turn around to face him. His eyes are soft and he's just staring at me. I run my hand down his cheek, staring back.

Our lips find each other, and I can't help but run my hands through his hair, pulling at it a little. He moans against my lips and it sends a rush of adrenaline through me.

To be the reason behind his moan...

Fuck.

"I want you." I say, pulling away to look at him.

"Are you sure?" He asks, studying me.

I nod anxiously and shove my hands under the front of his shirt. He grabs onto it, helping me take it off.

I've seen him shirtless before, but I would stop myself from looking because it didn't feel appropriate. This time I can't look away. I bend down to slowly plant kisses all over his toned torso.
