The Sweetest Drug (On Hold..... maybe)

Page 14

They arrive at the Marina just in time to watch the sun set. They're having dinner aboard the Marianna a beautiful dinning boat with a semi-casual atmosphere docked just north of Malibu. The Marianna is docked in its own private man made lagoon on the California shore the small dock that leads to her is lit with fire light. The soothing sounds of trickling water come from an elaborate man made stream/waterfall that align the staircase and dock that leads to her main entrance. Doorman:"Good evening, welcome aboard the Marianna, enjoy you're stay" J:"Thank you" to Nina "After you darling". Once inside they ascend the wide staircase to the main dinning room, Greeter:"Good evening Sir, Miss, table for two" J:"Actually we're meeting my brother, Shannon Leto" G:"Oh yes, he's been expecting you, Luke can you please show Mr. Leto and his companion to their table" L:"Right this way Mr. Leto follow me" Shannon sees Jared coming over and stands up S:"It's about time you two, I was beginning to think you were standing me up" J:"Never" S:"Nina you look ravashing" he kisses her cheek N:"Thank you darling, don't you look dapper tonight" S:"Thank you sweetheart, flattery will get you everywhere." J:"Sorry we're late man, we must've lost track of time" Shannon thinks to himself knowing these two..... S:"Mmmhmm sure ..... " They both blush "Jared you remember Julia" J:"Julia you look exquisite" Julia:"Thank you Jared you're looking handsome as usual" Jared:"Why thank you but I wouldn't say such things around me, I might just take you seriously and steal you from my brother" Julia blushes S:"I don't think so little brother, I intended to keep this one all to myself" the girls look at each other in sweet surprise N:"Nor do I..... Julia, you're Shannon's Girlfriend?" Julia:"Oh my God isn't this a nice surprise" the girls hug and kiss S:"Wait, you two know each other?" Julia:"Yes Darling we actually met on set today" J:"Julia's your twin" N:"Or I'm hers I'm not sure which" Jared:"Small world"

Small world indeed, how sweet coincidence can be. Two women meet earlier in the day only find each other again at dinner meeting each other's boyfriends who just happened to be brothers. Julia is not the kind of woman they are used to seeing Shannon with, he usually has some air headed model, pretentious bitch, or dumb blonde heiress hanging on his every word and salivating over his crotch. Julia is different, she is a classic beauty and like Nina a hard working no nonsense girl. Nina finds her sweet and refreshing it's nice to see him with a woman of substance for a change. Jared is also happy for his brother, he was worried about her at first, she so different from the shallow women he usually takes to bed, Julia is unlike the others, she's classy, elegant, refined not like the bitches in heat that usually flock to him. Truth be told substance didn't matter before, women were their guilty pleasure it's not like they were planning on a long term relationship let alone marriage but Nina and Julia changed all that. For the first time they want more, for the first it's their hearts calling the shots. He really hopes he doesn't mess things up with her he'd really like her to stay around for a while. Truth be told they do look good together. They way he looks at her makes her cheeks color or maybe it's the way he's caressing her thigh under the table, he knows that look and feel all to well. It's the same look Nina gets when his hands caress her skin.

After dinner they go for a stroll on deck, both couples arm and arm, the sun making its final descent into the western horizon. Julia:"So how long have you and Jared been together?" N:"Eight months and so far they've been the happiest of my life" Jared kisses her lips Jared:"Mine too" N:"You two are going on four months right?" Julia:"Yes we are and I couldn't be happier" S:"Neither could I" He kisses Julia and lingers on her lips. Nina:"Are we that bad love?" J:"We're worse, much worse" he takes her lips again caressing her neck and chest with the back of his hand making her moan into his lips. S:"Can we get you two anything, an ice bucket shower, a room perhaps" Nina blushes and buries her face in Jared's chest, Mmmm he smells like heaven. Julia can't help but giggle she knows all to well the feeling of pure intoxication a Leto can provoke, one touch of Shannon's hands his lips could set her soul on fire. Even now seeing him in the moonlight made her breathe catch, her pulse quicken, she wanted him. J:"Sorry guys, I just can't help myself around her" S:"Yeah, We've noticed" J:"Like you can do any better around Julia" She kisses the tattoo behind his ear he breathes deep and lets out a soft moan. His hand goes into her hair and he pulls her closer. Jared:"Uh huh! Now who needs an ice bucket shower?" This time it's Julia's turn to blush she lays her head on Shannon's chest and giggles, Nina smiles at her sweetly. N:"We're hopeless aren't we?" Julia:"Completely" Shannon kisses Julia's temple and snickers Jared:"What is it?" S:"Nothing" Jared:"Say it" S:"Just thinking........ if anyone would've told me a year ago that we'd fall in love with the two most beautiful women in the world, I'd said they were certifiably insane" Julia:"And just what is that supposed to mean?" S:"Nothing darling I'm just ...... putting my foot in my mouth and looking ridiculously stupid" N:"Or incredibly guilty. What do you mean dear Shannon" Jared:"He simply means love that we'd thought we'd given upon on finding love till we met you" he caresses her cheek and she looks at him quizzically N:"Hmmm I don't know, what do you think Julia?" She looks at Shannon and studies his beautiful hazel eyes then back at Nina and with a subtle wink Julia:"Hmmm perhaps if they were to use their powers of persuasion we might be so inclined as to believe them" the boys give each other a sly grin as if to say they don't know us very we'll do they?

Jared kisses Nina's lips then makes his way down her neck Shannon does the same with Julia, they decided to have fun with the boys and pretend not to be impressed the boys wink at each other and up their game and let their hands and their lips do the talking they kiss nibble and fondle till the girls cave in Julia:"Mmmm ...... Ok.... You win" she tries to catch her breath as Nina does the same N:"For now" S:"You were saying my love" Julia and Nina are blushing and giggling these two definitely know how to get their way. They continue their walk on deck enjoying the warm evening breeze. They stumble upon the Colonnade Deck it's actually an open dance bar complete with a band. The boys faces light up like two kids in a candy store Jared:"No way" S:"Is that? They look at each other then back at the stage Both:"TOMO!!!!!" The girls looked at each other perplexed Both:"Huh???" S:"Tomo is our best friend we used to play together on the boardwalk in Venice" N:"You used to play on the board walk?" Jared:"Yeah baby we grew up there we're total art junkies" S:"Come on let's go say hi" they head to the stage.

A handsome young man with soft brown eyes and dark brown hair is playing the guitar, he's completely lost in the music he hasn't even noticed the boys who are now standing directly in front of him. Jared:"You know my gramma makes better music with her washboard. T:"Really? We'll maybe you should have her teach you how to play" they all laugh, Tomo turns to the band T:"Take 15 guys" he jumps off the stage and hugs Jared first T:"Hey, how you been man" Jared:"Good, really good. I want you to meet some one, this is my girlfriend, Nina" T:"Pleasure meeting you pretty lady" Nina can't help but giggle N:"Pleasure meeting you" he hugs Shannon next S:"How long has it been man" T:"Too long" he notices Julia T:"She can't possibly be yours..." to Julia "...Seriously what do you see in this idiot, I'm his much more attractive and sexier friend Tomo" he takes her hand to his lips, she can't help but giggle "I'm Julia it's a pleasure to meet you" Good looks, charm and a sense of humor, they love him already. Jared:"You'll have to excuse his warped sense of humor" T:"Hey who you calling warped?" S:"So how long have you been playing the Marianna?" T:"I cook actually, the boss lets me play on my days off and after hours. Jared:" That's great!" T:"What about you IT boy, can you still carry a tune in a bucket?" J:"Please.... Buckets are for amateurs" to Shannon T:"Can you still beat the shit out of the drums" S:"Ha ha I see you're still trying to be a comedian." To the girls T:"You mind if I borrow the guys for bit?" Julia:"No not at all" N:"Go right ahead, have fun" T:"Thank you ladies"

The boys take the stage and the girls are in awe. Nina knew they enjoyed making music Julia had seen them play before but not like this. Jared's voice is melodic beautiful hypnotic his voice alone makes Nina's heart race her breathe catch. Shannon plays the drums with such precision it's intoxicating, he breaks into a light sweat and Julia's breathe hitches it takes every ounce of herself restraint to keep her composure. They are so amazing to watch people who were previously sitting are now front and center clinging to every word every note the girls whisper giggle and point to their favorite band member after a few songs Tomo thanks the crowd for not booing them off stage. As they make their way down a couple of girls in their early twenties flock to Jared and Shannon, Girl:"Hey boys can my friend and I buy you a couple of drinks" Jared:"That's awfully nice of you but I don't think our girlfriends would approve" S:"Sorry ladies" She looks at him in disbelief and tries again running her bony fingers up and down his chest S:"ladies please, we're flattered but like my brother said ...." he looks at Nina and Julia " ....our girlfriends wouldn't approve" they roll their eyes and walk away. S:Oh man that was amazing!" Julia arches her eyebrow really S:"I meant the performance baby" Julia:"Uh huh!" S:"You know I only have eyes for you" he nibbles on her neck making her moan in delight. Nina decides to have a little fun with Jared and arches her eyebrow at him as well J:"Not you too" she mimics the girl N:"Hey boys can my friend and I buy you a couple of drinks? How old are they twelve?" J:"Come on baby don't tell me you're jealous?" He pulls her close and savors her lips his hand caresses her neck and cleavage while he whispers in her ear sending sweet shivers down below. "You know you're my sweetest drug" T:"I hate to break up this love fest but ......." Jared and Shannon look at each other then at Tomo, Both:"Aaaah are you jealous????" they go to him and lock him in a tight bear hug Tomo:"Really.... Ok......guys..... Choking not breathing" poor thing the girls couldn't help but giggle N:"Baby, I think he's starting to turn blue S:"Ah we're just showing him how much we love him" Julia:"Darling be nice" S:"We are being nice sweetness" the girls look at each other and giggle. They eventually release Tomo and spend the rest of the night catching up over drinks. Tonight they saw a whole other side of Jared and Shannon and they have to admit it was a real turn on, one things for sure neither one is gonna get much sleep tonight.
