“So,I got a call from someone today,” Stacey smiles over the video chat and flops down on the bed in her tour bus.

She’s been back on the road doing some smaller state fairs and stuff for the last few weeks. All while I’ve been mostly tied down to my desk backhome.Every night after she comes off stage, she calls and we talk, usually until one of us falls asleep.

“Oh?” I lean back in my office chair and kick my feet up. Just about everyone has gone home for the day but I’m still in my office sorting through paperwork and working on payroll. Me. Doing payroll. Who would have ever thought?

I’ll be so fucking glad when this week is over and I can fly out to spend the weekend with her.

It’s only been a few weeks since everything happened and we officially got together but I fucking miss her.

We’ve been keeping things pretty quiet too which means that we’re not making a lot of public appearances together. Jane and Stacey both thought it was for the best, to protect Stacey’s image and let the public think she’s taking the time to grieve. I don’t love having to hide, but it is nice to still live a little bit of a normal life at the moment. In the end, I’ll do whatever it takes to be with her.

“Yeah. Queen Charlotte…you know…the literalQUEENof Herefith calledme!”

I can’t help but smile at her excitement. “Did she now?”

“Yes! She was calling to invite me to Princess Willow’s 21st Birthday Party. She asked if I’d be willing to perform just one song for the Princess and then spend the rest of the weekend as their guest. At the castle!”

“Wow,” I smile. “That’s pretty exciting.”

“I know! It’s six months from now but I think we could make it work. I mean, that’s if you’d want to go with me. You would want to go with me, wouldn’t you? She did say I could bring a plus one and any members of my security team that I normally travel with.”

“Your security team, hm,” I raise a brow.

Stacey giggles and rolls her eyes. “You’d be my plus one, goof.”

“Oh, I would?” I reply with a knowing smirk.

“I think that’s plenty of time for me to grieve over an asshole that I never loved in the first place, don’t you think? What better way to make our public debut.”

“Hm. I’ll have to take a look at my schedule. There’s a huge security conference in Vegas coming up, it might be the same weekend.”

Stacey’s face grows serious until I cave and crack a smile.

“Jerk.”

“I love you,” I remind her. “And I wouldn’t miss traveling to Herefirth with you for anything.”

“Yay! Ah. I’m so excited,” she rolls over on her back and sits back against the headboard. “You’re still coming out to Arizona this weekend, right?”

“Wild horses couldn’t keep me away, babe.”

“Good, because I miss you,” she sighs.

“Stace…” I growl in warning.

“What?” her voice shakes and I know damn right well what she’s doing.

I jump up from my chair to shut and lock the door. There may only be two or three guys still hanging around but I don’t need an audience.

“Where’s your hand at Stacey?”

“Nowhere,” she squeaks and arches her back.

“Liar,” I hiss, unhook my belt and unfasten my pants. No fucking way she’s getting off without me. “Tell me what you’re doing.”

“Mmm. It feels so good,” she purrs. “I wish it was your fingers in my pussy though.”

“Fuck.” I reach in my boxers and squeeze my dick as precum drips from the slit. “Stacey.”
