Josh stood on the stage behind a curtain and watched as the crowd gathered. He sighed, made a face and looked at me.
“Gawd.” He said. I smiled at him as I chatted with the stage manager. He looked fantastic in Goth garb. His dark, curly hair went well with the whole look. I watched as he scanned the audience. Quite a different crowd tonight then he was used to seeing at concerts. I stifled a giggle. He was in for a treat! I was proud to be able to be the one to give it to him.
“Okay, HIM’s going to open tonight followed by Sevendust.” I nodded. “Then we’re going to have Dark Funeral and Opeth. The ending is going to be Evanescence and System.” Josh’s head snapped around and he smiled at me. I smiled back at him and nodded. He blew me a kiss then wiped the black lipstick that smudged on the palm of his hand on his pants. I snickered. “You’re going to come out between each band to introduce the next.” I nodded again. Did this guy think I was born yesterday and had never done this before. I wanted to smack him senseless. Taking the set lists from him I grabbed Josh by the hand and led him to the back where several members of each band were waiting. Josh recognized Serj the singer from one of his favorite bands, SOAD. I dragged him over and introduced them. Serj smiled and pumped Josh’s hand then clutched it and pulled him to his chest for a friendly hug.
“I know who you are.” Serj said to Josh. Josh beamed proudly. “My wife listens to you.” I hugged Josh.
“That’s great!” Josh said. “I listen to you guys all the time. And your drummer is fantastic.” Serj snapped a pair of black leather wrist bands.
“He’s good, I agree.”
“Hey!” I said, coming up with a fabulous idea. “Josh, you know their songs right?” He nodded quickly and smiled, his white teeth again standing out against his black lips. “Serj, why don’t you let Josh play on one of your songs, drums or sing with you or something?” I felt Josh’s arm tighten around me. I wasn’t sure if it was a good sign or a bad one. I guessed I would find out.
“That’s an excellent idea!” Serj said. “You up for it?” He poked Josh in the chest with the tip of his finger. Josh nodded quickly.
“Yeah!” Serj glanced around for John the drummer. He found him drinking a beer and talking to a photographer. Serj stuck two fingers in his mouth and blew off a whistle that was so shrill it nearly punctured my ear drums. John’s head perked up and he sauntered over. Serj slid his arm around Josh’s shoulder and pulled him away from me. He then took my gloved hand into his and kissed it. “Listen, beautiful, I’m going to borrow your man for a bit so we can talk about this. That was an excellent idea you came up with. Don’t wander too far, eh?” I laughed and watched as Josh was pulled into a huddle by John and Serj. They suddenly disappeared. I wandered around meeting people I hadn’t seen in a bit then made my way back to the stage area where Josh was sitting at HIM’s drum set. John was giving him pointers and the three of them were deciding which songs to play together. I didn’t want to intrude but I did want to hear so that I could talk about it Monday on the air. They were about to make musical history here and I was proud to be there to see it. Josh and John played the drums together and decided that Josh would play them through the song Lonely Day, then it was Serj’s turn. I followed them as they made their way to the dressing room that was reserved for System. Serj held the door open for first Josh then me to come in and turned and locked it behind us.
“You’re going to need to warm up before singing.” He said to Josh. Josh nodded. I sat at the back of the room while the two of them did their thing then I checked my watch and jumped up. It was nearly time for me to go on. I waved to Josh who barely noticed I was leaving and snuck out the door. Being careful not to run into anyone tonight and knock myself unconscious I headed for the stage area quickly. As I approached I noticed the band members from HIM gearing up to go on. The crowd out in the venue were working themselves up to a frenzy. I guzzled down a bottle of water then reapplied my lipstick. I checked my make-up and then went back to the stage. A stage hand gave me a microphone that had been tested for sound not too long ago. Suddenly the lights went down, I felt the nerves in my whole body tingle with excitement. I glanced around for Josh and didn’t see him, it was slightly disappointing but knowing where he was and what he was doing I was thrilled for him. I was introduced and ran out onto the stage. I screamed as loud as I could at the crowd and they screamed back.
“Are you ready to go insane tonight?” I hollered. The noise level raised a decibel or two. “We have got a crazy show for you tonight. Several rawkin’ bands are here including … Evanescence and System of a Down!” The crowd screamed. I laughed. “We’ll have a few surprises for you and before that, I’m pleased to introduce a fantastic band from Finland – everyone welcome HIM!!!” I waved my arm and backed off the stage as the band came on.
The show went on and I didn’t see hide nor hair of Josh until the band Opeth was on. He snuck up behind me, slipped his arms around my waist, and pulled me into him. Surprised, and not knowing who it was I turned and tried to look. He chomped down on my shoulder and I giggled.
“You scared the fuck outta me.” I sighed. He growled into my neck.
“I wanna fuck the fuck outta you.” I felt myself flush with heat and turned around to face him. The lipstick had been wiped off but his eyes were still darkly accentuated by eyeliner and he looked at me lustfully. I pulled his head down to mine and sucked at his mouth leaving black all around on his face. His hands slid down to my skirt, I could tell he wanted more. He grunted softly as we kissed and I slid my hands up the back of his shirt. He was hot and slick with sweat, apparently working hard with Serj. I grabbed him by the hand and pulled him to the back where I found and empty supply room. I pushed him hard against the door and ran my hands up and down his hard body until I found the large lump that was hidden behind his chained pants. He slid his tongue in my mouth and wiggled it against mine then sucked my lips as his hands slid down the back of my skirt again this time he let them slide up and underneath where he found the string that offered no protection between my legs. He groaned as his fingers ran down my crack towards the front. I hiked up my leg and allowed him his pleasure until he could stand it no more. Leaning back against a table I held myself there for him, legs open as he dropped his pants to his ankles. He slid himself inside me quickly, burying himself to the very end and moaned. He pumped me wildly as the music of Opeth pounded around us. As he moved himself in and out, I urged him on with kisses and little licks until he came inside me, crying out in what sounded like pleasure mixed with pain. I held him against me until he’d calmed down. Then both of us composed ourselves before heading back out to the stage. Josh sat on a barstool and leaned back against the wall as he held me tightly against him, his arms wrapped around my shoulders until it was time for me to introduce the next band which was Evanescence. When I returned he held me again throughout the set.
JOSH TAKES THE STAGE
It seemed to take an eternity but when I finally announced the main act of the show, System of a Down, Josh paced around backstage like a caged animal. Stagehands fitted him with a microphone and he prepped himself best as he could while waiting to be called to the stage. As I heard Serj talking about a ‘special friend’ who was there, someone who he was a fan of and then invited Josh out onto the stage I felt butterflies batting around in my belly. I was so excited for him, I could only imagine how excited he was for himself. I watched as he made his way out into the spotlight and waved to the roaring crowd. Half of them probably had no clue who Josh was, I thought with a giggle. He sang two songs with the band and then played the drums through one more. John joined me behind the curtain and marveled at how talented Josh was. I had to agree, boyfriend or not. When John went back to the stage and Josh came off I threw my arms around him. He was sweating like a pig and held himself away from me.
“You were fantastic!” I gushed. He beamed proudly and kissed me as he slid his hands up my backside.
“I want you again.” He whispered into my ear and I felt a wave of desire sweep through my body making me flush pink.
“Now?” I whispered back. He nodded. I dragged him back to the supply room and this time he bent me over the table and took me from behind. I heightened his pleasure by backing into him after every stroke so he could go in as far as possible. He wrapped his arms around me and slid his long, slender fingers between my legs. He wiggled them against me until I felt the heat building in my thighs and the pit of my stomach and as my orgasm overtook me I cried out loudly and called his name. Josh, excited by the tight spasms between my legs came moments later with a rush that left him weak. We sat together on the table for some time before we were able to walk out of the room. Fatigued, I grabbed Josh’s arm and glanced at the time on his watch. It was well after 2. My body ached to lay down, curl up in Josh’s arms and go to sleep but my job dictated that I stay until the end of the concert to thank the guests. This time I sat on the bar stool while Josh held me tightly in his arms from behind until System was finished and left the stage. I then went out, thanked everyone for coming and met Josh backstage. Josh and I mingled somewhat at the after show party until I was falling asleep standing up. He had to hold me to keep me awake. We finally made our way through hoards of fans and flashing lights as they photographed us leaving the Greek. I slept the whole way home and barely remember Josh carrying me up the stairs to bed where he gently undressed me and tucked me under the covers while he went into the bathroom to brush his teeth. As soon as he crawled under the blanket with me he tucked himself around me and I was already out.
