writing challenge: write about a time in your muse's life that changed everythingwww.roleplayer.me/goddessofrock
Sunlight peeked through the dark red curtains and landed softly on Stevie's face, the woman blinking a few times to adjust the sudden brightness in the room before looking over at the clock to see the time. 9:34am. Letting out a soft groan, Stevie would start to stretch in bed before she felt the back of her hand hit someone behind her, her eyes widening quickly as she replayed the previous night's events in her head. She knows she drank quite a bit, and she remembers kissing someone outside in the rain, but who she wanted it to be versus who was laying behind her in bed could've been two different things. The one thing she remembers vividly was the scruff that tickled her chin when they kissed - and that tickled her thighs when they were in the middle of making passionate love last night.
Slowly rolling over, a yawn escaped her lips as she felt his arm wrap around her and pull her close to him. "Mm, mhm, I've been waiting for you to wake up, darlin', thought I'd be waiting all day" His morning rasped tone to his voice equally melted his heart and turned her on more than she's felt in quite a long time. The way that he awakened something she thought was long dead made her all but fall in love with him all over again.
"Mmhm, you know me, I could sleep until noon..."
"It wouldn't be the first time I've had you so wore out..." His cocky demeanor when it comes to knowing how good he is in the bedroom, how he pleases her more than anyone she's ever been with, made her just scoff before he buried her head into his chest and sighed contently. The sound of his heartbeat relaxed her, yet it was a bittersweet moment because she knew this wasn't going to last. He'd get up, get dressed and go home to his wife and she'd get back to putting her bent heart back together from her recent divorce. "I wish you didn't have to leave soon."
"Whoa, who said I was leavin', darlin'?" Stevie pulled her head off his chest and leaned up, her eyes locking with them gorgeous baby blue eyes of his before tilting her head to the side. "Dana..." "We got a divorce, I finally saw what you, the girls, and the band had been telling me for years now. I contacted Christine when I saw you and Lindsey's divorce in the media and she told me about the record company party..." Stevie's heart raced, she wanted him just to say it, after all the years of them playing around, she wanted him to just say that he wanted to be with her. The feeling in the pit of her stomach was a feeling she hadn't felt since 1995 since he was recording Wildflowers and they laid in bed together after a night of passionate lovemaking. But, this time was different, they both were older, sober, more mature, and had been through literal hell and back to get to where they are now.
"W - what are you saying, Thomas?"
"I'm saying I'm done with us walking around each other and being with people who didn't truly love us. I'm saying I'm sick of random hook-ups and then one of us leaves and always leaves something for the other to have..." Tom paused, looking over his shoulder to look at his aviators hanging off an old picture of the two she had on her bedside table. "I'm saying we need to just be together, and not like we were before when an argument tore us apart and everything went to sh*t, darlin'. I'm sayin' that we need to just -- be together. You and I, as it was supposed to be years ago..."
Stevie felt her heart start to race while her eyes filled up with tears, her not being able to say anything as she'd instead lean up and press her lips against his for a passionate kiss, moaning against his lips before he pulled away to catch his breath.
"I'm saying I want to be with you, Steph, you and I. Whether it's for a year or ten, I want to ride out this crazed life of mine with you by my side, baby"
His words made her feel like she was back in 1978, the moment they first locked eyes in a studio, her heart felt like they were back in 1995, laying in bed at his home while he was recording an album, but his touch made her feel like she finally found the peace within love that she had been looking for since she was seventeen, and her soul finally felt whole - as it did everytime they were together. This moment felt different, as if everything that happened led to this moment, and she finally felt the way she had spent so much time writing songs and poems about - content.
"Then, I say let's do this. Let's be together, I want nothing more than to be with you..."
Stevie couldn't believe, even at 72 years old, life could feel as if it was starting all over again by simply saying yes. And, if she wasn't sure saying yes was the right thing to do, the moment their lips locked for yet another kiss, him gently pushing her on her back before climbing on top of her as her heart started to race, it was the fact he made her feel 25 again that sealed the deal for her, her life from this moment on was going to be changed forever -- in the best possible way.
everything happens for a reason.
