  “Your mom is welcome here anytime, and I don’t think we will be strangers. I invited her to London with me next month for the red carpet event.”

  “Are you serious? She would love that.”

  “I would love it too, and don’t you let her change her mind. It won’t cost her a penny.”

  “I don’t think she is worried about the money. I am very proud of her. She has done well for herself, my sister and me.”

  “I don’t doubt that for a second.”

  Trevas drove the big black SUV with the darkened windows and Peyton, Kay and Alley all rode in the back seat. Trevas followed Peyton’s orders, and they started on Melrose Avenue in downtown Los Angeles. He waited on the sidewalk as they put bags in the back, going from store to store while he inched the vehicle along following them. It was only a matter of time before cameras were starting to bombard the sidewalk and Trevas was pissed. The ladies were having a grand time and Alley was laughing and happy. He wanted them to be able to spend the day without worrying about the media.

  “Hey guys, come on, leave them alone,” he pleaded, with the three men waiting to attack when they came out of the store.

  “This is public property,” one of them stated, not about to leave Payton Paxton or her daughter alone, and Trevas knew it, when more and more people started to congregate with cellphones held up, ready to get a shot.

  Trevas text Alley and told her not to come out until she text or called because the sidewalk was full of fans and papz.

  “Are you fucking kidding me?” she said, calling him.

  “No, I’m not kidding, and the longer you stay in there, the more will assemble.”

  “Okay, we are coming now,” she said after telling her mom.

  Trevas went to the door and held his arm out as a barrier from the screaming people. He opened the back door and made sure Alley was in first. She would be the one to say something as he heard them ask her what tattoo she got. Once he had them all safely in the vehicle, he had to pull out slowly because they swarmed the car, still snapping pictures.

  Kay was beside herself and watched as Peyton and Alley held their heads down, and she knew that they had endured this a time or two or a thousand.

  “Put your head down Kay. Don’t give the bastards the time of day.” Alley laughed, but they were already in traffic and sitting backup.

  “This is crazy,” she exclaimed, but felt bad that they couldn’t even go shopping without dealing with this.

  “It is ridiculous,” Peyton replied.

  “Sorry ladies but shopping is done. I have about seven cars following me right now, and the only place we are going is home.”

  “Is it always like this?” Kay asked, curious and intrigued with their lifestyle.

  “Only since I was like three,” Alley admitted.

  No wonder Alley was pissed at the world she thought. The poor girl didn’t have a chance at a normal life.

  Trevas carried in their bags, and even though they didn’t get to spend the whole day like they had planned, they did end up with the whole backend full of stuff. Kay came out to help and was glad for the alone time with Trevas.

  Trevas smiled at her and kissed her on the cheek. “What do you think of all this?”

  “I think its nuts. I understand Alley a lot better now that I see what she has had to live with her whole life, and I understand why she wouldn’t want to be in a movie. I thought she was crazy when you told me she didn’t want to do it.”

  “I understand you are going to London with the famous Peyton Paxton,” he teased.

  “Do you think I should go? I mean I don’t think I would fit in very well.”

  “I think you would fit in just fine, and Peyton loves you. I think you should go. When will you ever get another chance to go to London with your idol?”

  “Never in a million years,” she admitted.

  Trevas changed into khaki shorts and a t-shirt and waited for Alley to come down to join Peyton and Kay in the pool. He watched her with hungry eyes descend the stairs in her white bikini, and she went straight into his arms.

  “What would happen if I pulled this string right here?” he teased, taking the thin string on her hip and twirling it around his finger.

  “I would be naked,” she smiled and kissed him.

  “I better stay inside,” he admitted.

  “No, come out with us, I like tormenting you.”

  “You are such an evil princess,” he ran the backside of his finger down her tattoo. “Does it hurt?” he asked.

  “A little,” she replied, and he bent down and kissed it. “It doesn’t hurt anymore,” she smiled.

  Alley did torment him every chance she got. He wouldn’t get in the pool because of being afraid of paparazzi, and sat on a lounge chair, and watched. She eyed him and purposely dove under the water in front of him, pushing her breast out toward him as she put her head back in the water.

  Peyton and Kay floated around on rafts and Trevas kept their drinks filled. Alley got out first, and again eyed him as she walked toward him to retrieve a towel. She bent and gave him a quick kiss, letting the water from her body drip onto his.

  “I’m all wet,” she whispered. “Follow me,” she added, and left him sitting with his mouth hanging open.

  “Hey, where are you guys going?” Peyton asked when he got up to follow her.

  “Wherever Alley tells me to go,” Trevas answered, not turning around, afraid they would see in his face what he was really up to.

  “I have never seen Trevas like this Peyton,” Kay told her, amazed at the infatuation her son had for her daughter.

  Peyton took a drink of her ice tea from the cup holder in the raft. “Believe me, Alley has made like a three sixty since he has been around. I know what you mean, and I have never seen anyone handle her like he does. All of the other help we have ever had for her has bowed down to her like she was some sort of evil princess.” She explained, throwing in the evil princess on purpose. “Trevas doesn’t care, he will put her in her place in a heartbeat, and not care what she or anyone else thinks, and she listens to him, that is what baffles me,” she laughed.

  “He did fight his feelings for her really hard Peyton. He didn’t want to fall in love with her, and he does love her with all of his heart. I know my son, and he is head over hills.”

  “I know he didn’t want to fall in love with her, but I’m almost glad he did. Can I tell you a secret, between you and me?”

  “Of course.”

  “I tried to get Trevas in bed a couple of weeks ago. Well not really, I wasn’t going to sleep with him, I probably would have thrown him out of my house. I did it because Fletcher was sure he was in it for sex, and bet me that he didn’t love her, and I could get him in bed. He totally freaked out on me,” she laughed, remembering their encounter. “I’m almost forty years old, and have I never been turned down for that.”

  Kay smiled a warm smile, feeling proud of her son. “I’m surprised that he had the will to say no myself, I mean you are absolutely beautiful.”

  “Thanks Kay but I think you are pretty hot yourself,” she replied, and they laughed.

  “Is there a significant other?” Kay asked, and then wondered if it was too personal, and wished she could take it back.

  “There is not. There is James who is the hottest freaking lover on the face of this earth,” she joked, “but no, not anyone that I would put any roots down with. How about you?”

  “No, I have a James too, but his name is Ken. He is one of my sales reps and stops by on occasion. I really need to put a stop to that,” she added, thinking about the situation.

  “Yeah me too, but I’m like some stupid teenager when he calls. No matter how many times I tell myself that I’m telling him that we are not doing this anymore, as soon as he calls I’m like, yes come over, please come over.”

  They laughed, “I know exactly what you mean,” Kay admitted.

  “Kay let’s go to a club tonight.” Peyton requested, excited as
it had just come to her.

  “A club, do you know how long it has been since I have been to a club?”

  “Come on it’ll be fun. I will get us a driver and call ahead, so we don’t have to deal with what we did today.”

  “I really didn’t bring anything to wear for a club.”

  “I have a whole closet full of clothes.”

  “I can’t wear your clothes.”

  “I bet you can, you’re a little taller, but I would say we are about the same size.”

  Kay toasted her glass toward her. “Let’s go to a club.”

  Trevas entered Alley’s room, and she was standing by the bed with a sexy look in her eyes.

  “I’m like a freaking puppet on a string with you,” Trevas told her.

  “How about you pull my string,” she bid, twisting the string on her hip around her finger.

  Trevas pulled her close to him, soaking his shirt with her wet top. He kissed her and then stepped away and pulled one string at a time. She moved her hair to the side, beckoning him to un-tie her top, and of course he did.

  “This is kind of sexy,” he said softly, running his thumb down her tattooed ribs, and she smiled. I knew he liked it, she thought.

  Trevas backed her up until her legs were against the bed, and laid her down, sideways across the bed. He removed his shirt, and came to her mouth with his, and she moaned a soft moan.

  “Go down on me Trevas,” Alley whispered, with panting breaths as her hips arched into his.

  “Gladly,” he said, moving down, and wished a million times over that he wouldn’t have when Peyton burst in to tell them she was ordering pizza, and ask them what they wanted.

  “Jesus Christ mom!” Alley yelled, and Trevas abruptly moved away from her as she grabbed the comforter to cover herself.

  Peyton stood frozen and couldn’t move or talk and Alley screamed at her. “What the hell are you doing? Get out!” Peyton shook her head, trying to come to her senses as she left.

  “Did that really just happen?” Trevas asked, pulling on his shorts as Alley started putting her own clothes on, fuming at her mother for barging in.

  “Yes, utterly and ridiculously it did,” she said angrily.

  “Alley, don’t go down there yelling at her. We should have locked the door. I can’t face her yet, so you be nice,” he insisted and kissed her lightly.

  “You look like you saw a ghost,” Kay told her as she came back down.

  “I wish I had of” she admitted. “I just witnessed your son doing the nasty with my daughter.”

  “You walked in on them having sex?”

  “No. I could probably handle that. He was between her legs but not with his penis.”

  “Oh God,” Kay said, covering her ears. “I don’t need to know the details.”

  “What the hell is wrong with you?” Alley yelled, coming down dressed in shorts and a t-shirt. “Don’t you know how to knock?” she asked furious.

  “I’m sorry Alley, it is the middle of the afternoon, you know? I never dreamed you were doing whatever it was you were doing.”

  “Why because you never had afternoon sex? Trevas is so embarrassed, he won’t come down now.”

  “What do you want me to say? I said I was sorry. I won’t come up there when he is here anymore.”

  “He’s always here, and you always just open the door and come in.”

  “You can’t lock the freaking door?”

  “Yes I can lock it just as easy as you knock,” she yelled.

  “Do you want me to go talk to him?” Peyton asked, hoping like hell she said no.

  “Yes!” she yelled, and Peyton took a deep breath and walked up the steps.

  Peyton knocked on the door.

  “Yeah,” he said standing at the window with his armed leaned up against it, over his head.

  He turned to see that it was Peyton. “Now you knock,” he stated, turning back to the window unable to look at her.

  “This is just as embarrassing for me as it is you Trevas,” she told him.

  “I highly doubt that.”

  “I’m sorry, let’s just forget that it happened, and I will make sure that it doesn’t happen again.”

  Trevas turned toward her, and she smiled at him, he shook his head in disbelief. He put his arm around her and kissed the top of her head. “You mention one word of this to Fletcher, and I will hire a hit man to take you out,” he threatened, and she hugged him back.

  “Come on, let’s get something to eat. I’m taking your mom to a club.”

  “My mother is going to a club?” he asked, shocked.

  “Yup,” she admitted, and he told her he would be down in a minute, and she left him.

  Trevas text Alley and she was reading it when her mother came back down.

  “We’re good, what do you want on your pizza?” Peyton asked.

  “Pepperoni, mushrooms and black olives,” she replied, reading the message.

  “I need papers or that little bowl that you keep hidden,” she read, and smiled and went to him.

  Alley sat cross legged on the bed and tossed him a pack of papers. He sat beside her, and she laughed at him, trying to roll a joint. “Do you need some help with that?” she teased, and he handed it over to her.

  “You’re the expert,” he smiled, and got up, opened the window and turned the exhaust fan on in her bathroom. They smoked about half of it and put it out.

  “Do you want to finish what you started?” she asked, laying down and rubbing his abs with her hand.

  He moved her hand. “No freaking way,” he said, still freaked out about Peyton walking in on them.

  “You don’t have to finish that, just get me off,” she said, and he laughed calling her an overzealous evil princess.

  “Stop adding names, you’re going to have my whole body tattooed,” she teased and straddled him. “Please,” she begged shoving her tongue into his mouth.

  “You are a spoiled, overzealous, rebellious, evil princess,” he told her kissing her back, and then flipped her over, forcefully removing her shorts. He took her without a second thought. He loved making love to her and staring down at her beneath him as she arched her back and called out in pleasure.

  “Awe fuck Trevas,” she moaned, at the same time he thrust deep into her and released himself, just in time to hear Kay yell up, telling them that the pizza was there. She wasn’t about to come up to personally tell them. She didn’t know if she would ever go back up there again.

  Trevas kissed the tip of her nose. “I love you,” he said and took her hand, pulling her up with him.

  “I love you too, and I’m very hungry,” she replied, getting dressed.

  “You’re not hungry. You’re stoned, and you have the munchies.”

  “Hmm, that could be it,” she agreed. “I am pretty stoned.”

  “Me too, and now I’m paranoid to go downstairs.”

  Alley laughed and looked at her eyes in the mirror. “We better use some Visine,” she decided, and took it from the bathroom medicine cabinet where they both squirted it into their eyes.

  “How’s that?” she asked.

  “Your eyes look okay, but you’re still stoned.”

  Alley laughed, and they walked down and sat at the table with their parents. They laughed over things that Kay or Peyton said that wasn’t really funny, and ate more than their fair share of pizza.

  “If I didn’t know better I would think you two were stoned,” Peyton told them, and they laughed even harder.

  Trevas took Alley all the way to Cross to watch a movie, and Peyton and Kay went out to the club. Kay didn’t think she had ever had so much fun in her life, and was quite taken aback by how the famous people she was introduced to were so down to earth, and really were just like her. Although she was worried that she would feel out of place and be awkward around Peyton’s superstar friends she fit in just fine, and was able to laugh and have a good time.

  She did wear Peyton’s clothes and had on a black mini skirt wit
h a sexy satin blue shirt with a black design and black high heel shoes that also belonged to Peyton. She did feel awkward on the way home when James came home with Peyton. James was all over Peyton in the back seat. She tried hard to look out the window and not pay attention, but could still tell what was going on.

  Trevas and Alley were already in bed when they arrived, and Peyton of course went right to bed. Trevas came down when he heard them come home, and his mom was removing the heels.

  “Did you have fun?” he asked.

  “I had a blast Trevas. I haven’t had that much fun in years,” she admitted.

  He started to ask where Peyton was and then heard the noises of her moans coming from the opened glass door. She had hers opened too, and they were practically side by side. He moved over and slid it closed, and they laughed when he turned back to his mom.

  “James?” he asked, and she nodded.

  “Sit with me,” she requested, and stumbled a little when she sat on the sofa.

  “Are you drunk mom?” he asked, sitting beside her.

  “What was it Alley said the other day?” she asked, thinking about it. “Most definitely,” she admitted, and he laughed at her.

  “We have to go to the auction tomorrow Trevas,” she said, sounding a little sad.

  He wrapped his arm around her and kissed her head. “I know. I’m not looking forward to it either. I’m not buying anything. I don’t want it,” he stated.

  “What about grandpas war medals? You don’t want those?”

  “Grandpa gave those to me about five years ago, and grandma gave me her hand written recipes,” he explained, and she smiled, knowing that was probably all that he cared about.

  “I hate the thought of people scavenging through their things,” she admitted.

  “Me too, and I talked to Anna tonight, and she sounds like she is trying to get out of it too.”

  “I know, I talked to her too, but she will be there,” Kay guaranteed. “Can I take your car in the morning? I want to go spend the day with them tomorrow before the auction. I figured it would be easier for me to not be sad around them if I do it before the auction.”
