"Forever Love" - Part 20

"Maybe you should go to my dressing room?" Alex asked standing close to Allison and Nick. 

She moved away from Nick immediately and looked confused at him. "Why?" Nick laughed rubbing off her lipstick from his mouth.

"Well, there's no bed, but a small table should be enough for you to go on with her." Alex said looking ironically at Nick. 

Nick laughed loud, but Allison gave him such a look that he stopped. "Sorry, we shouldn't kiss here." She said quietly to Alex.

"Hey, it's ok! Having such a sexy wife like you I would do the same as Nick! Everywhere..." Alex said smiling at her and taking her hand to kiss it. "Alex Band. Really nice to meet you."

"Yeah, right. Like I wouldn't know." She said making them all laugh. "Allison Carter." She smiled feeling her heart melting with every following minute.

"The best thing I have in my life and MY WIFE." Nick added standing behind her and embracing her waist. 

Alex smiled wondering how many times Nick would stress it. "So tell me something about you."

"There's nothing to say. I'm just a normal girl working like everybody."

"You're a model or actress for sure." Alex said.

"Stop kidding! What made you think like that?" Allison laughed.

"With your look... Woman, you took my breath away when I saw you during "Could It Be Any Harder"!" They both laughed. Just Nick starred at them starting to feel unwanted in that conversation.

"You're really nice, but I don't find myself special at all!" She said. They talked for awhile laughing all the time.

"My WIFE is one of the best photographers in the entertainment business." Nick said taking his hands away from Allison. He wanted to make her feel comfortable talking to Alex for the first time knowing how shy she was meeting new people, but it looked like she clicked with Alex really quick.

"Man, how many times you'll repeat she's your wife?! I'm not deaf... just a bit dazed by Ally... but not deaf!" Alex said making Allison blushing again. She looked at Nick. He was the only one person who called her Ally from the very beginning of their relationship. Nick just smiled at Alex. He didn't want to start any fight knowing Allison wouldn't like it at all. "We're going to have a photo session for our new album. Maybe you could do it?"

"Gosh, I'd love to!" Allison said.

"Some magazines asked me to do my own sessions too so... I'd be honoured if you could do it for me."

"Really? I'll do my best! God, it's one of my best days ever!" She laughed touching her necklace.

"Wow, it's beautiful. Can I see it?" Alex touched the diamond hanging almost between her breasts hidden under the tight top. She couldn't help trembling, when she felt the touch of his fingertips on her skin.

"It's... it's Nick's birthday gift..." Allison managed to whisper that.

"Oh... it's your birthday today?!" 

"Yeah." She smiled.

"Man, why you didn't tell me that?!" Alex looked at Nick. 

"What for? You sang only for her anyway!" Nick said.

"You noticed that?" Alex laughed satisfied. "Happy birthday, Ally!" He kissed her cheek and felt good her shivering.

"It's really the best one I ever had. Thanks to you." She said kissing back his cheek.

"I got you, babe." Alex thought looking deep into her eyes.

"Honey, we have to go home. It's midnight already." Nick said grabbing her hand. 

"What? Oh, yeah. You're right. Bye, Alex." She said waking up from the trance.

"I hope to see you soon. Take care, babe." He gave her a hug and shook Nick's hand.

All the way home Nick didn't talk to Allison at all. He felt something happening that evening. She looked away smiling all the time. Finally they were home. Allison went to the kitchen to drink some water. Some COLD water.

"You're mad at me?" Nick asked standing close to her. 

She poured some water into the glass."Do you want some?"

"Yeah, please." She didn't say anything, so Nick asked again. "Ally, you're mad at me that I took you there or what?"

"No, I'm happy you did it." Allison said drinking the water. "It's good to know that there's a guy, who doesn't treat me like a child but sees a woman in me."

"What? You're trying to tell me I treat you like a child?" Nick asked surprised.

"Isn't it like that? You made me feel completely stupid in front of him repeating I'm your wife. I felt like your property - house, car or whatever." She drank again.

Nick looked at her. After a minute of hesitation he stood behind her and embraced her waist. "I'm sorry. Maybe you're right. I really didn't mean it. I just felt unsure seeing you both clicking so quick."

"Nick, I don't wanna talk about it now. It was a really great evening. Let's stop there." She said.

"You're right, I won't say anything more." Nick felt it wouldn't be good to continue that. He took her hair away from her shoulder and started to kiss her neck whispering in her ear: "You look really sexy tonight."

Allison gasped surprised by that. She didn't want to refuse him, but when his hands travelled up to her breasts and touched her exactly there where Alex did it admiring her necklace, she couldn't help reminding him again. "God..." She whispered.

"What's wrong?" Nick asked.

"Nothing." She responsed quickly getting out of his arms and opening the fridge to take another bottle of water. When she closed the fridge and turned around, Nick suddenly pressed her against the fridge and kissed deeply. "Nick, please... what are you doing?" 

"Working on our baby like every night." He smiled pulling up her top.

"Nick, I'm too tired... please..." She tried to pull down the top.

"Ally, I want you so much..." He whispered starting to unzip her jeans and licking her ear.

"You want me to prove something that way or what?!" She yelled at him. "You're going too far!"

"Me?" He looked surprised at her. Suddenly he seemed to understand everything.

"Why are you looking at me like that?" Allison asked frightened.

"It's him." Nick said quietly.

"What?"

"That man you told me you imagine pleasuring yourself is Alex... Alex Band, who I wanted to meet you... My God!" He stepped back looking at her and not believing in that. She dropped the bottle and it broke hitting the floor. Starting to cry Allison run upstairs and locked in their bedroom. Nick sat on the chair and starred at the broken glass. "That's why she was so nervous going there... Now I understand everything..."
