Chapter 19

They strolled back to the hotel at a leasurely pace. David continued to gently question Carly about her life back in Jersey, marveling at how he managed to live only an hours drive away from this magnificent gentle creature only to have their paths cross on this exotic island. They managed to sneak through the hotel's lobby completely undetected by roaming fans and papparazzi and jumped into an elevator. He pressed the button for his floor, and smiled in response to Carly's questioning look.

"We can't go back to your room sweetheart. We might interrupt some fantasies in progress!" He grinned as she yet again blushed and nodded in agreement. He led her to his room and ushered them inside.

Carly looked around his room and smiled. Never in my wildest dreams did I imagine myself standing in David Bryan's hotel room, in Hawaii of all places! Well, maybe in her wildest gutter fantasies she did! Her brow quirked upward. Speaking of the gutter fantasies.

"So David, Geena said you found our website... Did you have a chance to look around?" she asked.

"Sure darlin, that one section called 'One Wild Night' definitely caught my eye!" He smirked.

Oh My God!!!! He found the gutter! The one section that she felt safe to play in, the one she was the Moderator for... How could've this happen?!?!!? Geena has asured her that the password would guarantee their safety and annonimity! Carly audibly gulped and felt herself blush AGAIN....

With a lazy smile, David watched the emotions play on her face. Soo there is that gutter girl deep down inside this shy shell. How do I get her to come out to play? "So, Darlin, do you really dream about running your fingers and tongue over my ink?" He asked with a smirk as he slowly reached to unbutton his shirt.

"David!!!" Carly squeeked loudly and took a step back.

He laughed and raised his hands up in a mock surrender gesture. "OK, OK...But we seriously need to talk about those fantasies of yours."

Just when she thought that she could not possibly blush any deeper, Carly felt her face burning...

"David, uhmmm, this place...the gutter...you have to understand...its just an outlet of sorts... you know...a place where we can vent and fantasize... but we aren't... I'm not like that in real life!"

"I see...All Talk No Action!" he laughed.

"Well, no...not at first...at least," she whispered looking down at the floor.

"Ooooo, can we explore that a bit more?" He reached out and gently tipped her chin up with his index finger.

Carly shuddered at their contact, took a deep breath and managed to stutter out, "Well, don't get me wrong David. I'm not a prude...but I'm NOT a groupie either!"

"Sweetheart, I never thought you would be!"

"Its just that I don't cross over to the physical spectrum until I get to know the guy better...and NEVER on the first date!"

"How about a second date?" he asked, cocking an eyebrow.

Carly shook her head at him and giggled.. "You're soo bad, Mr. Bryan!"

He shrugged his shoulders and sighed loudly "Yes, I'm a very bad boy! I think I need to be punished! Care to do it?" He winked at her...

Carly stared at him for a second, then threw her head back and laughed. "I might just take you up on that!"

He nodded and looked at her expectantly.

"Well, since you're so eager to explore my fantasies..." she started.

"O YES baby, please lets explore those!!" He gave her an eager puppy look and stuck his tongue out and panted for a full effect.

Carly could not stop the giggles that escaped. He was definitely living up to his Joker nickname.

She reached and took his hand and gently tugged him towards the baby grand in the corner of his suite.

"I have this one fantasy where you play just for me! So could you please?"

"I will...." he said as he sat down on the piano bench "But with one condition!" he smiled and patted the spot next to him "You sit here...with me!"

Carly hesitated for a split second, then carefuly sat down next to David...hitching her breath at the heat comming from his body. That did not escape his attention... He smiled, then gently placed his left arm around her and gave her shoulder a sqeeze as he leaned over and placed a kiss on top of her head...his own breath caught at the sweet smell of her hair.

Quickly giving himself a mental shake and willing his waking errection away, he asked " What would you like to hear baby?"

"Surprise me" she whispered back with slightly shaking voice.

David nodded, flexed his fingers and started to play a hauntingly familiar melody.
