The guys went wild once I finished and I blew some air kisses to the crowd which were answered with even more hooting. I handed the mic back to Kev, waved goodbye and turned to leave when I practically stumbled into Alex.

"Oh I'm sorry" I said still a bit out of breath. "and I'm sorry I messed up your song and for the little act. It must be weird hearing someone else trying to sing it."

"Don't be ridiculous, you were awsome and I like the show you did for the poor fellows, they don't have a lot of chances to see the sets because they have to sleep early. But I don't think I heard you before. What band are you in, are you guys newcomers?"

To that I could only burst out laughing trying to steady myself by putting a hand on his chest "Oh my, you are such a suck-up! No, I do not belong to a band, in fact I am one of those poor fellows who have to go to bed early."

He slapped his forehead "Of course, I should've known. You are the little Angelface driving the bus from Hell."

I raised my eyebrows at him "My name is Easy, not Angelface, and is that really what people say about me?" He nodded. I grinned and shook my head 'The bus from hell' what a fitting description.

Alex and me had simply started walking together when he suddenly stopped and asked me. "What are you up to?"

"Actually I wanted to take a nap in my hammock that I hung between those trees over there." I pointed towards the egde of the venue where there was a grassy area with some shading trees.

"I walk you over" He simply decided.

When I sat down in my hammock taking my legs up and starting to swing lightly Alex just stood there faking an adorable little pout, "That looks so comfy I wanna lay there too, make some room" I swear this guy is such a kid sometimes.

I scooted over to make some room, still he had to squeeze himself in because that's how a hammock works. We finally got comfortable although being squashed together tightly. He let out a sigh and raised his arm to put it around my neck. We just quietly lay there in the shade enjoying each others company, relaxing and I fell into a light slumber, when after a while I felt Alex turning his head looking at me, his fingers playing with my curls.

"Do you have a boyfriend, Easy?"

Well that came out of nowhere. "Not currently, no. Why?"

"What do you do when you get lonely?"

"What are you talking about? I am lonely all the time. 'my band' hates me and you might have noticed that I don't really fit in with the drivers as well."

"No I mean, like what do you do when you get, you know, sexually frustrated" He blushed a little at this but smiled cheekily.

I decided to play it cool. "I suck it up and let it go. Save it for a better time." I chuckled.

"I mean if you're ever in need of - ahem - releasing the tension then I would gladly help, no strings attached, purely keeping it amongst friends." he took my hand kissing it lightly while staring at me from under his bangs. "You really have beautiful eyes you know that? It's like diving in the ocean, I could get lost in there." What a sassy little bitch.

"Thanks for the offer, I'll think about it" I planted a quick kiss on the top of his nose. "But for now cuddly time is over I have to get back to see if 'my band'," here I made air quotes and a disgusted face "needs me."

" I come with you" he stated.

We had quite some laughs until we finally got out of the hammock nearly falling over each other and went back to Asking's bus.

I was about to turn around to Alex saying my goodbye when I saw a fuming Danny walking up to us.

"Hey Gaskarth," he shouted "you seem to have hit an all time low here trying to hook up with our crew members, how desperate are you?"

He took me by the shoulders pointing at my shirt. "you see this, it says Asking Alexandria that is to say she belongs to us, so back of loverboy. Go find yourself some other bitch."

That's it! This guy is a lunatic! I am not having this anymore! "WHAT?" I screamed at him " You are not telling me who I want to hang out with. Piss off and leave me alone, Danny"

"Oh if you are so into this fucker, why don't you go and drive All Time Low's bus then?" by now we were nearly standing nose to nose, like two pitbulls ready to fight. There was a moment of silence when Danny waited for my comeback. I noticed there were a lot of people around us watching the scene unfold. I suppose it was better entertainment than those lame tv morning shows. Even Alex just stood there watching in suspense.

Here was my go: "Believe me, I have already asked each and every single one of my colleges if they want to swap buses with me." I pointed to the drivers area. "Here is some news for you, Danny-Boy." I practically spit out his name "Nobody wants to drive you and your fucking band!" I heard some "Ooohhh's" and chuckles from the crowd.

I stared into his eyes not wanting to break the gaze first when I saw some emotion flashing in them that I could not quite make out. Was it hurt or anger? It had obviously never occurred to him that I wasn't all that happy to drive them either. Getting Danny Warsnop dumbfounded, priceless! Then he suddenly turned around and started to walk away. "Fuck you" he said over his shoulder while flipping me off.

"You'd wish!" I called after him. I know that is so lame but I just couldn't resist.

When I turned around to face Alex he grinned and shook his head lightly. "Wow, you are a little hand-grenade, aren't you.

I cleared my throat trying to shake off the anger that had flooded me seconds before. "Alex, I think I feel pretty lonely at the moment, what was that you offered me earlier?"

"Hey, I said anytime" He had the widest smile on his face as he gave me a soft peck on the lips, taking my hand and pulling me towards his bus.

....

Not only did we have amazing sex (and I mean amazing, wow Alex, wow!) but he had the rare trait of making you laugh while being in bed with him as well, there had not been one single awkward moment in this.
After we caught our breaths we lay cuddled under the sheets in the back lounge of his bus. I was on my back eyes closed just enjoying the moment and he was propped up on his elbow pressed to my side his leg resting over mine his fingers softly caressing my skin on my throat and chest this sweet half smile on his adorable lips.

It was only then I noticed the two bite marks I had left on his upper arm and I am not talking of love bites those were actual bites, the skin wasn't split but you could see every single tooth mark already turning a dark purple.

" Oh shit, Alex I am sorry I didn't realise I bit you that hard" I truly felt awful my fingers stroking the bruised area.

" That's what a warrior gets from loving a lion" he answered with a smile " I am gonna wear those marks with pride."

" You not gonna brag about them, are you? " I teased raising an eyebrow.

"Oh maybe a little bit, but don't worry I am not gonna tell whose teeth made these."

"Good, people tell enough shit about me as it is, no need to spread more rumours." I leaned in for another kiss.

Notes

Whoa, Alex . And what's up with Danny?
