Finally finished :-) Thank you for the lovely reviews, I hope you like this, decided to use the title song as the one Eliot sings, orginally he sang every time by Britney, but secret smile seemed more in tune with the story, so i edited and changed it, Im seriously considering another S/E story set some time in s1, but need to finish the others I have on the go
I hope you like this :-) Ellie
Sophie was starting to get frustrated at Eliot's behaviour, normal men would be falling at her feet and begging her, and he was ignoring her, and somehow that made her want him more, normally she would just lose interest but this one was cute, and being up close to him and seeing how blue his eyes were she was more on a mission to taste him.
Eliot smirked to himself and decided that she was clearly primed; he liked making women want him and giving this one the cold shoulder was clearly working, he allowed himself to look her up and down, nice body he smiled.
The song finished, and the band walked off stage for a break, the bar owner walked up on stage
"while the band take a quick break we will have our normal open mic night, and let's start with a crowd fav…."
"Excuse me for a few minutes, Miss Bennet, as long as Mr Darcy doesn't appear I shall see you after this" Said Eliot purposely ensuring she couldn't heard his name being called out, well the fake name he used at this bar, he tipped his imaginary hat and stood up walking to the stage, the audience cheered. Sophie was very interested and when he sat down with the guitar she agreed men did look sexier with a guitar
"This is a cover but a song I really like, I hope I do it justice" he said with a strong hint of southern drawl in his voice
"Nobody knows it but you've got a secret smile
And you use it only for me
Nobody knows it but you've got a secret smile
And you use it only for me
So use it and prove it
Remove this whirling sadness
I'm losing I'm blue sing
But you can't save me from madness
Nobody knows it but you've got a secret smile
And you use it only for me
Nobody knows it but you've got a secret smile
And you use it only for me
So save me I'm waiting
I'm needing, hear me pleading
And soothe me, improve me
I'm grieving, I'm barely believing it now, now
When you are flying around and around the world
And I'm lying a lonely
I know there's something sacred and free reserved
And received by me only"
He had sung the whole song with his eyes shut as if he was the only person in the room, and the crowd was totally hooked, as the song ended he looked up and opened his beautiful blue eyes and looked at the crowd, who erupted in cheers, he nodded slightly and moved to get off the stage, the bar tender came back, thanked Eliot and introduced the next act, a chubby older lady in a top that was far too small for her, she had a backing tape, and seemed to be of the impression it was karaoke night, and she launched in to a horrible out of tune version of "Barbie girl by Aqua"
Eliot sat down next to Sophie again, with a slight smile, singing alone often got him women.
"Mr Darcy not arrive then?" He queried finishing the drink he had left on the bar before he went to sing
"No, looks like I will have to settle for you" She replied slightly more shirty than she intended, covering the shock of how good his singing had been
"Not for much longer," He replied "Earlier morning" She noticed that he was finishing his drink, and looked to be leaving. He moved really close to her, she could smell his after shave, and feel his stubble as he pressed up close to her to whisper into her ear "you can always join me", her heart missed a beat, and she started to get more annoyed with herself, men never had this effect on her. He got off his stool, she downed her drink and followed him out of the bar, noticing how the bar tender gave him a sly wink. Once outside the pub he whipped around pushed her against the wall and kissed her, she was slightly shocked, but reacted to kiss him back, fighting to taste him, forcing her tongue into his mouth, grabbing at his hair, and pulling him towards her. His hands moved in her hair, softly moving, although there was passion he was more tender than she expected from him. Her urge to touch his body and seeing if it was as good as it looked, was taking over her and she squeezed his bum, he pulled back and broke off the kiss, smiling at her.
"Let's take this somewhere more private", she nodded unable to speak while she caught her breath, and followed him to his motel room which was luckily next to the pub
"Your choice," he whispered to Sophie in his sexy husky tones, she paused and he pulled away from her shaking his head "if you change your mind you know my name now so you can look me up" and he turned and walked away, leaving Sophie stood in the hallway with memories to keep her company and very confused feeling about Nate Ford her what if guy and the handsome elusive, Eliot Spencer.
The End
