Clare's POV:

I took the black ruffled lingerie and matching boy shorts from my Fredrick's of Hollywood bag and carefully packed them in my silver suite case. I grabbed my hair curler and threw it in before I zipped up my bag. Perfect.

I went to my closet and grabbed my short, strapless black dress that Eli adores. I smiled at the thought of him and grabbed my cell phone.

I threw the dress on my bed as I composed a text. Eli always got nervous before gigs, though I don't know why, everyone loves him and he's really good.

I wanted him to know that I supported him though, so I texted him:

Hey baby, I know your nervous, so don't worry about text me back, but listen up Eli.

You are amazing, you are going to do fantastic okay? I love you, and I'll be front row screaming my ass off for you. I love you Eli. Now take a deep breath, you're going to be great- C

I sent the text.

I unzipped the dress and stepped inside of it before pulling it up and re-zipping it.

I checked the clock and realized I was running out of time. Quickly, I shimmied out of my current panties and put on a sexier black pair, though I would be changing anyway.

I applied some eye makeup and swiped the mascara wand quickly before slipping into the sexy red high heels Eli asked me to wear. I looked in the mirror and smiled. Absolutely perfect.

Eli's POV:

"Breath, dude, breath." Drew, our drummer, was trying to calm me down before we went out. I always had really bad anxiety before we went out, but who could blame me, I was the lead singer.

Save, our guitar player, came up to me, holding my phone. He looked at Drew, "He's still freaked?"

Drew nodded, "Yeah, where's Adam?"

Sav rolled his eyes, "Where he always is, late."

Drew groaned, "Shit."

I sighed, "Maybe we should just cancel tonight, I mean A-Adam isn't even here and we can't go on without a base…right?"

Drew smacked the backside of my head, "Get it together man, we have done this a million times and we are doing it tonight!"

I took a deep breath and Sav handed me my phone, "Here, Clare texted you."

I smiled wide, "Give it!"

Sav gave me the phone and I ignored the texts from Julie, a few fan girls, and my mom, and I opened the one from Clare:

Hey baby, I know your nervous, so don't worry about text me back, but listen up Eli.

You are amazing, you are going to do fantastic okay? I love you, and I'll be front row screaming my ass off for you. I love you Eli. Now take a deep breath, you're going to be great- C

I bit my bottom lip to hold in the biggest grin as I read it. Adam walked inside, "Sorry I'm late."

We all rolled our eyes and I took a deep breath, "Alright, I'm ready, let's do this…"

Clare's POV:

"Clare bear!" Alli came over and met me at the door of the hotel, "I am so glad you came! I did not want to be alone. Hey why do you have an overnight bag?"

Eli asked me to take my bag up to the desk and say to leave it under Elijah. He did not want us to go up to the room together and get caught. Even though Alli was one of my good friends, I could not tell her about Eli, not yet.

I made up a lie, "It's just some stuff Eli wanted me to bring for him and the band."

Alli nodded, "Well can we ditch it, it will impair our dancing."

I giggled, "Yeah, Eli just told me to leave it at the front desk."

We walked up to the desk and I spoke to the women, "I need to leave this bag for Elijah?" I asked hesitantly.

The lady smiled, "Oh! Of course! Here, give it to me, I will send it up to his room."

I handed her the bag and smiled, "Thank you."

I walked back to Alli, "Come on, let's go get good seats."

Eli's POV:

"Hello Harris Hotel!" I screamed as we came on stage.

The crowd went wild and I started to get that performance adrenaline. I smiled wide at the blue eyed beauty in the front row in the short black dress.

"How are you guys doing tonight!" I screamed.

Again, everyone screamed. I looked directly at Clare and she giggled and mouth at me, "I love you."

I stuck my hand out and pressed it on my heart, hoping she saw I loved her too. I spoke into the microphone, "Alright you guys, I am going to put on the best show I can. But first I have to tell my muse, she knows who she is, that I love her with all my heart and this is all for her."

Clare blushed, and Julie was nowhere to be found, I don't even think she came. Some girlfriend she is…

That night I put my all in the show. I danced all the ways Clare likes. I sung and screamed my heart out, to her. And when the show was over, she was blushing the perfect pink blush I love.

I said one final thing to the audience, "Thank you guys for coming out, you have been a great crowd! I love you and goodnight!"

Then we walked off the stage and I went to go find a man. I found a guy dressed in the hotel uniform, "Sir!" I shouted.

He turned to me, "Elijah! Great show, you were fantastic."

I smiled, "Thank you. I was wondering if you could do me a favor." I asked.

He smiled, "Of course sir, what can I do for you?"

I pointed over at Clare as she talked with Alli over a few shots, "Do you see that beautiful blue eyed girl right there?"

~ # ~ # ~ # ~ # ~ # ~ # ~ # ~ # ~ # ~

Clare's POV:

I was taking shots out of a slender clear glass when one of the hotel workers came up to me, "Are you Clare?"

I nodded, "Yes?"

The man looked at Alli, "I need to speak with you"

Alli shook her head, but I nodded, "I'll see you later Alli."

She sighed, "Alright, I am going to go find those Torres boys." And she disappeared.

The employee smiled at me, "Miss Edwards, it is Mr. Elijah's wish that you do not drink anymore tonight, he wants your undivided attention. And he wishes for me to send you up now and to give you this." The man hands me a single blue rose twisted with a dark green rose. I blushed and then he handed me a velvet box, "He wishes you open this."

I smiled, "Thank you." I opened the box and there was a room key. The man spoke once more, "He wishes you there right now, room 303."

The smiled at me and walked away.

~ # ~ # ~ # ~ # ~ # ~ # ~ # ~

I made my way up to the room and slid my key into the lock. I could not believe Eli did all of this for me tonight. I could not wait it kiss him all over.

I unlocked the door and entered the room.

I gasped. Eli had truly out done himself.

The room was lit with just candles. Soft music played in the back ground, but it was not a CD. I walked over the bed and sat down next to Eli as he played his guitar and sang:

A/N: I do not own this song, I'll Follow You Into The Dark- Death Cab for Cutie

Love of mine some day you will die

But I'll be close behind

I'll follow you into the dark

No blinding light or tunnels to gates of white

Just our hands clasped so tight

Waiting for the hint of a spark

If heaven and hell decide

That they both are satisfied

Illuminate the no's on their vacancy signs

If there's no one beside you

When your soul embarks

Then I'll follow you into the dark

In Catholic school as vicious as Roman rule

I got my knuckles bruised by a lady in black

And I held my tongue as she told me

"Son fear is the heart of love"

So I never went back

If heaven and hell decide

That they both are satisfied

Illuminate the no's on their vacancy signs

If there's no one beside you

When your soul embarks

Then I'll follow you into the dark

You and me have seen everything to see

From Bangkok to Calgary

And the soles of your shoes are all worn down

The time for sleep is now

It's nothing to cry about

Cause we'll hold each other soon

The blackest of rooms

If heaven and hell decide

That they both are satisfied

Illuminate the no's on their vacancy signs

If there's no one beside you

When your soul embarks

Then I'll follow you into the dark

Then I'll follow you into the dark

I smiled as Eli trailed off, "And I'll follow you into the dark…"

"Oh Eli…" He put his old acoustic guitar down and I wrapped my arms around him and buried my face in his neck.

He held my waist tightly, "Clare?"

I pulled from the embrace and Eli gripped my hands, "Clare Edwards. I have known you for a while now and I have loved you since the day I met you. I never ever thought you would go for a man like me, but you did. I love you, and I am sorry for the way things are now. I promise you I will do my best to love you and to truly show you that."

"Eli…." I cupped his face and brought his lips to mine. Eli wrapped his arms around my neck, but quickly broke away, "Shit, I'm all sweaty, can I go take a shower first?"

He got up, but I grabbed his arm, "No, come here." I patted the bed.

Eli sat down against the headboard and I climbed in his lap. No matter how sweaty he was, he was all mine tonight, he could shower in the morning.

Eli's hands rested on my hips, "Eli. I love you. If I did not love you I would never in a million years be doing this, but I am. And you smell good, you smell manly."

Eli chuckled lightly, "It will only take a minute to shower?"

I shake my head, "No. I want you like you are. And thank you, for earlier, the concert and then the song, I loved it, and I love you."

I squeaked as Eli grabbed my waist and flipped us over so he was on top, "You my dear asking for trouble…"

I blushed, "I like trouble, it brought us together."

Eli smirked, "I like you."

"Well I love you." I retaliated.

Eli pressed his lips against mine, "And I love you."

Eli's POV:

Clare was very eager tonight. I was too, but I did not want to show it. It had been a while since the last time I made love to her.

I began to kiss down Clare's neck as she laced her hands in my hair. I was getting down her cleavage when she pushed me off of her, "Wait! I have a surprise for you!"

"What?" I asked as she ran from the bed.

She started looking around, "Where is my bag?"

I got out of the bed and pulled it from the closet, "Here."

She took the bag from me and disappeared into the bathroom.

~ # ~ # ~ # ~ # ~# ~ # ~ # ~ # ~

Clare came out from the bathroom and blushed. I looked her up and down and smiled wide. She was wearing a black lingerie top with ruffles by her breasts and ruffle panties. She looked amazing.

"Clare…." I smiled.

She giggled, "Do you like it?"

I nodded, "You have looked amazing all night, now especially."

Clare smiled, "I know you try so hard to make everything special for me, and I just want to do something for you."

I took her hand, "I love it, and now I want to please you my dear."

She walked back to the bed with me and I crawled on top of her.

I went back to kissing her where I left off. I pressed a soft kiss the exposed skin of her cleavage. I reached around her to the ties of her lingerie and I whispered, "As beautiful as you look, may I take this off?"

Clare nodded, "Please…"

I flipped her over under me and pulled at the ties of her lingerie. Once it was off, she turned back over shyly. I slid my hands from her waists to cup her bare breasts. She moaned, "Mm Eli…"

I squeezed her breasts gently. Clare tugged on my hair, letting me know she wanted more. I pinched her nipples between my middle fingers and my thumbs. Clare jerked at my hair, "Oooo!"

I chuckled and sucked on one of her breasts, "E-Eli!" She cried out.

I moved my mouth over to the other one and began to nip at her nipple. Her knee brushed up against my erected length and a moan slipped from my throat, "Clare…"

She blushed, "Eli….please…."

I nodded; I had teased her by not giving her what she wanted for almost a month now. She did not deserve to be teased; I was going to pour my heart and soul into loving her tonight.

I slipped my tongue out from my lips and licked, sucked, and nipped my way down to her abdomen. I nipped at it and chuckled at her twisted moans, "Oh Eli! Please…."

I slipped my fingers in the hem of her lingerie, but she stopped me, "Wait!"

"Yes?" I asked.

She blushed, "You are wearing way too much clothing…"

I smirked, "How naked would you like me Clare?"

Her blush deepened, "Completely…?"

I chuckled and kissed her lips, "Only for you darling."

I stood from the bed and slipped off the vest I was wearing. I pulled off the heavy metal tee shirt I was wearing and got my jeans off quickly. Clare giggled and cheered, "Come on baby take it off!"

I swung my hips a little to please her before she reached over and jerked my boxers down. I blushed as she pulled me back to the bed.

I kissed her lips, then her abdomen before my head slipped between her legs. She blushed a little and I felt her legs close a little. I reached up and held her legs open as I pulled my head up, "Are you okay?"

She blushed, "Sorry, you know I get embarrassed…."

I smiled, "Don't be, you are beautiful. Do you want me to stop?"

She shook her head, "No."

I nodded and brought my head back down, hoping to bring her pleasure.

I slipped a finger inside her and she moaned, "Eli…"

I began to pump that finger as I softly sucked on her clit. I moaned against her and the vibrations made her wriggle in need, "E-Eli!"

I moved my fingers inside her faster, curling and uncurling them. Her hips bucked against my hand, "Please….Eli!" She moaned.

I pulled my fingers out of her and started to move my tongue inside her. Clare's fingers pulled at the roots of my hair, "Eli!"

She came all over my tongue and I gladly licked her remaining fluids. I brought my head back up to kiss her mouth. Clare gladly excepted my kiss and I slipped my tongue into her mouth. Our tongues fought for dominance as needy hands moved all over each other's hot sweaty bodies.

Clare used her legs to flip us over. She kissed my chest and started to suck on my nipples. I moaned and gripped her hips, "Clare…."

She smiled wide and kissed down my chest. I was growing harder by the second. Clare licked my abdomen lightly. I groaned, "Clare…honey…"

She went to grab my dick, but I stopped her, "N-no, I want it to be about you." I flipped us back over, but Clare pouted, "Eli…"

I went to kiss her, but she gave me cheek, "Clare, come on."

She shook her head, "Eli it's been just as long for you as it has been for me….right?" I stopped having sex with Julie months ago so I nodded.

Clare continued, "So please?"

I shook my head, "I just want to pleasure you…"

Clare poked my chest and leaned in really close, "Eli Goldsworthy you either roll back over, open your legs and let me give you the most mind blowing blowjob you have ever had, or I am leaving."

I nodded and smiled at her, flipping back over, "Yes mam."

Clare giggled and let me kiss her lips, "That's better"

Clare's POV:

Eli was stressed. He had had a long week of rehearsal with the concert coming up and all I wanted was to make him feel good.

Slowly, I wrapped my tiny fist around his throbbing member. I began to move my fist up and down. Eli obviously liked it, "Oh Clare…."

I giggled and moved my hand a little faster. Eli's faces were really sexy whenever I did this. He reached up and began to play with my breasts. My toes curled, but I refused to moan, I wanted to give my attention to his cock right now.

I squeezed the pre cum oozing head and Eli groaned, "Damn it Clare…."

I giggled, "Eli…..?"

I squeezed the base as he spoke, "Y-yes?"

I blushed, "Can I go down on you?"

Eli smiled wide, "You don't need my permission Clare, but if you really would like to, I would love that."

I had never really done this before. Well, I tried once, but Eli came right away.

I nervously leaned down and wrapped my lips around him. Eli's breath caught in his throat as I gave a strong suck, "C-Clare!"

I giggled and he moaned slightly. I wondered if he liked the vibration. I started to hum to a tune of one of his songs as I moved my mouth up and down on his throbbing my member. Eli moaned and gripped my hips tightly, "More….please…"

I loved the way he begged for me. I started to stab my tongue in the pre cum coated slit. I took my tongue from that and sucked on his head while squeezing the base with my fist. I felt him grow harder and harder in my hands and I just loved it. I took a little risk at bit down the slightest. Eli shrieked, "Clare!" And he came in my mouth. I wasn't really sure what to do, so I just swallowed the sweet juice. Eli smiled wide, "Clare that was amazing…."

I blushed, "I'm really glad you liked it…"

Eli smiled wide, "Come here, I want to kiss you."

I climbed into Eli's lap and let him kiss me. His lips felt like comfort against mine. I wrapped my arms around his neck and he gently flipped us over. I broke the kiss and whispered in his ear, "Eli…I'm ready…"

Eli kissed me once more and nodded, "Um I have Fire and Ice, Her Pleasure or regular condoms…."

I had never really tried any besides regular, but her pleasure sounded appealing, "Whatever you like is best, I mean you have to wear it…"

Eli chuckled, "Clare it's your choice, what do you want to use?"

I blushed, "Well…..her pleasure sounds nice….but I don't want all the pleasure."

Eli smiles and reaches for the purple condom box, "Clare you deserve all the pleasure, but just being inside you is enough for me."

I nodded, not wanting to protest, "Okay, please just….I want you inside me…."

Eli smiled widely, "As you wish." He rolled the condom on and slipped inside me, "Eli…."

Eli's POV:

Damn it, Clare was killing me tonight…. She looked so sexy and beautiful and she gave me a blowjob and she has just been great all night.

I kissed her lips as I started to move inside her. Clare moaned against my mouth. I pumped in and out of her in a slow rate. We had only done this a few times, so I tried to go easy on her.

Clare's nails began to claw at my back. It hurt like hell, but I let it go.

She bit into my shoulder blade and I eased my strokes, "Am I hurting you?"

She nodded, "It still hurts a little, but I'm okay."

I nodded, "Should I stop and let you adjust?"

She shook her head, "N-no, keep going."

I pressed my lips back against hers and continued to kiss her lips.

After a minute, she moaned, "R-right there…"

I found her G spot. I made my thrusts a little harder as I hit the sweet spot inside her. She gripped my shoulder blades as her hips began to buck, "Oh! Oh! Oh! Eli!"

I groaned as I twisted my hips, "Fuck Clare…"

She wrapped her legs around my waist and allowed me to hit a better angle. Both of us moaned, "Mmmmmm"

"Faster….PLEASE!" She screamed as I thrust hard into her core.

I moved my hips faster at an erratic pace. Clare started to grab for things around her, trying to stabilize herself. I moved my thumb to press against her clit. She screamed, "Eli!"

I whispered in her ear, "Let go Clare."

She did. Clare orgasmed all over my fingers and it was an amazing feeling.

She knew I was not finished so she flipped us over and started riding me with force. It felt incredible!

Clare sat up and waited a few seconds before slamming down hard on my cock. I groaned as I came, "Clare!"

She collapsed next to me and grabbed a tissue. She pulled the condom off of me and threw it in the trash can.

Clare panted heavily and I wrapped my arms around her, bringing her soft naked body as close to me as possible.

Her head landed on my chest with a thud, "Eli…I'm so tired…"

I pushed her bangs from her sweaty for head and began to comb through her hair with my fingers. She did amazing tonight so it made sense she was tired.

I kissed her lips and then both of her plump pink cheeks, "You my little dear were amazing."

Clare smiled, "So were you. I loved that new condom by the way. It felt really good…"

I smiled, "I'll be sure to make this happen more, I promise."

Clare pressed her lips into my chest, "Thank you."

I smiled, "Get some rest, you did amazing and I love you so much. Thank you for being there for me tonight."

Clare smiled contently, "I love you too." She whispered before slipping off to sleep.

I spent that night just raking through her hair with my fingers and kissing her forehead. Sometimes Clare would wake up to pee or ask me for some water or tell me that she loves me, but she would always go back to sleep.

Nothing mattered beside Clare to me. Not the band. Not college. Not anything. Not even Julie, not tonight.

A/N: So….how was it?

Also, my Eli, you know who are, please be on tonight? Yes? Awesome!
