Do I have a treat for you ladies today? Oh boy! Phew!

Chapter 10

Charlie sat on her bed, having just spent a few fun-filled hours with her sister. Even though Ruby had the habit sometimes of speaking before thinking, Charlie loved and admired her for her ability to be mature and intuitive when it mattered. She had taken the news about her and Joey in her stride – her dad and Morag would probably be a different matter. She didn't like the idea of having to tell him. His memory had deteriorated badly over the past few months and she wondered if he would even understand what she was telling him? She tried to push the thought out of her mind. She would worry about that another day – not today.

Joey pulled up outside Leah's house and made her way to the door. Ruby was there to open it for her arrival.

"Hey Joey," she said, grinning. "Come on in. Charlie's in the bathroom finishing off waxing her her legs and her ... you know what ... for your hot date tonight!"

"RUBY!" Charlie scolded, her voice loud and high-pitched, coming all the way from the the other end of the house. "Don't listen to her, Joey ... I'm in the bedroom." She could throttle her sister sometimes!

Joey giggled as she made her way to Charlie's room. She peered in past the open the door. Charlie had her back to her at the mirror. "So ... have you been treating yourself a heart-shaped bikini wax?"

Charlie turned her head around and gave her a look of disapproval, even though she didn't mean it. She smirked and said "Y'know you're just as bad as she is."

Joey was immediately captivated by how beautiful Charlie looked in her outfit. She was wearing a blue sequined halterneck top with a matching skirt. Her skin glowed and her hair shone. Joey watched her for a few moments as she brushed her long, brunette locks in the mirror.

Walking over to her, she slid her arms around her waist and kissed her tenderly on the shoulder. "You look fantastic," she whispered.

Charlie swung around and threw her arms around her. "Thank you. So do you." She meant it. They kissed.

"Ready?" Joey asked.

Charlie looked deep into her eyes and nodded. She reached on top of the bedside table and lifted her purse. Joey took her by the hand and led the way to the car.

"Bye girls," Ruby shouted, waving her arm furiously. "... and in case I don't get the chance to tell you when you get back here later tonight ... keep the noise down, okay?"

Charlie turned back to look at her – her eyes widened to silently berate her younger sibling. Ruby sometimes didn't think enough to control the volume of her voice when she should.

Joey looked back at her, smiled - and winked. They had a secret.

The car pulled into the car park at the arena. Traffic was hectic. They had been stuck in a jam for almost twenty minutes. Crowds of music fans walked past them in all directions. The atmosphere was already electric.

Joey found a place to park, lifted the tickets from the glove compartment and they got out. In the distance they could hear music from the warm-up act. Joey thought they sounded pretty good.

Charlie took Joey's hand in hers as they walked to the entrance. Their closeness would not be an issue in a place like this.

At the doors, they handed over their tickets and received their stubs for keepsakes. Charlie put them into her pocket. They walked into the arena and made their way to the front of the audience. It was surprising easy for them to get there. The main crowd hadn't gathered yet.

"Do you want something to drink?" asked Joey.

"Uh ... yes, please."

"Bottle of beer?"

Charlie smiled. "Perfect."

Joey left her for a few minutes and went to the bar before the crowds made it totally inaccessible. She returned with two bottles in hand. She gave one to Charlie.

"Cheers," Charlie said. They touched their bottles together.

The main attraction were due on stage in under twenty minutes.

The crowd jumped around them to the strains of 'Use Somebody' and they joined in. Caleb Followill's incredible voice rasped the lyrics...

'I've been roaming around .... always looking down .. at all I see'

The music echoed all around the arena.

The Kings of Leon had not disappointed their fans. The concert so far had been an amazing event and Charlie and Joey were having an absolute blast. The fans were fantastic – loaded with energy and adoration for their rock idols.

They were right at the front of the crowd, against the barrier – security guards wandered past every few seconds. Joey stood behind Charlie. She wrapped her arms around her waist and squeezed her tightly. Charlie responded, wrapping her arms backwards and around Joey, her hands resting on her behind. She turned her head to look into Joey's eyes. They gazed at one another amidst all the commotion around them. Their lips drew together slowly and they kissed deeply, not caring who saw them. The moment was just right and they were not going to let it pass.

As they stood, locked in intimacy, the music changed into a new song. The crowd went wild as the guitarist strummed the opening chords to 'Sex on Fire'. Charlie and Joey did not break their embrace, nor did their lips part. Their passion intensified as the revellers around them jumped in unison to the beat of the music.

Joey slid her left hand down over Charlie's thigh, resting on her bare knee. She caressed it before sliding her hand slowly upwards, raising Charlie's skirt with it. Charlie gasped softly. She sensed what was about to happen.

Joey slid her other hand underneath Charlie's top and across her tummy, stroking her soft skin and resting her fingers on her navel. She ran the fingers of her left along the edge of her briefs before slipping them slowly inside. Security guards hovered a few feet in front of them – oblivious to their lovemaking.

Charlie's excitement grew. The highly-charged atmosphere, the danger of being caught and the tender touch of her lover sent waves tingling throughout her body. Joey slid her fingers further down until they became wet – very wet. Charlie gasped, before finding Joey's lips again instantly. She was in ecstasy.

Joey began to please her. Charlie's hands wandered, caressing Joey everywhere she could possibly touch, stretching her arms as far back around her as she possibly could. Caleb screamed the lyrics out - the whole place appeared to be singing along – all except the two of them ...

'YOUUUUU ... your sex is on fire ...'

Charlie and Joey both appreciated the aptness of the lyrics.

The passion between them escalated as Joey intensified her efforts. Charlie felt a weakness in her knees that made her bend her legs – she rocked in time with Joey's movements. Her breathing shortened and became heavy. Nobody around them noticed their not-so-private adventure. From the waist upwards, it seemed as though they were dancing together. The lower half of their bodies told a different story - but their legs were completely obscured by the frantic crowd that engulfed them.

Charlie let go of Joey and placed her hands firmly on the barrier in front of her to steady herself. Out of the corner of her half-closed eyes she saw a hefty security guard glance over at them, before looking away – none the wiser. Joey kissed and gently licked her neck and her shoulder. She could not contain her passion for her, and the excitement of being together like this in such a huge crowd made her deeply aroused. She breathed heavily.

Charlie closed her eyes, allowing her four other senses to become heightened. She was in complete bliss. Nothing like this had ever happened to her before. Joey was such an inventive and spontaneous lover. She felt incredibly lucky to have her.

She felt herself fast approaching orgasm. Her lips searched fervently for Joey's. She wanted to taste her. Their tongues sought one another, tip subtly brushing against tip. Charlie's body tingled and she could feel the sensations intensifying between her legs. They began to perspire, sweat beading all over their skin - both because of their arousal and because of the intense body heat coming from the fans pressing hard against them.

Charlie began to vocalise her pleasure with a procession of moans that became louder and louder. Her noises were drowned out by the crowd - and the Kings. Her body stiffened as she reached the moment of release. She cried out, her voice resounding inside Joey's mouth. Joey rested her fingers on her. She could feel the pulsations continue for several seconds after Charlie's verbal outburst. It made her smile.

Their lips remained locked. Charlie let go of the barrier and wrapped her arms around behind her – embracing Joey tightly.

Joey broke their lips apart. They gazed into one another's eyes.

"Happy birthday," she whispered.

Charlie could barely hear her but she could read her lips easily. She felt the urge to turn around so she could hold her face-to-face. Joey slipped her hands free as Charlie swung around. They wrapped their arms around one another as their lips collided again.
