Sheet Music - A Rock 'n' Roll Love Story

“How true.  And you can rest assured he will be watching your ass!”

Brian heard the crunch of tires in the driveway outside the kitchen window and smiled like the Grinch that stole Christmas.  As if on cue, when the latch of the door gave-way, he grabbed Annie’s hand and tugged her onto his lap.  Then he planted a hard kiss on her mouth.  Michael slammed the bag of groceries down onto the table in front of them.

“Oh, sorry, Mike.  We didn’t hear you come in,” Brian chuckled, releasing his lip lock on Annie.

“Don’t push your luck,” Michael replied, putting some things into the refrigerator.

Barbara returned from the spare bedroom and walked toward the open door to the deck.  The view took her breath away and she sighed heavily, stepping out into the sunshine.  Brian followed her.

“So, this is what’s kept you away from human civilization?” Brian asked.

“Yep, you could say that,” Michael answered.

“How close is your nearest neighbor?” Barbara asked, her eyes panning the entire length of the horizon.

“About a mile down the dirt road you came in on.”

“No shit,” Brian exhaled, as a sly grin began to form on his face.  “And no one knows you’re out here?”

“Nope.”

Brian glanced toward Barbara, his mouth curled into a devious leer.  “Know what I’m thinking?”

Barbara nodded and in the blink of an eye, they had both stripped naked and were running full throttle over the sand and into the ocean.  From the safety of the deck, Annie stood in shock from what she had just witnessed.  Michael was applauding loudly and whistling his appreciation to the show.

“What’s the matter?” he asked her, taking his eyes off the two heads bobbing in the surf.

“I just saw Brian Lofgren running naked into the ocean with his wife!”

Michael laughed at her.  “Don’t tell me you’re still star-struck when you see him?  He’s nothing more than your normal, run-of-the-mill asshole, just like all the other assholes that roam this earth freely.”

Annie turned toward Michael and grinned.  “There is absolutely nothing normal about Brian.”

Her comment caused him to rip into hysterics.  “Okay, you’re right.  So, he’s not normal but he is just a guy.”

“Hey,” Brian screamed at them from the water.  “Are you two going to stand there and watch or are you going to join us?”

Michael’s eyes drifted toward Annie.  “It’s your call, babe,” he shrugged.  Annie clenched her fists into tight balls.  The adrenaline flooded through her veins.  Then a nervous smile formed on her face.

“Feel like living on the edge?” he asked, as if presenting her with a challenge.

Annie contemplated her decision for a few minutes with her eyes squeezed shut.  Then in a flash she was off and running.

“Oh, my God!  I can’t believe I’m doing this,” she yelled, as she jumped off the wooden deck and into the sand.  With every stride she took, she peeled off another article of clothing.  By the time she splashed into the waves, she was naked.  Michael reached her side quickly, his all-over body tan on full display.  His arms encircled her with a slippery hug and a wet kiss.  She could feel his erection rubbing up against her in the surf.

“What are you doing?” she questioned, squirming against him in protest.

He kissed her intimately.  “Same thing they’re doing.”

Annie turned her head toward Brian and Barbara.  As each new wave lifted their bodies with the incoming tide, she could clearly see Barbara’s legs wrapped tightly around Brian’s narrow waist.  The look on both their faces told the rest of the story, as they bobbed together like the cork of a wine bottle.

Annie buried her face in Michael’s wet neck.  “Oh, my God!  They’re doing it right in front of us,” she whispered.

“And that surprises you?” he chuckled.

Annie turned her head and peeked at them again.

“Would you like me to ask them to stop?”

Annie’s mouth came back toward Michael.  Seductively, she dragged the tip of her tongue over his lips.  The salt had never tasted so good.

“Maybe we could finish what we started earlier,” she suggested, hoisting herself up and straddling his hips in the water.

He pulled her tight against his body and smiled broadly.  “Great minds think alike,” he said, quickly entering her.

It didn’t take Annie long to reach the point of no return.  Having Brian and Barbara in the water with them only heightened the experience for her.

“I can’t believe I just did that,” she whispered, out of breath against his neck.

“Hmmm, and so quickly too,” he teased.

“What can I say, you bring out the worst in me,” she defended.

“The worst?  I consider that to be the best!”

A few minutes passed and Brian swam up beside them.  “I’m thirsty.  What do you have to drink around here?”

Annie ran back to the deck first and grabbed a towel to cover herself up with.  While the others dried themselves off, Annie went into the kitchen to make a fresh pitcher of lemonade.  When she returned to the deck they were seated around the table making small talk, with towels loosely draped across their laps.  Annie set the glass pitcher down on the table and handed everyone a cup.
