Sara’s POV
“Boys! So good to see you all again!” An older lady greeted us the moment we got into the restaurant and kissed all the guys on the cheek before she led us to the largest table.

Johnny hadn’t left my side from the moment he laid eyes on me in the office of that Larry guy, but slowly Matt had forced himself to me again. First in the office, he was standing real close to me, too close to my liking. He knew I had absolutely no resistance when it came to him, the only way was to stay away. And he was making that hard on me. The office I could handle, even if it was barely, I knew he wouldn’t try anything, not in front of everyone, not in front of his manager.

But now… Now he had placed himself next to me, squeezing me right in between him and Amy. Johnny was shooting me apologizing looks from across the table, and I rolled my eyes. Johnny was smarter than the others thought and he had one big advantage to every single one of them but Amy, he knew.

“Brian! You know I read all the stuff that is written about my favorite boys, why don’t you introduce me to your wife? I feel a little left out that I didn’t get an invite”
“Neither did his best friends, so don’t feel left out, Darla” Zack put a hand on her arm, before he sat down too.
“Okay, okay, you are forgiven, you know you always have been my big blind spot, but if you don’t introduce me to your wife quickly I will get all the grudges back into place”

Brian smiled widely and motioned Amy to get up. Amy looked a little dazed, but then forced a smile too “Darla, meet my wife, Amy. Amy, this is Darla, she always feeds us when Larry is mad at us”
“Not only when he is mad at you” the woman giggled “Remember I made you boys a feast when you got that first gold record?”

The woman was still babbling, but I couldn’t stay focused on her, Matt’s leg was pushing mine and his arm extended over the back of my chair. Was he making himself even broader then he already was?! I shot him an annoyed look, but all I got back was that sexy dimpled smile. What was it what all those memes online said about the dimples? Poof…. Pregnant? Holy fuck, that man was something else. I couldn’t deal with him, not now, not ever.

I purposely turned to my back to Matt and got Amy’s attention. Brian was holding her hand over the table, a little awkwardly, but I guess they were determined to win the Oscar, huh?
“Amy, are you okay with this?” I whispered to her. She gave me a small smile and then nodded.
“I wasn’t, really… I told him to stick it somewhere dark, but he has been their manager for years for a reason. He knows what to do and he has a valid point.”
“But-“ Amy shook her head when I opened my mouth again.
“Don’t Sara, I’m not getting into this now. I know all the ‘dangers’” she mark the word with her fingers “But there is nothing I can do about it now. You’ve seen the press, you’ve seen the situation I’m in now. It won’t do me any good to get Brian to court screaming and kicking. If I cooperate it’s only a short while before everything can go back to normal”

With that she turned away from me and got a hold of Brian’s hand once more, leaning into him.
“What would you like for lunch, honey? Burgers okay?” Brian spoke to Amy softly, his fingers caressing her cheek. His gesture, his tone, the look in his eyes confused me, if he said she was just a fling, why did he look at her as if he cared about her?

“Do you want to catch a ride with me when we pick up your stuff?” Matt’s whisper was so close to my ear, his breath was tickling my ear and I felt an unwanted shiver come over me. I closed my eyes, trying to calm myself down.

Amy and I definitely had something in common when it came to these guys, just like she had with Brian, my brain refused to work when Matt was close, I was so susceptible for everything he said and did and the worst part of all, he knew it. He knew I would go all in, but somehow he gave me the chance to come to the right decision myself. But soon his patience would be done. Would he give up, or would he push me?

The thought of him giving up on me was clenching my heart. Ah fuck. Make up your damn mind, Sara!
I was just so scared.. scared of letting him in. How could I ever explain to him he would break my heart if I let him any closer, without giving myself away completely?

“Dream on, Matt…. I’m having my last day with Amy today, and tomorrow, I’m moving to a hotel.”
Johnny was opening his mouth, but closed it again when Matt had shot him a look “No Johnny, I’m not staying with you, or with Zack or Arin for that matter, you have wives, I can’t ask them to take me in.”
“That is why my house is perfect, I don’t have a wife anymore, my house is big enough and we already know each other very well” Matt’s deep voice was close to me again.

Please. Stay. Away.

I didn’t react, but tried to focus on the conversation around the table. Johnny jumped right to cater to me “So! Lacey said she couldn’t wait to meet you. She is not a very jealous person, but she want to make sure you really are just a friend or if she has to start worrying” Johnny had a goofy smile on his face as if his wife couldn’t have said something more dumb, which made me laugh loudly. “That stupid woman still doesn’t know there isn’t any one for me but her.”
I put my hand over Johnny’s over the table “I can’t wait to meet her”

The low growl next to me clearly wasn’t meant to be out loud, but I heard it clearly.

Ignoring it. Like anything else that came from him.

The lunch was getting to an end, and everybody was moving to go home. Brian ordered Matt to come with him for a second. They were engaged in a heated discussion in the corner of the room, before they both came back to all of us, storms on their faces. What was going on?

We said our goodbyes on the parkinglot, Zack, Johnny and Arin piling up in Zack’s car, waving at us as they drove off.
“Be there! Johnny’s! 8!” Johnny yelled out of the window, just before they turned around the corner.

I turned around to say goodbye to Matt, but I couldn’t because his arms were wrapping tightly around my waist. It didn’t feel as a caress, or as one of his many ways to seduce me to more, he was holding me to not let me get away. When I saw Brian push Amy to his car I realized what was happening.

“Let go of me!” I fought his grip as I saw my best friend shoot me an apologizing look when she got in the car. I fought even harder when I watched them drive away. I was so damn angry and god, I felt betrayed! What was wrong with Amy?! She didn’t even want her last day with me?
All the fight left my body and I let my limps hang to my body.

“Are you going to be calm if I let go of you?”
I nodded and he let go of me, turning me around
“Amy and Brian need to be together. It’s what Larry’s plan is all about, they need to show the world that they are a solid couple. Then when no one pays attention anymore, they can get divorced and no one will even care.” He unlocked his car and opened the passenger door.
“Come on, you will like it at my house, I promise”

“Please just drop me off at a hotel, Matt, I really don’t feel like doing this now” I buckled up and gazed out of the window. I got it, sure, I wasn’t stupid, but why didn’t Amy just talk to me that she wanted to do it like this?

Because you have only had your own plan in mind this whole time

I sighed. Now this whole situation didn’t only make me puddy at the mercy of this man, but also a bad best friend… This situation was getting more and more fucked and if I didn’t get to a hotel soon, away from Matt… it would be in more than one.

Brian’s POV
“I want you to stay together, you are the happy married couple, you will live with Brian for the time being and you will show yourself in the open, you will be the happy newlyweds family Haner that we saw on the pictures.”

He couldn´t possibly have said what I thought he said, I must have heard incorrectly. Did her really want Amy and me to stay together? I opened my mouth to ask him to repeat it again when Amy spoke up, her voice was soft but threatening.

“I came here, put my life on hold, because you, Mr. Manager would know the solution. This is not a solution. This is called lingering in a situation that nobody wants. I was told I would get a quick divorce, and in case you didn’t catch up on it… this isn’t heading for a quick and silent divorce”

Amy folded her arms over her chest and lifted her chin up, defying Larry. I couldn’t suppress a grin and could barely hold myself for jumping her. She was amazing! This was a whole other side of her that she didn’t show very often and damn, I loved it. It was amazing how she stood up for herself, not matter who send her the message. I turned to her to watch her with a smile, but Amy had no attention for me, she was staring Larry down.

Larry scraped his throat and forced a smile. His annoyance was showing in his eyes though, I had been on the receiving end of that look too many times to not recognize it. I was curious how he would handle this, because the screaming ways he used on me… there was no way he could do that to Amy right now.

“Mrs. Haner” a teasing look came over Larry’s face when he said the name, and then he continued “This IS the best plan. Everything will calm down, there will be no attention for you anymore and then you can have your silent divorce. No problem at all. But it will take at least 3 month time investment from you. And then… you can go back to your oh so important life”

Amy looked at him baffled, as if he was crazy. “But-“
“No buts, there is no other way, believe me. I’ve thought about this long and hard and this is the way I can fix it best for all of you”. Amy seemed to think about it for a minute and then nodded.
“Fine, but I won’t attend every red carpet event that will come by. I’m not comfortable with that!”

I finally couldn’t hold myself anymore and grabbed her had “Don’t worry. I’m never present at those kind of things, I will not start today”

“Brian?” Amy got me out of my flashback haze. Larry had a discussed a few more things with us, but the bottom line was simple. We had to act the part, we had to be the couple instead of playing it, and there was no other way. We had to swallow this solution until we could get it solved.

I felt Amy’s hand on my thigh and I briefly looked at her before I looked back at the road “Can you please turn around? I can’t leave Sara like that.”
“She will be fine, she is not alone, Matt will take care of her”
“That is exactly the problem” she muttered before staring back out of the window again.

Everyone was leaving Larry’s office after he told all of us about his plans with Amy and me, but Amy was lingering. Did she have something more to say? I immediately started my husband duties by staying with her until everyone had left and it was just the three of us.

“Yes? You guys wanted anything else? I think I told you everything that was important.”
Her eyes were full of fire, and I couldn’t think of any moment I had seen her more beautiful than now. I automatically grabbed her hand, wanting to put a claim on her, no matter what she would say in a minute.

“That joke you pulled in there. You are not going to do that again, or I will be back in Phoenix before you can even blink your eyes. You could have told me you would force Sara to leave Brian’s house, but you chose to spring it on not only her, but also me, in front of everyone.” I had thought it was a very good idea, but I definitely wasn’t telling Amy that right now. I would be at her side, us against all the bads in the outside world. So I was keeping my mouth shot.

“I won’t do it again, but please step out now and act the part, I need to get some nice publicity going for you two.”

And with that, we were dismissed.

“You seem very distant” Amy had to get me out of my head another time and I was happy we were almost at my home. I needed to clear my head. I grabbed her hand and squeezed it gently.
“I’m sorry, I’m just trying to wrap my head around everything.” Amy just nodded “I’m sorry about Sara, but there was no other way, you know that”
Amy sighed “I would have asked her to leave, Brian, you have to trust me, or this won’t work”
“I know”

Truth was, I could have done a little dance of happiness. I wanted Sara out of my house for several reasons, the biggest one would be that I would finally be alone with her, doing with her what I wanted to do, and not be confronted with an Amy that was holding back because her best friend was telling her so. A nice plus would be that Matt maybe got a little more relaxed once he finally got his hands on Sara again.

We pulled up my drive way and I turned down the car. I would finally do this right, the way it should have been when she came home with me for the first time. I turned to her “Do you trust me?”
She looked at me confused, but then nodded.
“Okay, stay there”

I rushed around the car and helped her out. As soon as she was on her feet, I took her off again. I lifted her in my arms, and carried her over the threshold of my house.
“That’s how it was supposed to be” Amy gasped and then let out a small giggle, Oh my god, she was so cute. I couldn’t hold it anymore, I just bend down to kiss her, wondering if she would push me away, but there was no resistance at all, just her mouth on mine, a kiss that was so familiar, so calm, so natural, so incredibly Amy and Brian.

Finally.

I put her down, but immediately pulled her to my body again.
“Come on, I want to show you something”

Amy and I walked over to my music room, the room I had so purposely skipped yesterday when Sara was here. Before I opened the door, I turned Amy towards me.
“This is one of the two most important rooms in the house…. The other one I’m going to show you later on, but for now I really want you to see this one, because it means everything to me. I felt the heat on my cheeks, but Amy just smiled and put her cold hand to my hot cheek.
“Okay, show me the way, Mr. Haner”

I let Amy enter the room first and followed after her quickly, closing the door behind us. She was walking around, gently brushing her fingers over the different instruments that were in the room. The kindness she treated my instruments with, squeezed my heart in joy and made my cock twitch in attention.

“This is so beautiful Brian, you must be here all the time” she smiled at me “Why didn’t you show me yesterday, this is so important to you!”
“I wanted to show you when we were alone, so here we are… alone” The sentence entered in a whisper, as I felt the tension between us build, once again.

Amy took one step forward, so did I and before I knew it, we were in a heated kiss.
“Shit Brian, I can’t stay away from you” she panted as soon as our kiss broke for just a short while.
“Then don’t” I caressed her cheek and let my hands slowly wander to her neck, right to the buttons of her shirt, opening them one by one, kissing the way I just freed of fabric.

“I don’t think-“
“Don’t think” I kissed her mouth, keeping her from saying anything else. There was no time to over think everything before it even started. I needed her so badly, I needed to touch her, I couldn’t wait anymore.

Her shirt was hanging open now and I moved to her pants, opening the button before I looked at her “Is this okay? I know I need you, but if you tell me to back away now, I will… it would be very hard, but I will”
She didn’t hesitate, removed my shirt and put her arms around my neck to pull me down in a very hot kiss.

That was the launch of everything. Before I knew it, we were both naked and lying on the floor of my music room. I caressed Amy’s face as I slowly entered her, my own lust reflected in her eyes. There was more, I felt so much more, but nothing I could put to words. The most beautiful guitars around me, a sexy piano, but there was nothing that came even close to that amazing woman underneath me.

Our horizontal dance was slow, but tension was building to climax soon. With her orgasm she pulled me with her, making me come too.

It had been too long, too long since I felt her in the most intimate way, since I felt like she was completely mine. And right now… she was… she definitely was.
