Lady in Red Pt. 02 Ch. 04

"Okay," responded Gwen with a wicked smile. "I'll just sit on Jared's lap while we wait for you to regain control. You don't mind, do you, Jared?"

As she spoke, Gwen rose from her seat next to Steve and sat down carefully on Jared's lap. By doing so, her breasts were well above the water level. Billy groaned as he watched the water drip from her nipples. Jared sat very still while looking at Steve with a sheepish grin. The contrast between Jared's dark shin and Gwen's light complexion was stark and quite erotic.

"Jared! Keep your hands above the water and to yourself!" insisted Gwen sternly. "Oh, they are above the water. What's that poking me if your hands are on the rim of the tub?"

Jared rolled his eyes and groaned as the others broke into laughter. Steve decided to play Gwen's game. He slowly stood up and headed for the far side of the tub.

"Sweet Jesus!" gasped Charlotte.

Steve pretended to be confused as he turned fully toward Charlotte and Billy. "What was that, Charlotte? Did you say something?"

"Get that damn thing out of our faces!" demanded Billy. "Charlotte shouldn't be exposed to things like that. She'll be asking why mine isn't as little and cute as yours."

Steve chuckled as he resumed his march to Naomi's side. Naomi was holding her hand over her face as she tried to conceal a huge grin. As Steve got closer, she untied the knot in her towel and let it drop to the floor. Then she embraced Steve in a long hug.

"I've dreamed of this more times than I'd want to admit," whispered Naomi so only Steve could hear her. "Walk me back with my boobs pressed against your chest so they can't see them, okay?"

Steve nodded slightly and took Naomi's hand in his, much like if they were dancing. He waltzed her over to the tub with her breasts pressed tightly to his chest. When they reached Steve's seat, he sat down with Naomi on his lap. To her surprise, Steve maintained his grip on her hands so she was unable to cover her chest in any way. She squirmed for a few seconds, then sighed, quit struggling, and pulled her shoulders back proudly.

"Wow! I think they're bigger than Gwen's," blurted Billy. "No offense, Gwen!"

As Gwen sat on Jared's lap, she slowly looked Naomi up and down. "You have some nerve sitting naked on my boyfriend's lap with those big boobs sticking out like that. Tell me, Steve. Is her ass bigger than you can hold comfortably? It must be some shock after being used to my little tush. Those breasts are too big, don't you guys think? How about it, Billy? Are they too big? Jason? Charlie? Jared? Help me out here."

"Like I said, they're big, but I wouldn't say they're too big," replied Billy with a huge grin. "It's hard to judge just by looking..."

"But that's all you're going to be doing!" interrupted Charlotte. "We're living Billy's fantasy right now. He's such a boob man. Luckily the other guys here aren't impressed with Naomi's big hooters. They're not saying a word."

"Somehow, it seems like a good time to keep my mouth shut," answered Charlie as he openly admired Naomi's chest. "Once I pick my jaw up off my knees, I'll keep it closed."

"Gwen and I have had several discussions about all of you lately," began Steve as he carefully wrapped his arms around Naomi's stomach and hugged her gently. "We feel extremely attached to all of you, for a variety of very good reasons. Sitting here like this is a sign of how highly we regard you. Gwen and I are totally monogamous and hope the rest of you are as well. But that's your personal business.

"It's our hope that all of you will always be part of our extended family. We've had some amazing things happen over the last year and a half. We need friends, good friends, which we can share our lives with. You can help us celebrate the happy times, weather the bad times, and keep us from becoming pompous posers. If we're acting like jerks, it's your duty as friends to tell us.

"This hot tub thing is an example of how much we trust each other. I Love all of these girls, but Gwen is the only one I will ever have sex with. I promise that. I feel us guys are brothers. Brothers don't harm brother's girlfriends and wives. Consider each of these ladies that is not your girlfriend to be your sister. That we can share times like this and not be jealous or fearful, demonstrates how well all of us along, and how much we trust each other. We want all of you to be our friends for life. We'll always have each others' backs."

"That isn't exactly true about the jealousy thing," quipped Lisa. "I'm kind of jealous of Naomi's boobs. It's amazing how they defy gravity. Other than that, Jason and I are with you all the way. I've told him about our little talk after they brought you back from that blizzard. He understands how much we love each other, but that it will never be sexual. I'm very happy to have Jason as my lover and the rest of you men as brothers."

"That goes for us, too," agreed Jordan. "Charlie and I love Steve and Gwen to pieces. They've done so much for us and we appreciate it all, but I'm a one man woman now, and forever, and Charlie is that man."

"Billy and I are just grateful to have such amazing friends. We're committed to each other and hope to always be close to Gwen and Steve and the rest of you. I think this is going to work out great for all of us. We'll be a big extended family that works, travels, and even vacations together. Deal us in!" concluded Charlotte.

"Naomi and I are just getting to know each other, but speaking for myself, you guys are the best. I'll hang with you as long as you'll have me. I'll expect more group meetings like this. You may have guessed that Gwen sitting on my lap like this is a fantasy come true. I'll take a bullet for you, anytime!" promised Jared as he carefully hugged Gwen.

"That leaves me. I'd be absolutely delighted to always be good friends with Steve and his big assed girlfriend," observed Naomi as her friends all broke into laughter at her comment. "Seriously, I understand what's being said here. Gwen and Steve are committed to each other. I can deal with that, especially if I can hang around with all of you. I plan on a career in the Navy, but I should have vacations and other free time. I like Jared, but we won't be sleeping together tonight. I hope that isn't a problem. I'm just not going to rush into something that's so important to me."

"No problem here," grinned Jared as he began bouncing Gwen on his knee. After two bounces, her breasts were swinging freely. Once again, Billy moaned.

"Okay! You've pushed your luck too far!" squealed Gwen as she slid off Jared's lap and dropped into the water near Steve. "I suggest we dry off and go to bed. Who's going to be the first one out?"

"That would be me," responded Charlotte as she stood and slowly made her way out of the tub. "I can't tell you how good it makes me feel to have you men watch me like that. You have beautiful, big breasted girlfriends, yet you're all watching me. It's empowering!"

Everyone was up early the next day. They cleaned up the cabin and rode back to the park. There were still a good number of bikers at the park, having spent the night in tents and sleeping bags. They were packing their gear away when Charlie led his friends into the park.

"Mom texted me," announced Gwen. "It seems that she's been flooded with requests from small towns between here and the capital. They'd like us to ride through their towns as part of their July 4th celebration. Some of the guys that work for us have put together an itinerary and schedule for us to follow. Mom assured them that we'd be happy to accommodate these people as much as possible.

"We need to ride down the main street of Finchburg at 8 AM. It's about twenty miles away and we have over half an hour to get there. I'll forward everything to your phone, Jordan, so you can keep Charlie on schedule. We'll be following your lead. This is Independence Day! Let's ride. We have a show to do tonight!"

It took a few minutes to get everyone prepared and filled in on the planned route, but Charlie pulled out of the park with time to spare. He planned their arrival perfectly and hit the end of Main Street at precisely 8 AM. The girls waved and called to bystanders as the bikes slowly proceeded through the small town.

Steve marveled at the enthusiasm displayed by the surprising large crowd. People waved flags and applauded as the long line of motorcycles made its way down the street. At the end of the town was a small veteran's memorial park with several plaques commemorating sacrifices that local service men and women had made. Jordan had Charlie stop as they were passing the flag pole with Old Glory flying proudly in the breeze.

Jordan signaled to Gwen to join her as Charlie motioned for the other bikers to gather around. Within minutes, all engines were cut and the locals began streaming up the street to find out why the group had stopped.

Gwen and Jordan waited a few more minutes for many of the residents of the area to reach the memorial, and then they began singing the Star Spangled Banner. Anyone wearing a hat immediately whipped it off and placed it over their hearts. The girls sang beautifully and those watching and listening clapped and yelled their appreciation as they ended their song. Jordan ran back to Charlie and climbed on the back of his bike while Gwen did the same with Steve. Once again, they were on the road!

It was a long and emotional day for the friends. They were overwhelmed by the spirit, enthusiasm, and appreciation of the people in the many towns they visited. In many of the towns, Jordan and Gwen took the time to perform the national anthem. Huge crowds would be standing near an American Flag, waiting for the girls to stop and perform. The cheers and applause were always loud and long.

When they pulled into the town of Hazlewood, there were vendors selling hotdogs, hamburgers, and numerous snacks. They knew that Jordan's riders would be coming through around one o'clock and had all kinds of food cooked and ready to eat. They had a large sign made and held it for the group to see. Jordan immediately had Charlie pull in. She ran up to one of the men holding the sign and spoke to him briefly. Then she handed the man a card and went to the people dishing out the food.

"It's all taken care," called Jordan as she squirted ketchup on a big burger. "They'll send us a bill. Everyone riding with us eats for free!"

It took a while for the few hundred riders to get their burgers and/or hotdogs and drinks. "That church group was raising money for a family with a child that needs a kidney. All profits go toward helping the little boy. I think our company will send something extra in the check when we pay the bill," whispered Gwen into Steve's ear as they rode away. "I'm so proud of Jordan and how she's just shining so brightly on this incredible weekend. She's really come a long way!"

By the time the procession pulled into the football stadium parking lot, the number of bikers following them had again swollen. There was a section cordoned off for motorcycles, so Charlie swung into a parking spot in that area. It was six PM and the show was scheduled to begin at seven.

The Lady in Red Productions crew had a large stage set up in the center of the field. The band equipment was in place and sound system was ready to go. A short time later, Steve and Charlie were waiting for the girls to emerge from a trailer brought in for them to use to prepare for the show when Ted, Paula, and Kate approached them.

"You guys have done it again," marveled Paula as she hugged Charlie and then Steve. "I've had requests from politicians and corporate big wigs wanting to get in on this show tonight. That motorcycle ride to help find those kids was a stroke of genius. Then the ride back with all of those stops, and singing the Star Spangled Banner was brilliant. I saw a spot on a cable channel where you bought out all the food prepared by a church group to help raise money for a child with serious kidney problems. I know how kind and generous you all are, yet this still amazes me. Now you're donating your time, talent, and money to help a start-up charity that assists veterans.

"The entire country has been following your 'ride for pride', finding those lost children, and the free concerts you're giving. CBC is setting up equipment to broadcast the show. Jordan and Gwen suggested that the proceeds be donated to this veteran's group doing such good work here. Are you okay with that?" questioned Paula. "They'll get the initial payment, but the residuals will still be paid to the company. Judging from past performances, we'll still pull in enough money in the next couple years to cover all the money you've given away this weekend."

Charlie and Steve immediately agreed with the girls' stated desire to donate the CBC payment to the group helping veterans in the area. A few minutes later, the girls emerged from the trailer, dressed in skin tight leather outfits. Jordan's outfit was black, while Gwen's was a dark red. Jordan wore a short skirt and a bustier like top, held up with a small strap around her neck to prevent any wardrobe malfunctions. Gwen had on long pants and a top that plunged to her navel. A small chain held the two sides together at her bust line.

By the time they took the stage, the stadium was filled. Veterans were allowed to bring in lawn chairs and sit on the field in front of the stage. There were men and women of all ages and walks of life, sharing the moment, as well as the pride of having served their country.

The show began with Jordan and Gwen singing the Star Spangled Banner. As they finished, the crowd roared its approval. Then Jordan stepped to the front of the stage, pointed to, and addressed the veterans. "We're dedicating this show to you folks tonight. Thanks so much for your service to the country!"

Then Jordan sang "Wind Beneath My Wings' while looking over the misty eyed vets in front of her. When the applause for her song died down, Gwen came forward and delivered 'I Need a Hero', and the crowd ate it up. Steve selected the Lee Greenwood song, 'Proud to be an American' next and more than a few people had to wipe tears from their eyes by the time he finished.

Gwen next delighted the audience with Tom Petty's 'I won't Back Down' before Jordan once again stepped to the front. The almost full moon was climbing over the horizon as she sang 'Stand By Me' for the second night. Although it seemed impossible, she gave the song more emotion and feeling than she had the previous night. All of the songs were appreciated, especially by the veterans, but Jordan's rendition of 'Stand By Me' really connected with them.

Once the cheering diminished, the band began its usual opening number with Queen's 'We Will Rock You' with 'We Are the Champions'. Jordan played the piano and backed up Gwen while Steve and Charlie played guitar and moved around the stage. Gwen had become more comfortable with her role of singing lead on nearly half the songs they played. She wore her microphone, which allowed her the freedom to use the entire stage.

The group played all of their hits from their movie and videos. Steve and Jordan delighted the audience by singing their hit duet from the previous year. Jordan sang 'Half-hearted' to the delight of the huge crowd. Steve and Gwen delivered "Glory of Love'. Gwen followed it with 'Midnight Lights'. All of their songs were very well received, but none seemed to create the emotion of Jordan's 'Stand By Me', at least not until late in the show.

The drummer began the lead in, while Steve and Charlie strutted the stage playing guitar, waiting for Gwen to sing. Gwen pranced to the front and began singing 'I Hate Myself for Loving You'. Quite a few of those in attendance had seen her perform it the night before and had told others to watch for it. Charlie and Steve played to the audience and along with Jordan, sang back-up to Gwen. Everyone was on their feet and yelling their approval as the song ended. While taking a few extra bows, Jordan whispered to Gwen that she may well have found her next single.

"So Jordan Quick came up with the idea, after all? That's a cool story. Everything you and Gwen Anderson and Jordan Quick do makes news and helps people. How did you pick Gwen over Jordan?" asked the inquisitive teen as she brushed a fly off her cheek.

"It isn't as if I had a choice or anything. I fell in love with Gwen. I met Jordan a few months later. Gwen's always been the one for me. Jordan has a really good guy in Charlie and she's very happy," replied Steve. "Now you need to go to sleep. We'll begin traveling again before dark, so get some rest.

Steve managed to stay awake long enough to feel Roxie move his hand down and place it on her chest. He had awakened the last couple days with a small breast in his hand and had wondered if he had lost control. He considered chastising Roxie, but decided that it wasn't a big deal and if it helped her relax, he'd continue to pretend he had no idea what was going on. At least she was behaving herself when they were all awake.

Steve woke suddenly, unsure of what had alarmed him. He remained very still, keeping his breathing slow and measured as he opened one eye slightly. He saw two heavily armed men standing at the edge of the clearing. They had several rifles slung across their backs, and a couple of boxes in their arms. They were staring at Steve and the two girls as they lay in the shade.

Steve knew his right hand was on Roxie's chest, but his left one was wedged between Sam's leg and his hip. He slowly slid his hand down a short ways until his hand came in contact with the butt of a pistol. Once he felt his fingers wrap around the gun, Steve felt far more comfortable. He knew what he could do with a pistol at such short range. If either of the two men made an aggressive move, he could kill them both in seconds. What worried him now was whether the two men had any comrades with them that Steve could not see.

One of the men took a step toward Steve and the sleeping girls. Steve felt he no longer had the luxury of waiting to find out if they were others with the two men. He sat up quickly and brought his gun around as his finger tightened on the trigger.
