2. Virginities Lost
Edward held my hand as we drove at his usual blinding speed to Port Angeles. The nicest hotel before Seattle was there I suspected that's where we were headed. Within twenty minutes we were at the exit for Port Angeles. To my astonishment Edward didn't take the exit. He looked over at me and grinned slyly. I let the confusion show on my face. He just smiled bigger. I settled back against the seat and for once didn't care where he took me, we were married and we were going to spend our first night together. My heart picked up speed as I thought of what was to come. Suddenly I pictured myself in my surprise underneath my dress. I flushed at the thought of exposing it. Edward no doubt had noticed the increase in my heart rate. He gave my hand a gentle squeeze and looked over at me.
"Nervous?" he asked, one eyebrow raised.
"Yes, but not about what you think." I teased him. He just smiled and contently went back to driving. After another twenty minutes or so the exit for Seattle was visible. Edward swerved the Volvo slightly over and exited toward the airport. I looked around at my surroundings trying to figure out where we were going. Finally at the next stoplight right across the street from the airport I saw the Hilton. I gasped a little in surprise. He continued to just look over and grin at me, enjoying his surprise. We pulled up at the front of the hotel. Edward got out a smoothly tossed the keys to the valet and opened my door for me. He took my hand and pulled me from the car. I suddenly felt slightly embarrassed that I was walking into a hotel in my wedding dress. People smiled at us and one elderly couple offered their congratulations as we walked hand in hand up to the check in counter.
The woman at the desk looked up at us and nodded to Edward. Without saying a word she handed him a key and motioned to the elevators. He never said a word; he just nodded to the woman and took me to the elevators. When the doors opened and we stepped on he pressed the button for the eleventh floor, all the way to the top. He proceeded to pull a black bandana out of his pocket and fold it into a blindfold. He tied it around my eyes and I couldn't make out any light or shapes.
"Edward I…" I started to protest, I felt a cold finger press to my lips and Edward's velvet voice shushed me. I sighed and let him have his way. I was nervous but more excited about what he had planned. I heard the bell to announce we had arrived at our floor. Edward led me off the elevator and paused. I waited for him to take me down the hall to our room but he just stood there. By then, I was completely and utterly confused. Edward led me a few steps further then and went to stand behind me. He silently took the blindfold from my eyes. When my eyes focused I couldn't contain my reaction.
"Oh my God!" I nearly shouted at him. I stood in the entrance way to the master penthouse suite of the Hilton. Just in front of me there were three steps into a living room adorned with red rose petals covering the floor. The living room alone was bigger than Charlie's entire downstairs combined. To right just inside the living room there was a bar to the left the French doors that led to the balcony overlooking Seattle. Through the other side of the living room I found the door to the bedroom. More petals led me to the king size bed on the wall to my left. To my right another door and path of petals revealed the bathroom. This bathroom was bigger than my bedroom at Charlie's house. An enormous garden tub took up a lot of the space. Double sinks stood next to the walk in shower with clear glass doors. Another path of rose petals led me to another set of French doors out onto another balcony. This balcony held a private Jacuzzi and swimming pool. I turned to face my husband with all my excitement and surprise exploding out of me in the form of my tears.
"Edward, when…Oh my…I can't…" I was speechless; I couldn't form a coherent thought. He just smiled and chuckled at me. He came over and wiped the tears from my face with his thumbs and kissed me deeply.
"Welcome home, my love. Well, for the next three days anyway." I looked up into his topaz eyes flavored by my favorite crooked smile and felt my knees give way beneath me. How did I end up with someone like this in my life? How was I lucky enough to be married to this man? Edward bent his head and kissed me again holding me close and pressing my body to his. Even under my mounds of skirt I could feel his arousal, hard against me. Suddenly I was afraid. I pulled back and blushed.
"Can I have a few minutes to be human?" He smiled down at me.
"But you're already perfect." He kissed my nose.
"Please, I'll just be a minute."
"Take as long as you want, I'll be waiting." He turned and left me alone, closing the bathroom door as he went. I went over to the double sink and looked at myself in the mirror. My hair was still okay and my makeup hadn't even smeared with my tears. Alice had obviously thought ahead when it came to my mascara. I pulled the pins out of my hair, letting it fall down around me, it tickled my back and looked surprisingly good, the curl held. I smoothed the bodice of my dress and silently hoped that everything underneath was still in place. I took several deep breaths and went to the door. Edward was completely silent on the other side. I opened the door and found him facing me sitting on the end of the bed. He had undone his tie and unbuttoned the first two buttons of his shirt. He looked casual and relaxed. He smiled when he saw me. Suddenly, whatever fear and nervousness was consuming me a moment ago vanished. I wanted him more than I was afraid. I wanted to become one with him and be more intimate with him than ever. It was more than I just wanted it, I needed it. He was mine forever and I was his.
I went to him slowly taking in his expression as he watched me. I reached him and placed my hands on his face. His eyes closed at my touch and his hands found my waist. He leaned his head into my stomach and inhaled deeply. I slid the tie from around his neck and pushed his jacket off his perfectly sculpted shoulders. He shrugged out of it and let it fall to the floor. He looked up at me again as his hands moved up and down my back. Next I undid the remaining buttons of his shirt. He slid out of that just as easily. His desire was visible beneath his pants I my eyes gazed hungrily at it. I stepped back from him a few steps and untied the corset of my dress. Once it was loosened enough I let it fall to the floor. The expression on Edward's face shifted from a smile of love to one of pure desire as he took in my surprise. I stepped out of my dress and went to him again. My hands found the same place on his face. He leaned into my skin and his cold lips tasted my stomach. His tongue traced upward and then down again to my panty line. I let my head fall back as a moan escaped my lips. His hands eagerly searched my back, my waist, my backside and his tongue tasted my skin.
He stood in one swift movement and lifted me in his arms as he kissed my neck then my chest, just below my collarbone. He laid me down on the bed and settled back on his knees to gaze at me again. Slowly and deliberately he undid the fastens of my garter belt and slid my stockings off one by one letting his cold hands rung the length of my leg. He kissed my calf then my knee finally his tongue skimmed up my thigh and another involuntary moan passed my lips. He lay with his forearms on either side of me holding his weight off me as he kissed me; our tongues caressing one another without restraint. He rolled me over to lay on top of him as he unfastened my bra. Then he was on top of me again. I held out my arms as he slid it off. His hands gently brushed down my shoulders to my arms then he moved his hand to cup my breast. His hand gently maneuvered around the contours of it as he felt the texture he lowered his head to brush his lips against my other nipple. The response inside me was purely instinct I arched my back into him and his lips moved to the center between the two. He gently eased down my panties then until he stood to slide them off my legs.
For a moment he just looked at me taking in my naked form. Then he undid his pants and let them fall to the floor as well. I took in the sight of him, exposed and eager. He climbed back onto the bed with his legs parting mine, his kisses on my thighs. His tongue briefly swept the lips in between them and I cried out in pleasure. He returned to his position on top of me and his body pressed for entrance into mine. I looked up at him again. He gazed down at me with anticipation in his eyes, but behind the anticipation he searched for my approval. He seemed to wait for me to invite him in. I pulled my legs up to clasp his hips on either side and shifted my hips so that I was directly beneath him.
"Make love to me, Edward." I whispered my voice raspy and more moan than words. He kissed me softly as he slid into me. The pain came suddenly, white hot and I gasped then relaxed. After another quick assessment he began to move slowly out again, gauging my reaction as he went. Then my body responded to his and we moved rhythmically with each other. As he sensed my comfort he kissed my neck and my chest as he breathed my name into my ear. Somewhere deep inside me the pressure and pleasure were building together and I was losing control. I marked his neck with my teeth and he responded with a moan and a quick increase in pace. We moved together and our hands eagerly explored every inch of each other. Finally when I couldn't contain myself anymore the warmth rushed through me and I cried out again and tensed my body against his. His body responded with a final thrust and then he returned my tension as he moaned a called my name one last time. I felt him spasm inside me as our climax peaked. We lay still connected as we tried to slow our breathing. His head lay on my chest and my fingers came up his back and twined into his hair. His cool breath on my skin made me want to begin the entire experience again.
He sighed, one last breath and lifted his head to look at me. My familiar blush spread across my face and I stared back into his golden eyes. Then to my extreme embarrassment I felt my chin tremble and the emotion of what had just happened and what I saw in his eyes took hold of me. Tears flowed freely down my face and I turned my face into his arm, lying beside my head. His icy fingers turned my chin gently back towards his face. He looked at me again, the emotional mess I had become.
"Please don't hide your emotions from me," he said, barely louder than a whisper. "Why are you crying? Are you hurt?" Now I could hear the concern in his voice. I shook my head hopelessly.
"I'm not hurt," I shuddered with my tears, "I just didn't know it would be so…" I couldn't finish. Edward lightly kissed me on my quivering lips.
"Amazing?" he said, unsure of his description. But I nodded, that was exactly it. I never knew something could be so wonderful. I had also never been so intimate with someone before; never so emotionally and physically connected to him. I could almost feel him through my entire body, burning through me deep into my soul. We were now truly one. I shuddered again, involuntarily. Edward rolled off me to lie at my side as he pulled the comforter of the bed around me. He didn't break contact with my skin though. I rolled on my side so we were facing each other. I looked him over, he didn't look any different, somehow I thought he would, I thought we both would.
"What are you thinking?" he asked me, unable to tell. "I've never wanted to know this much before."
"I was just thinking that I thought we would look different after. Do I look the same?"
"No, I've never thought you were more beautiful." He gave me another gentle kiss and let him pull me on top of himself. I startled his waist and felt his icy hands explore every inch of my naked skin. The second time was much easier and I let myself lose control again. As I climaxed I arched by back felt Edward's hands on my hips as his lifted off the bed to reach as deep into me as he could. The ecstasy swept over us and we collapsed together breathing erratically. I could get used to this, I thought to myself. I fell asleep quickly that night. I could feel Edward's marble fingers skimming the surface of my bare skin and I thought I wanted to make love again, but I couldn't wake myself up enough to tell him. I lost consciousness after that, perfectly happy and content.
