Author's Note: Thank you for all your wonderful reviews. I loved them. Also I'm skipping ahead to Graduation. I don't really like writing about school for some reason ha! So yeah, bear with me.
Author's Note 2: I am SOOO sorry for being late with the update. I didn't know how far to take the intimacy in this chapter. So if I offend anyone, I'm sorry. If I get a good reaction, I'll continue with intermittent intimacy between Reid and Jules. Also I may have to up the rating. Enjoy my lovelies xoxo.
The Second Chance
Chapter 3: Graduation And Hotel Rooms
Jules's POV
It's been a few weeks since I had gotten out of the hospital, and graduation is right around the corner. Quite literally actually. The Sons, who I had found out by accident were part of a long line of influential men here in Ipswich, and I were all getting ready at Caleb's mansion. I was on my way to do my hair in the bathroom when someone rang the doorbell.
"I'll get it!" I yelled, running down the main staircase to the door. Throwing open the door, Allison stood there on the other side with her grad gown, a yellow dress, and cap. "Hey Ally, come on in. I was just about to do my hair. The guys are still getting ready."
"Nice dress Jules, but you know it's going to be hidden by the gown right?" She smiled and I nodded.
"I know, but Reid has a date planned for us afterwards. He told me to wear a cocktail dress." Going up the stairs, Ally went into the bedroom I was previously changing in, and I went into the bathroom to do my hair. Deciding on an up-do, I spied movement in the corner of my eye. "Well if it isn't my creeper. How do I look? Why aren't you ready yet?"
Reid looked me up and down, pausing on the way the neckline accentuated my chest and a slow grin spread over his face. I was wearing a purple cocktail dress for our date, it had a sweetheart neckline and a rhinestone buckle on the empire waistline. "Let's skip the grad ceremony and go straight for the date." I smiled and was glad he approved of the dress.
Reid stalked forward and wrapped his arms around my waist, hauling me up against him. Pressing his lips to mine, I moaned into the kiss and he smiled, nipping at my lower lip. Parting my lips, his tongue slipped in and tangled with mine. Backing up against the wall of the bathroom, I felt his hands gather the back of my dress into his hands. Moving his hands to my thighs, he lifted me up and wrapped my legs around his waist as he pinned me against the wall.
"Reid…I should…we need to." I couldn't even speak coherently and he chuckled. I knew he knew what he was doing to me.
"No talking." He removed his mouth from mine and instead attached it to my neck. Biting down on a spot below my ear, I gasped and laid my head against the wall, burying my hands in his hair. Reid continued sucking on my neck and heat started to pool in the pit of my stomach. Groaning, I grounded my hips into his and he growled into my ear, biting my earlobe. "Naughty girl Jules. Naughty girls get punished." I moaned as his words intensified the heat, and it took me a few seconds to realize my feet were touching the ground once again. Opening my eyes Reid was by the doorway with an evil smirk on his lips.
"You…what the hell Reid?" I was torn between feeling horny and wanting to throttle him. I glared and his eyes darkened as I fixed my dress, smoothing it down my body. One minute he had me up against the wall, as ready to go as I was, and the next he's by the door like nothing happened.
"Finish getting ready, we'll be leaving in ten minutes." Reid turned from the door and sauntered away. Laughing as I threw a giant hair curler at the back of his head. Taking a deep breath, I waited until my heart slowed and I turned back to the mirror. Fixing my hair, I spritzed it with hairspray, and reapplied some light pink lip gloss. Turning my head to look at my hair in all directions, a dark bruise caught my eye. I groaned when I saw the hickey, and reached for the concealer.
Walking out of the bathroom, I met up with Allison and linked our arms together. "Well don't you look pretty. Caleb won't be able to keep his hands off of you." She blushed and smiled, bumping my hip with hers. Allison looked great in her yellow grad dress.
"You mean like Reid couldn't with you? I saw him and you in the bathroom." I avoided her eyes and she laughed. "We're so far gone." I nodded and agreed. The boys were waiting by the door, and they all stared as Ally and I went down the stairs. "Close your mouths boys, you'll catch flies." Ally joked, going up to Caleb and smiling as he wrapped her in his arms.
Reid's eyes darkened as I walked towards him, and the heat returned almost immediately. Placing a hand on my chin, he turned my head and I smiled when he growled. "Like I'd actually showcase a hickey at graduation." I pecked his cheek.
"Guess I'll just have to make another one before you accept your diploma, so everyone knows who you belong to." He wrapped his arm around me and trapped me against his side, but I wasn't complaining. Reid's been like this since school ended, and we've been spending practically every waking moment together. I agreed to go on a date with Reid a week and a half ago, so I was dying with anticipation at what he planned for tonight.
"So I belong to you do I Mr. Caveman?" He nodded and ushered me out the front door towards the blue mustang. Going around to the passenger side door, he opened it and I kissed his cheek before getting in. When he got into his side, he started up the car and pulled out onto the driveway.
"Me and no one else." We arrived at the theater that was hosting the ceremony. Reid parked and got out, opening my door. Holding out his hand, I placed mine in his and he helped me out from the car. Which was nice since my shoes were impossible to walk in without some help. We started walking, but then Reid stopped letting go of my hand and opened the trunk, taking out the grad gowns and caps. Walking back to me, he slipped mine over my head and I adjusted it as he slipped on his. Deciding to wait to put the cap on, I handed mine to Reid and grabbed his free hand. Walking into the theater, Reid and I parted ways to sit alphabetically, like the teachers planned it.
As the grad ceremony went along, everyone hollered and clapped as friends accepted their diplomas. Then came an award ceremony, a slideshow, and then the Valedictorian speech, which was announced by Kira. When the headmaster announced the graduating class of that years Spenser Academy student body, we all stood up, threw our caps in air and made a shit load of noise.
I was busy hugging a girl from my English class when Reid came up behind me and grabbed my elbow. "Come on, let's start the date early." I said goodbye to Jackie, the girl from my English class, and followed Reid to the entrance of the theater. Weaving through the crowd of parents and family members, Reid and I ran to the car and climbed in. "Well that was exciting."
I laughed and buckled my seatbelt. "So where are we going?" I grabbed his hand and laid my head on his arm.
"Can't tell you it's a surprise." He smiled cheekily at me, and rubbed my hand with his thumb. We arrived at The Liberty Hotel and my jaw dropped.
"Reid, when I thought of our date I thought of dinner and a movie. Not a five star hotel." I looked at the beautiful building with wide eyes, and Reid looked at me.
"I thought this would be better, besides you're more then worth it. If you don't like it, we can always go and-"
"No! I love it. Can you afford it?" I chewed on my bottom and lip and Reid reached over and to use his thumb to free my lip.
"Of course I can silly girl. I could buy you the hotel if you wanted me to." He smiled at me, got out and went over to open my door.
"We'll save that for our next date." He laughed and wrapped an arm around me. I looked up at the building as we entered and gaped at the layout. There was an escalator which lead up to the main hotel. Reid got our room key and we went up the main level. "Holy mother of nature. This place is gorgeous Reid." There was balconies wrapping around the entire lobby, which lead to the rooms. Giant chandeliers glittered from the massive ceilings.
"I thought you'd appreciate it. What do you say to eating in the room? Just you and me, a huge bed…" Reid wrapped his arms around my waist from behind me, putting his chin on my shoulder.
"Hmm I think I'd like that." I turned my head and kissed him, moaning into it when he moved his hands to grip my hips, crushing me against his arousal. Heat once again pooled in my stomach and I knew it would be quite a show for everyone if we didn't get to the room. "Reid, the room, now."
Grabbing my hand, he dragged me to an elevator on the adjacent wall next to the front entrance, and hit the button for the top floor. "Let's just do it here." Reid said before attacking my neck. Backing against the elevator wall, I wrapped my legs around him and he pushed his arousal into me, grinding his hips into mine. He abandoned my neck and I groaned at the loss of contact. Smiling he kissed a trail to my collarbone, then to the tops of my breasts.
"Isn't there cameras in elevators?" I mumbled, not really caring, as Reid bit my breasts and soothed it with his tongue.
"Who cares, we'll give them a show." Reid reached around and untied the straps holding up my dress. They fell over my shoulders, and Reid moved one to the front in order to kiss lower.
The bell for our floor rang, and Reid swore. As the doors opened, an elderly couple looked shocked to see us in such a position. Reid rolled his eyes and helped me down onto my feet, and I gathered the straps to my dress in one hand, holding it up. "Good evening." I smiled at them politely as we left the elevator. "Wow that was…awkward."
"Best part of their evening. Our room is just down this hall." Reid took my hand, entwining our fingers and we turned a corner. He slipped the keycard into the door and we stepped into the room. From the main living area, you could see a giant portion of Boston. The furniture in the room looked comfy, and I imagined Reid and I curled up on the couch watching a movie. We went into an adjoining room, and saw the master bed, which had the covers turned down, a chocolate on both pillows. To the right was a large bathroom, with both a standing shower and a large Jacuzzi tub.
"Wow this entire room is lovely. Do you think I could take the furniture home and put it in my room?" I smiled as Reid chuckled, shaking his head. He grabbed my waist and backed us towards the bed.
"I don't know Bookworm, you can ask. Right now though I really want you out of that dress." Reid took the halter straps from my hands and let them drop in front of me. Taking the hem of the dress, he pulled it up and over my head, throwing it on the floor.
"Hey! That was a two hundred dollar dress." I exclaimed, smacking his arm.
"I'll buy you another one." Reid told me, removing his shirt and throwing it into the rapidly growing pile. He ran his hands along my arms, bent his head and rolled one of my nipples between his teeth. "No bra Jules?" Reid pushed me onto the bed so I was laying down, and kneeled between my legs. Bending his head, he lowered his mouth to my throat, kissing and sucking a line down to my stomach.
"It would have looked bad with the dress. Beside's I thought you'd like it." I closed my eyes and enjoyed the feel of his lips on me.
"I do like it. I especially like that fact that you chose a black g-string. Never thought you would." Keeping his eyes on me, he stood up and kicked off his dress shoes. Kneeling back on the bed, he grabbed one of my legs, took hold of my foot and kissed my ankle. "I love your legs." He mumbled, his voice deep with desire.
"Hmm I know you do." I mumbled, wrapping my free leg around his waist. "Which is why I bought those shoes. They make my legs look awesome." I smiled as I felt his laugh against my skin, and sighed in pleasure. Moving from my ankle to my inner thigh, my breath hitched and my entire body heated up at the thought of Reid and I having sex for the first time as a couple.
A few days after our trip to the park from shopping for the wedding, he told me he loved me enough to want to take our relationship to the next level. I surprised myself by feeling the same way. I wasn't a virgin; Jeremy Sykes took care of that in tenth grade, but I wasn't as experienced as most of the girls Reid has slept with. When I told him so, he just stroked my cheek and told me I meant a lot more to him then they did, and that he'd rather be the one to teach me a few things. Of course I smacked him for that comment, but loved him even more for easing my anxiety.
"I think you should keep your shoes on, they're fucking hot." Reid bit and nipped at my stomach and I sighed in pure bliss. His hands wandered up to my stomach and over the curves of my chest. I traced patterns on his bare back, then brought my hands up to bury into his hair.
"Oh really? That's kind of kinky. Maybe you should wear them then, since you like them so much." I giggled as he glared.
"No more talking Juliet." I screamed as he lunged for my neck, biting and sucking hard enough to leave a mark. Moving to my lips, he bit on my lower lip and tugged. Gasping at the pain it caused, but also pleasure, he slipped his tongue in to caress mine. One of his hands left the sides of my stomach to trail down to my thighs. I bucked against him as his fingers moved between my legs and grazed across my g-string.
"Oh god." I clutched as a jolt of heat went straight to my core. "Reid, stop teasing." I groaned as he lightly rubbed his fingers across my centre, alternating between hard and teasing strokes. "Reid, I'm being ser- oh my god." I arched off the bed as he inserted a finger.
I writhed on the bed in pure pleasure as he inserted a second finger. I pried my eyes open and gasped at both the rhythm he said and the look in his eyes as he watched me fall apart just from his fingers.
Sounding my disapproval of the loss of contact, I heard the rustling of pants being undone. "You know Jules, I've waited for this moment from the first time I saw you." Stepping out of his slacks, he threw them with the rest of the clothes and climbed onto the bed. "Raise your hips."
He hooked his fingers around the thin strips of cloth I call panties, and before he could take them off, a knock sounded at the door. "Are you fucking kidding me?" Reid swore and I couldn't help but giggle at how frustrated he sounded. Resting his head on my stomach, he planted a kiss on my bellybutton and abandoned his task. "Stay here while I see who was stupid enough to interrupt." Reid huffed as he slipped his slacks back on, but didn't bother doing them up.
"Don't kill them Reid!" I laughed as he muttered "no promises" under his breath. Shivering from a sudden chill, I removed my high heels, got up from laying on the bed and maneuvered under the blankets. "Reid who is it?"
"Room Service. I forgot I made food orders ahead of time. Why are you under the covers?" He narrowed his eyes and stalked towards me.
"I've decided to be Amish. Sex is against my religion!" I shrieked and laughed as he lunged for the covers, ducking farther under the covers.
"Get your ass back here!" I giggled as he climbed in after me and I scooted as far away as possible. Reid gripped my ankle and pulled me towards him. "Now I've got you. Amish my ass." He growled and flung the covers off of us. He gripped my waist and flipped us so we were laying down with me on top. "I love you." Reid said, skimming his hands along my bare back like I had done to him.
"Hmm, I love you too." I leaned down and kissed him. "Take off your pants." I smiled innocently and chuckled, flipping us again so he was on top. Getting up he slipped off his slacks and I suddenly found it hard to breathe properly. Rising on my knees, I jumped off the bed and wrapped my arms and legs around Reid. Gripping my thighs, he turned us so we were sitting on the bed, with me straddling him. "Amish be damned. Wait, did you bring protection?" I looked him in the eye and he looked back confused.
"Well there's a security guard downstairs, but I didn't think you wanted an audience." He smiled cheekily as I snorted, laying my head on his shoulder. "Yes I brought condoms." He lowered us to the bed, and fished around for a condom he apparently had stored in the bedside table ahead of time.
Reid and I spent our first night together, well our first intimate night together. After it was over, we had something to eat, so sparkling white wine and watched a movie in the main living area, cuddling on the couch. There was no pressure tonight, which just made the day perfect. When we decided to go to bed, Reid wrapped me in his arms and I swear I saw a future for us in his eyes before he drifted off to sleep. Before I followed him into slumber, I kissed him and knew there would never be anyone better, then the man holding me at that moment.
