Chapter Seven
I looked down at the man's face that had changed my life so quickly, but so irrevocably in just a few short days. His eyes were closed and he had gone limp in my arms, his red lips still slightly wet from my kiss. I pulled him up with little difficulty, he was much too thin, and buried my face in his hair. Edward's arm was still slung around me and I felt him fist my sweatshirt in his sleep. He smelled like sweat and oranges, along with grass and rain and dirt. I smiled; the combination was strange, but perfect. I picked him up bridal style, chewing at my lip, torn. Should I wake him? I glanced over at his ethereal face and remembered his tired eyes. No, I'd let him sleep. I settled him into the car seat before climbing in myself.
I didn't know where he lived so I just drove us to my house, looking over at my sleeping boy once every few minutes. Edward mumbled while he slept and I had to put a fist to my mouth to catch the giggles that threatened to escape. He was cute as fuck talking bout shit like, "So warm," and "Jasper's my spider."
Edward began to stir around the time I was pulling into the parking deck of my apartment. I quickly parked the car and unbuckled, moving over toward him. I placed a hand on his cheek as he slowly opened his eyes.
"Edward? Edward, wake up, darlin. We're home." I said softly.
Then Edward smiled at me. That small thing made me the happiest man alive.
"Hi." He said shyly. I grinned down at him, absentmindedly drawing closer and running my hand through his messy auburn locks.
I leaned all the way into him. "Hi." I replied. I went for his lips, needing to know this was real, he was real but Edward recoiled. I looked at him in confusion and he chewed on his lip, playing with my fingers.
"I've never… kissed before." He mumbled through closed lips. I smiled softly pulling him to me. His eyes fluttered closed, waiting. I placed a kiss on his nose, then on the face of his palm.
"Show me." I whispered and he opened his eyes, their beauty surrounding me.
"You are so beautiful, Edward." He opened his mouth to protest but I swallowed his words by capturing his lips in a soul searing kiss. Edward stiffened in surprise at first, before relaxing in my arms and tangling his hands in my hair that had escaped my ponytail and touched my shoulders. I moaned quietly into his mouth, moving my lips against his in a dance that I knew had been choreographed long before the life of either of us.
Kissing Edward was different, but the same in so many ways. His lips were fresh, clean, not like the girls I had kissed. Their mouths covered in sweet gloss. His mouth was just as full as most women, but his lips were more demanding. Raw, I thought, everything about him is so raw. And I loved it.
I ran my tongue hesitantly along his bottom lip, asking for entrance. His lips parted slightly and I began to plunder his mouth. We both released a groan as Edward's arching back pushed his denim covered cock into mine. I reluctantly pulled away from the kiss with a sigh, and Edward peppered my neck with kisses. I gasped as I felt him nip at a sensitive part of my neck, before sucking the skin into his mouth.
"Oh, fuck." I cried, bucking into him. I was so fuckin turned on that my Edward was biting me. Marking me. He let go of me soon afterwards and grinned proudly at his masterpiece on my neck. He pecked it once more, looking up at me with a goofy grin. I couldn't help but chuckle, lifting up off of him. He pouted and I gave him a mischievous look.
"Jasper?" He asked timidly. I growled before throwing him over my shoulder and making my way to the lobby.
"Jasper! Put. Me. Down!" He said sternly, pounding on my back before becoming limp and falling into a fit of giggles. We both laughed and he smacked me on the ass a couple times. I growled again, popping him on his butt. I loved this playful side of Edward almost as much as I loved shy, sweet Edward.
"Hey, Rick." I said nonchalantly as we passed the concierge desk. I felt Edward wave a little at the old man gawping at us and giggled.
"Hi." Edward said shyly, hiding his face in the curve of my back.
I put Edward down once we reached my apartment, opening it up for us and grabbing his hand.
"Well, this is it." I said, rubbing the back of my neck as I watched Edward look around my medium sized apartment. A few shirts were tossed around, and the dirty dishes lay piled up in the sink He went over to my small workspace by the window. His back was to me as I watched him look at all my artwork. He put his hand on my latest, a series I was starting. All the colors were greens, the lighter shades and the darker ones coming together to create a pair of wide, innocent eyes. Edward slowly turned to me, and I felt the distanced between us like never before.
"Is this…" He trailed off, his eyes unfocused, a slight frown on his face.
I was by his side in an instant, my arms around him.
"I am sorry, E. I should have asked you first, I know-" I begged him and I felt his fingernails bite into my arms like thorns. He shook his head violently, bringing his face to mine.
"Jazz, it's beautiful," he smiled sadly. "But they are so...innocent." he whispered, burying his face in my neck. I felt hot tears soak into the collar of my shirt and I pulled him to me, settling us on the couch.
"You are innocent, baby. You are-" I tried to comfort him but he wriggled from my grasp.
"No, I'm not Jay!" He cried. "I'm dirty! Don't you underst-" He sobbed but broke off. His actions contradicted his words as he clung to my neck and pressed his lips to my skin.
"Oh, E." I whispered.
"I'm scared, Jazz. I don't want to ruin you." He said quietly, looking up at me with watery eyes. He tried to hide his face in my shoulder but I held his chin.
"You could never, baby." He looked away from me but I pulled him closer. "E," I said more firmly. "You could never."
Suddenly Edward's mouth was on mine, the kiss clumsy and his teeth knocking into mine. But I didn't care, I could feel him smiling into the kiss, and I grinned as well. Soon we were just pressing our goofy smiles together, breaking it up with sloppy, happy kisses.
Best kiss of my life, I thought.
I lay on the couch later that night, the sun had gone down and the room was bathed in moonlight. I had wanted to take the couch and put E in my room but he had refused, making himself comfortable on my chest.
He drew designs on me lazily, our faces still close. To an onlooker this might have looked strange but this way his eyes burned into mine, and he was near to me. I could breathe him and smell his breath, washing over my face. He sighed happily every few minutes, running his lips down my throat and tasting me. I kissed his forehead and kept my lips there, threading my fingers in his hair. His knee slipped in between my legs and we were as close as possible.
I started to move us into the bedroom but a soft murmur from E told me he was asleep. I smiled, snuggling into his warmth.
I stayed awake, pondering my good fortune. Edward seemed to have a past, I had fallen for a man, and we were both fully grown men sleeping on a very small couch. I was here, snuggling, for the first time in my life-
My thoughts were interrupted by Edward's mumblings. "Mom! You know I hate cobbler."
I snorted. And I probably wouldn't get any sleep. But, this man (I still needed to get used to that) was my world now. He was beautiful and strong, honest and kind.
"My Jay," He murmured, sighing into my neck.
And he was mine.
