Once everything was done, Emmett leaned in and whispered, "Do you mind coming back to my room to finish getting ready for dinner?"

"No, that's fine."

Chapter 11

I used the bedroom I had changed in earlier, I slipped into a black, white and pink dress and my pink sandals. I came out to the sitting room and waited for Emmett. Twenty minutes later, he came out where he was quickly sitting next to me and said, "Bella, you're beautiful."

"Thank you, you make me feel beautiful." I leaned in and gently kissed him.

Emmett stood up, put his hand in front of me and asked, "May I take my beautiful date to dinner?"

I nodded and he took my hand and pulled me up next to him. He placed my hand into the crook of his arm leading me to the hotel lobby and not the rental SUV he had. As we stepped outside the lobby, there was a limousine waiting. The driver said, "Mr. McCarty, I'll be your driver this evening."

Emmett stepped to the side and let me slide in . Emmett slid in next to me. Once the door was closed, I leaned in and said, "Emmett, this is too much."

"I agree; but the hotel insisted. I let them so that I could sit this close to you."

The driver took us ten minutes up the road to the Wrigley Mansion. Emmett offered me his hand after he got out of the car. After I slid out, Emmett slid my arm back in the crook of his arm. We were met by a hostess and manager at the door. They escorted us up two floors into a private dining room; the room was glowing in candles when we went in. I gasped and said, "Emmett, you're amazing."

"You're worth doing amazing things for. However, I have to give the credit to Esme for this one."

Emmett pulled out my chair so that I could sit down. He sat down next to me. The manager said, "Mr. McCarty, you selected Adelsheim Vineyard Pinot Noir with salmon, rice and fresh vegetables."

"That is perfect."

"Please enjoy your evening; your waiter will be in shortly with the wine and your appetizers." The manager then quietly left.

I started to ask Emmett who is Esme. When our waiter came in with an appetizer platter and he poured a sample of the wine for Emmett to try. Emmett said, "Delicious."

Our waiter poured us both a glass and then left us. Emmett lifted his glass and said, "To a real date."

"Cheers, but hiking and spending the time with you on the boat was fun, too."

"Yes, but a quiet, beautiful dinner with my Angel is great, too."

I tried some of the appetizers and drank some of my wine. "Emmett, who is Esme?"

She owns the record company I work for with her husband. She loves me like a son; maybe because I'm her godson and she was available to help me out with setting this stuff up."

"Just checking, Emmett, this is all very good; but could we get some water as well."

"Of course. Bella, I know I asked you to come to LA with me."

"Yes, you have but,"

"Shh! I understand you want to have your own identity; I want you to. I know you also realize I travel quite a bit."

"So, if I lived in LA or Phoenix seeing you would be difficult, when you're traveling."

"Yes, but when I was in LA, I could still see you."

"Emmett, I don't like living alone yet; I'm always more relaxed when another family member is in the house at night. When you would be gone, I would be anxious."

"Then you could travel with me and we could just be glued together at the hip."

"But what would I do?"

"I actually have an idea; you like working with kids."

"Yes, I do."

"Let's say we start an organization in LA that does a pre show in a local elementary school about music arts. In every city we go to, we deliver the program. Then when we are back in LA, we could deliver the program all over the city. With schools cutting the arts funding, we could help bring part of it back."

"Oh my God, Emmett that is an incredible idea. I love it."

"I'm glad you do. I'll always make time to come to as many music programs as I can."

The waiter quietly brought in our dinner. After the waiter left, he raised his wine glass and said, "To you, children, me and music. Will you think about moving to LA now?"

"Yes, I will come to LA; but where will I stay?"

"In my guest house or an apartment wherever you want. I'm just so happy you'll be in the same city as me; but if you don't mind me asking, why are you agreeing to this?"

"Because my therapist recommended a change. We changed the house; but every date I have tried to go on in this town, the streets bring back the bad memories particularly when they take me home. The closer we get to the house, I get even more anxious no matter how nice the guy is."

Emmett leaned over and whispered, "Well then that's simple, I'm not going to take you home tonight."

Surprised I said, "Where are you going to take me?"

"Back to yours and my suite."

"You'll have your own bedroom and here's the number you can give your parents. Plus, if they call the hotel and ask for your room, they'll be connected to just your bedroom. I won't answer that line."

"Emmett."

"Bella, if you're really coming to LA, what's wrong with this? Plus did you miss me last night or not?"

"I did miss you."

"Well, I did, too," and he leaned over and kissed me, "You're delicious."

"So are you," and we started kissing. Soon Emmett stopped the kiss and we finished our dinner. The waiter came in with our dessert. It was a small two tier cake that looked exactly like the Tiffany store boxes.

"Emmett, this is almost too beautiful to eat."

"Really."

"Yes, it's adorable."

Emmett reached out and lifted the top part off the cake. But it didn't collapse in his hands. He set it on the plate in front of me and said, "This is for you to show you my love."

I carefully opened it and found a diamond heart pendant in white gold. "Emmett, it's beautiful."

Emmett was standing next to me, took the necklace from the box, put the necklace around my neck and started kissing around my neck to my one ear where he whispered, "I love you, my Angel."

I then whispered back, "I love you, too."

"Now would you like a piece of cake?"

"Yes, but only after you tell me why you call me Angel."

"Simply, when I met you, you made my heart jump and then as you went up the ramp and I thought I would never see you again. The next day when we found out about the model; I knew God had sent a message to me. I made Mike come with me on the adventure to find you. I knew it was meant to be. You're my Angel and I'll forever protect you. Now dry those happy tears and let's eat some cake."

I took my first bite and put it into my mouth. The cake melted into my mouth and I said, ''Hmmmm."

Then I heard Emmett groan, too; I looked up at him and said, "Are you okay?"

"Yes, Angel."

We then quietly finished the cake and then sat back and talked for awhile. Emmett leaned over and captured my lips quickly using his tongue to open the kiss. Eventually, Emmett pulled back and he said, "I think we should go; I want to do more than kiss you right now."

I smirked and whispered, "Really what do you want to do to me?"

He whispered what he wanted to do to me including undressing me and touching all over my bare naked body. He pulled back a little bit to see my face and then he said, "Bella, you're beat red."

I just smiled back up at him and said, "Let's go."

Emmett stood up and pulled out my chair. He put his hand in mine where he escorted me back out to our waiting limousine. Once we were in the limousine, we settled in for the few minute drive back to the Biltmore. On the drive back I quickly called my parents letting them know I was staying in a suite and giving them a phone number to reach me. The driver dropped us off close to our room. Once inside our suite, Emmett scooped me up and carried me to the couch. Once settled on the couch, I realized I was actually sitting on Emmett's lap and then he kissed me.

As the kiss ended I was smiling and said, "By the way, what are you going to be doing when we get back to LA."

"Actually, I'm going to be filming my second music video for the new album. Are you going to be in the video with me again?"

"Are you kidding?"

"No I'm not. Would you?" Emmett asked again with a pout on his face.

"Maybe."

"Just maybe," and he leaned in and kissed me. He maneuvered us so that we were now laying on the couch with me laying on the bottom. His hand worked his way up under the dress. My bra was pushed up and he enjoyed my breasts and then captured them with his lips. He brought his lips back up to mine. As he did, my hands pulled his shirt out from his pants and lifted it over his head. As we started kissing again, my hands started exploring his chest. He then kissed his way to my ear and then he whispered, "Now will you do the video?"

"What happens if I say maybe again?"

"I will get up and leave you just like this."

And he started to get up and leave, but I caught his hand and Emmett looked at me and I said, "Yes."

I pulled Emmett back toward me and he sat on the edge of the couch by my waist and leaned down and said, "Thank you," at my lips and gentle kissed them. As we finished the kiss, Emmett said, "How about you get your PJs on and we can cuddle and watch a movie?"

I said, "I would love to, but there is one problem?"

"Shh. I can make any problem go away. Now what is it?"

I smiled an innocent smile and said, "I didn't know or even think about spending the night so I didn't bring PJs."

Emmett said, "Oh really. You can just wear what is under the dress instead?"

I looked at him and he leaned closer to my ear and said, "I'm kidding," then he added, "I'll be right back." When he did, he handed me a gift bag and said, "Will this work?"

I pulled out a beautiful pale blue night gown. I stood up and held it up in front of me looking down at it. I smiled as I turned and looked at him said, "I do believe this'll work."

"I love blue on you and I agree. Go change and I'll meet you on your bed in 10 minutes, okay?"

"Okay," and I reached up and gently kissed his lips.

Emmett gently pulled back from the kiss and said, "There is a matching robe in your closet as well. I'll see you in a few."

I stepped into my bathroom and slipped into my silk nightgown; it was simple low cut in the back and landed at midthigh. It was a perfect fit. After seeing how low it went in the back, I grabbed the robe and put it on. The robe hung down to my knees. I started to rearrange the covers and pillows before I climbed into bed. I heard a low whistle and turned to see Emmett with a robe on but the top was gaping open enough I could tell he had on no t-shirt and I looked forward to exploring his chest. I stood up and turned around and said. "Yes."

"You really do look beautiful. Your hair and face cause that baby blue to pop on you."

"I like it because it reminds me of your eyes."

Emmett walked up and tackled me onto the bed and started kissing me. After a few minutes we settled down to watch a movie

Little did either of us know, there was a love scene in the middle that was very hot. We started kissing ourselves, robes were opened and pushed away. Next my nightgown, panties, his boxers went away. And very gently Emmett made love to me. Before he entered me the first time he asked, "Are you sure? I'll stop if you need me too."

Somewhere in paying attention to one another's bodies the TV got turned off. When I was laying in his arms after we climaxed together, Emmett pulled me in even closer and wiped away the tears coming down my cheeks. He asked, "Why are you crying, Bella?"
