CHAPTER FOURTEEN-Learning To Breathe Again
She had woken up in his arms, rolling over and nearly pushing them both off the bed. But, Elena was quickly stopped by her husband's arms, tightly fastening around her waist line.
Stefan sighed as he made small circles on her stomach, kissing her cheeks softly as she giggled at him in the early morning light.
"I have to go get ready for work..." Elena told him in a soft tone, her voice trailing off as she turned in his arms.
Stefan grimaced at her words, laughing slightly as he pushed himself off of her. "Yeah, and...?" He started to say, watching as Elena rolled her eyes as she spoke. "Alone, I'm going in the shower...alone. Okay?" She said, tilting her head to the side and glaring at him.
She watched as her husband smiled and then stuck out his lower lip, pouting at her with his dark green 'puppy dog eyes' "Come on, Elena...It would be fun. I can help!" Stefan told her, getting up from the bed and turning towards the door of the master bath room.
"Help? With what?" She asked, turning away from him with a smirk, her reflection getting caught off of the mirror in their room.
"Oh, I don't know. Need someone to shampoo...I can help." Stefan commented with a laugh as he pushed her out of the way and started to take off his white t-shirt, smiling at his wife as she reluctantly nodded. "Fine, But, If I'm late because of you...we're so not showering together again!"
After drying her hair and getting dressed for work, Elena had made her way down stairs to place her clothes in the laundry room when she heard the back door burst open, four familiar voices flowing through the house as she made her way into the kitchen, listening to Stefan greet them.
"Good Morning, Lovelies!" Caroline commented as Elena watched her place a bag of groceries on the kitchen counter.
"Good Morning guys! What are you all doing here this early?" Elena began to ask, looking over from Caroline to Klaus and then making quick eye contact with Damon and Katherine.
"We figured that since we're all going to be at the beach house this weekend. Well, that Caroline and I could discuss ideas for dinner and stuff while we're there. Plus, Caroline told me that Klaus was nearly going to go crazy if he didn't see Stefan soon. Something about high separation anxiety." Katherine explained, rolling her eyes over at Klaus who scuffed at her words.
"I don't have separation anxiety, Love. More like I'm just making sure that the little bastard is still alive. You know, making sure that the Misses hasn't killed him yet." Klaus said with a sarcastic laugh, patting Stefan on the shoulder.
Elena turned on her heels, her face blushing as she pointed to Stefan who was chopping vegetables on a cutting board. "Can I speak with you, alone..for like a few minutes." She said, watching as Stefan nodded and they both disappeared down the hall.
Stefan watched as Elena's body stiffened, her posture changing as she pulled him into the darkened and warm laundry room.
"Wow, honey. The laundry room. That's kinky..even better than the shower this morning." Stefan told her with a wink as he felt Elena swat at his arm and turn on a light.
Rolling her brown eyes at him before she spoke. "Oh, Shut up and focus! Stefan, my eyes are up here...not in my shirt!" Elena complained, pulling up his face with the tip of her fingers as she glared at him.
"Okay. sorry..I like that pink bra, by the way. It's hot." He said with a laugh as Elena smirked at him, laughing at his comment.
"My God! You're acting like a love sick teenager! So, did you tell our friends about our sex life?" Elena asked him suddenly, watching as Stefan's face became a bit pale and he swallowed hard.
"No..I'd never do that!"He proclaimed in a denying tone. Watching as Elena leaned into him, her face near the curve of his neck, her hot breath on his skin as she heard him swallow hard, trying to keep the composure that she wanted him to have.
"Come on, not even a little bit...?" She asked him, leaning into his neck as she heard his voice hitch. Stefan's voice cracked as he felt her leave a soft and slow kiss on his skin, pushing into his body more as he pulled her closer towards him, their bodies nearly molded together as Elena looked up at him, batting her long eye lashes at him. "Did you?" She asked him again in a low voice.
"No, I swear." He told her, his voice breaking and his hands resting on her hips as she locked her warning brown eyes on him.
"Okay, so if you didn't say anything. Then, why would have Klaus said that he wanted to make sure I wasn't trying to kill you?" Elena said, her eyes narrowing on her husband as she tried hard not to giggle at the silliness of it all.
"He was joking. You know, all of us guys joke around. It's a guy thing. You don't need to worry baby...I didn't tell them that we're trying to have more kids either." He commented quickly, turning Elena by her shoulders as they exited out of the laundry room, him wrapping his arms around her.
"So, were you guys trying to make baby Salvatore's. In there, again?" Damon chuckled, a smile spreading across his lips, hearing everyone else laugh too.
"Stefan, I thought that you..." Elena's voice trailed off as she threw a glare in the direction of her husband, watching as he rubbed his face with his hands and held onto the counter top for support, giving his brother a stern look and mouthing a quick 'shut the fuck up!' at him.
"Oh, Come on Elena! We're just screwing with him!" Klaus shouted, watching as the brunette turned on her heels, facing Klaus and watching as Katherine and Caroline locked their eyes on her.
"Oh that's fine. Good thing you're killing him with embarrassment now. Because, I swear to God that if I found out that he told any of you about our private life within this house. I'm going to come home today and kill him. But, this time.. I'm not going to be very nice about it!" Elena said, a smirk forming on her lips as she turned towards them all and spoke. Watching as Stefan's face grew redder and he elbowed Damon in the chest.
"Oh Come on Honey! You can't do that...What kind of punishment would you give me?" Stefan said in a joking manner, winking at her as Elena scuffed and spoke before taking her bags off of the dining room table and turning towards the entrance of the front door.
"Oh honey...I'm pretty sure you'd know what kind of punishment I'll give you...You wouldn't be getting any of this.. for a long ass time!" Elena commented as she brought her hands up and down to swirl around her body, watching as Stefan swallowed and frowned at her, his eyes glued to the seriousness in her face.
"That is cruel! That's like a death sentence for a man!" Damon told her as she throw him a glare over her shoulder before walking out of the house.
"Watch me! Game On, Baby! Game on!" Elena told them, raising her hands up in the air with a wide grin on her face, blowing Stefan a kiss before walking out of the house for work with a wicked laugh.
