Chapter Fourteen

Roman sits down after hearing that his flight has been delayed yet again. Damn this weather. He pulls his phone out of his pocket to text Bayley. Delayed again. He should have already been back with her. But due to the weather, he couldn't get out of New York. He settles into his seat and looks around to see others looking around for somewhere to sit as well.

Again!?

Roman grins at Bayley's response. Afraid so. I'll let you know when I hear anything. He hates that he's stuck at the airport. The last four days have been hell without being able to be with Bayley. Of course, that makes him hate himself for letting himself fall so quickly for her. But it really hadn't been all that quickly. It took time. And he would have waited longer if he had to.

K. Don't stress over it.

Leave it to her to worry about him stressing himself out. I won't.

A short time later, Roman is finally getting an update for his flight. Unfortunately, it's not the update he had hoped he would be getting. Instead, he's been instructed to see the workers at the information counter for his hotel accommodations. He lets out a soft breath as he grabs his carry on and walks over to the growing line. It's nearly forty minutes later when he's boarding the shuttle bus to go to the hotel. He sits down and pulls his phone out once again.

You still awake? He nods at the man who sits down beside him.

Yes.

He looks at the man. "You mind if I make a phone call?" he asks.

"That's fine," the man says with a grin. "Was going to ask you the same thing."

Roman smirks. "Have at it." He puts his phone to his ear and listens to Bayley's phone ring.

"Hey," Bayley answers.

"Hey, Baby."

"You sound upset."

"Not really upset. More annoyed I guess." He sighs. "I just boarded a shuttle bus to a hotel. I'm stuck here for the night."

"You are?"

Roman can hear the disappointment in her voice. "I promise that I'll be with you as soon as I can."

"I know. I just… I miss you."

"I miss you too, Baby. Weather should be breaking up though. So hopefully first thing in the morning."

"You'll let me know?"

"Bayley, do you really need to ask me that?" He grins. "Go to bed. I'll talk to you tomorrow."

"Okay. Get some sleep."

"I will. Goodnight, Bay."

"Goodnight, Rome."

Roman ends the call and lets out a heavy breath. God, what he wouldn't give to be with her right now. He can only wait to see what the morning will bring. He just hopes it'll be good news rather than all the bad news he's been receiving.

Roman follows Emma off the elevator and shifts his back pack. "So she doesn't know I'm here, right?" he asks.

"She does not," Emma answers with a smile. "She thinks you're still stuck in New York. She also thinks I took the key card for myself so I wouldn't have to wait for her to answer."

Roman nods. "Thanks for doing this."

"You're welcome. Happy to help." She stops outside of the hotel room door. "Ready?"

"I'm ready." He takes the key from her before stepping past her. He pushes the door open and steps inside. He makes sure Emma has hold of the door before walking the rest of the way. He smiles when he sees Bayley sitting cross legged on the bed. He sets his bags to the side. "Hey, you."

Bayley looks up with wide eyes. "Roman!" She scrambles off the bed and jumps into his arms. "I thought you were still in New York."

Roman lifts her off the ground as he holds her close, not surprised when she wraps her legs around his waist. "Got an early flight here. Was going to call you but then about surprising you." He pulls back enough to kiss her softly. "I thought surprising you was the best option."

"I hate you." She cups his face before kissing him once again.

"I see how much you hate me," he says between kisses.

"Okay, you two continue. I'll see you later," Emma says with a smile.

Roman sets Bayley down as they wave at Emma. He kicks his shoes off once Emma has left the room. "Surprised?"

"Yes." Bayley slides her arms around Roman's middle and lays her head on his chest. "But it's a very good surprise." She looks up at him and smiles. "I missed you."

Leaning down, he kisses her softly. "I missed you too, Baby." He slides his hands down her sides. "Come 'ere." He kisses her once again, this time with a little more force behind it.

Bayley sighs happily into the kiss, letting him take complete control. He moves his hands to her thighs and lifts her up once again. She giggles against his mouth when his fingers slide slowly over her bare thighs.

"Sorry," he whispers.

"It's okay." She pulls back and smiles at him. "Can I take your hair down?"

He nods. "Anything you want, Baby." He kisses her again as she slides a hand around to tug at his bun. He moans softly when she combs her fingers through his hair. He slides an arm around her waist and takes a step toward the bed.

"Do you have…?"

"Yeah, in my bag." He lets her slide off him before he turns and opens unzips the front of his bag. He's thankful that he actually remembered to stop at the store before flying down. He pulls the box out of the bag and rips it open. He grabs one of the condoms before walking over to where Bayley is sitting on the bed. He hands her the square package and tosses the box in the general direction of the nightstand. He'll worry about that later.

Bayley licks her lips as she looks up at Roman. "You won't laugh at me, will you?"

Roman frowns. "Why would I laugh at you?"

"Because I'm still so inexperienced."

"Maybe so, but there's nothing wrong with that." He watches as she slides her hands up his thighs and moves to his jeans.

"Can I?"

He nods slowly, letting her take this at her pace. She carefully undoes his jeans and pushes them over his hips. Reaching back, Roman pulls his shirt off, causing her to pull back quickly.

"Relax, it's okay."

"Sorry." She blushes before leaning in and kisses his stomach softly. She looks up to meet his gaze as she pulls his boxers down his legs. "Is this okay?"

Roman nods slowly. "Yes. Just remember to relax."

She nods as she wraps her fingers around his thickening cock. "Don't laugh at me."

"Never, Baby." He watches as she leans forward again, this time parting her lips enough to wrap around the head of his cock. It takes everything he has to not thrust forward. When she looks up at him again, he sucks in a deep breath. "Oh God, that's so sexy."

Bayley swirls her tongue around the tip of his cock a few times before she pushes down on him further. She closes her eyes, savoring his taste. For the first time since she's started being intimate with people, she is actually enjoying this part. She doesn't feel forced like she had regularly in the past. Roman seems content to let her take this at her own pace. He seems more than content, actually. He seems to be enjoying the pace she's set.

Roman reaches down, sliding his fingers into her hair. "So good, Baby." He drops his head back and lets out a soft moan. "Oh wow." He licks his lips as he looks down at her once again. "Back up for a second." He pushes her gently until she releases him.

"Am I doing it wrong?"

"No, not at all." He leans down and kisses her softly. "Just want you to get rid of some of these clothes." He tugs at her shirt, smiling when she shifts and lifts her arms. He pulls her shirt up over her head and tosses it away. That's when he realizes that she isn't wearing a bra. "Fuck me." He slides his hands down and cups her breasts. "So perfect."

Bayley reaches out and strokes Roman's cock. "You're so good to me." She smiles a little when he lets her pull him back toward her again. She sucks him back into her mouth, humming softly as she starts to bob her head.

Roman watches as she shifts slightly to push her shorts off. He can already tell how wet she is through her underwear. He moans when she pushes the material to the side and circles her fingers over her clit. "Oh, shit."

She looks up at him as best as she can. The way he looks at her makes her feel something she's never felt before. He curls his fingers in her hair as she holds down on him for a moment. He gasps as he comes, unable to warn her. She pulls off after he finishes and smiles up at him.

"Sorry," he says. "I didn't have time to warn you."

"It's okay." She pulls him down and kisses him softly. She slides her arms around him as he shifts to move them to the top of the bed. She arches up against him. "Please…"

Roman smiles against her lips. "Please what?" He bites down on her bottom lip. "Tell me what you want."

"You." She slides her hands up and down his back. "Want to feel you."

He gives her another soft kiss before sitting up. He pulls underwear off, flinching when he ultimately rips them. "Sorry."

She giggles. "It's okay." She pulls him back down and kisses him. "I have others."

He snorts. "Good thing." He shifts again to roll the condom over his cock. "Ready?"

She nods. "Yes." She rests her hands on Roman's biceps as he guides himself into her. She holds her breath when he stretches her.

"Breathe, Baby." He kisses the side of her mouth. "That's it." When he feels her relax around him, he starts moving slowly.

Bayley whimpers as she buries her face in Roman's neck. "Oh God."

"So good, Baby." Roman turns his head to capture her mouth in a heated kiss.

She arches up against him, practically whining against his mouth. She can't hold out much longer. She slides a hand up into his hair. He quickens his movements as she curls her fingers in his hair.

"Roman…" She gasps as she reaches her high. "Oh yes."

He pushes through one last time as she tightens on him before reaching his own release with a moan. He kisses her again, this time softer than the few previous. He moans as she slides her hands down his back. "I love you."

She pushes him up enough to look at him. "What?" She couldn't have heard him correctly, right? There's no way he just told her that he loves her.

He smiles before kissing her once again. "I love you," he repeats. "I am in love with you."

"But…"

He pulls up to meet her gaze. "But…?"

"I…" She licks her lips before she smiles shyly. "I love you too."
