A/N: Hi guys, I'm sorry I haven't updated during the week. Let's just say that work sucks. I hope you all enjoy the chapter.
28
I awoke the next morning naked beneath the sheets with a painful throbbing in my left wrist. The pain was so bad that I wanted to almost cry. Using my right hand I searched for Edward but came up empty. "Edward?" I called groggily as I looked around the room. His bag was packed and looked ready to go by the door. I sat up in the bed, holding the sheet over my breasts and looked around the room once again.
Edward emerged from the main room fully dressed in jeans and a tight knit sweater with an ice pack, "I'm here," he said sitting next to me on the bed pulling me into his arms. "How are you feeling?" he asked placing the ice on my throbbing wrist.
"It hurts," I said fighting back the tears from the pain, "but I think I'll be ok." The cold icepack felt great against my wrist.
"You don't have to be brave Bella," he said brushing the hair away from my face, "I don't mind taking care of you." I sighed. I don't like admitting that I need help but I guess it's a bit inevitable. "Are you hungry? I'll make you anything you want."
I smiled at his offer but I didn't want him to put himself out over something as simple as breakfast. "I'll just have some toast and a banana."
He kissed my temple and moved to get off the bed, "I'll be right back. Keep your wrist elevated it should help with the pain." He smiled at me and left the room.
I held my wrist up cradling the ice pack against it wondering how long it would take for the throbbing to go away. Edward returned moments later with my toast, a banana, a glass of orange juice and a red rose.
I raised one eyebrow and picked up the rose, "Where did this come from?"
His crooked grin formed on his angel face, "I went out earlier."
"You did?" I asked, "How long have you been up?"
"About an hour," he said pulling my pill bottle out of his pocket placing one pill next to my toast. He was up for an hour already? I began to pout. "What?" he asked grinning and placed his hand on my cheek.
"You weren't next to me when I woke up," my lip jetting out a little farther.
He leaned in taking my pouting lip between his and kissed me with such passion I felt as if I was lit on fire and I felt my core drench the sheets beneath me. We broke away breathless, "I'm sorry, my love," he whispered rubbing his nose along my jaw, "Do you forgive me?"
"Only if you promise to kiss me like that again," I breathed.
He chuckled lightly, his breath tickling my skin. His lips met mine once more and the fire burned within me once more. The sheet covering my breasts fell to a pool at my waist exposing me to him as I placed my arms around his neck pulling me closer to him. He moaned into my mouth as the kiss deepened and his hands found my breasts massaging them while his thumbs teased my nipples. I moaned into his mouth as the sparks of pleasure built within me. I grabbed the back of his shirt and began pulling it up with my right hand till it was finally over his head.
"Edward?" I breathed, "Take off your pants."
Hesitantly he separated our lips and hastily removed his pants and boxers. He stood up and walked to his suitcase to get a condom I assume. I stared, almost drooling at his physique. The muscles in his legs, butt and back contracting as he moved.
He turned back to me exposing his arousal and met me under the covers. He kissed me with the same passion and I wrapped my legs around him. He moved his lips slowly down my neck and to my chest seizing my right nipple and teased the other with his left hand making me moan. His right hand moved up my inner thigh to my core, "God, you are so wet." he moaned against my breast.
I felt two fingers enter me while his thumb rubbed my clit. I bucked my hips grabbing his hair, "Oh God, Edward I'm going to cum." He rose up kissing me fiercely and continued stimulating my clit and added a third finger. My scream was muffled by his mouth as I came into his hand.
His hand moved away and he licked my juices clean off his hand. "Edward," I moaned still trembling from my orgasm. I wanted him inside me and he didn't give it to me. Not that what he did wasn't satisfying but I wanted him. I was about to speak my complaint when his mouth met mine and the sound of the wrapper ripping was muffled in the background. Edward shifted and I felt his tip plunge deep within me. I gasped and I grabbed the skin on his back causing a moan out of him as he pumped faster within me. His lips moved down sucking my nipples and I felt my climax coming once again.
Edward pumped harder and kissed me once again and I shattered as my orgasm over came me closely followed by his release. Breathing heavily he kissed my shoulder and up my neck. "Where did that come from?" I asked brushing his sweaty hair away from his face.
"I wanted to make it up to you that I wasn't here this morning when you woke up," he breathed heavily.
I giggled, "Well you succeeded with flying colors," thrusting my hips into him.
He kissed me deeply, "That's nice to hear," he breathed brushing my hair away from my face and to my embarrassment my tummy rumbled. He chuckled sliding out of me to kiss my stomach, "You should eat your breakfast, love and take your pain pill." He moved to grab my plate of food and brought it in front of me after I sat up against the headboard.
I obediently began eating a piece of toast that was now cold but I didn't really care. "What did you do for that whole hour anyway?" I asked curiously.
"Well," he said laying his head in my lap looking up at me, "I took a shower, which I am obviously going to have to do again." He chuckled looking over his sweaty appearance.
"I don't know," I smiled running my right hand through his hair, "I kind of like you like this."
He turned his head and kissed my stomach, "You can have me like this anytime you want."
I smiled kissing the tip of my finger and placed it on his nose making him grin. "What else did you do?"
"I went to the nearest pharmacy because last night we apparently used the last of our stash," he grinned.
I giggled, "Are you serious?" I asked, "We used that entire box of condoms?"
He chuckled nodding his head, "While I was there I saw the rose and I couldn't resist." He kissed my stomach again while I finished off my banana. "Are you ready for your juice?" I nodded and he sat up grabbing my pill and the glass of juice. I took the pill and drank the rest of my juice.
Satisfied, he stood up heading for the bathroom and started the water in the shower. He returned shortly after and picked me up bridal style taking me to the shower setting me on my feet. He removed the wrap around my left wrist placing it on the counter then guided me into the shower where he took great care in washing my hair and massaging soap into my skin before rinsing me off. He quickly washed his hair and body kissing my shoulders and neck intermittently before he turned off the water. Grabbing a towel from the rod he dried me off slowly kissing my knees, hips, stomach, shoulders and neck. He squeezed the towel in my hair to dry it enough to not drip then kissed me wrapping the towel around me. He took his own towel drying himself off then wrapping it around his waist.
"You know I may just want you to do that to me every morning from now on," I teased.
He chuckled, "I wouldn't complain," leaning in to kiss me only to be interrupted by a knock on the bedroom door. He kissed me quickly before going to answer it. I heard a low mumble of voices followed by the door closing. Edward reentered the bathroom shaking his head slightly miffed, "We need to leave in a half hour," giving me a chaste kiss before combing through his hair quickly.
"What's wrong?" I asked taking my brush and began the tough work of getting rid of my tangles one handed.
"Emmett," he said taking my brush and helped me with my hair on the side I couldn't reach very well.
Ah, Emmett. Edward always dislikes his comments about our sex life. "What did he say this time?" I asked unsure if I really wanted to know.
Edward began wrapping my left wrist and sighed, "Apparently he heard your claim that you were going to cum."
"Oh God," I gasped feeling the blood flow to my cheeks, "He won't say anything in the car will he?" If he announces that in front of Alice, Jasper and Rosalie I will be completely mortified.
"I told him not to, but you know Emmett," Edward grimaced pulling me to the bedroom and helped me into my clothes before he dressed himself. He and I brushed our teeth and then he packed everything away to load up the car.
The boys checked us out of our room and we began to head down the mountain. We were in the car for 30 minutes before Emmett started making his comments totally embarrassing me. Luckily Rosalie got my back and slapped him on the back of his head and told him to leave me alone after the first hour.
The traffic was pretty thick coming down the mountain and got even heavier inside the Denver city limits. I looked out the window to see the tall buildings until we stopped in front of one that said The Brown Palace. We were greeted by a valet who said they would watch our car while we checked in.
Edward opened the door and helped me out of our car leading me over to the sidewalk while we waited for the others to get out. As soon as we were all together we headed into the building. The moment I saw the inside I stopped dead gasping. Edward stopped with me kissing my cheek, "Do you like it?"
The lobby was Victorian style with a ceiling that went up 8 stories. Each floor had a balcony that had cast iron railings with amazing grill work. The furniture in the lobby was Victorian style with a grand piano in the far corner. I took in a ragged breath before answering still mesmerized by the beauty of the atrium lobby, "It's beautiful."
Edward kissed my cheek again, "This hotel has been open since the 1890's. When we were looking for hotels my father told me about this one. He had stayed here a year ago with my mom during one of his medical conventions. As soon as he told me about it I thought of you."
I turned to look in his eyes placing my hand on his cheek, "You did?"
"I know how much you like things in that era and this place was too good to pass up," he grinned.
I stood up on my tip toes and kissed him slowly, "I love you," I breathed.
"I love you too," he breathed taking my right hand in his and brushed his lips across my knuckles, "Come on let's get checked in then we can go get some lunch."
He led me over to the check-in counter where Emmett and Jasper were checking into their rooms. Edward left me with Alice and Rosalie who were sitting in a cluster of chairs not far from the counter and went to join his brothers.
"This place is gorgeous isn't it?" Alice said looking around.
"I agree," I said smiling as I sat down in the chair next to Rosalie.
"I've never stayed in a place quite like this," Rosalie said as she looked around and then her eyes fixed on a spot a floor up. "Oh my God, they have their own spa" she announced and her face lit up immensely.
Alice and I quickly looked up to see what she was seeing. "We are totally going to make appointments for a massage." Alice said and Rosalie nodded. I have never had a massage before and I couldn't understand their drive to want to go to have one but I figured that it must be amazing if they want to go that bad.
Emmett and Jasper came back to join us, "I need to go to the car to get our bags," Emmett said kissing Rosalie. Emmett gave her a key to their room and a little pamphlet. Rosalie looked at the pamphlet and her eyes widened and she jumped up onto Emmett wrapping her legs around him. Emmett staggered at the sudden amount of weight on him chuckling.
Rosalie kissed him fiercely, "I can't believe you got me one," as she released herself slowly till her feet touched the floor.
"It's for both of us," he said, "but I had to change yours to the prenatal and the champagne to the sparkling cider," as his hand rubbed a light circle on her lower stomach.
She smiled at him again and whispered, "I love you, Em."
He kissed her, "I love you," he said, "I'll be back soon with our bags then I can show you just how much," and he pinched her butt making her gasp grinning and then slapped him on the back of the head for what I assumed was for the pinch. Emmett's booming laughter rang through the lobby and he headed for the door.
Jasper was in a total lip lock with Alice as she held that same pamphlet in her hand. They slowly pulled apart, "So I made a good choice?" Jasper said breathless.
"Of course you did," Alice sighed. He kissed her forehead and headed for the door to get their bags as well. Alice turned toward Rosalie and me with the biggest grin on her face. "He got us a couple's massage for tomorrow," she squealed showing us the pamphlet.
"Me too," Rosalie said showing her pamphlet as well.
"I think that this is going to be the better part of our trip," Alice said, "I was a bit skeptical when I realized we were staying in Denver being a New York girl I can't see any other place being as good as New York City for New Year's Eve but with this in mind it may become a contender."
Rosalie and I laughed as the boys entered with our bags. Edward must have gone straight out to get our bags. We hurried over to meet them by the elevators and Edward handed me my key for our room. He kissed my temple just before we entered the elevator and Emmett hit the button for the eighth floor. The elevator doors opened and we all got off Emmett, Rosalie, Jasper and Alice turning to the left and Edward motioned for me to go right.
Edward and I walked a quarter of the way around and stopped in front of room number 812. I looked down from the balcony to the lobby below. Even from up here it looked stunning. Edward placed his hand on top of mine and I turned my head and realized that he had already brought the bags in our room. How long had I been standing there? He kissed my neck and wrapped an arm around my waist, "Have I told you how beautiful you are today?"
"Not that I recall," I grinned holding his arm that was around my waist.
"Well then I'll say it," he kissed the hollow beneath my ear and held me tighter. "You are beautiful."
"You're not so bad yourself," I said turning my head up to kiss his jaw. "This place is just so beautiful, Edward" I said looking down to the lobby again.
"Is it more beautiful than me?" he asked feigning hurt.
I giggled, "Nothing could be as handsome as you."
"Well that's a relief," he said tightening his grip around my waist. "I was afraid I might have to check-out already to get rid of the competition," he chuckled nibbling my ear. I giggled slapping his arm that rested around my waist. "Did you want to see the room before we go get something to eat?" I nodded and he turned us toward the room and unlocked the door guiding me inside.
The room was as gorgeous as the lobby. The walls were a golden brown with a unique white trim that ran along the top and the bottom. The windows had old fashioned curtains that looked to be straight from the late 19th century. The carpet was a burgundy that brought out the color on the gold comforter on the king size bed that had six pillows at the head and cherry wood nightstands on either side. At the foot of the bed was a cushioned bench with cherry wood legs and a burgundy top. In the side area a square cherry wood table with matching chairs sat with a vase of tiger lilies. The bathroom door was opened off to the side and I moved from Edward's hold to get a better look.
The bathroom looked like it had been updated a little to fit the more modern time but was still made to take on the feel of the era. There was a large jetted tub for two in the corner that was next to a large shower that had glass doors. The dual sink had old style faucets and large white fluffy towels folded neatly below the shelves in between. Another bench to the right of the door had two neatly folded his and her bathrobes with slippers to match below.
Edward came up behind me and kissed me at the hollow beneath my ear, "Do you like the room?"
I turned around standing on my tip toes and kissed him trying to covey how much I loved him and that this room was utterly amazing. His arms wrapped around my waist and pulled me closer to him as he met every movement of my lips and tongue. We pulled away for air the both of us finding it hard to fill our lungs enough. "I take it I did good then," he breathed.
I let out an airy laugh, "Yes you did, but you did lie."
His brow furrowed in confusion, "About what?"
"You told Charlie that you had reserved 2 sets of 3 bedroom suites and if I'm not mistaken this is not attached to any more bedrooms," I grinned.
"Oh," he said in understanding, "Well, a little white lie never hurt anybody," he grinned and kissed me. We parted again breathless, "How is your wrist? Do you need some ice for on the way to the restaurant?"
"It's sore but I don't really think that I need to have ice," I said holding my wrist in front of him. "Where are we going?"
"P.F. Chang's," he said, "It's about 10 or so blocks from here. I Map Quested all this before we came to be sure. It's close to the 16th Street Mall that I know Alice and Rosalie will like."
He took his phone out of his pocket after it buzzed and dinged indicating a text message. He looked at it, "It seems that they are ready to go. Are you ready?" I nodded and we left our room hand in hand.
