However just a few days later, Lilly wasn't that thrilled to even be eating dinner with Eddie. Somehow it was Nicholas who had invited him to dinner; which was something she knew he had wanted. While eating, Eddie sat there talking to their son about his job and all the odd characters he had encountered. In the middle of it, Lilly sipped some red wine; while feeling annoyed that her ex was even sitting at her table.
"Are you better than Mommy is", asked Nicholas?
Eddie shook his head, "No I think Mommy is a better cop than I am", seeing two blue eyes looking at him, still mad for what had transpired between them. Upon getting up and placing his plate on top of the counter he then leaned over, kissing Lilly's cheek. Her face was one of annoyance; but watched as Eddie then kissed both Nicholas and Samantha.
Later on as Lilly was tucking Nicholas into bed, he then lay there looking at her, "Are you sad Mommy"?
"Yes I am", she said.
He moved closer, "About Daddy", looking sympathically like his father. Upon give him a kiss, Lilly then proceeded to push the covers up closer towards him, " Daddy and I both love you and Samantha a lot", knowing that Eddie did in fact truly love their kids.
After kissing him goodnight, she then did the same to Samantha before closing the door. Letting out a small sigh, Lilly did in fact feel alone again; but an hour later somehow he came back. Right away, he then followed her into the bedroom; noticing the lingerie that she had now on underneath her robe. It was light blue with spaghetti straps, but it looked alluring on her.
His eyes now beaming of lust, while his hand gently rested on the side of Lilly's cheek. Very slowly, Eddie's lips brushed softly against hers. With a slight moan flowing through her mouth, she then lay back as his mouth smothered hers.
While Eddie continued his motions on her lips, his hands feverishly slipped off of negligee; while feeling her hands gently trying to unbutton his jeans. As he leaned back to strip, Lilly sat up pulling him closure to her lips; once again.
Once undressed, Eddie then pulled both of her legs upward motion; so that they were now resting behind his head. With a moments blink, he then slid in; thrusting harder and deeper into her. Lilly threw her head back in pleasure, while shifting her body as Eddie plummeted deep into her core. With their lips melting together; breaths growing heavier; and hearts beating faster; they knew that they still loved each other a lot.
"Lilly", he whispered in heavy pants, while continued to kiss both her mouth and neck. Lilly moaned before Eddie increased his speed dramatically, causing her hips to thrust even harder against his, to the point he knew he was in deep.
His panting grew heavier with each thrust, before sending Lilly into probably the most intense hardest climax that she hadn't experienced before. Her body shook while gasping for air, while her muscles clenched harder against him.
Still the two kept on moving in the same speed, as Eddie's grunts grew louder. His breathing deepened, before looking directly into her eyes as he came hard; deep inside of her. Soon after Eddie's body stopped shaking he then collapsed next to her; as Lilly's ran her hand through his hair.
"God Eddie", she breathed, "That was incredible", still feeling the intense rhythmic beatings of her heart.
Eddie opened up his eyes before leaning closer to kiss her, "I love you Lil, but I want another chance with you. I did rush the married thing, we can wait"; removing a tendril of hair from her eyes, "Having a family is something I always had wanted, you gave me that".
Lilly then rolled over; now looking into his eyes, " I can't make mistakes knowing that it's going to hurt them", as Eddie saw the fear, " You and are going to work this out; for them", telling her that he was serious about wanting to get back together.
Giving her another kiss, Eddie then slid off the bed; while watching her putting back on her negligee. However it was guilty that was racking his mind, as he then redressed; seeing that Lilly wanted him to stay.
"I'll call you tomorrow", he said.
However Lilly then got up before they shared another series of long kisses, "You still come over for Nicky's birthday dinner next week"?
"Wouldn't miss it, my buddy's turning five", he replied, "Odd that we now have five month old and a five year old to be".
Lilly gave a small smile, "Where are you staying", wanting him to stay with her. She knew that they both had experienced cold feet, so to speak. Underneath they still were in love with each other, plus Eddie wasn't the type to abandon their kids anyways. This relationship could be saved; since neither one of them were wishing it to be really over.
"At some hotel, could have sworn I saw Valens there last night with that girl from the ID Unit".
She groaned, "Frankie", rolling her eyes before Eddie kissed her, "I love you", as he then took out his keys before closing the door behind. Just moments after hearing the front door locking; she realized that Eddie had slid his spare key underneath when he first had left.
Perhaps things were looking up for her, but just as Lilly was going to bed; her body felt very good; a little too good now. Eddie was the reason for that; now she just wanted to lie there in his arms but couldn't.
Somehow on the night of their son's birthday, Nicholas didn't seem as if he had wanted to blow out the candles on his cake. Eddie knew the exact reason, but found this moment to formally ask Lilly to take him back; getting one knee he then looked up at her.
"Will you take me back, Lilly", holding out her engagement ring, "I promise I'll be a better man to you and a better dad to them".
Lilly let out a breath, as Eddie spoke softly, "The Day we reunited Max Chapin with his mother, I looked at you knowing how much I already cared about you. A part of me already knew that you and I were meant for each other".
Nicholas also turned around, "Please Mommy, I want Daddy back", as the two saw that they had both hurt the two people they loved so much. Both of them knew it was only right, but also the two promised already that they would work on their problems.
With a nod off acceptance, Eddie then slid the ring down her finger; before kissing her lips; just as Nicholas was blowing out the candles.
"I think he got his wish", whispered Lilly, before picking up Samantha into her arms, "Hey you", seeing her smiling at her, before blowing raspberries on her stomach. As she laughed, Eddie also blew a few as well.
"It's my birthday", yelled Nicholas as he then crossed his arms. Lilly shook her head, "He's all you".
Just two months later on Valentine's Day, Lilly felt slightly saddened that she wasn't being married today. Deep down she knew it was better than they were going to wait; but somehow they had three days alone without the kids; adding to the spice and love.
