Chapter FIFTY TWO
Sami rolled onto her side and looked down at her sleeping husband. They'd made it out of the bath tub at last when her fingers and toes had gone all wrinkly and had finally made it to the bed. She smiled at the memory…
oooOOOOooo
Sami pulled the terry towelling bathrobe around her more tightly and walked out from the bathroom into the bedroom.
"You know EJ," she said slowly, "I just realised something…"
"That you're insatiable?" he said teasingly, repeating their earlier conversation but their roles reversed.
"Oh no," she said blithely, "I knew that."
EJ laughed out loud then and she joined in.
"So my darling wife…," he said affectionately, walking up to her and putting his arms around her.
He hadn't bothered with putting on anything after their bath and was gloriously and unashamedly naked. EJ really didn't embarrass easily… not that he had anything to be embarrassed about of course Sami noted appreciatively.
"What is it you've realised?" he asked her, kissing the side of her neck as he did, breathing the fresh smell of her.
"I've realised that despite us being here for hours already…" she pondered, tilting her head to one side and letting him gain better access to her neck, "… that we still haven't made love in a bed yet."
EJ straightened up then and suddenly looked deeply concerned.
"Really?" he asked her, looking very serious now, "Are you sure darling?"
"Pretty much," she nodded, trying not to smile and ruin their game.
"Hmm," he said, momentarily releasing her so he could check for himself, "Let's see… there was the first time in the elevator…"
EJ ticked off each of their love making sessions on his fingers as he went and Sami couldn't stop herself from giving a giggle at the concentration on his face.
"Then there was your little… ah… act of mercy shall we say just inside the door of our room," continued on EJ.
"Aha," said Sami, trying to be as serious as he was being.
"Then there was that thing you did with your foot over dinner…," he mused, counting off another finger.
"Are we counting that?" she asked him with a raised eyebrow and a little smirk.
"I'm counting that," he said very sagely and then gave her a cheeky wink.
"Well in that case I'm going to count what you did with your hand when we were dancing," said Sami, folding her arms in front of herself and pursing her lips challengingly.
"Samantha," said EJ, feigning affront, "I'll have you know I was a perfect gentleman during the waltz - I won't have you besmirch my reputation like this!"
"I meant during the tango," she said and arched a vaguely accusing eyebrow at him.
"Oh," he said with a sheepish grin, "Well yes, I was a bit naughty during that I have to admit… but I don't remember hearing any complaints from you my dear."
"It wasn't a complaint," she said, the corners of her mouth turning up, "I'm just saying you should count it."
"Fair enough," nodded EJ and stuck up another finger, "Now where was I… oh yes… next was the elevator… again."
Sami nodded and despite herself felt a little blush touch her cheeks, they really had been a little out of control with that one.
"… the bath tub," he persisted and then frowned, "Oh, you're right darling - we haven't made love in a bed yet. That's terrible!"
"It is, isn't it," nodded Sami, feigning great concern.
She gave a hopeless shake of her head then.
"It only there was something we could do about it," she sighed, looking deeply troubled.
"Mm," nodded EJ, pretending to be thinking hard about this problem as well as he pulled her back into his arms, "Perhaps if we put our heads together we can come up with a solution eh darling?"
"Perhaps…" purred Sami, pulling out of his arms again and undoing the tie of her bathrobe, letting the robe drop to the floor unneeded now.
EJ's avid gaze was immediately running all over her naked body and Sami yet again thrilled at the power she had over him.
"… if we put other parts of our body together instead…" she suggest throatily as she then moved back into his arms, "… we can just… come?"
"Oh my," said EJ, swallowing hard, feeling his desire for this woman that was always bubbling away under the surface burst into life yet again, "My wife is a genius."
"Yes she is Mr DiMera," Sami purred, going up on her toes to kiss him, "Yes she is…"
oooOOOOooo
EJ stirred in his sleep a little and moved so that he was lying more squarely on his back. He was naked of course as she was except for a sheet pulled up to his hips. She knew she should let him sleep - he'd more than earned it after all but Sami was too happy to sleep and the truth be told she just couldn't get enough of him tonight. EJ began to whistle quietly in his sleep and Sami giggled, wondering if he even knew he did that. It was so cute. He moved again slightly and the whistling stopped and Sami shook her head at him. She put her hand out and rested it on his chest, feeling the vibration of his steadily beating heart through her palm. She moved her fingers back and forth through the light smattering of chest hair that was there. Her hand moved a little lower than, fingers splaying out along the flat expanse of his stomach which felt rock hard even in sleep. He was absolutely the most beautiful man she'd ever seen and to think that he was all hers still made Sami's mind boggle a bit.
Now that she'd started touching him she found that she couldn't stop. Sami's hand moved under the sheet, hand softly moving over the flat angles of his lower stomach now. Ever lower her hand drifted until her fingers were gently stroking the length of his still sleeping member. Sami watched his face for any sign of him being aware of what she was doing. EJ's face took on a decidedly boyish expression when he slept. In fact she saw a great deal of Johnny in her husbands sleeping countenance and felt a surge of love go through her at the thought. EJ had impossibly long eyelashes that were particularly evident as he lay sleeping and both of the twins had inherited that physical attribute. There daughter in particular was going to be grateful for that little gift later on in life when it came to fluttering them at boys… which would of course drive EJ insane… ironic when you thought about it really.
EJ was still soundly asleep but under her hand she could feel another part of him come to life. She knew she should really let him sleep but Sami wanted him again and didn't think she could wait until the morning even though it was only a few hours away now. Somehow she didn't think that EJ would mind if she took matters into her own hand. Sami moved so that she was kneeling over him, one leg on either of his. She bent down then and began to press kisses on his chest and moved down to his hard stomach. Her blonde hair trailed along his skin as well and EJ stirred a little, the soft sensation piercing his subconscious vaguely.
Sami's body ached for his touch as her tongue licked at his skin now, her nipples painfully tight as they craved his ministrations. As though on cue EJ's hands came up and cupped her breasts for her even though he was still mostly asleep. Sami gave a pleased little moan as he began to massage them for her even as he slept. It looked like the twins weren't the only ones who'd gotten him well trained she thought with a smirk. She moved so that she was on all fours now, hands at his shoulders, knees on either side of his hips. Sami still held herself off him, their only contact at the moment was his hands on her breast.
"Nipples," she growled instruction into his ear and he instantly complied, finding the hardened peaks and beginning to pull and tweak them just as she liked.
Even semi unconscious he was the best she'd ever had at stimulating her and Sami felt her body respond instantly, pushing new wetness out of her body, already more than ready for him. Her hand reached down between their bodies, fingers wrapping around his already impressively hard shaft and began to encourage him to thicken even further. They both let out moans then and EJ finally began to wake up. He blinked groggily up at Samantha, trying to focus on her just above him in the dim light. He could feel the delicious weight of her breasts in his palms already and her hand wrapped around his now throbbing length and gave another moan of pure joy.
"Samantha!" he groaned, squeezing his eyes shut and pushing his hard on up into her hand more, "God yes sweetheart!"
"I want you inside me EJ," she said breathlessly, the request sounding almost urgent now.
"Yes!" he hissed, moving so quickly that she was a bit caught off guard as he grabbed her and flipped her over, suddenly on top of her.
In one fluid movement he pushed her legs apart and entered her, wringing strangled gasps from them both.
"So perfect," he choked through gritted teeth, "Every time I'm inside you it's so damn perfect Samantha!"
"Yes," she nodded helplessly, her eyes wide as she felt the last of him slide home inside her, "Oh god EJ… I think there is something wrong with us! How can I want you this much all the time? It's driving me crazy!"
"If there is I don't want the cure," he told her, just as desperate as she was despite having only woken up seconds ago.
EJ moved all of the way out of her before pushing back into her - he groaned, she whimpered.
"More," she gasped, hands grasping at his shoulders now, "Don't ever stop EJ, give me more!"
The initial wildness of their passion had been finally spent from all their earlier love making so it allowed them the luxury of time now and they took it, even as they took each other. EJ would let the pace build between them, the promise of release tantalisingly close and then Sami would get him to slow in his strokes inside her until he almost wasn't moving, letting them both calm down a bit before continuing. They repeated this so many times that they lost count. His penetrations of her becoming increasingly urgent until they were almost there and then the slowing down period, all the while their arousal was growing in depth and urgency.
Sweat began to drip from EJ's body down onto Sami's as he laboured inside of her, using every piece of will power he had to continue in their dance for as long as he could. His body was in agony from all of the friction and his own arousal and could only imagine that Sami was feeling the same but still she would hold on, making him stop his increasingly frantic movements inside of her until she was sure they were both under control again. At some point EJ was convinced he actually lost his mind from wanting her so badly but he was helplessly in her thrall, obeying her every command until eventually he just couldn't take it anymore. He'd gotten so close last time that he almost cried when she pulled on his hips, making him slow down again.
"Please," he begged her desperately, somehow managing to bring himself back under control again but he knew he wouldn't be able to again, he was done and there was no way he was going to be able to stop again once she let him start moving in her again, "I have to come… please sweetheart… let me come!"
Sami grabbed his sweaty hand and pulled him down into a hard kiss, loving to hear the utter desperation in his voice, it getting her even wetter if that was possible at this point. She'd tortured them both for long enough and she needed it to end now too. She broke the kiss and nodded her head at him.
"Yes," she said breathlessly, holding his gaze, "Oh yes EJ."
EJ gave a grateful sob, beginning to thrust himself hard and deep into her. His body took completely over now and he had no control now that he knew he wouldn't have to stop again until he was finally done.
"Oh god!" he gasped helplessly, his hips moving almost violently against her, intent on claiming his prize for his endurance, "Oh god YES!"
Sami wrapped her legs around his waist, urging him on, loving how she could make him lose his mind so utterly like this. EJ wanted to watch her release as much as he wanted to find his own but he knew that he wouldn't be able to focus on anything else other than his own climax with the state she'd worked him into.
"I want… want to see you!" he pleaded with her desperately and Sami knew immediately what he meant by that and tried to hang on for a little longer.
"Yes," she panted, hoping she could do it now, watching him climax nearly always sent her over the edge as well but she would do her best to wait for him.
EJ made a choked grunting sound then, letting go of the last strands of self control he had at her promise. He plunged himself deeply into her one last time and came incredibly hard, harder than he had all night in fact and that was really saying something. Sami bit her lip and tried to hold on as she felt him surge wildly into her, the feeling of his hot seed gushing into her waiting cavern making her tremble and want to come so badly. As did the way he was shuddering and grunting her name helplessly, her body screaming at her to let it join him in his pleasure but still she hung on, waiting for him to come to his senses so he could watch her.
The full weight of him collapsing tiredly against her told her that he was at last done, his sweaty head dropped on her chest as he dragged in lung fulls of desperately needed air after that marathon session of love making but Sami couldn't wait any longer.
"Oh thank you, thank you," he praised her shakily, face buried in her breasts, "Oh god, that was so unbelievable!"
"EJ!" she complained, starting to move under him, her hips thrusting up against him even as he still maintained his place inside of her, glad she'd pleased him but having a rather pressing need of her own.
EJ lifted his head and saw the urgent need in her eyes and gave a little shudder of anticipation knowing he was going to be able to watch her orgasm now. She was always so gorgeous in the throes of passion and it amazed him that she'd been able to control herself during all of that. He kissed her then, slow and deep, his tongue finding hers. Meanwhile his hand had moved between their bodies and finding her nub he began to pleasure it for her. Sami moaned into their kiss, arching her neck as he stimulated the incredibly sensitised bud for her.
She couldn't breath as he wouldn't break the kiss and her breathing was so ragged from the desire that was about to peak. Sami's head began to spin from lack of oxygen and her own arousal so that when her body finally granted her that ultimate release she screamed from the pleasure of it all. Her core pulsated wildly and radiated out to her entire body so that she could feel the pulses even at the ends of her hair it was that intense, so intense in fact that she actually fainted from it all.
Sami came to a couple of seconds later to see EJ's vaguely anxious face above hers and she blinked dazedly, trying to work out what had just happened. Her body was still throbbing pleasurably and she was unbearably conscious of the fact that she still had EJ between her legs, clamped deep inside of her as she pleasured them both with her continuing contractions. EJ cupped her face with the hand that had caused her conniptions in the first place and she could smell her own juices on his fingers and felt another little volley of spasms go through her, making them both groan.
"Samantha?" he asked her unevenly, when he could speak again, "Sweetheart… are you alright?"
"Oh god," she gasped, closing her eyes and dropping her head tiredly back on the bed as a slow smile moved over her face, "I am sooo alright EJ."
EJ had to laugh at the dreamy way she said that and had to agree, he knew exactly how she felt. He cupped her face and kissed her tenderly, both of them slipping back into an exhausted sleep.
oooOOOOooo
It was morning now and EJ and Sami had actually let each other get a couple hours of sleep at long last but now they were both awake again and currently indulging in a rather heavy make out session. They were both on their sides, legs entwined as they kissed and cuddled the morning away, enjoying the luxury of not having to get up and tend to the twins needs… only their own. Sami finally managed to break away from his heated kisses eventually though and say something.
"EJ," she began breathlessly.
"Samantha," he returned just as unevenly and moved back to claim her mouth again but she stalled him.
"Wait," she said and had to laugh then when she saw him pout, "I have something I want to talk to you about EJ."
"You shouldn't talk with your mouth full sweetheart," he teased her as he went to kiss her, tongue ready to take up it's position inside her mouth again, "It's rude."
"Stop it!" she laughed and turned her head so that his kiss ended up on her cheek instead and he groaned his complaint.
"Alright," he sighed in mock disappointment, "What is it you want to talk to me about darling?"
Sami lay back on the bed and turned a little away from him so she wouldn't be tempted by his gorgeousness first thing in the morning. She lay there as he snuggled up beside her, a big smile on her face.
"Last night was great wasn't it?" she asked him, "I mean you enjoyed yourself right?"
"How can you even ask me that Samantha?!" asked EJ with a groan and shook his head, "I spent half the night screaming my head off!"
"You did seem pretty enthusiastic," agreed Sami with a giggle.
"As did you my love," he grinned back at her, kissing her shoulder playfully.
"Yeah well," she giggled, "I was just being polite."
"I've always said you've have excellent manners my darling," he said and she could feel his smile against her shoulder.
"When have you ever said that?" she snorted, "If anything you're always correcting my manners EJ!"
"I don't know if requesting you put down the flaming kebab stick you're about to throw at Nicole's head in a crowded restaurant can be classified as correcting your manners," he said with a wry chuckle, "More of a vain attempt at avoiding having to bail you out of prison at some point in our evening's out."
"You make it sound worse than it was," she sniffed and then reached behind him and smacked his thigh, "And remember the rule - no talking about Nicole in our bed!"
"But we're not in our bed," he pointed out reasonably, a smile on his lips, rather hoping for another smack.
"Okay how's this then?" said Sami with a roll of her eyes at her husband's penchant for being pedantic, "No mention of Nicole anytime you're hoping for sex - how does that grab you EJ?!"
"Mm," he pondered what she'd said and snuggled closer, throwing his leg over hers under the sheets, "I'd rather you grabbed me Mrs DiMera."
She looked back over her shoulder to see the cheeky grin he was sporting and tried not to laugh.
"No!" she said when he went to swoop in to claim a kiss, "I haven't said what I wanted to ask you yet!"
"Oh," said EJ in surprise, "I thought that the question was about how great last night was."
"No," said Sami with a smile, "That was more of an observation really."
"Well the suspense is killing me," said EJ with a raised eyebrow, "What's your question darling?"
"I was thinking," Sami began, biting on her lower lip a little nervously now, "This time together has just been simply amazing EJ, the sex has been…"
"Life altering?" he suggested, looking at her adoringly, "Mind blowing, euphoric…"
"Yes," she laughed, sensing that he was going to go on endlessly if she didn't stop him, "It's always breath takingly good when we've waited isn't it? So I was thinking… why don't we wait until our wedding night before we make love again? You know, build the suspense between us again."
EJ blinked and then blinked again, not answering her immediately.
"But it's November 29th today," he reminded her.
"I know," nodded Sami, looking at him hopefully.
"Our wedding isn't until December 24th," continued on EJ, sounding strangely calm.
"I know," repeated Sami, trying to read is expression.
"That's 25 days," calculated EJ, almost to himself, "That's six hundred hours without being able to make love to you Samantha."
"Wow!" said Sami, her eyes widening in amazement, "You worked that out really fast EJ!"
"I'm highly motivated at the moment," said EJ dryly wondering if she actually understood what she was asking of him.
EJ shook his head, trying to wrap his head around this suggestion of Sami's.
"So to recap," said EJ slowly, propped up on his elbow as they lay together in bed, "You lure me to this hotel, seduce the crap out of me…"
"Oh," said Sami dryly, with a roll of her eyes, "You make that sound so beautiful EJ - I'm so glad that fancy education of yours is finally paying off."
"… give me a night of the most mind blowing sex I've ever had the great joy to experience," he continued on, ignoring her teasing, "And then at the end of it when I'm unsure if I will ever let you leave this bed again because all these last blissful hours of unfettered lovemaking have succeeded in doing is make me want you more than ever before…"
Sami smiled at that and had to admit she knew how he felt.
"… and you're asking me if it would be alright…" he continued on carefully, "Now that you have me in a frenzy of want and need… if we don't have sex again for another six hundred hours. Have I understood that correctly Samantha?"
"Um," Sami shrugged, knowing it sounded a little crazy when he said it like that, "Pretty much, yes EJ."
EJ held her gaze steadily and wondered if this woman would ever cease to amaze him - he rather imagined and hoped not.
"Samantha," said EJ straight faced, scratching at his chin with one finger and looking down at her, "You do remember that my father disinherited me don't you?"
"Yes," she frowned, wondering why he was bringing that up suddenly, "Of course, why?"

"Well I just wanted to make sure that you knew that there was no point to putting me into an early grave," he said quite seriously, "There is no money in it for you."
"EJ," she laughed at him, "No one ever died from not having sex you know!"
"That's because they hadn't met you sweetheart," he said, still looking very solemn, "I think making love to my wife on a very regular basis has become a necessity for living for me now… like water and oxygen."
"Oh," smiled Sami and gave him a quick kiss, "That is so sweet EJ - a complete load of BS but still, sweet BS."
"Alright," he complained, "I may not actually die - it will just feel like death!"
"EJ," wheedled Sami, "It will be hard for me too. I want you… all the time, every minute of every day I want you. Sometimes when you're at work and I know I can't have you right there and then I go to our bed and lie down in it. I smell you all around me and it's like you're there and I lie back and…"
"Okay Samantha," he said, his voice cracking a little on her name as he began to look a little distressed now, "Just so you know sweetheart, the mental image of you in our bed fantasising about me when I'm at work is in no way helping your case for self imposed abstinence… in fact it's getting me quite hard just hearing you talk about it."
"Oh," said Sami ruefully and could feel proof of his words against her thigh, "Sorry."
"So you really want to do this?" asked EJ with a little frown, knowing he'd find the strength from somewhere if she asked him to.
"Last night was so amazing EJ," she said softly, "Having to wait like that just made everything so much more…"
Sami faltered to find the right words and he smiled tenderly at her, knowing what she meant.
"I know," he said quietly, "It was extraordinary - it always is when we come back together after being apart."
"I jut thought it would make our wedding night special," said Sami wistfully, "I mean, I know it's not really our wedding night because we're already married and everything but our actual wedding night you spent in surgery fighting for you're life. I just wanted to make this one extra special for us."
"Anytime with you is extra special Samantha," EJ told her with a warm smile, looking at her adoringly, "And I agree, the waiting for each other makes it even more so."
"So…?" said Sami hesitantly, looking at him through her lashes, "Is that a yes?"
"I know there is going to be a thousand times I am going to regret saying this," he smiled at her, "But yes Samantha, no more sex until the wedding, I promise."
"Really?" asked Sami, her face lighting up although later she too would wonder what the hell she'd been thinking when the realities of not having sex with EJ kicked in but right now she was on a high from their extended lovemaking session and felt like she could do anything, "Oh EJ!"
Sami threw her arms around his neck and began kissing him wildly all over his face.
"Thank you, thank you!" she said happily whilst he laughed at her enthusiasm.
EJ doubted she'd thought this through properly yet as had he but all EJ knew for sure was that there was going to be a lot of running, swimming and gym time in his immediate future somehow.
"So let's just get the rules straight here shall we darling?" he said laughingly when she finally stopped raining kisses down on him, "So by no sex do you just mean actual intercourse but we can still fool around…?"
"Nothing that leads to orgasms," said Sami with a definite shake of her head.
"Tricky," mused EJ, pursing his lips, "Because just looking at you makes me want to come… I do hope I don't have to wear a blind fold for the next six hundred hours."
"No blind folds," she laughed, "We can kiss but I'm drawing the line at any below the waist activity, you and I both know we won't be able to help ourselves if we start down that track."
"True," sighed EJ and then gave her a suddenly devilish look, "So when exactly does the moratorium on sex begin Samantha?"
"Oh," said Sami thoughtfully but with a little smile on her face when she saw the twinkle in his eyes and knew what he was thinking, "I'd say definitely when we get home."
"So we're not home yet though," he pointed out hopefully.
Sami looked around their hotel room and then back down at EJ.
"You know," she said laughingly, "You make an excellent point EJ."
"I do don't I," grinned EJ and closed the distance between them, capturing her lips in playful kiss, "So I'd better make this count."
"Yes you had," she giggled, melting into the kiss, "Yes you had Mr DiMera."
