Chapter 2
Every night after that, Jesse would sneak into Emma's room and be with her. Holding her in his arms, Jesse would start a conversation that they would carry out until they both fell asleep. Early the next morning he would get up, kiss her and leave her room; retreating to his own. During the day Emma and Jesse hung around each other more, and wanted to be paired up as much as possible for missions.
Two months had gone by since the first night Emma and Jesse talked. Much to Emma's relief her powers were under her control again. A few times they all went to a club and to the others Emma was like her old self again. But Jesse knew Emma better than that; he knew she was only acting okay so the others wouldn't bug her about what was wrong.
One morning during breakfast Adam called them all to the lab. They all stopped eating and ran to the lab. Adam saw that they were all there and announced, "A new mutant in Washington needs out help. Brennan, Shalimar, I need you two to come with me. Jesse and Emma I want you two to stay here incase we need back-up. We need to leave right now."
Brennan and Shalimar nodded and headed fro the helix. Adam followed close behind and they took off.
Emma looked at Jesse, "Shal and I were going to go
shopping…but now what am I going to do?
Jesse grinned, "You can still shop. I'll go with you if you want."
Emma looked at him, "You'd go shopping? At the mall? In the stores?"
Jesse pulled her into his arms, "I love being with you Em. I'd do anything just to spend all day with you."
Smiling she said, "Okay lets go then!"
Hours later
They came back with their arms full of bags. Jesse carried them to her room and put them all down.
Emma turned to him, "Thanks Jess. I'll put my clothes away, and then I'm going to meditate for a bit."
Jesse planted a kiss on her forehead, "Okay. I've got some stuff to do anyway. I'll come back later." Smiling like he was up to something he walked out of the room. Emma turned her attention to her bags and began to put stuff away.
Elsewhere in sanctuary
Jesse went to his room and grabbed a few blankets then he went to the garage and took out one last he had left in the trunk earlier. After closing the trunk he made his way to the reflection pool and laid the blankets down on the platform; one on top of the other to make it softer. Once the blankets were all laid out, Jesse unpacked the bag.
Jesse formed a large circle around the blankets with the candles, and he made sure that the candles weren't too close to the blankets. Satisfied that it looked really nice he went to the kitchen and made them dinner; spaghetti. He arranged it on a single plate and took a few strands of spaghetti and wrote out 'I love you Emma'. The rest of the spaghetti was just above that. Carefully he put on the sauce on the portion of the spaghetti that wasn't written out, so she would be able to read it. Quickly grabbing two forks he took it over to the blanket and set it down in the middle. Going back to the kitchen he grabbed two glasses and a bottle of red wine and ran back again.
After pouring the wine he set the glasses down and set the bottle off to the side. Then he went around the circle lighting all of the candles. Before he left to go get Emma, he turned off the lights in all the rooms nearby; leaving a romantically dim glow around the blankets where their dinner was. Smiling, he walked off to Emma's room.
Emma's room
Emma sat cross legged on her bed. A light knock made her jump and she turned around. Jesse came in, "Hey…I made us dinner. Let's go eat, if you're done."
Emma got off her bed. I was waiting for you to come and get me," she said playfully.
Jesse walked over to her and took out a blindfold. "Can I put this on you for a minute or two?"
Emma smiled, "Do you have a surprise for me?
"Yeah and you don't get it unless you let me put this on you."
"Okay Jess." She closed her eyes and waited as he tied the blindfold on. Then she felt him pick her up, "Jesse!"
Jesse laughed, "Relax Em. I just don't want you walking into a wall." He carried her all the way to the reflection pool and stepped between the candles. Once he made his way to the blanket he set her down.
"Oh Jess, what smells so good?"
Slowly Jesse took off the blindfold, "Open your eyes."
Emma did and quickly her eyes adjusted to the dim glow of the candles. "Oh wow…" Her eyes gazed around at all the candles and then fell on the plate of spaghetti.
Jesse sat down on the blanket, "Let's eat!"
Slowly Emma sat down and she saw the spaghetti words. "How sweet! I love you too Jesse." Leaning over the plate she gave him a kiss. Then they both started to eat. "You did all this when I was in my room?"
Jesse grinned, "Yeah. Do you like it?"
"Jess, it's perfect!"
Once they finished eating Jesse took the dishes back to the kitchen and set them in the sink. Then he returned to Emma and sat down next to her. "I'm glad you like it."
Emma looked at him nervously, "Um…what if the others come back?"
"They won't. They're still trying to track down that new mutant," Jesse grinned. When Emma gave him a funny look he continued, "Adam called when we were out. He said they were having trouble finding the kid and so they were going to stay down there, rest and look again in the morning."
"Oh," Emma looked around the circle again. The romantic glow made Emma nervous; but she trusted Jesse and deep down she knew that he would never hurt her.
Noticing her uneasiness he said, "It's okay if you're not ready yet Em. We don't have to do anything tonight."
Emma gazed into his eyes, "Jesse…I want to."
"Okay Emma, but if you want to stop just tell me and I will okay? I don't want you to feel like once we started we have to keep going. No matter how far we get okay?" His face was full of love and concern.
Emma nodded, "Okay Jess." Leaning forward she kissed him sweetly on the lips. Jesse wrapped his arms around her and the kiss grew more intense. Their tongues caressed each other's in such a way that it sent shivers through their bodies.
They continued to kiss for a long time without going any further. A thought came to Emma that maybe Jesse was waiting for her to signal that it was okay to keep going. As they kissed Emma paused fro a moment to take off Jesse's shirt. Then she continued to kiss him.
Jesse's hands slowly removed Emma's top and he started kissing her neck. He could feel her pulse speed up as he was kissing her. Reaching around Emma he unhooked her bra and took it off. Still kissing her he laid her down on the blankets. He trailed kisses from her neck down to her chest. Emma closed her eyes as her senses were lit on fire.
Jesse started kissing and caressing her breasts. His touch was so gentle, Emma didn't want him to stop. When Jesse sucked on one she moaned in pleasure. After a few minutes he turned his attention to her other one, giving it the same treatment.
Then he moved back up her body and kissed her passionately. While his pips were on hers, his hands moved down to her zipper. When he started undoing her pants Emma squirmed under him and broke off the kiss, "Jesse…no…" she whispered.
Even though her cry was soft he heard her, stopped was he was doing and got off of her fast. Looking at her face he noticed that she was paler than normal, "You okay?" He helped her sit up.
"I'm sorry Jess…this is so nice and I love it…I do. But…" she started to cry.
"Oh Emma," Jesse grabbed her shirt and put it back on her. Then he pulled her into a hug. "But what," he urged on softly.
"But…being on the ground, even with the blankets and candles, I just…" she drew in a breath, "I just see myself on the ground like before…"
Jesse held onto her tightly, "Oh Emma, I wasn't thinking. I'm sorry." Gently he stroked her hair and rubbed her back. They continued to sit there while he comforted her.
Emma finally broke the silence, "Did I ruin it?"
"No. Of course you didn't. I told you it's okay if we stop. I'll wait forever until you're ready Emma. I mean it." Jesse kissed the top of her head.
"No what I meant was um…can we go in my room? If you um…still want to I mean. Because I do and if I'm in my bed I'll be more comfortable," Emma gave him a small smile.
"If you're really sure you want to then yes. But only if you're really sure. I told you I can wait, I don't want you to feel like we have to now," he said.
"Jesse, I'm really sure I want this. I want you," Emma kissed him lightly on the lips. When she pulled back she smiled, "Um…"
Jesse looked at her, "What is it Em?"
"Can we do the candle thing in my room," a blush spread across her features returning her color to her once again.
Jesse laughed, "We can do whatever you want."
They blew out the candles and gathered up everything. First they dropped off the blankets in Jesse's room. Then they went to Emma's room. She put her bra on the floor figuring everything else would end up there too. As she sat on the bed she watched Jesse set up the candles around her room. Quickly he lit them, shut her door and locked it. Turning off the lights he walked over to her bed. The soft glow and the feel of her bed comforted Emma.
Jesse climbed on the bed and started kissing her again. One by one each piece of clothing was discarded until everything was on the floor. Gently he laid her down on the bed. He left a trail of kisses all over her neck, and his hands ran over her body. Capturing her lips with his, he put his hand in between her legs. Slowly Jesse inserted two fingers inside her and started moving his hand.
Emma gasped, she didn't expect him to do that. The pace began to go faster and she let out a moan, as an orgasm washed over her. Removing his fingers Jesse opened her legs wider.
Smiling he said, "If you liked that then I think you'll like this too." Jesse started kissing his way down her body. Suddenly Emma felt him kissing her wetly, and her breathing became more rapid. "Oh Jesse…" Emma couldn't say anything else as she came racing over the edge.
When he felt her relax again, Jesse moved back up her body leaving kisses everywhere. "How was that?"
"Really good…" She kissed him passionately.
Jesse was unsure if he should go farther or wait; so he waited. As Jesse was kissing her he let his hands move all over her body as if he was memorizing every inch of her soft skin.
"Jesse…" she said in between kisses, "I want you now…please."
Kissing her one last time he positioned himself. Emma looked and noticed how big he was. She closed her eyes and whimpered softly.
Jesse noticed the quick change and touched her face, "Only if you want me to."
Emma's voice was small and she was still trying to catch her breath from before, "Be gentle."
Kissing her sweetly on her lips he said, "I'll never hurt you. I'll be real gentle."
Emma knew that he would never hurt her, but he was so big she was afraid. Drawing in a breath she said, "I want you Jesse."
Tenderly he kissed her on the lips. Then he slowly entered her, being careful he didn't hurt her. Once Jesse was all the way in he stayed like that, without moving in her. Emma's whole body trembled. Jesse looked at her with concern, "You okay?"
"Yes," she kissed him.
Slowly Jesse moved rhythmically inside her, he wanted to slowly build up the pace so he could last as long as possible. Emma started to move her hips with him, and both of them started moaning as pleasure filled their senses. Emma came once more but Jesse was holding out. Passion soon overtook them both and their pace grew faster with need.
Jesse knew he wasn't wearing protection, it was in his pants pocket which was on the floor. He knew that if he let go inside her she could easily be pregnant. And that was the last thing they needed; a baby in sanctuary. "Em…I have to stop," he started to slow down the pace.
"No, I want to feel you. Please Jess…I'm saying that it's okay." She continued to move with him.
Jesse nodded and quickly sped up again. This time they both came together and Emma closed her eyes as she felt him let go inside her. Once Jesse felt Emma's orgasm end he slid out of her. Both of their bodies were covered with a shiny layer of sweat. Kissing her one last time Jesse moved next to her. After pulling the covers over both of them, Jesse wrapped his arms around Emma's body and pulled her close to him that he was hugging her.
Gazing into Emma's eyes he said, "I love you Emma." And he planted a kiss on her forehead.
Smiling at him Emma said, "I love you too Jesse. That was perfect, like a dream or something."
Jesse grinned, "It was real Emma. And you should always have it be perfect, you don't deserve anything less. I told you I'd protect you with my life, and I wont let anything bad happen to you again. And I'm going to keep that promise." Kissing her lightly on the lips he said, "Em?"
Emma moved closer to him, "Yeah Jess?"
"Can I keep you?" He looked at her, nervously awaiting her answer.
Emma felt her heart stop, "What?" *Did he just ask what I think he did?"
Smiling he brushed a hair out of her face, "Can I keep you? Forever?"
A smile spread across Emma's face, "Yes Jess…you to keep me forever." She leaned in and kissed him passionately.
Gazing into her eyes one last time Jesse said, "When we get up we'll look for a ring and set a date to make it official."
That only got a bigger smile out of Emma. "Oh I can't wait!" Kissing him again she said, "Goodnight Jesse."
"Wait there's one more thing…"
"What is it Jess?"
He looked at the clock, it read 12:15am. "Happy Valentine's Day."
Emma grinned, "This gives a whole new meaning to the words 'Be mine.' I like it. Happy Valentine's Day Jess."
Kissing her one last time he shut his eyes and they both slipped into peaceful dreams
