I roused from my dream and shivered as I was diverted back to reality. I was nude with nothing over me, not even bed sheets. I opened my eyes to see Erik tangled in the sheets with his back to me.
"Sheet hogger," I snarled playfully while trying to pull the sheets from under his muscular body.
Erik turned around still closing his eyes and seized my wrist. He rolled around until he was on top of me. At first I believed he was still asleep and laughed but then he began blowing my neck. I pounded his arm muscles to try and force him to stop and tried to hide my laughter. He only smiled with his eyes still closed.
He opened his eyes. I smiled at his dreamy green gaze. He wasn't wearing a mask. I had told him to take it off. I had grown used to his deformity. Before I had found myself wanting to adjust the tattered pieces of skin but now I liked it this way. I loved that he had flaws as well as strong points.
Erik got up and retrieved a small blue leather pouch from his desk ignoring the fact that he was naked. I bit my thumb nail and grinned. When he came back he snuggled back under the covers and turned to me. He handed the pouch to me and waited for me to open it. I looked at him and he only waited.
I removed the bag and inside was a tiny gray box. I looked at him once more. He was still waiting for me. I slowly opened the box. I nearly closed it before opening it all the way when the candlelight reflected off of something shiny inside. I knew what it was. Inside was a gorgeous silver ring. It had a pattern of amethyst that was in the shape of a rose and in the middle of the rose was an enormous diamond. I gasped.
"How on earth did you afford this?" I asked as my mouth fell open.
"Don't think of it," He whispered and placed a finger on my lips. I kissed his finger which was something he didn't expect but made him smile. He took the ring and tried to slip it on my ring finger. Even my fingers had grown from the pregnancy. He slipped it on my pinky instead. It was a perfect fit. Before he could move his hand away I folded my hand around three of his fingers. Even his pinky was larger then my entire hand. I began to feel every line on his fingers. I raised his hand to my cheek and slid it down to my chin allowing him to feel my skin. He closed his eyes savoring my touch. Then, I laid his hand on my stomach.
"Can you feel her move?" I asked.
He opened his eyes and stared with amazement at the child stirring in my belly. Then he kissed my cheek. I grabbed his face before he could lean back and turned to face him. I forced his large tender lips onto mine. He was surprised at first but then his eyes narrowed with a mix of playfulness and lust.
"Can't get enough of me can you?" He asked pinning me to the bed before kissing me again.
I laughed at his comment and shouted. "No I want more!"
I twirled bits of his hair around my finger as he kissed me slowly and smoothly.
"When this child comes out we are making up for lost time," I said raising my eyebrows. He smiled at my comment and tried not to laugh.
I sat up and looked around. I wondered how he could leave this all behind. I knew that he had to be a little upset. I turned back at him.
"Aren't you going to miss all of this?" I asked with a concerned look on my face. He turned so our eyes met.
"There are some memories that I would love to leave in this place," he said. He gazed at the ground and when he looked back at me his eyes were filled with sadness.
"What do you wish to bring?" I asked. My eyes traveled the room.
"I only wish to bring my organ," He said. I smiled at the sound of his deep voice.
"If you can find a way to sneak it to the new house," I said giving him a less than convinced face. I then realized that he had brought all these items down here before. I would do well to remember there are very few things this man can not do.
Erik stood up and hopped into his pants. I fell back and laughed at the site of him hopping around so foolishly. He only kissed me once more and grabbed a blue button up long sleeved shirt. I stood back and admired his chest. He noticed I was staring at him when he reached the last few buttons then stopped buttoning his shirt. I smirked at him. He knew what I wanted.
"We have a lot of packing to do," He said shaking his head at my promising expression.
"Just a taste," I said unbuttoning his shirt and letting his chest come into view once more.
