Chapter 10
After what seemed like forever, only because Dave kept teasing with slight brushes of his hands against the sides of her breasts and her thighs from the time they got off the plane to the wait in line for the rental car and the whole way to the hotel, Rae and Dave finally arrived at the hotel they were staying at. Rae walked up to the front desk and checked in, while Dave took care of getting their bags in. Rae turned around as Dave walked up behind her and handed him one the keys then they walked over to the elevators. Dave wrapped an arm around her waist pulling her close to him just as he was about to press a kiss to her neck he heard a female voice call for Rae.
"Hey girl I didn't know you were staying here." Stacy said as she walked up beside her and Dave pulling Randy along with her.
Rae turned and gave her friend a smile then looked at Randy. "How you been?"
"Recovering from our shopping spree." Stacy laughed looking from her to Dave then back. "What room are you in maybe later we can get together and for a little girl time?"
"403, but I'm not sure if I'll be able to get together later I have a lot of things I need to go over with Dave about things going on the next few weeks." I hope that was a good enough excuse and that no body sees through it
"Well I'll stop by later and see, if not that's fine I'm sure I can find something to do with Randy." Stacy replied looking at her boyfriend with a smile as he pulled her close to him.
"I'm sure you will. I'll see you later Stace." Rae said when the elevator doors opened, Stacy and Randy turned and walked toward the front doors as Rae and Dave stepped in the elevators.
"Before we go in here I want you to close your eyes." Dave instructed as he stood in front of the door to their hotel suite. Rae rolled her eyes and looked at him. "Humor me will ya, I wanted tonight to be special so I had a few things done. Now will you please close your eyes?" Rae closed her eyes after another roll, Dave smiled as he turned and opened the door, and he then turned and took her hands in his and walked in the room with her following behind him. Dave shut the door behind them and stood with his arms around her waist he leaned down next to her ear and whispered. "Open them." Slowly opening her eyes Rae was met not with the bright lights that there normally was in hotels but the soft glow of the candles that were lit and placed everywhere in the room with red rose petals scattered around them. In the middle of the room there sat a four post king sized bed with sheer drapes drawn around all the sides, on top of the bed was a silk white comforter that had rose petals scattered on it. The balcony doors had been opened showing off the hot tub that had a bottle of champagne chilling with two glasses sitting beside it and floating candles and rose petals on top of the water. "Did I do a good job?" Rae turned around in his arms and wrapped her arms around his neck pulling him in for a searing kiss. "I'll take that as a yes." Dave dropped a soft kiss on her lips and began pulling her toward the balcony.
"Dave give me one minute before we go out there." Rae stopped walking.
"Are you okay baby?" Dave asked concern showing on his face.
"I'm fine," Rae walked over to her bag. "Just give a minute and then you can do whatever you please." Rae walked into the bathroom shutting the door behind her.
Dave watched as she shut the door wondering if there was something bothering her he walked out on the balcony and opened the bottle of champagne after pouring some into the two glasses he sat it back in the silver bucket and looked out over the city watching the lights and began to think about the way his life had changed over past year and the feelings that he had for Rae, he had never in all the years that he had been with his wife done something like this for her expect for on their honeymoon. In the past three years he tried not to spend much time at home alone with his wife, every time they were alone she fought and argued over the stupidest things or all she wanted was sex, they never sat and talked about how their day or week was or even about the weather, they seldom talked about the kids if he wanted to know if something was going on with them he had to talk to them about it. Mel had defiantly changed over the past few years which is why he started to turn to Rae. Rae always listened to what he had to say, no matter what it was and she always gave him advice as to what to do when he had a problem with Mel or the girls or even with work, she understood him and what his job took from him Mel never understood that she still doesn't understand his job and why he loves it so much. 'Maybe Rae's right, maybe I should just get a divorce. Things would be much easier if I did I wouldn't have to sneak around behind Mel or anyone else to be with Rae the one that I love.' Dave paused and looked up at the dark blue sky. 'Did I just say that I love Rae? I do love her she's the one that makes me feel whole again, when I'm with her I don't have to put on a front and act like some one I'm not, I can be myself when I'm with her. Not only that but she really cares for me, she cares about what I think and do and what I'm feeling.' Dave let out a sigh as he closed his eyes and leaned down on the balcony edge. I can't see living without Rae in my life; I could live with out Mel. But if I divorce Mel what about my girls, she won't let me see them especially when she finds out about my affair with Rae she'll take everything from me. Why does this have to be so hard?'
Rae stepped out of the bathroom and looked around the room for Dave, when she spotted him on the balcony she smiled and walked across the room to the balcony doors. She stood in the doorway watching him, she knew there was something on his mind and she had a feeling she knew what it was. After a few minutes she walked up behind him and ran her hands over his back drawing him from his thoughts, Dave straightened and turned around looking down at Rae. He smiled at her when he seen that she had changed only he couldn't see what she had changed into because she wore a soft pink silk robe, one that he had bought for her.
"Everything okay?" Rae asked as she ran her hands over his chest up to his neck and wrapped her arms around. Dave nodded his head and ran his hands over her back and sides. "Then what is taking you so long to take this robe off of me then pick me up and carry me over to that bed?" Dave moved his hands in front of her and began to untie the sash on her robe; he moved the fabric open to reveal the matching nightie that he had bought for her when they were Vegas a few months back.
"I love it when you wear this." Dave kissed the side of her neck as he pushed the robe off her shoulders letting it hit the floor. He lightly ran his hands from her shoulders down her arms to her sides and around her back pulling her close against him as he pressed feather light kisses on the side of her neck up to the spot just below her ear causing a moan to escape from Rae.
Dave bent and picked her up in his arms and carried her over to the bed gently laying her in the middle of the bed he laid to the side of her wrapping his arms under her and around her waist as she pulled him to her in a passionate kiss, slightly opening her mouth when he traced her lips, allowing his access. Running his hand from her back to her side and down to her thigh just below where the silky material stopped, he loved the feel of her smooth skin beneath his touch, slowly running his hand up her thigh and under the silk material he continued moving his hand up resting it on her toned tummy, he lightly ran his fingers over her sides and tummy causing Rae to brake the kiss for laughing.
"I hate it when you do that, you know I'm ticklish." Rae laughed as she tried to pull Dave hands away from her stomach. Dave not moving his hand one inch continued to ran his fingers ever so lightly across her stomach and sides as he moved his kisses down her throat to the top of her breasts. "Dave please stop tickling me." Rae plead as she tried to roll away from him only to have him hold her in place.
"I love you laugh." Dave replied in between kisses.
"But wouldn't you rather have me moaning your name while you kiss every inch of my body?"
"That's a toss up." Dave removed his hand from her stomach and slightly sat up grabbing the nightie and in one quick motion he pulled the material up and over her head leaving her laying on the bed in just her pink satin thong. "You really like the color pink don't you?"
"Yes I do, do you have a problem with that?" Rae pulled Dave back down to her lips.
"Not at all." Dave replied breaking the kiss long enough to say those three words. He continued his kisses down the side of her neck to her shoulder then across the top of her breast and down the middle of her chest to her stomach then to the top of her panties. "However, I do have a problem with you wearing anything right now." He slowly began to remove the thin material from her body tossing them onto the floor beside the nightie. Dave moved his hands to her knees and slightly parted her legs then pressed a kiss to the inside of her right knee and began kissing up her thigh stopping just before he reached her core and repeated him moves on her left knee and thigh, with each kiss pressed he drove Rae closer to her edge Dave was the only man that could bring her close to her edge with just a few kisses and she loved that, he knew everything that she liked, he knew what she wanted, how she wanted it and when she wanted it.
"Dave please I can't take it much longer." Rae begged as her breathing picked up Dave smiled to himself as he pressed one last kiss to her thigh before running his tongue over her inner lips to part them to find her clit, working it his tongue fast and hard bringing her to the edge for the first time but most certainly not the last.
Dave climbed from the bed removing his clothes as Rae came down from her sexual high, that task became a little more difficult when she seen Dave standing beside the bed completely naked with the candle light dancing off his body making him look like he was sent down from the heavens above. Kneeling back on the bed he moved himself between her legs positioning himself right before her opening, Rae began to close her eyes in anticipation for what he was about to do.
"Open your eyes baby." Dave whispered, Rae compiled with opening her eyes and locking her gaze with his as he ever so slowly pushed his way inside her. "Leave your eyes on me baby." Rae slightly nodded as he began thrusting into her. Dave grabbed a hold of her hips and lifted her bottom from the bed causing himself to thrust further inside her making everything he did even more intense.
Dave laid beside Rae wrapped in his arms sound asleep under the silk covers after their long night of loving making. He watched as she slept, she was the most beautiful woman that he had ever laid eyes on even with her hair messed and tingled and her make-up smeared and most of it faded away. He couldn't help but fall more in love with her every time that he looked at her, there was no way that he could end this affair now. But he couldn't just leave Mel, they have been together since freshmen year of high school and they have a family together it's not like he could just rip their family apart like that the girls would be devastated if he walked out on them, so would he, his girls are his life they mean so much to him he couldn't just up and leave.
Dave lifted his head and looked at the clock on the night stand it read five thirty am, the alarm would be going off soon and he and Rae would have a busy day a head of them he had yet to fall asleep. He brushed his hand down the side of Rae's face then pressed a kiss to her lips and quietly stood from the bed.
After his shower he dressed and sat in the chair by the balcony watching as Rae slept before the alarm sounded. Rae rolled over and shut the alarm off then pulled the pillow over her head not wanting to get up, Dave chuckled she never was a morning person. He stood from his chair and walked over to the bed he grabbed a hold of the pillow and pulled it from her grasped.
"Come on you know you have to get up." Rae pulled the covers over her head trying to block out the light and his voice. "You're worse then my girls. Come on you're the one who sets the time for these photo shoots. If I have to go then you have to go." Giving up Rae pulled the covers from her head and slightly sat up.
"I really hate you some days." She mumbled as she stood from the bed and walked into the bathroom for her shower. You're really going to hate me later. Dave thought as he watched her close the door. While he was taking his shower he thought about a lot about the situation he had put himself in and his marriage and he could only come to one conclusion.
Dave and Rae had just gotten out of the photo shoot and were heading back to the hotel to grab some lunch, once inside the hotel Rae asked if he wanted to eat in the hotel restaurant or just order room service. Dave decided room service would be the best choice he could make, because of what he was about to tell Rae he really didn't want to cause a scene in such a nice restaurant he knew how Rae's temper was and she was bound to throwing something at him after his little talk with her.
Rae sat her bag down on the couch then walked over to the counter and picked up the room service menu, she could tell there was something brothering Dave, ever since this morning after they left the hotel room he had been kind of quite and at the shoot he didn't do any of his normal jokes and things to put every one at ease. The thing was she had no clue what was brothering him. He hadn't so much as kissed her cheek since she got out of the shower and that was so not Dave, every chance he got he would kiss her or whisper something that he wanted to do to her later in her ear. Rae closed the menu and looked up at Dave as he stood beside her, she could tell in the look that he was giving her that he wanted to talk and she had a feeling that she wasn't going to like what he was about to say.
"Rae can we talk for a minute?" He started out. Rae nodded her head and turned her body to him as she leaned her elbow on the counter, just in case she needed support. "You know that my feelings for you run deep, so deep in fact that I would have to say that I love you with every breath that is in me right now." Nope she was definitely not going to like this talk, she nodded her head slightly he reached out and took her hands in his. "And as much I do love you I love my girls that much more and the thought of what I'm doing to my family is going to kill them. You were right I'm tearing my family apart every time I make love to you. But I'm not only tearing my family apart I'm tearing you apart as well, because you know that I'm not going to leave my family." Dave paused he could see the hurt look cover her eyes. "I'm sorry Rae but I can't hurt you or my family any more, I have to end this between us right here right now. I never wanted any one to get hurt out of this whole thing but no matter what choice I make I'm going to hurt some one." She fought hard to keep the tears from falling. "I know you, you're a strong woman, one of the strongest women that I know and I know that you'll bounce back from this, you'll move on and find someone else. That thought kills me inside, I don't want to see you with any one else but I can't keep hurting you. If I leave Mel she'll take the girls and I'll only see them maybe two days a week and I can't live like that." Dave ran a hand over the side of her face.
"It's okay Dave I know how much you're girls mean to you." Rae took a step back from him trying to keep her composure.
"Rae I want you to still work for me, you're the only one that can put up with me and my schedule. Besides how am I suppose to keep my eye on you if you quit." Dave pulled her in for a hug. "My feelings for you will never change I will always love you."
"You better order something to eat; we only have two hours before we have to be at the arena for the taping." Rae pulled away from his hug; she turned and walked over to the couch picking up her bag she began to walk toward the door. "I'm going to eat in the lobby meet me down there by one thirty okay." With that she stepped into the hallway and closed the door behind her. Keeping her head up and her tears pushed back she walked to the elevators and began descending to the lobby.
