Before the Sun Sets
CHAPTER 44 ~ Happy New Year
I DO NOT OWN THE VAMPIRE DIARIES
"Any plans for tomorrow night?" Cordelia and Maddie looked at their mother before looking at each other. Yes, they both thought.
It was Cordelia who answered first, "Yeah, going to a party."
"Me to," Maddie responded. A party that involve Elijah and myself, hopefully watching the ball drop naked.
"I'll take it neither one of you is going to be home." They both shook their heads. "Me either. I don't want to leave Lucy all by herself though."
"I'll take care of it," Cordelia responded.
Janette looked at her surprised, "You will?"
She rolled her eyes, "Well she is my dog."
"I'm glad you haven't forgotten that fact," Maddie commented.
"Shut up Maddie. I'll either stop by later or I'll just bring her with me. I should be home in the morning though."
"Please do not get wasted."
"I'm not!" Cordelia's eyes went wide when she said that. "Why is it that you never tell Maddie how much alcohol she should be drinking?"
"Your sister doesn't drink every other day. And when she does occasionally have a drink, she isn't wasted." Maddie put her head down to hide her smirk. There were a few times she had been wasted. And then she would wake up to huge hangovers. "At least not all the time. I remember the day after Cordelia's birthday you were done for it."
Cordelia commented, "Glad I'm not the only one who remembered that."
"Whatever Cord," Maddie said. She stabbed her string beans before taking a bite. When she finished chewing she swallowed before asking her mom, "What are you and dad doing tomorrow night?"
"Some of my co-workers are having a celebration. So we're going to go."
"And you won't be home?"
"Well they are throwing a party in a hotel outside of town. We decided to just get a room for the night."
"Fancy."
Cordelia noted, "I'm shocked dad isn't working."
"Since he worked Christmas he was able to get New Year's off."
"He should start using his time more. He never takes off from work. Practically lives at the hospital."
Janette nodded in agreement, "Don't remind me." A moment of silence was passed before she asked, "Have either of you heard how Tyler is doing?"
Maddie and Cordelia both shook their heads. It hadn't taken long for the town to find out about Mrs. Lockwood. Cordelia, had known before them of course, but it was still crazy to believe.
"No," Maddie answered.
"Poor boy. His father and now his mother." No one said anything else after that. All of them were just left to their own thoughts.
"Which one should I wear?" Cordelia held up two dresses. One was pink, with a black stripe going across the middle and sides. The straps were wired in three on each side. It looked nice. the other one was a blue laced off shoulder romper. That one was nice to.
"I like the pink."
Cordelia looked over them both, "Me too."
"Where did you get them from?"
"Charlotte Russe."
"Nice."
"Right. I think I'll do black heels for the pink. Unless I go with nude. But since it already has black in the dress that might be better."
"What time are you leaving?"
Cordelia frowned, unsure. "I don't know. Lindsey's party is officially starting at like 11, but some of us are going to be there around eight thirty. And then I'll probably leave by ten, or something close to that."
"You aren't staying the whole time?"
She shook her head, "No."
"So where are you going?" A hint of a smile came across her face. She tried to hide it but Maddie had already caught it. "Are you going to see a certain hybrid?"
"Yes, I am."
"You know you never told me how Christmas went with him."
"It went. I was in and then I was out."
"That's all?"
"That's all."
Maddie crossed her arms, "I'm not buying it."
"Well nothing happened," Cordelia said. Her tone screamed irritation.
"Not even a kiss?"
"Cheek doesn't count. What about you? How was your time with Elijah?"
Maddie's face lit up, "It was amazing."
"Of course it was."
"And I hope we have another amazing night tonight."
"Oh yeah?"
She nodded excitedly, "I found out he has a hot tub."
"He does?"
Maddie nodded her head, excited. "Yeah. I happened to go into his backyard and saw it. He also has this fire pit sort of thing."
"So he has a nice backyard?"
"Pretty much."
"And you're going to be using this hot tub tonight?"
"Hopefully. Whether isn't bad. And I think it would be nice. There are supposed to be some fireworks tonight, so I was thinking maybe he and I could watch them from outside in the hot tub. Or we could watch the ball drop on TV inside and then go into the hot tub."
"Point being, you want to go in the hot tub."
"Yes!" She couldn't wait to go in. When she had seen it she told Elijah she wanted to go in. He told her that they could. "I have to bring a bathing suit."
"Do a two piece one. Show off that bod."
"Between us I think he likes my belly button piercing."
Cordelia raised an eyebrow, "Really?"
She nodded her head, "Yeah. Sometimes he'll play with it." She caught the look that came over her sister's face, "With his hands! He'll like twist it or just touch it."
"I didn't say anything!" Cordelia said with her hands up.
"Your face says it all."
Maddie was finishing packing up for tonight. Her mom had already left. She was going to get Christian from the hospital and then the two of them would be gone until later. Cordelia had just gotten out of the shower. She had taken hers beforehand. They were going to be leaving at the same time.
Looking through her bag she double checked everything. She had pajamas, a change of clothes for tomorrow, she had her charger and wallet. She wasn't sure what else she would need. She thought about it, feeling like she was forgetting something. Looking over her dresser draws she thought hard. Bikini! The moment she remembered she went to her drawer where they were stashed and looked at different ones. The top was white and tied around her neck. The bottoms a floral print design on them. She quickly put it inside before zipping up her bag.
Getting to her feet she grabbed her phone off of her bed. She had a text message from Matt.
Matt – Going to party tonight?
She had forgotten all about that party.
Maddie – No, I don't think so! If you go have a good time! And be safe!
Matt – Of course!
The day after Christmas, he sent her a text thanking her for everything. She found out later he had even Facebook messaged her mom and sister, thanking them as well. She was glad that they could make his holiday a little bit cheerful. He deserved to be happy.
"How does this look?"
Maddie turned her head towards the door. Her sister was dressed in the pink dress with black heels. Her hair was straight and she had her makeup done.
"Slay!"
"That's what I like to hear."
"You wearing a dress to Elijah's?"
Maddie shook her head no. She had thought about it, but soon decided against it. "No. I think Elijah and I are just going to have a nice quiet romantic night."
"You're starting to talk like him." Cordelia noted. She didn't say it as a bad thing though. Even if she had Maddie wasn't sure she'd care.
"Good." She joked.
"Right. I'm heading out in a little bit."
She nodded, "I'm almost done packing. So ready when you are."
"Right. I have to do my overnight bag."
"And what's the plan with Lucy?"
"I'm going to go to the party, then come here to let her out and make sure she has food, and then I'm going to Klaus' house."
"Sounds good to me."
Maddie's nose was immediately filled with the greatest smell. Her mouth began to water, "What are you making?"
Elijah, who had her hand and was leading her into his kitchen responded, "Dinner."
She tried to keep the frown off of her face, "You know one day you are going to have to let me make dinner for you."
He tossed her a smile. She took it as a secret smile that he would continue making her dinner, until she surprised him with her cooking one day. "You always say that. And I always remind you that you made me an excellent Thanksgiving dinner."
"And I want to make you some more excellent dinners." She told him honestly. She would have never thought that Elijah enjoyed cooking as much as he did. Especially since part of his appetite had to do with blood. "At least let me help."
"I've got it." He told her.
"At least let me make dessert."
Elijah leaned against the counter. She found that to be incredibly sexy. She licked her lips. His eyes shot there before he looked back at her face. "You don't have to worry about that."
She walked over closer to him. Placing herself directly in front of him, "Please. You have to let me do something."
He wrapped his arms around her, kissing her forehead, "You're my guest."
"And you take such great care of me. But I feel so useless."
"You're many things Maddison. Useless definitely isn't one of them."
A smirk came over her face. He had that look in his eyes. That look of hunger. He definitely wanted her. She wanted him to though. There was no doubt about that.
"Glad you feel that way." Leaning up on her tippy toes, she kissed him. It was their first kiss of the day. Elijah wrapped an arm around her, pulling her closer. Leaning up some more she wrapped her arms around his neck, at the same time, flicking her tongue against his bottom lip. He opened up for her. Allowing their tongues to mesh together. Within seconds, he had her in his arms, her feet wrapped around his waist as he held onto her. The only sound that could be heard in the kitchen was the sound of their kiss, which was growing more passionate by the second.
She felt something hard under her butt. Opening her eyes, she could see that he had moved so that she was sitting on her counter. She kept her legs locked around him. Needing air, she moved her face momentarily. He took that as a cue to devour her neck. She let her head fall back, loving every second of it. Of course, it was over way to soon.
He broke away from her, "We'll resume this later."
Out of breath, she asked, "Why, don't want to fuck me on your kitchen counter?" She wasn't sure where the sudden courage come from for her to actually ask. But once it was out of her mouth she couldn't take it back.
Elijah cupped her face, "Because I'm going to feed my beautiful girl and have a great night with her." Her features softened into a smile. He moved his lips to his ear, "But, if you want to as you put, fuck you on my kitchen counter, that can be arranged."
"Where are you going?" Arianna asked Cordelia. A frown on her face as she saw her friend getting ready to leave.
Cordelia was in the process of saying goodbye to all of her friends. She was ready to go and spend some time with Klaus. He had already sent her a text earlier to make sure that she was still coming. But before she went there she had to go check on Lucy.
"I have some errands to run. But before then I have to check on Lucy."
"Lucy?"
"My dog."
A look of realization came over her face, "Oh right. The one that's always on your Snapchat. She is so cute."
"Come by and see her one day." She and Arianna hadn't spent enough one on one time together. In high school they were really closed. She was glad they still hung out when they were home but it would be nice to get closer. That was one of the bitter, sweet things about her going to Stanford. You made new friends but at the same time you missed the memories that you made with your old ones.
"Definitely!" Arianna said, taking a sip of the beer she had in her hand. "I'll see you later, have fun!"
Cordelia gave her one last hug. She wanted to get out of here. Not only was she anxious to see Klaus, but she also didn't really want to have to explain where she was going. She kept evading the question when people would ask her. Hurrying, she did one last final goodbye and then left the house. Getting into her car and heading home.
"You know," Maddie said, holding her fork near her mouth, "in another life time I'm sure you were a chef." She bit into her chicken. Loving the way that it tasted, especially with whatever sauce Elijah had put together. When she finished chewing she noted, "And a great one at that. You probably have your very own five star restaurant with people trying to get it, but it's so popular that you need a six month advance reservation.s"
Elijah smiled across from her. She watched as he filled up his glass with wine. "I'll take that as a compliment."
"This so good," she noted before taking another bite. Elijah had made a baked chicken and topped it off with some kind of sauce. It was delicious. And the green beans he paired with it was good to.
"Don't rush. There's plenty."
"I'm pretty sure I'll be having a midnight snack." She looked up and caught his eye. With a smile she said, "And not just with regular food, if you know what I mean." She wiggled her eyebrows.
Elijah shook his head. He couldn't hold his smile though. She never failed at making him smile. One of the many things he loved about her. Love. He planned on telling her tonight exactly how he felt about her. He considered it on Christmas but held back. However, after their time together, nothing was holding him back anymore.
"What do you think about my sister dating your brother?"
Her question caught him off guard. "Are they together?"
She shrugged, "I don't know. They're in that weird stage."
He raised an eyebrow, "Weird stage?"
"You know, where you are kind of testing the waters. They're where we were at one point."
"Please remind me of when we were in that stage."
She didn't miss the amusement that was all over his face. "Well we were kind of in the weird stage during my sister's birthday party."
"Ah yes, when you drunk dialed me?"
"I wish you would forget about that." He shook his head. He would never forget that. "But we weren't officially dating then. Just hanging out, and some occasional kisses." She tried to keep the blush off of her face, "Then you had to go and ignore me because Klaus sent me flowers."
"I remember."
"But then we got it right and got together." She told him, "For the most part."
"We've had some quarrels along the way." He was right. They had. "But we've overcome them."
"Yes, we have." She took a sip of her water. He had offered her wine but she declined. Although, she did plan on having some later. "But seriously, what do you think about them together?"
"If she's happy I don't see the problem."
"Do you think he'll be faithful to her?" That was one of her biggest worries. It was no secret that Klaus had a thing for Caroline. At least he used to. Considering Caroline continued to play him she wasn't sure if he had gotten over her or not.
Elijah thought about it, "Yes, I do."
"Really?" He nodded. That made her feel better. After all, he knew Klaus way better than she did. "Alright, I'm done talking about them now. We can focus on us for the rest of the night."
"Perfect." The way he looked at her made her want to just melt. She knew for sure that they were definitely going to have a great night.
She wiped her hands along the bottom of her dress. She was suddenly unsure of herself, which was kind of ridiculous.
For starters, Cordelia wasn't sure if she should just knock, or let herself in. She had just come in last time. What the hell, she thought to herself opening the door. She tried to make as little noise as possible when she closed it. She soon came to the conclusion that didn't matter. He would hear regardless. Immediately upon her entrance, the smell of food hit her nose. She followed the smell to the kitchen. She stopped short in the doorway. This kitchen was beautiful. And huge. From the granite countertops, to the huge fridge, the over and even the lights that were hanging from the ceiling. She would love to cook in it on day.
"Tell me," her head snapped straight. Her gaze was now off of the ceiling lights and she was looking towards Klaus, "should I be jealous?"
"Of?"
"The way you're staring at my ceiling."
"Just admiring your lights."
"Should I be jealous?"
"Maybe. They're really nice lights."
He smirked at her, "Glad you could make it love."
"I am to."
Her heart skipped a small beat as he walked closer. Now that she had time to analyze him she raised an eyebrow, "What's with the tux?" She accepted the glass he of champagne he handed to her. "Not that I don't like it."
"Well it seemed fitting. If you were going to be all dressed up I should be as well."
She smirked, "And what if I planned to get out of this dress?" Now it was his turn to raise an eyebrow. She rolled her eyes, "Not like that. But maybe I had a change of clothes in my car because I didn't want to wear this dress."
"Do you have a change of clothes?"
No point in lying. "I do."
"Good." Was his only comment. He extended his arm to her, "Shall we?"
She put down her phone and wallet on the counter. Taking his arm. Her champagne was still grasped in her other hand. She made sure to look around as he walked her out of his kitchen and into his dining room.
"Your kitchen is perfect," she commented. "I would love to cook in it."
"If that's what you want."
"You'd let me?"
"I don't see why not."
Once they were at a dining table he stopped, pulling out her chair for her. "Thank you," she said as she sat. As he walked over to sit across from her she looked around. He definitely scored a perfect 10 when it came to the romantic aspect. While the room was kind of dark, the candles made it perfect. Especially the two that he had on the table. Looking down a smile came to her face. She looked up at him, "You made me dinner."
"I did."
"I never took you for the cooking kind of guy."
He leaned in slightly, intriguing her, "Don't tell anyone but contrary to your beliefs I love to cook."
"Right. I'll have to remember that when I'm trying to find something to blackmail you with."
"That might not turn out so great for you love."
She smiled, "You threatening me?"
He smiled back, "Do you want me to?"
"I don't know. If you did I might like it."
He shook his head, "You are one interesting young woman, do you know that Ms. Bennett?"
"So my mom tells me."
"And how are your parents?"
She frowned, "You really want to know?"
"I asked didn't I."
Smart ass, she thought to herself. "They're fine. They went away to some party. Should be back sometime tomorrow."
"Well I promise to have you home before they get there."
"I appreciate that. But, I never said I was staying here tonight."
"You will."
"You sound confident."
"Let's just say I've been around for a while. I know what a woman likes."
"And what do you think I like?"
"I know you'll love my food." She looked down at her plate. It definitely looked good. "Now take a bite. Don't want it to get cold."
Jokingly she responded, "So demanding."
"You have no idea."
She stopped before her fork could touch her lips. Her eyes shot up, meeting his stare. She felt her insides getting all mushy. Trying to keep her emotions at bay she took a bite of the food. He made her a pasta dish. She wasn't sure what kind of dish it was but it was delicious. From the spices, to the spinach and tomatoes he added to the sauce. So good.
"You like?"
She kept her face neutral, "It's alright."
"Liar."
She didn't respond, only dug in to her plate. She tried not to devour it to quickly but it was so good. She took spontaneous sips of wine to slow down her eating process. As she neared finished she asked him, "Why did you do this?"
"This me making up Christmas to you."
"You really don't have to make up anything to me. After all, what are friends for."
"Is that what we are, friends?"
"Is that what you want to be?" Her hear was hammering. She tried to relax. She knew he could hear it, which only made her heart pump harder, faster.
Instead of responding her he just put down the pasta he had drained. She backed up slightly as he stalked towards her. "I want to be whatever you want me to be."
"And what if I wanted you to just be my friend?"
"Then I'm your friend."
She took a short pause before asking her next question. "And if I wanted you to be more?"
"Then we will be more."
Picking up her champagne class she drank some, "Good to know."
"Well that was amazing."
After finishing up their dinner Maddie and Elijah resumed in their seats just talking. It felt like hours as they talked about anything and everything. A little while ago they finally retired to the couch. She was currently snuggling into his arm. Her head resting in the crook of his neck. He had an arm wrapped around her. As she snuggled into him she thought about the amazing meal that he had just fed her. Even though she had already told him how good it was she continued to praise his cooking skills.
Kissing her forehead, he said, "Glad you liked it."
She looked up, catching his eye. "I loved it." Leaning up she kissed him. His warm, soft lips meshing against hers. She pulled away, "Thank you."
"Any time."
A moment of silence passed and she was laughing. She could feel Elijah gazing at her. "You know," she said, "you never did let me make you dessert."
A humorous look came over his face, "If that's what you really want you can."
She turned. Looking at him, she moved her position from snuggling to straddling. Her legs went to either side of his waist. Her hands went to his face. "I do actually want something."
"You do?"
She didn't miss the shock tone of his voice, "Yes."
"Alright, what is it you want?"
"Just like that?" She knew she shouldn't have been shocked, but she was. Just a little. All she had to do was ask and he would give her.
"Just like that."
"Well, you have a really nice hot tub outside."
"I do."
"And I was thinking that we could use it tonight."
Elijah studied her face. While he did that she looked over his. His expression was hard to read. Unmoving. "That's it?"
She nodded, "Well, yeah."
"Okay."
She repeated his words, "Okay."
"Okay," he said again.
"That was easy."
"It's not a hard request."
She chuckled, "I guess you're right." She turned her head. Her phone was sitting on his in table. Leaning over she looked at the time. It was already past ten. She wasn't sure if they were going to watch the ball drop together or what. Even if they didn't she wouldn't care, as long as she got her New Year's kiss from him. "Can we go in now?" She was excited. Besides the fact that she knew he would love her outfit, she hadn't been in a hot tub in the longest time. It would be nice to feel the water against her body. That along with Elijah's hands. And hopefully other parts of him.
Elijah nodded, "I'll go get it ready." With that he pecked her lips quickly.
"Okay," she began to get up off of him. "I'll go and get myself ready while you're doing that."
Before she could really go far, he grabbed her hand. "You planned this?"
She smirked, "Maybe."
"And might I ask what you'll be wearing?"
"Clothes."
Elijah stood to his full height. She felt a chill come over her as she looked up at him. He is so sexy, she thought to herself, and thankfully he is mine. "You know Maddison, some would refer to you as a smart ass."
"I'm pretty sure you like my ass."
To confirm what she said, he let his hand move to cup her right butt cheek. He gave it a gentle squeeze before running his hand over it. Even though she had on pants it still felt good. He leaned down, brushing his lips over her ear, "I do." His hand came down on her ass cheek, leaving a smacking sound in its wake. "Go get ready."
She pulled out of his grasp, "I promise you'll like it."
She didn't wait around to hear his response or see his face. Instead she went up to his room where he had discarded the bag that she brought. Getting to her knees she took out everything she needed, before going into the bathroom to change, which didn't take her long.
Once she was ready, she looked down at her body. She was definitely grateful for doing winter track. It had kept her in good shape. Her bikini top made her boobs stand out. It was probably a size to small but it wasn't tight and she looked good so she didn't care. Her bottoms made her legs and her ass look nice. She turned her head slightly, looking at her butt. It was kind of big. Not that that was a bad thing. Looking back straight, she looked down at her belly button piercing. The stud had a pearl design. She made sure to put on her necklace to. She had her hair in a ponytail but she was pretty sure it would be coming down. Elijah loved running his hands through her hair. Not as much as he liked to grope and slap her ass though.
Grabbing a towel, she left his bedroom and was ready to head downstairs when she heard the hushed tone of his voice. Following it she entered a room that she hadn't been in before. It was office. She could tell by his desk and chair. And some of the shelves. She only popped her head in.
"I'll be downstairs." He nodded to her and she smiled before walking away. Her body had been hidden by the door that was half cracked. So, he would be in for a rude awakening when he saw her later.
As she made her way downstairs she stopped by the kitchen. Looking around she grabbed two wine glasses and a bottle. They would definitely be toasting to something and she thought it would up the romantic level. In the back of her head she debated whether or not she was going to confess her love for her. She had been so close on Christmas and she had been close some other times but she held back. Part of her was worried it might have been to soon, but they had officially known each other since March. And they had been together majority of the time they knew each other, even if they hadn't put a label to their relationship right away.
Heading out of the back door, she made sure to keep a tight grip on the wine and glasses. She didn't want it falling and then she would have to clean it up. She considered going back inside and seeing if he had any chocolate and strawberries so she could whip up a quick dessert but she decided against it. She would save those plans for another time. Maybe valentine's day. Or his birthday. Shit, she thought to herself. She had no idea when his birthday was. She would most definitely be asking him. Embarrassment came over her. What kind of girlfriend was she to not know his birthday.
Looking at the hot tub her excited feeling returned. Bubbles had started to form. And it almost looked steamy in a sexy sort of sense. She put down the towel on one of the outside chairs he had. She set down the wine and glasses on top before moving to get into the hot tub.
The water felt so good against her body. When she got in she got some goosebumps from the feeling, but it was still relaxing for her. She walked straight ahead before turning around and slightly squatting. Leaning her head back, she closed her eyes, just enjoying the feeling. She had majority of her body under the moving water. Her neck was slightly wet.
"Looks like you're enjoying yourself."
Her eyes snapped open. Elijah was walking towards her. Rising to her full height she walked closer to the edge. He was still taller than her. "What took you so long?"
"Just had to make a phone call."
She nodded. Not really caring. He was here now. Grasping her hands against the edge of the hot tub, she lifted herself slightly. He leaned his head down at the same time, letting his lips touch hers. At first their kiss started off slow. Their lips gliding against one another. But then, once his tongue entered her mouth it picked up. She let his tongue claim hers before she thrusted hers against his. Moving her hands, she moved them to the front of his pants, messing with his belt. Elijah noticed but didn't pull away from their kiss. When she got the belt done she opened up his zipper. Moving her hands, she found his cock and pulled it out. Elijah pulled away from her as she took it in her hand.
She kept eye contact as she stroked it in her hand. "Take off your shirt." He did as she asked, still holding her gaze. As he opened his shirt, button by button, she sucked in her bottom lip. He was so muscular. She could just stare at his body for hours and never get bored. Once his shirt was off she said, "Now drop the pants." Those went to although he kept his boxers on with his penis poking out. She chuckled but didn't say anything.
She moved her hand, raising to her full height again. She planted a kiss along his neck before she descended down. She made sure she kept her kisses going down straight. When she got to the line of his boxers she lowered herself to her knees. Water splashed over the edge a little. She noticed his eyes were drawn to her breasts. She didn't make a note of it though, at least not yet. She kissed the line of his briefs before lowering them.
"You've been so good to me," she said, lowering her voice an octave. She hoped he found it sexy. "Cooking me dinner, taking care of me, getting me lavish gifts." She kissed the head of his cock, "I want you to know how thankful I am to have you in my life." Before he could say anything, she took the head inside of her mouth.
Elijah watched as she sucked his cock. A part of him wondered what happened to his sweet little Maddison. Since the first time they had made love she had become a vixen. Not that he was complaining. He loved her new-found confidence. Especially when it came down to their sexual activities.
Maddie continued to suck the head of his cock before she let it go with a pop. "You like that?"
He semi glared at her, "You know I do."
She smiled, teasing him, "Just checking." She quickly took his cock back in her mouth, taking in more of him. She began to suck on him faster. Her head bobbing in a steady rhythm. He moved his hand into her hair, keeping her there. He didn't want to fuck her mouth. He didn't think she was ready for that yet. But her ministrations were doing things to him. He knew it was only a matter of time before he came down her throat.
"I'm going to come in your mouth," he told him.
She went faster. He knew that was his okay to do so. As he came in spurts she left her mouth there. Taking everything that he gave her. She knew he was done when she felt him soften. She released it. Giving it one last lick and the head one last kiss before she rose to her feet again and backed away slightly.
"You getting in or what?"
Elijah got in. She noticed he had pulled back up his briefs. Not that she cared. She would be getting them off of him one way or another.
"Since we made love," he said walking closer to her, "you have become such a tease."
"And that's a problem because …" her voice trailed off. She stopped backing up when she hit the back of the tub.
"That is no problem," he spoke standing in front of her. "In fact, I've grown fond of you new found confidence when it comes to our sexual activities."
"Oh yeah?" He nodded. "Good. Because I have plenty in store for us. Especially in the future."
"I can't wait."
She checked him out, before she slightly leaned against the tub. She tried not to obviously thrust her breasts out as he did so. "Like my outfit."
He looked over her. "Turn around." She did as she asked, raising herself to her tippy toes. Her ass lifted slightly out of the water. She let out a moan as a hand came down on her butt. She would never get tired of that.
"This bathing suite is showing off all your assets."
She turned her head, looking at him over her shoulder, "So?"
"I hope you don't plan on wearing this around anyone but me."
"You going to spank me if I do?" She wondered with a raised eyebrow.
He didn't answer her at first. Although his hand landed on her spine and went up into her hair. He took out her hair tie letting her locks fall over her shoulders. "Is that what you want?"
"Maybe." Her head was screaming yes.
"As I said before if you want something all you have to do is ask."
She turned back around, now face to face with him, "I'll keep that in mind."
Elijah pulled her to him. She smiled against his chest as his hands roamed over her body. It felt good. Especially with the water. As his hands continued to roam her body, his lips went to her forehead, kissing the crown of her head. His lips moved from her forehead to her cheek, to the shell of her ear, "I just want to rip this off of you."
Her smile only got wider, "So why don't you?"
"Maybe later. For now, I like looking at you with this on."
She joked, "You like my curves huh."
"You have no idea." His hand on her ass continued to rub before he grabbed a bit. She moved her head to look up at him. Her mouth open from laughing.
"My ass must be your favorite part of my body."
"How can you tell?"
She chuckled. Moving them, Elijah sat down in the tub. She stood in between his legs. Taking her hands in his he moved her. Within seconds she was sitting in his lap. Her back against his chest. A smile came to her face as she stared in front of her. The back of his house was just as beautiful as the front. Looking around she saw a huge amount of yard space. If he wanted to, which she doubted he would, he could throw huge parties. Not to forget the pool that he had off to the side.
It was quiet. Besides the sounds of the water moving along their body, nothing could be heard. Occasionally Elijah would pepper kisses along her neck, but for the most part, he just caressed her gently. His face did stay planted in her neck though. Like now as he caressed her thighs he was breathing in her scent.
"We definitely have to do this more often," she murmured, leaning into his some more.
"Indeed."
"I just want to stay in this moment with you forever. Our own little bubble."
"If things worked out like that it would be great, wouldn't it?"
She nodded, "It would. Of course, we live in Mystic Falls, where you never know what's going to happen."
"Well I know one thing." As he said this he moved his head from her neck. She moved slightly out of his embrace, turning around to face him. Not wanting to be completely out of his embrace she straddled him, her legs on either side of him and he arms hooking together behind his neck.
"And what's that."
"No matter what happens, my love for you will never change."
Love. There was that word. She stared at him. Her face softening. She was going to take that as his way of saying he loved her. "When you took me home after Rose and Trevor kidnapped me, I never thought I would care about you. I thought you were just going to be a vampire that did me a favor and that was it." She made sure she held his gaze. "But you came into my life. And you made me fall for you. And then as time passed you made me fall in love with you. And I couldn't be more grateful."
Elijah smiled at her. A real genuine smile, which caused her to smile back. They were in love with each other. And in the end that was all that mattered.
If there was anything Cordelia was positive about, it was Klaus' cooking abilities. She had loved the meal he made for her. As a bonus he made her dessert. And he had a great taste when it came down to picking out champagne. His whole alcohol collection was impressive.
"I don't think you should have showed me your wine cellar," she commented as they watched the fireworks outside.
"If something goes missing I'll know who to blame."
"You certainly will," she didn't try to hide it. Although she was pretty sure if she ever wanted to dip into his collection she wouldn't have to take it from him. She had a feeling he would give her whatever she wanted. As a collection of firework went off a smile came over her face. She loved watching fireworks. One of the main reasons the 4th of July was her favorite holiday.
When they finished going off she looked to Klaus, "Is that it?"
"I think so love."
Her face scrunched up in a frown, "Is it New Year's then?"
"I don't have a watch on me."
"You, the hybrid, don't know something?" She raised her eyebrow, fainting shock. "Oh my god."
He smirked at her, taking her hand and guiding her back inside of his house. When they got to the living room where his huge flat screen was, the TV read 11:59. On the screen they were counting down. It was on thirty seconds.
"Eighteen seconds left," she noted.
Klaus faced her, "Seventeen."
"Are we going to count down until midnight?"
"If we were you ruined it."
"I guess I did."
There was a gap between them, not to big, but not small either. She was nervous. If she were with her friends she would be drunk right now, and they would be screaming the countdown at the top of their lungs. But now she was with Klaus. The guy that had been flirting with her and captivated her attention. The guy who she thought might kiss her at midnight.
She glanced at the screen, "It's down to ten."
"It is."
"Nine." She bit her bottom lip.
He stepped closer to her. "Eight." She couldn't even speak for seven, her bottom lip was still between her teeth. He took another step, "You missed a number." She continued to stare at his face, not speaking. Cupping her face in his hands, his thumb stroked over her cheek, while his other hand gently swiped over her bottom lip.
She turned her head to the TV, although she could perfectly well hear it, "Three."
"Two."
"One." Noise rang out from the TV. "Happy New Year Klaus."
"Happy New Year Cordelia."
She wasn't sure if she kissed him first, or if he kissed her. All she knew was that their lips connected in a sweet kiss. She let her hands wrap around his neck as his lips stayed on top of hers. Together the two kissed in harmony, figuring one another out. She let out a low moan as she felt his hand travel down her back, stopping when it landed on her round ass. Her moan was his in to add his tongue to the mix. She stepped closer to him when he did, loving the feeling of him kissing her like that while his hand rested on her ass.
Needing a breath, she pulled away, "That was nice."
"Yes, it was." He didn't move from his position. She was still pressed against him and his hand was still on her butt. He wasn't squeezing but his grip was firm.
Silence followed. She wasn't sure what to do or say next. She didn't really have any expectations. He had more than enough made up for their Christmas encounter. Although he never really had to make it up to her at all since she did come to his house uninvited. He cooked her dinner and dessert, showed her around his house and took her into his cellar, showing her his very impressive, and expensive, drinking collection. He watched fireworks with her and kissed her when the clock striked twelve. Now there was nothing else he could do. Well, he could ask her to stay but she wasn't going to bring it up. She didn't want to seem desperate and she had poked around at the idea before.
"I guess I'll see you later." She stepped out of his warm embrace. He said nothing. Only continued to stare at her with a look of disinterest stretched along his face. That hurt. Now she just wanted to practically run out of there. "Bye," she murmured. Irritation coursed through her. She would have thought that he'd have asked her to stay, but he didn't. She quickly gave him one last look, to which he just stared at her before she made her way towards the door. As her finger got around the knob, she went to open it.
Just as quickly as it was opened, it was shut.
She looked up. A white hand on the door. She could feel his body pressing against her back. Hands went to her hair, moving it to the side before a kiss was planted on her neck. She sucked in a breath.
"You don't really want to go love."
No, I don't. Keeping a game face on she turned around, facing him. His hands went to either side of her head, locking her in. "What makes you say that?"
"For starters," he stepped closer to her, their bodies touching, "you don't kiss someone like that if you want to leave them. And," he moved his face close to hers, their noses touching, "I can smell how much you want to stay."
"What if your senses are deceiving you."
A sinister smile came to his face. Paying her no attention, he brushed his lips over hers. She moved her face, wanting more but he pulled away before she could. His lips going to her throat. She could feel him smiling against her skin. She was losing whatever game she was trying to play with him. He knew it and so did she.
"I doubt my senses are playing tricks on me love. Your face is telling me everything that I need to know."
"Which is?" She felt like shutting her eyes.
A kiss was placed on her throat, "You want me." She opened them, watching him as he took in her body. "Just as much as I want you." His fingers ran along her arms, messing with the straps on her dress. Without him saying anything she lifted her arms up. He took that as the initiative and took it off of her. It dawned on her that the dress had a zipper in the back but those thoughts went away as quick as they had come. Once he had it off of her, he dropped it to the floor, eyes reveling over her body. "And if you didn't come here wanting me, you wouldn't be in this lovely little bra and panty set, would you?"
She sighed against the door, "I guess not."
His eyes stayed on her body, "You have an incredible body. And I must say I'm interested in these tattoos you have." His eyes were on her ribs. Looking at the ink that was there.
"I have a few," she admitted. "But if you want to see them all you have to find them."
"Challenge accepted."
She wanted him to stop talking and kiss her again. If he wasn't going to kiss her mouth he could at least kiss other parts of her that were needy for him. She wasn't a virgin, not that it mattered, and she was ready for him.
"Kiss me."
"Where?"
"Anywhere."
He moved his face down, kissing the swell of her breasts, "Here?" His head came up, looking her in the eyes he wandered, "or lower." One of his hands moved down her stomach to her panties, gliding over her covered territory.
"Anywhere."
Moving his face from her breasts he kissed her again. This time he let his tongue immediately start in on hers. She longed to feel his body pressed against hers again. Wasting no time, he picked her up, slightly pulling his mouth away from hers, "I think we should take this upstairs."
"I think so to."
It wasn't long before they were in his bedroom. Moments later moans could be heard throughout the entire house.
"Look at that one!" After confessing their love for one another, Elijah and Maddie went back to their regular position. He was sitting against the tub with her back to him. His arms circled around her waist, his head resting on top of hers as they watched the fireworks. "I love fireworks," she confessed.
"I can tell." He noted how she always commented what she thought of each one.
As the finale went on, a permanent smile stayed on her face. After a minute passed she commented, "That was amazing."
"Yes, it was," Elijah said back. He hadn't taken off his watch since it was water proof. Looking at the time it was a minute after midnight.
"Happy new year my love," he said kissing her neck.
She turned her head slightly, "It's after midnight?"
"Yes."
She kissed his lips softly, "Happy new year."
