Chapter Fifteen

Walking Through a Reverie

Jasper's POV

Several hours later...

"Spasiba," I thanked the cheery, rotund man at the service counter, as he handed me the key to my and Edward's hotel room for the next couple of days.

We had driven straight to Saint Petersburg from the airport, the pair of us never seeming to stop, never tiring completely before we reached a place where we could be alone together.

My sleep-deprived eyes had been glued to the snow-dusted streets and buildings of the towns we had sped passed, my soul clenching and fluttering within me as I had stared emotionally at the scenery that made up a large part of the person I was inside.

Edward had been right; somehow he had just known.

I had needed this place.

I had needed it like an artist needed a canvas...as if Russia was an extension of myself.

And now that he and I were on frosted Russian soil once more, I felt whole – totally, unequivocally whole as a human being, like I finally had everything I could ever want and more with Edward by my side here.

It was perfect; everything felt perfect.

My bronze-haired lover and I trudged our bodies sluggishly to our hotel room, barely noticing the navy-blue walls patterned with bright white doors until we finally reached our own.

I jammed the key in the lock, releasing the mechanism, and pulled open the door to our room, neither Edward or me speaking a word in light of our jet-lagged, overworked exhaustion, as we made our way inside the suite.

The adequately-sized rooms were sage in color, trimmed in white and accented with tasteful wooden furniture, offering a peaceful atmosphere within the suite, for which I was immensely grateful, as Edward and I dropped our luggage along the floor.

Nothing needed to be said between my American boyfriend and I, the two of us already knowing the first thing that needed to transpire right now, as Edward first took off my coat from my shoulders before slipping off his own.

I sat down on the bed and kicked off my shoes, my near-blurring eyes somewhat watching as Edward hung up our coats on a nearby rack, before he padded back towards me.

The both of us crawled on top of the bed, not even bothering to pull back any blankets or undress any further, as Edward smoothly wrapped his arms around me, pressing my back to his chest.

My heavy eyes closed immediately, my world slowing down at last, as I felt Edward place a soft kiss to the back of my neck, his subtle breaths warming and soothing me all the more as we lie motionless like this, ready to finally fall into a deep sleep.

"Welcome home, Jascha..." Edward whispered dreamily into my hair, and it was the last thing I heard before a recuperative slumber overtook me.

Many hours later that evening...

"...mmh..." I whimpered partially incoherently, my fast hold on sleep steadily leaving me as my senses became more and more aware, awakening me in the best possible way as I began noticing a featherlight pressure occurring over and over to my abdomen.

Licking the roof of my mouth, I slowly blinked my eyes open, noticing a pleasurable weight settled in between my legs as Edward pushed my white dress shirt up a little higher so he may press another candy-sweet kiss to my stomach.

I chuckled gleefully at the sight of my Edward's own adorable smirk as he rested his chin just below my navel and looked up at me with those sparkling green eyes of his.

God, he was beautiful.

"Dobroy..." I began before flicking my eyes over to the shaded windows beside the bed, noticing that it was, in fact, dark outside, "...nochi, lyubimaya,"

Edward's dazzling smile only grew across his handsome features, his hands holding onto my hips, as he parted his ruby-red lips to speak to me.

"How do you feel now that you've gotten some rest, baby?" Edward asked me gently, his voice a loving breeze coasting over my flesh and soul before he lowered his mouth to my abdomen once more and merely touched his lips to my sensitive, tattooed skin.

"...much better," I cooed in cotton-soft bliss, unable to help the smile from my face as my senses felt almost enchanted by this pure, intimate moment with Edward, like I could live in it forever, like it was correcting everything that had been previous off with me before.

"Good," Edward raised his warm, emerald obs back to mine as he spoke, before carefully beginning to sit up from his lying position.

Lazy grin still in place, I used the newly found freedom of my legs to stretch out my limbs where I lie on the hotel bed, feeling easily one thousand times better, rejuvenated with more energy, than I had whence we had first entered this room.

I was not sure how much time had passed with Edward and I just sleeping, but it felt like a new day had come in which there would be no problems, nothing to think about...where I could just relax...just like this.

"I don't know about you...but I need a shower," Edward laughed as he spoke, a magical sound seeming to reverberate right through me as I watched as he stood up to his full height and offered his hand for me to take.

I would always accept his hand.

Edward's strong, life-saving fingers squeezing my own, he helped me to stand up from the bed, as the pair of us made our way to the adjacent, matching bathroom, my keen eyes noticing the increased presence of the wood tones inside this room which gave it a much more down-to-earth feel.

Almost immediately, Edward's arms were wrapped securely around me, hugging me tightly to him as he buried his face in my shoulder for one, heart-warming moment as I obligingly slid my hands up his back.

"...I feel like I'm still dreaming...I don't think I want to wake up," I mused my thoughts aloud, prompting my lover to raise his penny-colored head up from my shoulder to look me warmly in the eye as he brought his hands around to the buttons of my shirt.

"...then don't, honey...just keep sleeping...I'll be right there with you..." Edward provided easily, his words seeming to always to be able to answer any and all of my thoughts or concerns, as if he always knew just what to say that would smooth out the wrinkles in my worries.

"...mmm..." I purred silkily as he let my lightweight shirt flutter to the tiled floor below whilst already latching his fingers onto the zipper of my black jeans.

Our lips met sensuously as I slipped my arms around Edward's neck, massaging his broad, bare shoulder blades in my hands as I opened my mouth to him, eager for his taste, ready to have him claim me once more in that beautiful way that he would.

His velvet tongue swirled enticingly with my own, stroking me perfectly in such a way that had me seeing stars behind my eyelids and able to touch my fingertips against heaven; Edward pushed my jeans down my hips as he lustfully captured my bottom lip in between his teeth, nipping at my flesh and making me whimper with need.

Edward growled lowly, the sound coursing through me and making me shiver as my lover hurriedly stripped himself of his own dark grey slacks before carefully walking the both of us inside the glass shower.

Our lips struggled heatedly to stay connected whilst we moved, my hands greedily roaming over Edward's smooth chest and down his abdomen, knowing that he loved such raw, sexual praise of his body, as he squeezed suggestively at my hips, just like how he would if was already buried inside of me.

I hummed from his ministrations before the need for air forced me to pry my kiss-swollen lips away from his, the tip of my tongue automatically running across the seam of my mouth as I panted softly, watching as my green-eyed lover bent down to turn on the water for our shower, barely even testing the temperature until his lips returned to my own.

"Jascha...I need you so bad...feel what you're doing to me, baby..." Edward's lowly spoken voice was laced with fiery gravel as he took one of my hands in his own and brought it to his straining erection, our lips just barely touching as the gloriously hot water began raining down on us from above.

"Ohh...shit...Edward..." I whined as I gripped his length hard, leisurely stroking my palm up and down his engorged flesh as the shower warmed our bodies and moistened our skin whilst we continued to touch.

Right before my eyes, I witnessed as calm jade darkened into startling forest green as Edward roughly seized my ass in his hands, slamming our yearning lips and tongues back together as he massaged my round globes, sliding his fingers in between as he teased me with promises of what was to come.

I trembled against Edward's slick, perfect chest, my breath catching in my throat as my lover slowly pushed one of his fingers inside my entrance but only to ease it back out so that I was left wanting more.

Edward always knew how to make me a pleading mess.

"...Edward...please..." I whispered, my voice a mere coo against the steady pouring of water, before I boldly but not hastily released myself from Edward's embrace so that I may turn around where I stood.

My frozen winter eyes locked onto Edward's gorgeous face as he brazenly raked his steamy eyes up and down my exposed frame, I brought one hand up to brace my weight against the clouded glass while I retrieved the small white bottle of body wash with the other.

"...take me...no waiting...just make love to me, Edward...I'm dying to feel you moving inside of me," I begged shamelessly, ever-so slightly bending over my body so that my ass was fully within his grasp for the taking, as I applied a little more strength in my arm that rested against the shower door.

Another gasp was stolen from my throat as I felt Edward take the body wash from my hand before digging his sex against my ass, letting me feel exactly what he wanted to do to me, as his hips languidly moved from side to side, making his long, thick member drag across my sensitive entrance.

"Ahh...J-Jesus..." I could not help but stutter aloud, practically able to feel my blood ignite with blue-white flames racing through my systems, sparking at my limbs, tugging at my heart, and making me feel absolutely weightless in my urgent need to be passionate with this man.

"...you like that...don't worry sweetheart...I'll have you screaming in no time," Edward stated with smoke in his words, nearly making me moan aloud just from how impossibly hard I was becoming from his sultry actions and sinful words to me.

Then, his hands, his warm, loving hands, were running all over every inch of my skin, as Edward sensuously washed my body with the light-scented gel, lubricated fingers trailing over seemingly every patch of skin I had, making me drown in the sheer love permeating from my lover's generous ministrations.

I sighed in utter euphoria as my delicious American boyfriend rubbed at my back with the soap, washed my arms, squeezed at my thighs, and then teased with lingering touches over my ass, all of it easily making me tip my head forward so that I could rest my forehead against the glass in front of me as well.

"...now Edward, please...I'm begging...give it to me..." I breathed the words, secretly in love with the way Edward's words had set me on fire but only to let me simmer hotly with his candy-sweet touches that had me just about ready to die contently from such mind-breaking torture.

"Honey...I don't want to hurt you..." Edward voiced fairly behind me, his hands coming to grip either side of my waist before running smoothly up my abdomen and chest, my lover continuing to wash me as leisurely whilst we spoke so tenderly to each other.

"You won't...I swear...just please...do it already...I'll be alright," I promised my forever caring, green-eyed boyfriend, purposefully pushing my ass a little more against Edward's groin to prove my point as I listened to him groan.

"You got it..." Edward acquiesced at last, removing his hands to, no doubt, spread the slippery substance over his cock, before he leaned more of his sopping wet frame against my own, "...forgive me for not going slow...I can't help it this time..."

Exactly what I had wanted to hear.

"Yes...tovaras..." I purred amiably, smiling as my drenched locks of hair hung down heavily on either side of my face as I readied myself for Edward's next move.

"Fucking hell, Jascha..." Edward whispered to the translucent water that continued to rain warmly around us, allowing copious amounts of powder-white steam to curl around our joining bodies, as Edward nudged my entrance with the wide tip of his cock before carefully easing his length inside my puckered flesh, "...ohh...God...I love you so much..."

"...mmf..." I pressed my lips together upon feeling my body stretch wide open to accommodate Edward's impressive size, the discomfort minimal as I finally received that which I had craved most as my muscles instinctively knew to relax around the silken yet sturdy intrusion, "...haa...ahh..."

"Tell me you're okay, baby...mmn...tell me that you're okay..." Edward plead with me with shaky, breathless words, his fingers trailing up and down my sides before coming to rest on either of my shoulders, his hips only stilling for a moment once he was fully seated within my hot channel before he already began pulling his heavy member out of my tingling, needy body.

"Ohh...E-Edward...m'fine...keep going...God...k-keep going, tovaras..." my words were slurred, barely cognizant as they flowed from my dripping lips, my back arching slowly, seductively the instant I felt Edward shove his thick sex back inside my entrance, my lover delightfully impatient to be inside me once again.

"Christ, Jascha...so fucking tight...feels incredible, baby..." Edward rambled sweetly as his ministrations became more and more aggressive, everything creating a wonderful haze to overtake me and wrap me in something ethereal as I moaned in pure, unspeakable pleasure, pleasure that originated from receiving exactly what my very soul needed to feel complete.

Edward's resilient hands on my shoulders anchored me to him, allowing his thrusts to be expertly executed, as I hollered sensually each time his long member plunged deep within my quivering channel, massaging my inner walls until the head of his cock pounded against my prostate.

"Ha...ohh...Edward...fuck yes...yes...there, baby...holy shit!" I cried out, trying to arch my back once more but only to be stopped by the iron-clad grip of my lover's hands on me, as Edward kept me bent over for him, knowing that I would receive the most ecstasy this way.

I tossed my head back in amazing, accumulating euphoria, my teeth grit only for a moment before another loud, legato moan was pulled from my parted lips as I pawed my hands at the glass in front of me in a vain attempt to deal with such immense pleasure coursing through my body at this moment.

"...Ed...Edward...Jesus...love, I can't...ohh...my God..." I struggled to voice what I was feeling, the sheer magnitude of love I had for this man, for the beautiful love we were making together, totally blotting my brain with spots of rampant, unconditional joy, a sensation I seemed to experience whenever Edward and I were so fiercely passionate with each other like this.

However, cutting off my aimless words of elation, Edward suddenly freed his hands from my shoulders, allowing my back to straighten at once, as he, instead, gripped the back of one of my thighs as well as one of my hips so that he may quickly push us both forward.

My chest pressed against the glass, making me shudder as my nipples were teased by the solid surface, as Edward flattened his tall form against my own, his chest melding perfectly to my back as I could feel his moving abdomen and groin practically adhering to my lower back and ass.

I groaned with raging heat in my tone as Edward covered my hands with his own against the glass of the shower compartment, every inch of his body grinding against my own as we both sought out release in such as way that had my eyes rolling in the back of my head and my toes curling against the cool tiles of the floor.

This was what I lived for...this right now...feeling absolutely inseparable from Edward, as if the two of us were of the same entity, the same living force...and that we only needed each other to survive in this world.

I loved this.

"I'm getting close, Jascha...it's been too fucking long and you feel too fucking good..." Edward had placed his lips on the side of my neck before growling out such white-hot words to me, his fingers squeezing over my own before we naturally intertwined our fingers together.

"Ohh...me too, baby...just a little more...haa...God...Edward...I love you...I love you...ahh...so good...!" my words mingled seamlessly with my moans, my body becoming desperate to experience relief as I could feel my untouched cock swell with my excruciating need to orgasm, making my blood rush hotter, the outside world a little fainter, as I clung to Edward's hands for dear life.

"Right now...come, baby...I want to see you come...do it...all over this fucking glass door," Edward demanded of my overheating, ultra-sensitive body, his hips continuing to grind wonderfully harshly into my ass, digging his member farther and farther into me as we both chased after our release with one another.

"Ohh fuck...oh fuck...haa...!" I cursed mindlessly, my eyes squeezing tight as time seemed to still for a moment as I felt the tightly coiled spring in my groin completely snap loose, my staggering orgasm flowing from me in miraculous waves that crashed and crashed again against the clouded glass.

"...ugh...Jascha...baby..." Edward's voice sounded like a pleading warning to me, before I felt him sink his teeth into the flesh of my shoulder, biting down hard and making me instantly cry out in a satisfying mixture of razor-fine pain to edge across the heightened pleasure in which I was currently drowning.

My body shook from the tremors of my soaring fulfillment, my soft moans continuing to pour from my lips, as I absolutely relished in the muffled groans of ecstasy coming from Edward as he came inside me, his hips jerking forward in short, staccato movements to prolong both of our pleasure, our joining, as he emptied himself inside my quivering channel.

I loved feeling Edward at the peak of his passion; I loved experiencing his climax as if it were some extension of my own, as my bronze-haired lover leaned his weight heavily against me, the both of us cradling the other in the midst of our shared bliss.

I tipped my head back to rest along the top of his slick shoulder, feeling my lover's actions slowing down to a pleasant stop, as the two of us merely remained as we were, connected and happy, as I felt the subtle puffs of his breath ghost along my throat.

"...wow..." I whispered with a growing but lazy smirk as Edward slowly wrapped his arms around my middle, simply holding me as the two of us let the shower water blanket us with its warmth and simplicity, rendering such a moment almost surreal as we let the water cleanse our bodies but renew our entire beings.

"...oh, honey...I must have hurt you..." Edward spoke quietly before he kissed the tender spot on my shoulder that he had bitten, "...I'm sorry, baby doll...I didn't mean..."

"Shh...tovaras..." I cut him off gently, my smile still in place as I brought my hands down to his arms, lightly squeezing his strong limbs to emphasize my words to him, "...it's alright...you didn't hurt me at all...I love the things you do to me..."

"Hm..." I could practically feel the smile now becoming my lover's handsome face, as he hugged me a little tighter to him, making me feel even more in paradise than I already was.

"Jascha..." Edward cooed my name like it was his favorite word, prompting me to open my eyes I had not realized I had closed, as the surrounding, constant water coupled with the safety and security of Edward's arms around me had truly placed me in a walking slumber, as if I were actually still dreaming just like I had said to him earlier in slight jest.

"Yeah...?" I responded sluggishly, every one of my senses totally absorbed in Edward, the way his body felt holding my own, the way I could still catch his calming scent in spite of the body wash we had used before, the way he just...made me feel like a better person simply by being with me and taking the time to love me like he always would.

I never wanted to move away from this feeling...never wanted it to end.

"Not that I don't love being with you like this..." Edward trailed off for effect, his lightheartedness present in his tone as he gave me another squeeze with his arms before releasing me from his wonderful embrace so that I may turn around and face him, "...but we still have plenty to do here in Saint Petersburg...plus the water is freezing..."

I could not contain the laughter that seemed to spring forth, Edward joining in at once, as I finally did recognize that our shower had, in fact, dropped several degrees during our lovemaking and was now raising tiny goosebumps along both mine and Edward's arms.

"I think you're right..." I said as my laughter subsided, placing a quick kiss to his upturned lips before fixing him with a sideways look as I quirked up an eyebrow, "...you're going to love Saint Petersburg."

"I already know I will, too..." Edward supplied effortlessly, smirking at my knowing expression, as he ran his hands up either of my forearms before trailing them back down again, his lovely jade eyes still watching my features closely whilst he continued, "...because I love you...and anything that matters to you matters to me, sweetheart."

I felt my heart swell at my lover's words, my smile bright and full of the life Edward had ultimately given me, as I forgot about the cooling water all over again and leaned forward to kiss my beloved man.

I needed to feel his precious lips moving against my own as soon as possible upon hearing such meaningful poetry being spoken to me, and I loved how Edward seemed to forget about everything else just as I had, as he slid his hands inside my own so he may lock our fingers together.

Our kiss was beautiful, speaking of our unyielding love for each other, for the things that that same love meant for our lives...this kiss...was our lives in its simplest form, and perhaps that was the reason why they had always meant so much to me.

I should have never stopped dreaming this dream...
