Sorry this took so long everyone! But I had a lot of ground to cover and didn't have much time as I am leaving for vacation tomorrow (FINALLY LOL) so I had to churn this bad boy out. It took a while but I think you all will agree it was worth the wait. As always your reviews are love! I could not do without them!
Much love and thanks to my girl Misty with whom I share many pervy conversations with LOL.
ENJOY!
XOXO Maria
It was dark.
And warm.
And still.
Edward was lying on some sort of bed…or was it a cot? Why were the blankets so itchy? Why did the air smell stale? Where was the pillow, the glow of the outside streetlights? Why did he feel caged and well…he wasn't frightened…he was…
Aware.
Yes he could feel everything, hear and smell the slightest hints that he was not in his home. He knew that he was caged and couldn't get out…he knew that he was going to be here for a very very long time.
Edward also began to feel something else growing within him. It was hot and slightly confusing and oh so real. His skin was flushed and his limbs quivered with unsung emotion. When he shifted slightly in the blankets the sensation of the fabric made his skin crawl in pleasure and he moaned rubbing himself against the cloth desperate to feel the sensation again and again…
But with his heightened senses Edward suddenly knew he wasn't alone.
No in the corner in the darkness there was another…a predator…someone stronger faster more powerful, that watched and wanted him.
And he wanted him too.
So he stretched and strained until his ass was in the air presenting himself to whomever was observing his lust and heat. Moaning he wiggled and whined pleading without words for the dominant to take him…
He didn't have to wait long.
The hands were large that gripped his ass, calloused and coarse and strong. They had seen fights and a harsh world. The smell that washed over Edward was manly and gave his mouth a salty edge as it wafted through his nose. The man's breath was harsh and ragged but he hadn't spoken yet.
Edward didn't dare utter a word.
All he could do was lay there in helpless lust as his watcher rutted his long thick cock against his ass crack the pre cum making his hole and checks sticky and wet.
How glorious…his own dick was about to explode.
But before Edward could reach ecstasy the man suddenly flipped him over onto his back and he gaped in awe at the sight of Jasper reaching orgasm all over his…
Edward woke up.
And had apparently cum all over his 800 thread count sheets or had wet the bed in the first time since he was 9.
Groggily he lifted his hand and pulled back the blue cloth to reveal a white sticky mess all over his stomach.
Oh my Lord.
He had a wet dream. About Jasper fucking him in what was most likely a jail cell. What the hell? Where did the nice dreams go? The kind where there was a meadow and flowers and gentle sex on a cashmere throw? Didn't he want nibbles and naked loving? A moonlight sky and all of the things that made him swoon every time he read a romance novel?
Not that he believed that life was like a romance novel but…a ay boy can dream right? Wasn't his sex dreams supposed to be more like a Cassie Edwards novel instead of a slightly darker Sherylin Kenyon book? Did he have a fetish now? A jail/dirty sex fetish about his sexy and oh so sweet neighbor? He never thought he had any fetishes! The worst it got was the occasional spanking during porn time!
Edward was frantic to figure it out and knew that there was only one person in his life who was the queen of kink and all things obscene.
Still sticky Edward reached over to his bedside table grabbed his phone and dialed Seth's number.
Drawing his legs up into a nervous sitting position Edward listened intently as the callback blared and then as soon as he heard the crackle to a person picking up he burst.
"Seth! I just as a wet dream about Jasper dry humping me in jail!" he was out of breath he was so worked up.
There was a long pause.
And a voice that was clearly not Seth's high pitched tone laughed heartily.
"Um…thanks for sharing Edward."
Edward's eyes bulged and he flamed red.
"Sam! What are you doing with Seth's phone?"
"Relax, he was in the shower and I knew we were picking you guys up this morning so I didn't want to miss the call if it was important….so a wet dream huh?"
He scowled and hopped out of bed crab walking to the bathroom to avoid any more stickiness. "This isn't funny Sam Ulley. I just had this incredibly dark embarrassing sexual moment with the object of my affections…it's no laughing matter!"
Sam was roaring over the speaker. "Had a naughty little dream about Jasper huh Eddie?"
"This isn't that amusing Sam…Yes I had a…very vivid sexual dream about a person who I care very much about and you…Sam! I said stop laughing!" He wet a wash cloth and dabbed at the white mess on his stomach and groin, glancing at the clock mounted on the wall above the mirror. Almost 10 he had to hurry. Jasper would be here in 20 minuetes.
"Sorry Eddie," Sam finally composed himself, "I'm not trying to make fun of you its just…why are you freaking out? It's no big deal! So you had a dirty dream big deal."
"You weren't there! It was like in some prison cell and there was darkness and it was so…I don't know Sam it was just so not me!"
"Do you think it was more…Jasper then?" his friend asked. "That he might have caused you to think this way?"
"I…I don't know. Maybe? I mean it is so obvious that he isn't a well…he isn't a romance novel is he?"
Sam chuckled a little. "I don't think that Edward I think that maybe…he's more of a…Jasper is more like the movie Rocky…kind of rough and dirty but…you know he loves Adrian."
Edward laughed a little and walked out of the bathroom already feeling better. It wasn't often that he and Sam got to talk and it was nice to get a different perspective on this whole ordeal.
"Come on…I think that's taking it a little far," Edward sighed, " I don't think he loves me yet. Like yes…for sure but…"
"No." Sam's voice was soft and warm, "I think you guys are just like Rocky and Adrian."
Edward was about to button his jeans when he suddenly heard Seth in the background ask who was on the phone.
"Edward," replied his husband, "He had a wet dream."
"Sam!" he yelled in mortification. "Don't say it like that!"
There was some fumbling and Seth chimed in over the speaker.
"Hello Darling? What do we owe this charming little phone call at such an early hour? I haven't even gotten my moisturizer on yet! Jasper didn't cancel did he?"
"No Babe," Sam answered before he could, "Eddie just had a weird sex dream and wanted to tell you about it."
Edward slapped a hand to his cheek in horror, "Sam! Don't say it like that!"
Sam just chuckled and he could hear Seth clucking his tongue. "Was it the dream where you got raped by eggplants again? It was wasn't it! Edward you know better than to watch X-Tube right before going to bed!"
"Oh for Madonna's sake!" Sam was roaring in the back ground in laughter, "It was not THAT dream…I had a dream about Jasper."
"Ohhhh! Juciy! Was it good?"
He sighed and toed on his shoes, " Well it was the first wet dream I've had since that one about since that one I had about Marc Franklin in the 9th grade….and you remember my obsessive love for Mark and the thoughts of getting some alone time with him behind the dugout at the baseball field." He sighed, thoughts briefly drifting over the idea of Jasper in Marks white and red pinstripe uniform showing him just what kind of batter he was and how he could use his baseball bat…
Fantastic he was getting hard again. Agh… he didn't have time for jerking off! Jasper was going to be here any second.
All of a sudden he realized that Seth had stopped talking and that there was an odd sucking noise over the phone…and moaning?
"Seth?" he whispered tentatively.
There was a yelp, and a groan and Sam suddenly fumbled over the line, "Edward sorry the talk about your weirdo sex dream and Seth being in a towel made me horny…give us an extra 20 minutes."
Before he could answer Seth moaned something slurped and then the line went dead.
Edward stared at his phone for a second or two and then shook his head willing his boner to deflate so when he answered the door, Jasper wouldn't think he was a complete pervert.
Or maybe he should…maybe Jasper would get turned on and then sweep him up into his sexy tattooed arms and then make him get on his knees and shove his big thick…
The knock on his door started Edward out of his fantasy and he realized that he was now alert in every way possible and that his dick looked like an antenna trying to reach the signal coming from beyond the door.
Oh Cher what was he going to do? Jasper was waiting for him and he was certainly ready for him! Grabbing his comforter off his bed and wrapping his fully clothed self in it, he sprinted over to the door and flung it open.
Jasper stood there in a ratty green hunters coat his hair slightly less messy than normal and a slight smirk on his soft lips as he took in his flushed appearance. Edward could smell the light touch of shaving cream and soap coming off of him, and that with just the sight of the man who in his deepest thoughts had fucked him within an inch of breath was standing before him…suddenly his down comforter wasn't such a silly cover up after all. In fact he would probably have to wear it around all day to help hide what Jasper was now capable to doing to him.
"Mornin' Edward," he drawled with a slight nod, "Did I come too early?"
"No! I um…overslept! Give me a second and I'll be right there!" He shuffled back into the bedroom threw off his bed clothes and waited for a second to pretend he was actually getting dressed.
Now Edward had never been an eve's dropper but he couldn't help but tip toe over to his door which was cracked just a bit and look out into his living room at Jasper.
His neighbor was pacing slowly along the floor looking at his pictures along the garland adorned fire place. Several of the pictures were of him and his family and friends however there was one large 8x10 of his senior portrait among the frames. Curiously he watched as Jasper ran a finger along the side of the picture…it made him feel all warm inside even if those hands were touching a mere imprint of his face.
Feeling that enough time had passed, Edward glided out to where Jasper stood and laughed as he jumped slightly at the suddenness of his presence.
"It's a pretty weird picture huh?" he pointed to the photo of his 17 year old smiling face.
Jasper just blushed and laughed a little, "Naw…ya look real cute."
"Psh…I'm glad you think so…at that time I made them take another picture just to get all my good angles…Seth made them retake his four times!"
Jasper smirked, "He's kinda weird like tha' huh? I'm real grateful though tha' you and him are gonna do this for me today…ya know ya didn't have to."
"Jasper trust me! I am more than happy to do this! And Seth about peed himself when I asked if he would help with this! But…I don't want you to think that you have to…Honestly Jasper you can come to Christmas dinner however you want to…no one would even care!"
Shaking his head Jasper replied, "Edward I ain't goin' ta your family's house lookin' like the slum I am…" the bitterness in his voice made Edward cringe, "Yer mama and you both asked me nicely ta' come an' I want more than anythin' ta make ya'…proud ta be standin' next ta me."
As usual when the wall of the unexplained shame would fall over Jasper's face he would look to the ground. Usually in these situations Edward would call his name or speak to get him to look up…but things were different then they had once been.
Gently Edward took Jaspers hands, marveling at the strength and calloused warmth they possessed. A gasping sigh escaped the blonde mans parted lips and his gaze shot up to Edwards own smiling one.
"Jasper…I could never be ashamed of you." He gave him a reassuring smile enjoying the look of unexplained hope that filled the beautiful stormy eyes. A rough fingertip ghosted over his enclosed knuckles.
Edward was positive this was going to be a good day.
XxXxXxXx
The wind was bitterly cold as they stood outside on the sidewalk, watching as a huge cobalt blue Dodge Ram chugged down the road towards them. Edward smiled secretly at the thought of Seth in the large manly man car that he adored and loved almost as much as he loved Sam. Throughout their lives Seth had always loved big things: big sunglasses, big cell phones, and big men. Cars were no different. Sam also preferred the gas guzzling trucks though his use in the pipeline business was more practical. Seth simply preferred them because they were "big and fun like a porn stars dick".
The latest Lady Gaga reached their ears, and Edward giggled at the surprised look that crossed Jaspers face when the truck reached them and Seth rolled down his driver side window.
"Good morning boys! Ready to hack our way through the retail jungle?" His neighbor paled and Edward just smiled and urged him into the backseat of the truck. Sam was sitting in the passenger seat, clothed in his construction clothing and hard hat.
"I don't think that question was directed at you Edward," Sam looked over his shoulder at the obviously bewildered Jasper. "The question is Jasper ready to face you both in full blown shopping mode?"
Before the man could answer, Edward held a finger to his lips and pointed with a grin to the obviously ruffled Seth. Sam knew just how to push Seth's usually unusable buttons and it was always the highlight of their get togethers.
"And what is that supposed to mean?" Seth shot back.
"Babe, you know what I'm talking about…remember when you took me shopping last time?"
"Sam! That happened one time and we are not discussing the incident!" he stuck out his lip but Sam was on a role. He turned around and looked at Jasper who was staring at them wide eyed.
"Jasper, this little hellion decided that we were going to visit every men's clothing store in the entire mall complex and it resulted in 2 girls being fired a sexual harassment claim against a security guard and us being banned from that mall for the next 2 years."
Now Seth's eyes had dangerously narrowed and he hissed out, "Oh please you liked that I ran around that Macys ordering around everyone…it turned you on." Now it was his turn to arch back and say to Jasper: "I have never had my ass plowed like I did that night up until then… after him watching me try on those Burberry underwear it was all over for my poor little bum!"
"Yeah and you enjoyed every second of it!" There was obvious ease and comfort that they had as they bantered back and forth. It was a simplicity one born of familiarity and love that Edward longed to have one day for himself. Though Seth would always be close to him as a brother of sorts he and Sam were completely enraptured with one another, getting closer as the years went on.
Feeling that Jasper had been frightened enough by Sam's Tales From Beyond the Dressing Room, Edward steered the conversation to their plans for Christmas and New Year. Since neither of them had any family in the area any longer Seth and Sam had recently been joining his own clan on holidays. This year would be the same, and Edward was more grateful than ever that Jasper would have some people he knew there when he first encountered the Cullen Family Italian/English Christmas Extravaganza. Not that his family wouldn't embrace Jasper with open arms, it was just that his quiet gruff neighbor was so painfully shy around new people. Since Seth's big mouth was the ultimate ice breaker he was confident that all would be well.
New Years for them was never really a family thing however and Edward and Seth and Bella would frequent the gay bars of their youth enjoying the alcohol and dancing to the break of a new beginning. Over the years boyfriends and now husbands had joined in on their fun, making the drunken fest even more fun.
Now Edward wondered if Jasper, by some whisp of Christmas magic would feel comfortable in a gay bar…only time would tell. But meanwhile he would extend the invitation to him and hope that he would accept to spend the night with them.
And Edward couldn't help but hope that perhaps when the ball dropped that Jasper would be the one to give him a kiss for the New Year.
"Edward," asked Seth breaking him out of his thoughts, "I'm getting coffee do you want anything?" In the distance the Starbucks that they frequented appeared and Edward coffee addiction sprang into action.
"Oh! Yes! I'll go in with you…God I have been craving a Peppermint Mocha all yesterday…I need it!" He looked over at Jasper. "What would you like?"
Jasper looked scared, "I um…I don't know…I've never had Starbucks before."
Seth slammed on the breaks.
All was silent in the car and then slowly Seth's head turned around, and he fixed Jasper with a horrified expression, that made Edward and Sam laugh and the blonde man shrink into the backseat.
"You…have never had Starbucks?" Jasper shook his head. "Never? Not even the brewed coffee?"
"Ah…no?" And suddenly they all flew to the left as Seth made a sharp turn into the parking lot.
"This is completely unacceptable! I am appalled! Edward get out right now…we are going to fix him!" Edward gave Jasper's hand a squeeze and opened the door, hopping down and followed the furious Seth inside.
XxXxXxXx
"You alright man?" Sam asked Jasper as soon as Edward and Seth disappeared inside the store.
"Yeah…I guess so." He laughed a little at the whole insane situation. Here he was going clothing shopping with the object of his affections and a mini hurricane called Seth. He was nervous about being in a crowded mall but…well he'd been nervous about a lot of things lately. He was still on obvious alert for James to appear and he was still dealing with the feelings of worthlessness and yearning for familiarity in his life. Although the job Jacob had given him was more than helpful and gave him a sense of purpose and drive…there were moments when he still felt the pull of the streets tugging at him. Even now as he sat ready to do something he had never done before, shop with the 100 dollars burning a hole in his pocket he still couldn't help but think that if he sold a little more…black mailed someone he could have a little more money. Ideas like these were almost constant. Almost threatened to consume him and kill him…or turn him back into what he was.
Almost.
Almost because there was a force…a presence that would keep the pain and loneliness at bay and make him bask in the light…maybe see that he was worth something more. And it had just gone into a freaking coffee shop.
Sam rustling to turn around in the front seat broke his thoughts and he looked up at the rough man.
"How have you been? Doing ok?" he asked.
"I've been..alrigh' I guess. Been workin' with Jacob an' I like it a lot. Nice ta have a little money comin' my way." Jasper answered though he knew what Sam was asking him and it didn't have anything to do with his job situation.
"Well that's good and all but I meant…how have things been with well…you know your past and all…still dealing ok?"
Jasper thought about telling him about James…he really did. Sam and then Jacob because of all people those two would know the most how to deal with the dilemma he was facing. They were street smart and knew how dangerous people like James could be.
But he just couldn't.
Not for pride or ego but fear. Because of selfish fear that if he told them they would tell him to stay away from the one person who was keeping him sane and on the right path. Because he knew that they would be right in keeping him away.
But Jasper just could not tell him.
Luckily he was saved by the return of Edward and Seth and the subject was dropped.
XxXxXxXx
Four hours later, after dropping Sam off at the construction site where the pipes would be put in for some building, Jasper found himself standing in a dressing room in a store called the Gap with a mountain of unfolded clothing at his feet. Wearing dark jeans and a brand new V neck sweater that Edward had called 'the perfect robin's egg blue', he actually was surprised that he wasn't in as much pain as he had initially thought shopping would bring him. As a matter of fact he could comfortably say that he was enjoying this. For the most of his life he had either not had any clothing that fit, wore second hand shit from the Good Will or in recent years been forced to don the day glow orange jumpsuit that marked him as a prisoner. It was refreshing to be able to wear brand new shirts and pants and be able to look in a nice mirror at himself for a change.
And the enthusiasm of his two conspiring shoppers was also a bonus.
Seth and Edward were waiting patiently outside the door to his dressing room chatting and giggling away about how nice he looked and which color or store should they try next. Though on the surface Jasper had initially thought that clothing shopping was just as simple as going in picking out a couple of things in your size and that was it.
Apparently he was wrong.
Edward and Seth both explained that fashion whether it be for a woman or a man was an art, a skilled game of choice and taste that was played each day when you got dressed.
"You see my dear Jasper," Seth had told him earlier as they entered the mall, "People like to think that clothing means nothing that colors are colors and that appearance doesn't matter. But it does…to yourself!"
Edward chimed in on his other side, " A lot of them time others think that those of us who can appreciate a brand or making certain we look perfect before we go to the store, are just consumed with outward appearances! But they couldn't be more wrong!"
Seth finished, "Perhaps that it true for a few shallow souls but let me tell you something…when I am wearing my best tightest pair of D&G Dark Wash jeans and Sam is drooling it isn't because I hide behind the jeans or that they are why I feel sexy…I feel sexy because I know I can rock anything well-made and well selected and that allows me to strut my stuff like Giselle Bundchen."
"You wear the jeans but the jeans shall never wear you!" finished Edward.
Jasper didn't really understand until they began. And surprisingly enough they were right. He did feel better about himself when he had on the stuff they had picked out for him.
Coming back to the present he took one final look in the mirror and unlatched the door to see Edward and Seth perched on big fluffy chairs their eyes going wide as he emerged.
"Dear baby Jesus…" Seth whispered holding a hand to his chest. Edwards grin went straight to his groin and his red head stood up and circled him.
"Jasper…you look stunning!"
"Really?" he held his arms out a little and smirked, "Ya' really think so?" They both turned and faced the mirror and for the first time Jasper looked at the both of them together, as Edwards soft hand rested on his forearm. Being next to him in these clothes he looked like he should actually be able to stand near Edward and not look out of place.
His companion's eyes were soft and warm and his pretty lips smiled gently at their reflections, seeming to be as aware of how they looked as he was.
"I think you look like a million bucks…although you always looked good to me." He didn't even hide his blush this time and those green eyes were steady and beautiful looking into his own.
"Yeah…well I coulda' looked better ya know?" he laughed a little but Edward shook his head.
"Remember what I said? It isn't the clothes but how you wear what you have…and I think," he circled around to clasp his hands gently, "That you look best when you are wearing that smile you have right now."
And just like that Jaspers heart melted even more, and his stomach fluttered and he wanted so badly to lean down and kiss his smile onto Edwards own.
But Seth cleared his throat and the spell broke. They both looked back almost surprised to see the little man sitting there with his arms folded and a slightly naughty grin to his face.
"Edward," he said, "I think that we should try one more color on Jasper…that nice cranberry one in the front of the store? Can you go get it?"
Reluctantly Edward left their sides and then it was just Jasper and Seth.
Seth walked up to him and turned him to face the mirror smiling at their reflections.
"You looked good together you know." He smiled up at him. "Actually good is a pathetic word…you looked stunning standing next to each other, as if you were made to complement both of you."
"Thanks Sethie," Jasper said with genuine affection, "That's a real nice thing ta' say."
"I say it because it's the truth…you both are being silly wasting your time with all of this flirting…life is far too short to waste all this on flirting and glances. I have known Edward for years honey and trust me, he is WAITING for you to just swoop in and make him yours."
Jasper looked down and whispered, "How can ya' be so sure?"
Seth rolled his eyes but his smile was kind and almost dreamy, "Because he looks at you the way I look at Sam and you look at Edward the way Sam stairs at me. I may be younger than most but I know that look of entrapment that love and lust bring to your eyes. If I hadn't then years ago when I was dancing on a table in my underwear in that dark crowded bar I never would have noticed a certain long haired bouncer named Sam looking at me."
Jasper watched him as his eyes smiled in a faraway look as if he was reliving the past and he couldn't help but laugh though at the idea of Seth dancing in his underwear.
"Naked dancin' huh?" he chuckled and Seth blushed slightly.
"That my dear is a tale for another day!"
It was decided when Edward returned that the blue would be best for the occasion and they wrapped up their purchases and headed back out into the mall walking towards the exit.
No one was paying attention when all of a sudden a booming voice called out behind them making Jasper jump in fear.
"Yo! Edward! Seth!" they all turned and a large man with black curly hair carrying a load of bags and a beautiful blonde woman trotting beside him were coming their way.
Though Seth and Edward both smiled and appeared at ease…Jasper felt himself take a step back as soon as he spotted what the two people were dressed in.
They were cops.
Fuck it.
He willed himself to keep calm that they weren't there to hurt him or take him away but his heart still raced and his palms became sweaty. He was sure he face looked grim though he was trying to not appear menacing.
"Emmett! Rosey!" Edward laughed and went up hugging the man and woman, Seth following suit.
"How is my baby brother? I haven't seen you in forever!"
"Oh you know how this time of year is for me , Em…I am so busy with all the food orders!"
The woman named Rose chimed in, "I know but we miss you! Your nieces have been asking where you have been."
Edward looked sheepish. "Yeah well things have been busy…but I can't wait to see them!"
Emmett grinned and he patted Edward on the back, "So what bring you here?"
"We were shopping for Jasper," Seth explained and they all turned to look at him. Jaspers throat went dry.
"Oh how rude of me!" Edward exclaimed and he brought the pair over to where he was standing. He could feel the panic creeping into his pores making sweat form along his upper lip…but for Edward he wouldn't freak out. These might be cops but there was no way they knew about him and they wouldn't do anything …they were related to Edward they wouldn't hurt him….
"Emmett this is my…neighbor and very good friend Jasper Whitlock, Jasper this is my bother Emmett and my sister in law Rosalie but everyone calls her Rosey," he smiled up at him obviously pleased that he was meeting another member of his family.
Trying to divert his nervous energy Jasper licked his lips and rolled up his sleeves fretfully and reached out a sticky hand for each to shake. And he was certain he smiled too because Emmett's wide grin that matched Esme's broke out over his face.
"Glad to meet you man! God mom has been going on about this friend Edward was bringing…I hope you are ready to eat she has been cooking for 5 days now!"
"I'm sure I can handle it," he actually felt himself relax a little. This man was a cop but he was a good one. Not the kind to chase him down or humiliate him for his food or the right to use the bathroom…
However when he shook Rosalie's hand he couldn't help but notice as she eyed him with an almost cold hard stair and an emotionless 'hello'. It gave him the chills and he was glad when she pulled her hand away. Something just didn't sit right with her about him, and it was very obvious.
In that moment he wished he would have worn those clothes he bought out of the store…maybe it would have given him the courage to look her in the eye.
XxXxXxXx
Edward was in a fantastic mood by the time they returned to the apartment. They had had such a good day that he could feel the energy and the bubble of Christmas spirit just waiting to explode inside of him. And now he was coming back to his and Jaspers home and they were going to have a nice evening and then the day after tomorrow it was Christmas Eve! He was just so happy and excited!
"So did you have fun today?" He asked Jasper as they made their way up the elevator to the 3rd floor. "I hope we didn't bore you!"
Jasper smiled at him, "Naw…it was fun. I ain't ever done anythin' like tha' before."
"I'm glad! You looked amazing in your outfit and you will be the life of my mother's Christmas dinner I'm telling you!"
"Well I certainly hope so…" Jasper replied with that same warm smile had had been wearing since they left the Gap. The doors to the elevator opened and they were about to walk out but Jasper suddenly swore and stopped him.
"Damn it forgot my mail…" he fished a key out of his pocket and handed it to Edward, "Jest go on in an' leave the bags on the floor…I'll be back in a second."
Edward nodded happily and stepped out hearing the folded doors close behind him as he made his way down the hall to Jaspers apartment. It really was going to be an amazing holiday this year and already it looked like his Christmas wish this year would come true…a kiss from Jasper! While both of them knew the kissing was going on!
Laughing to himself Edward dropped his bags at the foot of the apartment door and fumbled with the key a little in the lock as it was slightly more stuck then his own handle.
"Excuse me." A soft southern voice behind him made him yelp in surprise and he whirled around. A man with blonde hair and a simple black coat stood there in the soft light of the hallway. Edward relaxed a little at the smile on his face and held a hand to his pounding heart.
"I'm sorry did I startle you?" the man asked.
Edward chuckled nervously, "Just a little I'm sorry I was in my own little world…Can I help you with anything?" The man didn't seem to be a menace, and besides he had a thing now with boys who had southern accents. Maybe he was looking for someone who lived on this floor.
"Actually you can…but first I would like to introduce myself." He held out his hand, " My name is James."
Don't you all just love me right now? I'm taking my laptop with me on vacation though so I will have plenty of time to answer your reviews and start on the next part! Much love you all! (off to pack for the trip!)
