Chapter Eight
"Keep 'em shut."
"I have! Nearly killed myself in the lobby on that first step." Victoria giggled.
Reid held his hands over his girlfriend's eyes as he guided her through their suite. Victoria had been amazing. He genuinely loved her. She helped him be a better man and he found he wanted to be a better man for her. She had this amazing way of making him feel alive just by being near him. Usually he didn't get that feeling unless he was using.
"Ok," Reid stopped, standing right behind Victoria. He leaned down so his mouth was right by her ear, "Open 'em."
Victoria blinked staring into the dark bedroom, "What am I..." Reid winked, felt the rush through his body, the amazing wave of power. Suddenly the hundreds of candles around the room all lit up, revealing the floor to ceiling windows and red rose petals everywhere, including all over the plush king sized bed in the middle of the room, "Oh my god,"
Reid smiled, "I know, a little 'Freddy Prince Jr.', but I thought hey, we only get one prom."
Victoria turned and looked Reid in the eye, "It's amazing."
He smiled down at her, "You like it?"
"I love it!" Victoria lifted herself up onto her toes and crushed her lips against his. Reid wrapped his arms around her, holding her tight to her chest. She pulled back only slightly, "Almost as much as I love you."
Reid smiled, "I love you too." Victoria squealed as Reid reached down and literally swept her off her feet carrying her over to the bed. He let them fall back onto the bed together.
"Reid," Victoria breathed his name and he felt himself getting caught up in her voice, in her perfume, he looked up at her. Victoria arched her back before falling back into the bed, her hand found its way into his hair, he smiled as she brushed it back. Victoria looked up at Reid, her eyes were entirely black, "Reid," she gasped his name.
Reid climbed up the bed to be beside her, "It's ok," he whispered to her, this time it was his turn to brush her hair back. "Just let it roll over you like a wave," he looked down at her body, encased in the beautiful sparkly navy dress. She was tense with adrenaline and excitement, he looked back up at her and met her black eyes with ones just as black. He kissed her on the lips, letting her pull him down on top of her. "Then just let it go," he whispered into her neck.
Reid pulled back to look at Victoria and his blue eyes were greeted by hers. Victoria smiled at him, "A natural," he gently kissed the tip of her nose, before finding her lips again.
"I don't want to fall asleep," Victoria mumbled into the pillow.
Reid held her tight in his arms, he shifted in bed but barely grunted.
"Don't fall asleep!" Victoria insisted, even though she was finding it hard to keep her own eyes open.
"Why not? I'm exhausted," Reid mumbled pressing himself in closer to her as the bigger spoon. "You tired me out," he kissed the back of her neck.
Victoria giggled into her pillow, "I don't want this moment to end."
"It's not gonna, it's just gonna take a quick nap." Reid insisted.
"I love you Reid," Victoria whispered.
"Sweet dreams baby,"
