a/n: I own nothing. [= darn
Considering Edward had so graciously forgot to mention where we were going, and also considering all we'd discussed earlier that day, I decided on a strapless, knee length black dress. It was form fitting up top, and flowed out a little at the waist. I added a low black heel, and light make up. Alice did my hair in loose curls, and I was all set to go by seven on the dot. Five minutes later, Edward had arrived, and we were off to do who knows what.
"How was your day?" I asked, making conversation. "Good. We were pretty slow today which was good. Although, it did make the time drag on." He replied with a smirk. I smiled back, and looked out the window. "Did you have many clients today?" He asked, turning into the parking lot of an unfamiliar building. "Huh? Oh! No, none actually. I was supposed to but, they canceled at the last. So, I took a nap, and lounged around the house with the girls today." I replied, praying he didn't catch my mistake. I needed to pay more attention if I wasn't going to tell him about my work.
We barely made it into the door, and I instantly knew where we were. The music, the scenery, the people. Crap. He wasn't kidding after all. "Edward, I can't dance." I said, stopping at the entrance. He smiled that damned crooked grin, and I knew I was a goner.
"I'll teach you. It's all in the leading anyway." He replied, dragging me along. I fidgeted with my hands while the others finished up whatever they were dancing to, and then it was our turn to join in. Well, here goes nothing I guess. We started off a little faulty, but after he forced me to look at him, we got better. I quickly found his eyes to be entrancing, and had momentarily forgotten that I couldn't dance. After a few different dances, the last being a salsa number, we headed for an indie restaurant just around the corner. The food was excellent, the conversation even better.
I had pleaded for the girls to not stay home tonight, and they agreed on the condition I'd take one date each from them the following week. Sneaky little whores they were. Oh well, I'd have done the same. All's fair in love and war right? I asked him up, and this time he did not decline the offer. We had barely made it up the stairs before his lips attacked mine. He picked me up, and I instinctively wrapped my legs around his waist. Never breaking our kiss, he walked over to my bed and gently laid me down. I sat up almost immediately so he could unzip my dress, at the same time I was taking off his shirt.
I slipped my shoes off, and crawled further up on the bed. Within seconds, his pants were gone and he was on top of me again. He began planting small, hot kisses along my neck and collarbone. He stopped at my neck, and nuzzled his face there. My hands found their own way to his hair, and again I began kneading his scalp gently. He groaned in pleasure and lifted up to stare into my eyes. I gave a slight smile, and pulled him down for a kiss. There was no rush this time, we took our time. Getting to know each others' bodies, showing each other just what we wanted, and how we wanted it. It was much sweeter than the first time, and twice as hot.
Afterwards, he stayed right there with me. Pulling my naked body against his, wrapping his arms possessively around my waist, planting small kisses along my back until we both fell asleep. We awoke a few times that night, calling to each others' needs again and again before finally settling in for the night. I was pleased that he didn't rush off this time, but stayed the entire night, his body entwined with mine. It was peaceful, and I never wanted to be anywhere else but here, with him. And that was terrifying to me.
I woke up alone around eleven the next day. I threw on a tank top and my underwear and went downstairs, pathetically in a grumpy mood. He didn't even say goodbye. I sighed as I made my way into the kitchen for some coffee. I needed it desperately, I also needed the girls. I wonder if they even came home last night, or if they stayed at their dates' places. I was about to call Alice's phone when a pair of arms snaked around my waist. I smiled, and turned around automatically. He greeted me with a kiss to the forehead and a smile of his own.
"Good morning." He whispered into my ear. "Morning" I mumbled, releasing him to get coffee. "Want some?" I asked, glancing over my shoulder in time to see him grin. "You really should clarify that love; after all that little comment is what started this whole thing." He stated. I snorted and turned around completely. "Fine, would you like some coffee?" I asked sarcastically. "Why yes thank you, I would love some." He replied just as sarcastic.
"So, do you have any clients today or do I get you all to myself?" He asked after we'd had two cups of coffee…each. Hey, it was a long night. Ahem…I wonder why. I took another sip, and shook my head. "Nope, I'm free all day." I responded, getting up to rinse my cup. "Excellent. I'm going to head home to shower, and change, and I'll be back in an hour." He stated kissing my forehead again. I saw him out, and then ran upstairs to shower myself. He told me to dress casually, so I chose blue jeans and a t-shirt yet again. I grabbed my favorite shoes and hoodie, and met him outside exactly one hour later. He wouldn't tell me where we were headed, but that was okay. Though I hated to be surprised, he made it bearable. But shh…don't tell anyone, it'll be our little secret. For now.
