Chapter 13

Tom's POV:

I woke up late the next morning with my head pounding. The curtains had been closed so the room would be dark. I turned over to see a glass of water and some pain killers. I smiled and searched for E in the sheets, but she wasn't there. It must've been later than I thought. I took the pain killers and laid in bed until they kicked in. I felt a little dirty so I took a shower which made me feel even better. By the time I went downstairs to find E, I was feeling pretty good.

On the way down a delightful smell filled the air paired with music that I couldn't quite make out yet. I headed towards the kitchen to hear E singing along with Get Jiggy With It by Will Smith. I made sure to be quiet as I peaked around the door frame. E was cooking a proper breakfast with eggs, bacon, toast, and pancakes. Man those pancakes looked amazing, but not as good as E did. She was still just wearing her Star Wars teeshirt which barely covered her shapely backside, but she had thrown on some thigh high socks. I had never seen a woman wear them before, but she made them look cute and sexy at the same time.

I chuckled to myself as she rapped along and didn't skip a beat. She twirled around to take a drink of her coffee and to put some hot eggs on our plates. She twirled back around to take care of the bacon and started to shake her hips with the beat. She looked so good. I instantly regretted being too drunk to have her last night. I tried to remember if she was mad about it, but I remembered something else. Oh god, had I said it? I hope I didn't. Not that I didn't want to tell her, but I wanted it to be more than a drunken confession. She deserved so much better than that.

"Are you going to stare at my ass all day or are you going to join me?" She asked with a hint of amusement in her voice.

"I just was enjoying the show." I said entering the kitchen.

She laughed. "I bet you were."

I hugged her from behind and nuzzled my face in her hair. She smelled so good and her hair was so soft. "Thank you for the pain killers and making breakfast. You didn't have to."

"Nonsense. You're hungover and you need a proper breakfast." She gave me a peck on my cheek. "How's you head?"

"Not too bad. I probably be completely fine once I eat something." I said eyeing the food and massaging her hips.

"Mmm..." E moaned happily. I hooked my thumbs on the band of her boy shorts and nipped at her neck.

"Tommm..."

"Yes dear?" I continued kissing her.

"The pancakes will get cold."

"They'll be alright."

"But they are warm and fluffy with fresh blueberries." She said in a sing song voice.

"Mmm, tempting." They did smell amazing and I was really hungry, but she looked so good this morning. She lifted up a plate with a small stack of pancakes, crispy bacon, and eggs to my face. My stomach growled loudly.

"Eat baby." She giggled as she handed me the plate.

I made my way to the breakfast bar and dug in. This was the best breakfast I ever had. The pancakes were impossibly perfect and so was everything else. I forgot to get my coffee as I scarfed down my food. Right when I moved to get up E placed down a mug in front of me and gave me a wink.

"You are wonderful you know that right?" I said before taking a sip. It was perfect. She was perfect. She giggled and her cheeks turned petal pink as she sat down next to me.

"So how long have you been up?" I asked feeling a bit guilty that I slept in.

"Only a few hours." She replied taking a bite of her pancakes.

I frowned. "I'm so sorry. I should've gotten up earlier." I felt simply awful.

"Oh hunny..." She leaned over and gave me a kiss. "...it's totally fine. You needed your sleep. Besides it gave me a chance to grab a shower, do some yoga and surprise you with breakfast."

"Are you sure?"

"Positive." She affirmed.

"So I didn't know you did yoga."

"Yeah, I've been doing it for about 8 years now."

"Oh wow. What got you into it?" I asked before taking a bite of my eggs. Oh man they were good.

"My physical therapist at the time suggested it." She said nonchalantly.

"Physical therapist?" I asked hoping that I wasn't prying.

"Oh, I got into a pretty bad car wreck around that time and I was in therapy for a while."

"Oh my goodness. What happened?" I was suddenly very concerned. She was obviously okay, but it still worried me.

"Just some idiot ran a red light and t-boned me going 50."

"Oh my..."

"Yeah it was scary. I was pretty fucked up too. Cuts and bruises everywhere. My left shoulder was dislocated and my wrist was broken, but my back got the worst of it for some reason."

"Darling, that's terrible." I said as I caressed her arm.

"Eh, it sounds worse than it was. I just have a bad back now and yoga helps." She smiled reassuringly.

I hated thinking about her being so injured. I hoped I would never ever have to see her like that.

After breakfast I was feeling good as new so I insisted to E that I clean up since she did all the cooking. None of the women I had dated in the past took care of me when I had a hangover. They would just stay out of my way as I struggled through the day, so it was a nice change. I wasn't going to make a regular occurrence, but it was nice to know that E would do such nice things for me. After agreeing that we were both still tired from yesterday, we decided to stay in and spend the day together.

"What would like to watch?" I asked as E curled up on the couch.

E started making Velociraptor calls. The top half of my body leaned backwards as I laughed. She was too adorable. I put in Jurassic Park and creeped over to her doing my best Velociraptor walk and growls.

E shrieked and hid herself under a blanket. "You'll never find me now! I'm invisible!"

"Clever girl!" I yelled before hopping on top of her and tickling her sides.

"No!" She giggled as she squirmed underneath me. I managed to work the blanket off of her so I could take her in my arms properly. We snuggled up together and proceeded to watch every single movie in the Jurassic Park series. During the credits of the last movie E and I decided we were both rather hungry and ordered some chinese to be delivered. As we were debating on what movie to watch next I noticed E looking me up and down and biting her lip. We had been exchanging flirtatious kisses and grabs throughout the day and the sexual tension built up fast. As I made eye contact with her big gray eyes she gave me a innocent smile.

"Sorry for staring, but you got a great ass!"

I couldn't believe it. She had just made a Heat reference. Just when I think I couldn't adore her more.

"We should watch that next." She suggested bouncing her legs excitedly.

"Oh my god, you are perfect." I said rushing over to her. I pulled up close and kissed her deeply. Before I knew it she was on my lap straddling me and kissing me hungrily. Her body felt so good against mine. It amazed me how every inch of her was always so warm. I slowly ran my hands up her thighs and around to her ass, cupping her cheeks and bringing her closer to me. I gave her bum a firm squeeze. She let out a breathy moan and ran her hands up and down my arms before resting them on my shoulders. She continued to kiss me passionately causing the bulge in my pants to grow. Once she felt it she lightly bucked her hips up against me.

"Oh fuck." I groaned gripping her tighter. She chuckled breathlessly, obviously pleased with herself. Two could play that game. I reached into her underwear and started playing with her slick folds from behind. I used my other hand to grip her tight, locking her into place. She wasn't going anywhere until I was done.

"Oh god, Tom." She moaned as she kicked her head back and bucked up hips towards me. "Your fingers feel amazing."

"You feel quite amazing yourself love." I said teasing her entrance with my fingers. Her reaction to me was turning me on so much. I loved making her feel this good. I couldn't wait to make her feel even better. I moved my hand to the front of her and slipped two fingers inside her. The look on her face and the noise that came out of her gorgeous mouth was almost enough to send me over the edge. She started pawing at my pants when the doorbell rang.

"Fuck! The chinese!" We both groaned put our heads down.

"You're going to have to answer it love." I panted.

"Why?" She looked down and saw that I was practically bursting out of my sweatpants. "Oh I see." Her eyes got wide and she licked her lips, not looking away. The doorbell rang again. "Right! Chinese!" She got up and ran to the front door. I couldn't help but chuckle at her reaction.

She brought back the bags of chinese and put them down on the coffee table.

"This better be some mind blowingly amazing chinese if it's going to make up for interrupting us."

"I don't know if anything could be that good darling." I said winking at her.

She gave me a sultry grin and went over to my DVD collection. She put a movie in and came back over to sit down next to me. I had been getting out all of our food and pouring out some soy sauce.

"What did you put in?" I asked.

"Heat. We're going to have a quote along." She stated before taking a bite of her lo mein.

"Quote along you say?" I have never done one.

"Yes. We're going to quote as many lines from this movie as possible with our best impressions."

This could definitely be fun. "I'm game."

"Good." She said and gave me a kiss on my cheek.

I looked up and smiled at her. She looked so at home here. I could get used to this. We had a great time watching the movie. It's my favorite and it made me joyful beyond expression that she could quote every line from it. Neither of us held back with our impressions, we didn't care if they were good or not. This was the most fun I had staying at home doing 'nothing' all day. Everything was so much better when she was with me. No, everything was perfect when she was with me.

I have to tell her.

E's POV:

I think Tom was enjoying the quote along. His impressions were way better than mine. We laughed the whole time and when the 'great ass' line came up we looked at each other and did the line complete with the crazy eyes and suggestive hand gestures. It was great. I loved being here with him. He made everything perfect and fun. Once the movie was over Tom seemed to be deep in thought about something. I pretended not to notice at first, but after 5 minutes of him being spaced out I asked him what was up.

"Nothing. I just..." He paused and looked around the room. "...go hang out in my office and come back in like 10 minutes."

I looked at him with question and confusion, but did what I was asked. I closed the door to his office and waited. I heard Tom running upstairs then back downstairs and scrabbling around in the living room. What the hell was he doing? I thought I heard him fall and let out a grunt. I started to open the door to check on him.

"Don't come out! I'm alright!" He yelled as if he knew what I was about to do.

"Are you sure?" I called out from the tiny crack in the door.

"Yes! Just stay there for another 5 minutes!"

They were the longest minutes ever. I tried sitting down in his comfy office chair, but I was too nervous. Or maybe I was excited. It was hard to tell I was so jittery. I checked myself out in the mirror and fluffed up my hair a little. I didn't look to shabby for someone hanging around the house all day. Must've been some sort of divine intervention. I paced around the room, staring at the clock the whole time. I became somewhat concerned when everything went silent. Hopefully didn't fall...again. I finally heard some music start to play.

"You can come out now E!" Tom called from the other room.

Thank god, the suspense was killing me. I opened the door to find that all the lights were either off or dimmed. I slowly made my way to the living room where I found Tom holding two glasses of wine and soft music playing. I noticed he had put up the chinese and moved the coffee table to the side leaving the center of the room open. I smiled and walked over to him.

"What are you up to Hiddles?" I asked as he handed me my wine.

"Oh nothing really." He said wearing his 'I'm up to something' smile.

"How come I don't believe you?" I asked taking a sip of my wine. Wow, this was some expensive stuff.

Tom must've seen me eyeing my glass. "It's vintage. I save it for special occasions."

"Oh I see. And what makes this a special occasion?" I asked. My nervousness had become excitement.

"I have some things to share with you and I wanted it to be romantic." He gave me a soft kiss. "But first..." He took my glass away from me. "...you're going to dance with me."

"Oh am I?" I giggled.

"Yes." He stated and offered me his hand.

"Well I can do a mean Waltz." I took his hand.

"You can Waltz?" He seemed genuinely surprised.

"My mom is a dancer. I can Waltz, Foxtrot, Tango, and a few others." I didn't tell people that too often. I always felt like I was bragging.

"You are always surprising me..." he pulled me into the Waltz position. "...I love it."

Come Away with Me by Norah Jones started to play. We slowly Waltzed around the living room sometimes bumping into furniture and laughing. Tom was a beautiful dancer, he made a perfect partner. He spun me around and pulled me close. Instead of resuming our Waltz, he just held me close as we swayed from side to side. My heart was so full with my adoration for him. I wanted so desperately to tell him how much he meant to me. How much I treasured him. How much I loved him.

The Nearness of You by Norah Jones started to play. I looked up to see him gazing at me. We both chuckled and held each others gaze. I couldn't contain myself anymore. I sang softly with the song, but I wasn't just singing along. I meant every word I sang to him. Tom smiled and tears filled his eyes.

"Darling, what's wrong?" I asked and gently caressed his cheek.

"Nothing's wrong. Everything is perfect." He took my hands in his and gave me a deep and tender kiss. It made my breath catch and my heart skip a beat.

"E?"

"Yes Tom?"

Tom took a deep breath and gazed into my eyes. "E, you are the most incredible woman I have ever met. You're so insanely talented, smart, and not to mention jaw droppingly beautiful, but you are ever so humble and kind. You're generous with you time and your affections and never ask for anything in return. You know who you are and you don't give a damn what other people think."

That statement made me do three things: Cry happy tears, blush all over, and become weak in the knees.

"Oh Tom." I gave him a loving kiss. "You are so amazing. You are just such a pure and good person all the way to your core. I don't think there is a single mean or ill willed bone in your body. You're unbelievably intelligent and thoughtful and just devilishly handsome."

Tom chuckled and blushed.

"Everything has been better since I met you." I confessed.

"I feel the same way darling."

At that moment we were both so overwhelmed with emotions we let a few happy tears fall as kissed passionately. It was the most amazing kiss I ever had. As he massaged my lips with his and held me tightly, he made me feel like the most beautiful and loved woman in the universe. I pulled him close and poured everything I felt for him into my lips. I took down every wall I had ever put up and let him in completely. I bore my soul to him with this kiss.

Tom and I lowered ourselves to our knees, almost collapsing. We both gasped for air as we clung to one another. He cupped my head in his hands and put his forehead to mine.

"E?"

"Yes Tom?"

"I'm in love with you."

"I'm in love with you too."

We both smiled and giggled uncontrollably. We were consumed with love and happiness. Tom swooped me up into his arms and carried me up the stairs. He nudged the door open with his foot revealing the bedroom lit up with candles.

"Oh my god, Tom." I gasped.

"I wanted tonight to be special. You deserve everything to be perfect." He set me down gently on the bed and got on top of me. We both couldn't stop smiling and chuckling while we kissed. He kissed down my jaw and to my neck. Then to my neck to my collarbone. His kisses were so soft and gentle they gave me goosebumps. His hands went down to my hips then to my thighs. He sat up to take off my socks. He rubbed my legs after removing them, like a light massage. He then worked off my shirt and covered my torso in butterfly kisses. He used his big strong hands to massage one of my breasts while sucking on the other. Every move he made was incredibly erotic, but remained pure and loving with his intentions. He continued to work off our clothes until we were both totally nude.

Tom's POV:

She looked so amazing in the candlelight. It made her pale skin look even softer than it was and every part of her glowed.

"You're so beautiful." I told her before lowering myself to be closer to her. She blushed all over and smiled. I wanted to memorize her body with my lips. I kissed every limb, every curve, every scar. I found nothing that could be called a imperfection. Everything I discovered about her body made her even more gorgeous to me. I ached for her. I wanted to connect with her in every possible way. I reached in between her legs and gently slid my fingers into her. She moaned against my lips and grabbed at my hair. She ran her hands up and down my arms, gripped my shoulders and kissed me hard. I used my thumb on her swollen nub causing her to gasp as she bucked her hips against mine. I loved the idea of teasing her, but not tonight. I wasn't going to hold anything back from her.

"I need you." I whispered in her ear before nibbling at her neck.

"Take me. I'm all yours." She moaned.

I knelt in front of her and positioned myself at her entrance. I grazed her with my tip and I felt her shudder. I pushed into her painfully slow, but I loved feeling every inch of her wrapping around me. Her hot walls felt magnificent on my bare skin.

I slowly filled up to the brim, she was the perfect fit for me.

"Oh Tom..." She sighed and kissed me passionately.

I stayed still for a moment and held her close. "I love you."

"I love you." She cooed.

I started to rock against her, holding her close the entire time. She covered my lips and neck with tender yet heated kisses. I propped myself up with my arms on either side of her and she began to rock with me. Her actions created more friction between us making her feel even better. I moved a little bit harder and faster, causing both of us to moan loudly. The noises she emitted made me even harder. She wrapped her legs around my hips and tilted up towards me. The new angle was sensational. I was able to go even deeper into her so I was fully inside her. I slipped my hand underneath her and gripped her lower back. I traced her back dimples with my fingertips before reaching down and grabbing her perfect backside.

"Oh god, Tom..." She yelped before propping herself up so she could kiss me.

I tightened my grip on her and moved her to match my thrusts exactly. She was so slick and tight around me, I never wanted that feeling to end. Our sounds of love and passion echoed throughout the house creating a symphony for our bodies dance to. I could feel her start to tighten around me.

"You're so good Tom...I'm so close." She mewled.

"You're amazing." I panted. "Come here." Still keeping one arm wrapped around her, I lowered myself and anchored my elbow next to her shoulder. I crashed my lips into hers. Soon our tongues intertwined as we both started the climb. She grabbed my arm with one hand and grabbed the nape of my neck with the other. Her fingers tangled in my curls and gave a slight pull.

"Oh god..." I moaned into her mouth.

"I love you so much Tom." She gasped as her body began to quake and her she tightened and pulsated around me. "Ohhh god!"

"Darling I-" I felt myself reach the peak of pleasure before I spilled into her until there was nothing left and my whole body turned to jelly. My hot, sweaty, and euphoric body collapsed beside her. I felt her nuzzled up to me and once I got my strength back I grabbed her and kissed her.

"I love you so much." I cooed as I moved a lock a hair out of her face.

"I love you too." She sighed sweetly.

"That was absolutely perfect."

"Yes it was." She wrapped her arm around me and rubbed my side. And both of us with our legs tangled together and impossibly happy, we drifted off into a peaceful sleep.
