Chapter 12: Breaking out is Hard to Do

I don't know how the hell I survived today. Jervis spent an hour dancing with himself, Crane wouldn't take his eyes off me and shadowed me everywhere, and I swear if Edward 'accidentally' fell up against me again I would have punched him. The suit was so hot by the time I got home it was practically stuck to my skin. I stood in a freezing cold shower for almost an hour before I could peel it off of me. The metal had bruised me again and I winced at the mottled black and purple marks on my skin. I slipped into a pair of booty shorts and a pink t-shirt; I wasn't in the mood to mess with a bra, before ravaging the empty kitchen for some coffee.

This new job was really draining me; I had even missed out on tonight's gig. They all went and left without me. I felt a little better after my first three cups of coffee so I sat down on the couch and stretched my legs out onto the coffee table in front of me. I started flipping through the channels before the remote fell from my hand. Oh hell can my life get any worse?

"This is Brenda Starr for Gotham City News. We bring you this special report as there has been a massive explosion at Arkham Asylum. We are just now getting information on escaping patients so stay tuned for more information." The short Brunette woman was speaking so fast and a small picture of a smoking Arkham was showing behind her.

"Please don't tell me the explosion was from the Rogue's gallery. Please." I grabbed the remote and clicked the TV off. I made sure the windows and the door was bolted shut before throwing my coffee mug at the wall. It exploded with a crash and I felt a little better. I was probably one of the only people in the city who were safe, mainly because of my abilities. But I was piss tired and wasn't sure how many cars I could throw before I passed out. I was just about to clean up the broken mug when someone started banging on the door. My first thought was that Randi and the guys had come home early and were freaking out. I walked over and flung the door open ready to squeeze the life out of my sister with a giant hug.

"Oh my I think I may be overdressed." Edward was grinning and leaning against the door frame. He was dressed to kill in a sharp green suit, a bowler hat, expensive looking tie and purple domino mask. He was twirling his cane in his hands and even though he was still bruised to all hell he looked hot.

"How the hell did you get out?" I rubbed my forehead and prepared to slam the door in his face.

"What like breaking out is hard to do?" He shrugged and waltzed in. "I do need a place to hide out for awhile. There seems to be enough room here." He waved his hand around and I slammed the door making him jump.

"Edward I live here with my sister and the other band mates. I will not have you risk their safety by hiding out."

"Oh so that means I get to share your room. I wonder which one it is." He made a bee line for my room and I groaned.

"Edward get out of my room!" I chased him into my room preparing to throw his ass out a window if I needed to. I froze when I saw that he'd already pulled his jacket off and tossed it on my dresser. His hat soon joined it and he was loosening his tie when he sat down on the edge of my bed. His cane was leaning against the side of my bed gleaming softly in the light.

"Oh you have a great bed. It feels very, supportive." He grinned and slid his tie off his neck to set gently next to his coat.

"You can't stay here." I was flashing fang but he didn't even seem to notice.

"Oh but I think I will." He started unbuttoning his shirt and I couldn't take it anymore.

"The hell do you think you're doing?" I was seeing red but he just grinned big again.

"Well it was such a long swim back to the mainland that I thought we could snuggle." He shrugged and started pulling my sheets down as if it were his place.

"Edward I swear to god I'm gonna…" My hands were clenched into fists and I was about to knock his ass out when the front door opened. My eyes went wide and I rushed from my room, closing the door behind me.

"Oh hey D there you are." Max was carrying my sister; she looked drunk as hell and gave me a half hearted wave.

"Hey sis, how are you keeping up with the spinning room?" She was slurring her words and even drooling. I groaned and hoped I could get out of this mess without being slapped in cuffs.

"How was your day?" Bernard waltzed in and stopped when he saw my state of dress. His eyes were wide and he looked like he'd swallowed a bug due to him swallowing several times.

"Oh I'm just peachy." I hissed at him and he instantly stood up straighter and glared at me.

"Oh I'm sorry. Did the fucking ice queen just decide to waltz out?" He stormed into his room and slammed the door.

"Calm down D. Bernard just got shot down by a few chicks, his pride is wounded." Max had put my sister to bed and was sitting on the couch.

"You're gonna sleep out here tonight?" I was looking at him then to the door. I wanted to get Edward the hell out of my room without dragging my family into it.

"Yea Randi is so drunk that she's gonna be snoring like a bear. I really don't wanna deal with that." He relaxed on the couch and started flipping through the channels.

"Oh goodie." I rubbed my head and walked back into my room. I wanted to sleep for a week.

"You certainly have some interesting family dynamics going on." Edward was in my bed with the covers pulled up to his mid chest. He was lying on my pillows with both of his hands behind his head.

"You are so not staying." I hissed at him and walked over to pull him out of the bed but froze. There were a pair of black silk boxers lying on the floor and my eyes snapped up to him. "Oh my god are you naked?"

"Is that going to be a problem?" He was so smug that I wanted to slap that grin right off his face.

"Well yea. Why the hell are you naked in my bed?" I rushed over to close my blinds; I really didn't want company tonight especially if they found the Riddler naked in my bed. Not even I could explain that one off.

"You look tired care to join me?" He patted the bed next to him.

"You're frigging naked! I'm not getting into the same bed as you." I hoped that no one was listening in. I would throw myself screaming from the window if anyone walked in right then.

"I could always just kill your family if you'd prefer that." The grin was off his face and he was patting the bed next to him again.

"You wouldn't dare." I flashed fang again and he just chuckled.

"Oh I would do anything for you my sweet. Now come to bed you look so tired." His eyes were sparking with something that made me fear for my family. Even if he was naked I could probably break him like a twig. He wasn't stupid enough to try anything was he?

"Fine but don't touch me." I huffed and crawled into bed, balancing on the far edge to stay as far away from him as I could.

"Oh well that's no fun." He grabbed my arm and pulled me against him. He was stronger then he looked as he pulled my back to his chest. I tensed up as his bare skin rubbed against the back of my shirt. His arm draped over my side and his hand snuck up under my shirt to stroke my stomach. "Oh that's so much better."

"Remove your hand or I'll do it for you." My eyes were wide, this really couldn't be happening. I needed to start thrashing around and maybe biting.

"Oh calm down my little demoness." He muttered against my ear, his lips grazing it softly.

"I'm not yours Edward." I grabbed his hand to pull it away and he just interlaced his fingers with mine.

"Oh you will be soon enough. Now keep your voice down, we don't want anyone to come rushing in and see this pretty little picture do we?" His voice was low and husky and I licked my fangs out of habit.

"If you hurt them I'll kill you." My threat sounded stronger in my head. It came out a squeak as he started rubbing his hand along my stomach.

"Oh I have heard that one before little D." He kissed my jaw making me freeze. "Go to sleep before I change my mind and make them all disappear."

"Did you really have to be naked?" I bit my tongue. If I started fighting people would get hurt. And if they found out that the Riddler was here then my family would be in danger. I would get sent to Arkham and they would be defenseless.

"Well I would have preferred you to be in the same state of dress but I'll let that slide for now." He pressed against me more and continued to stroke my stomach softly.

"Could you at least stop rubbing me? It's really not as relaxing as you think it is." Maybe I could smother him with a pillow?

"Oh hush D. You're ruining my dreaming." His voice was getting slurred as he was drifting to sleep.

"What dream would that be Edward?"

"Two little riddles growing larger each day. With red hair and eyes like their parents." He was murmuring now.

"What?" I looked down at my flat stomach with my cheeks burning.

"Let daddy dream baby." He sighed and was asleep with his hand still softly stroking me. My mind was running a million miles an hour. This man cared only for himself and he was talking about having kids with me. It was bad enough he was the first man to ever sleep in my bed, he must have had balls of steel to even consider it. I wanted to stay awake until it was safe to sneak his sleeping ass out but the rubbing on my stomach was making me drowsy. My muscles hurt from being in the metal framing for so long and maybe I could just get off with an hour or so nap. I closed my eyes and tried not to sleep too deeply.

I woke up as a wave of pleasure rolled through my loins. My eyes snapped open and my breath caught in my throat. I could hear Edward's slow and steady breathing behind me. My hand was alone on my stomach; his had drifted lower during the night and was now rubbing me in a very sensitive area. His fingers were slowly spreading me apart and just stroking the outer flesh of me. I could feel how wet I was against his fingers and he must have been doing this for awhile. He showed no signs of being awake and his fingers were just moving slowly and winding me up. As carefully as I could I grabbed his hand and started leading it away from my area. Once it was safely back on my stomach I took a calming breath and tried to slow my racing heart.

His hand drifted down again and was back at it in moments. I grabbed his hand again and he moaned in his sleep. He ground something hard against my butt and my eyes about popped out of my head. I had to make him stop, I moved just enough so I could see his face. I raised my hand to slap him when his fingers slipped inside me. My back arched and I gasped making his eyes snap open. He froze staring into my shock filled eyes. His gaze drifted lower and I felt him wiggle his fingers before snapping his head back up to meet my eyes.

"This isn't what it looks like." The words left his mouth before his mind had seemed to catch up to the situation.

"Well it damn well feels like its something." I was blushing and I grabbed his hand to pull it from my underwear again.

"You seemed to be enjoying it though." He wiggled his fingers again and my cheeks burned.

"Well I was asleep for most of it." Just as soon as I pulled his hand free he rolled on top of me and put his face inches from mine.

"You're not asleep now though." His eyes seemed to be searching mine for something. I moved to push him off but his hand started sliding back against me.

"Stop it Edward." I grabbed his hand again and he lowered his lips until they were almost touching mine.

"Do you really want me to stop?" His lips crashed against mine and I tried to ignore the feelings that my body were shouting at me. I grabbed his hair to pull him away but he thought it was an invitation to shove his tongue in my mouth. He tasted sweet and his tongue stroked against mine in a strange feeling. His tongue stroked my teeth making a shiver run down my spine. He fisted a hand into my hair and pulled hard exposing my neck to him. His mouth moved from mine to the soft flesh exposed and started kissing and biting softly. His fingers were back to work stroking me until I saw stars behind my eyes.

Fuck it I'm getting laid. I groaned and pulled him back up to a kiss. I really hoped that he knew what he was getting into. His fingers were stroking and twisting me until my legs were shaking. He pulled his hand away and I heard a ripping noise. He'd just torn my t-shirt right off and his mouth and hands were on my exposed chest in a heart beat. I felt teeth and tongue as he nipped and suckled until I felt bruised. I dug my fingers into his hair and pulled him closer.

His hands disappeared from my chest and grabbed my booty shorts sliding them off me before I could blink. His mouth started slipping lower and lower, kissing and nipping my skin hard enough to leave bruises. I nearly jumped off the bed when I felt his tongue lapping at me. I was being wound tighter and tighter but he stopped just before I could fall over the edge. He crawled up my body with kisses and nips before claiming my mouth again. I could taste myself on his tongue as he slid between my thighs. He grabbed my legs and lifted my hips as he slid himself against me once then twice. I felt my nails break the skin on his shoulders and he started sinking inside me.

"Don't worry a moment of pain then I'll show you the world." He muttered against my throat before claiming my lips in a scalding kiss. He pushed deeper into me making me tense up as I felt a stab of pain. He stopped but continued to kiss me, fighting my tongue with his until I felt the pain subside. Once I'd relaxed he began sliding in and out deeper and deeper into me. I wrapped my legs around his waist as he quickened his pace, my body shaking along with his thrusts. He groaned as I grabbed onto his shoulders and I loosened my grip. He claimed my body with his thrusts and kisses and I marked his flesh with my lips. He hit a spot in me that made my body lock up, my teeth bit into the flesh of his chest as my vision spun.

"Gods D!" Edward hissed before his body started spasming on top of mine. I felt a hot rush of liquid inside me before he collapsed panting as if he were boneless atop of me. I pried my teeth from his flesh as he pulled me into a kiss. I was panting and sweating as if I'd spent all night free running around the city. He was gasping for air and I dropped my legs from his waist.

"Is it always like that Edward?" I was breathless. I licked his blood from my teeth as he struggled to lift his body off of mine.

"If it is D I'll die a happy man, broken but happy." I helped him slide off of me and I felt cold when he slid free of my body. He pulled me to his chest and I could hear his heart thrumming like a hummingbird.

"You're not going to die on me are you?" I looked up at him and his eyes were glazed over.

"Not tonight my little demoness." He was panting and wiped some sweat from his brow. "But I have made up my mind one something."

"What's that Edward?" I nuzzled against his chest glad that the bite I gave him had stopped bleeding.

"I need to get you some better locks for your door." It took a moment for his words to sink in but when they did I looked over at my door which was wide open. Max was holding Bernard back; he looked like he was going to go for blood.

"Give me one reason why I shouldn't call the cops and have your ass dragged back to Arkham." Bernard all but growled.

"If you so much as pick up a phone I'll tie you up and hang you all off the side of a building." I wasn't even sure if I could get out of the bed at that point.

"I'll keep him in line D but you really need to get yourself to a pharmacy and get yourself some pills." Max pulled Bernard back and put him into a headlock.

"What pills?" I wiped some damp hair from my eyes.

"Some morning after pills you ditz. You don't wanna get knocked up do you?" Max let the now unconscious Bernard drop to the ground.

"Oh I wouldn't mind that." Edward stroked my hair with a big goofy grin on his face.

"First chance I get I'll go get some pills." I was exhausted and ready to sleep for a week.

"Oh I'll just have to keep you extra busy then won't I?" Edward's hand trailed down to cup my chest and give it a gentle squeeze.

"Congratulations on getting laid D." Max shot me a cocky grin and shut the door behind him and I groaned burying my face into Edward's chest.

"Don't worry my little demoness those pills can be taken up to three days after." He cupped my chin in his hand and lifted my eyes to meet his. "Lets see how long it takes you to pry yourself out of this bed to get them."

"As soon as I can move I'll go get them."

"Oh I think I can persuade you otherwise." He chuckled and stroked my chin with his thumb.

"I doubt it Edward." I licked my fangs as he shifted until he was atop of me again.

"Well D as you know I can be very persuasive." He had his classic grin stamped across his face.

"Well I can lift a car over my head, beat that." His lips crashed against mine again and I forgot what day it was.
