Thank you again to my awesome beta Kitty for whipping this chapter into shape. It wasnt easy and the chapter was a mess but we got it done. I hope you all enjoy the chapter and as always let me know what you think.
They lasted until they were in the elevator before they couldn't handle the separation any longer. She flew into his arms and he clasped his around her waist holding her flush against him.
"I love you. I love you. I love you. I love you." She murmured between kisses to his flesh.
"I love you too. Maybe we should wait until we're in our room. This is a public place." He noted trying to pry her insistent lips off his neck.
"I don't want to wait, I want you now." She begged. Read this first without the . then with… instead of the , and see what you prefer.
"But baby we aren't alone right now." He told her as he sent apologetic smiles to the family of four standing on the other extreme side of the elevator.
"Oh. Sorry." Elena said blushing a deep scarlet colour. She buried her head in Damon's chest and refused to look at the aghast mother, the intrigued father, the turned on teenage boy or the girl with her mouth hanging open.
"I didn't mind." The teenager groaned. Damon shook his head and wrapped his arms around her tighter. When the elevator stopped they rushed out leaving Damon and Elena alone again.
"Feeling better now? They're gone." He said rubbing her back calmly.
"I'm sorry I attacked you." She apologized, her voice muffled since her face was pressed into his chest.
"You won't hear me complaining." He smirked, tilting her chin up so he could look into her beautiful brown doe eyes.
"That was so embarrassing." She groaned.
"It's okay. It's over with now. You gave that teenager quite a show though. How about we just keep it G or PG rated until we get to our room." He suggested.
"Sounds good to me. You should have stopped me sooner." She muttered glaring at him.
"I was trying but you assaulted me. Not that I'm complaining." He reminded her.
"I guess." She sighed. When the elevator stopped on their floor they walked out hand in hand to their room. He used the key card to open the door and let her walk in first.
"So, what now?" He asked.
"Like you even have to ask." She scoffed.
"I was actually wondering if you would like to take a bath with me first. I checked earlier, this room has a kick ass bathtub. I want to enjoy it..." He suggested.
"With bubbles?" She asked hopefully.
"Anything you want. I just want you naked in there with me." He said.
"If there are bubbles in the bath then I will consider it. Call when you're ready." She said sauntering into the bedroom of their suite. He chuckled and walked into the bathroom intent on preparing what from here on will be known as her dream bath.
"Elena, come in here darling?" He called sweetly from the bathroom a few minutes later. She could smell jasmine emanating from the room and got up eagerly to walk in there. What she saw was more than she could ever imagine. There were candles placed on the edges of the tub which was filled with water and frothy white bubbles.
"Wow." She said with a lack of useful descriptive words.
"Just wow? Wow is all you can come up with?" He asked raising his eyebrows.
"Wow, it takes my breath away" She reiterated.
"So… are you going to climb into the tub with me?" He raised his eyebrows, daring her to say no to him.
"Is there even a chance you're going to let me say no?" She asked.
"Not a chance. Now hop in." He instructed.
"Oh but Damon... I'm still wearing all my clothes? You wouldn't want me to climb into the tub like this would you?" She asked innocently.
"Is that your way of asking me to undress you?" He asked as he slowly removed his shirt.
"That's up to you. You can take my words however you want to baby." She told him shrugging her shoulders.
"Well then I am going to help you in the removal of clothes Elena." He told her. She loved the way her name rolled off his tongue. He said it with so much promise. She raised her arms over her head signalling that she wanted him to start with her shirt.
He placed his hands on the hem of her shirt and slowly started pushing it up all the while caressing the skin that became visible. She sighed happily when his hands went over her breasts, even the smallest of touches sent shock waves of pleasure through her body. When he freed her of her shirt he tossed it onto the bathroom floor and quickly removed her bra without any fanfare. When it was lying on the floor along with her bra he leaned down and kissed each of her breasts before moving to her pants. Popping the button while pulling them down her toned and tanned legs along with her panties. When she stepped out of them he pressed a kiss to her clit before standing up and silently telling her that she was supposed to undress him.
"Make it quick baby. Don't want the bath getting cold." Smirking as he glanced at his jeans. She smirked and popped the button on the dark denim he wore. She quickly pushed them down blase as always about the appearance of bare skin. He sprung out of the denim prison he was encased in and rose gracefully to his bellybutton. Every time she seen him intimately like that, it always took her breath away.
"Gawking again Elena? When will you finally get used to this work of art I call my body?" He asked smirking.
"Probably never. It truly is a work of art." She agreed. He smiled and climbed into the tub, leaning against the back of it. She climbed in right after him and nestled against his chest. He laced their hands together and pressed a kiss to her new engagement ring.
"So how do you want to tell your parents?" He asked conversationally.
"I'm not sure, do you have any ideas?" She asked hopefully.
"Well we can invite them over Sunday night for dinner and tell them there. I'm sure they'll be more apt to discuss this rationally if they have a full stomach." He suggested.
"I guess that will work." She agreed.
"Do you want to call them when we get out of the tub?" His tone a practised neutral.
"If that's okay with you, if you want me to wait until tomorrow I can." She told him not wanting to ruin their romantic engagement night.
"I would much rather you just get it over with. I don't want to have to think about that tomorrow." He told her.
"Okay. Sounds good to me." She said placing their joined hands on her flat stomach. He moved his other hand around and placed it on top of their joined ones holding her flush against him. She felt his erection digging into her ass and she wriggled a bit mischievously.
"Elena... don't start what you don't intend on finishing." He warned her.
"Who said I didn't intend on finishing?" She asked as she wriggled once again. He groaned and kissed her shoulder as he stilled her hips.
"Not in here. I'm quite happy like this." He told her. But as he said that his hand snuck lower and lower in the water until it reached her core. She hissed when he expertly found her opening in the water and thrust his finger inside.
"Damon... why can you play with me but I can't play with you?" She demanded.
"No reason." He shrugged his shoulders. The way his finger was working her it took no time for her to reach a fever pitch
"I'm close. So close… Don't stop now." She begged. He had no intentions of stopping now, he needed to get her off every bit as much as she wanted it. He continued to stroke her intimately holding her hips still so she couldn't rub against him. Her movements were unconscious as she attempted to gyrate her hips over his. She came with a keening cry moments later and pushed up against his hand trying to take his hand in deeper than it was. When the tremors stopped he pulled his hand away from her and wrapped them around her waist again.
"Oh God. That was so fucking good." She breathed with her head on his chest.
"I'm sure it was. Do you want to get out now? I want to be inside you. But I want to be inside you in a bed." He whispered pressing a kiss to her neck. She nodded her head and he reached to pull the plug out of the tub letting the water drain. She stood up and grabbed a towel from the rod and wrapped it around herself. She stepped out of the tub followed immediately by Damon. He tied a towel loosely around his waist and followed her into the bedroom.
When she neared the bed, he tackled her, easily positioning himself between her legs.
"Damon." She screeched not ready for his sudden assault.
"Yes dear?" He asked as he hovered over her, grinding his hard cock into her between the two layers of towel.
"You know what." She muttered as she tried to stifle as gasp.
"Yes I do know what. Don't worry I intend on giving you what you need." He promised her.
"Well good. You should get on that." She urged raising her hips in a blatant invitation.
"Okay okay... so pushy." He teased. He gave a gentle push and was enveloped completely inside her heat. She groaned when he was fully seated inside her.
"Oh God please move. You have to move." She demanded. He gripped her hips hard enough to make it impossible for her to move on her own.
"Worry not dear fiancée I will get you off." He promised her as he slowly started flexing his hips in and out of her. She bit her lip unwilling to scream out knowing they were in a crowded hotel.
"Please I need to hear you." He almost begged.
"There are other people here. I don't want anyone else to hear me!" She breathed as the delicious sensations riddled through her body.
"No one will hear. I promise. If they do I'll compel them. So hot when I can hear you." He whispered in her ear before nibbling softly on the lobe. She was entirely convinced and when he flexed his hips again she called out his name. He smirked and pounded into her harder than before pleased by her reaction. She moaned and writhed underneath him as he worked her.
"Oh God. Oh my... fucking... God." She moaned as he hit the end of her on every stroke. Under her enthusiastic response he went harder and faster.
"Come Elena. Come for me now." He told her softly, biting into her earlobe, nibbling into the soft flesh. He squeezed her breasts with hands and attacked her lips with his. He took over the kiss and she completely gave up all control knowing it would be perfect. She raked her hands down his back as the first tremors went through her. Sliding his hand between their bodies he rubbed her clit in small circles in an attempt to get her off. His efforts paid off when she silently screamed his name moments later erupting around him. He thrust once more into her before he spilled inside her. He came hard, emptying himself inside her until some of their shared liquids spilled down her thighs onto the bed beneath her.
"Wow." Elena sighed when she stopped trembling moments later.
"Yeah. Wow is right. I wonder how the wedding night will be if this was the engagement night?" Damon asked.
"It will be even more mind-blowing than tonight was. Not to be a mood killer, but about that engagement thing..." She said twining her left hand with his.
"What about it?" He asked pressing a kiss to the hand he held.
"I need to call my mom and dad. I don't want to worry about it tomorrow." Elena decided.
"Well then call them; invite them over for dinner Sunday night." He told her reaching for the phone on his side of the table and handing it to her.
"Do you want to do it maybe?" She asked taking the phone uncertainly.
"Nope. They are your parents. You have to call them and invite them over for dinner." He told her.
"Ugh fine." She said dialling the familiar number.
"Hello?" Grayson answered after three rings.
"Hi dad it's me." She greeted him.
"Oh Lanie, how's Richmond? How's your brother?" He asked.
"Oh Jeremy is fine. Richmond is fine." She said making conversation.
"So what are you doing Lanie? Is there a reason you called?" He asked curiously.
"Oh I'm just lying in bed. I wanted to invite you over for dinner Sunday night." She told him.
"It's pretty early to be in bed Lanie... oh never-mind I don't want to know. You want us over for dinner on Sunday?" He clarified, desperately avoiding the subject of what his only daughter was doing in bed.
"Yeah." She agreed.
"What time?" He asked. Damon held up 6 fingers when she glanced over at him before leaning over and kissing her neck sensually.
"Um... 6." She agreed all the while completely distracted by Damon's lips on her neck
"Okay we'll be there. But we'll be bringing your grandmother with us. You have to tell her you moved in with Damon. Your mother is going to be excited." Grayson said.
"Okay. But I better be going. I have an early morning tomorrow. We're meeting Jer at the hotel restaurant in the morning." She said getting ready to hang up.
Alight Lanie we'll see you Sunday evening. Enjoy the rest of your night." Grayson said.
"Thanks daddy. I'll see you Sunday. I have a very impatient boyfriend who is in need of attention." She said glancing at Damon who was still actively trying to seduce her.
"Well wouldn't um... want to keep him waiting. I'll see you Sunday." He said awkwardly before hanging up the phone.
"That was so not cool." Elena glared at him once she handed the phone back to him.
"I thought it was plenty cool." He defended.
"You were seducing me while I was on the phone with my father." She whined.
"So what? He knows we do this." He defended before kissing her soundly.
"Okay fine you're forgiven." She decided when he broke the kiss.
"Good. Now get ready for round 2." He told her as he rolled on top of her with his already hard erection lying between her thighs.
When Sunday morning came Elena and Damon were sitting at breakfast with Jeremy.
"Are you sure you have to go?" He asked.
"Yeah. We have to come up with something brilliant to cook mom, dad and grandma so I can tell them that Damon and I are getting married." She said dreading the event immensely.
"Well mom and dad are going to be questionable. They might react better than you think they will. But grandma is so judgemental that you'll be hard pressed to convince her of any merits Damon has." He told her.
"I know. She hates Damon. She hates that I moved out of the house. She doesn't know yet that I moved in with Damon. She is going to snap when I show her my ring." Elena worried.
"Does it matter what your grandma says?" Damon asked.
"Absolutely not. If she doesn't accept it then that is her problem." Elena said vehemently.
"Good. What about your mom and dad?" He asked.
"They matter more than grandma but it doesn't matter. I made my choice and I'm not going to change to please any of them!" She stated resolutely and with an air of defiance.
"Then you have nothing to worry about." He said kissing her forehead.
"That's easy for you to say." She murmured. The group ate the rest of their breakfast before Damon laid some money on the table.
"Are you ready to head back?" He asked.
"I guess so." She said sliding out of the bench.
"I'll miss you Lena. Make sure you come back soon." Jeremy said hugging his sister.
"I will." She promised.
"Let me know how mom and dad take the news of your engagement." He told her.
"I will." She promised.
"Are you ready for this?" Damon asked when they got into the car.
"Not even close." She admitted.
"You'll be fine, if you're not I'll always be by your side." He promised.
