Chapter Forty Four: Memories by Candlelight

Suite 625- The Presidential Suite: 9:55PM

The room was filled with candles and it made the room seem golden. Tamera looked around the room. The white carpets were covered with pink and red roses. "Teddy, this is too much." Teddy wrapped his arms around Tam from behind and kissed her shoulder.

"I'm glad you liked it and now for the grand finale." Teddy took Tam by the hand and led her into deeper into the living room area. Tam felt her nervousness boiling in her lower stomach. They sat down on the couch and Teddy grabbed a black remote from the coffee table. Tamera thought that Teddy was about to cut on some slow music she had to stop him she wasn't ready for were this was heading. She quickly covered his hand with hers.

"Teddy wait," she ordered. He looked at her confused and she knew she was going to have to explain her actions. "I'm not ready for this."

"Ready for what?" Teddy was concerned at first and then he saw the nervous look on her face and he immediately knew what was going on. He decided to have a little fun with her. "Oh, baby I think you're so ready and you just don't know it." He said as he slowly ran his hand his hand up her thighs and leaned in to kiss her.

"TEDDY … listen to me please. Part of me wants to I'm just … I'm just so conflicted." She was talking really fast and Teddy was kissing on her neck. "I can't, I can't!" As Tamera started to freak out Teddy bursts into laughter. He pulled away from her and kissed her on the forehead.

"You're so cute sometimes Tam. Just because we're in a hotel room doesn't mean that I plan to seduce you. You've told me too many times that you're not ready and I've made it my personal vow to respect your wishes. I can't lie I wish you were ready, and that's okay … for now. However I have something different in mind for tonight. Do you want me to show you?" Tamera simply nodded she was a little pissed at Teddy, but she was more pissed with herself. She realized the even though she was nervous and saying that she couldn't her body was betraying her. She sat there with moist panties and was heated all over. She shifted away from Teddy a little. He didn't notice that much because he was getting his surprise set up. He pressed a button on the remote and the television rose from the floor board. He picked up an envelope on the coffee table that held a DVD inside.

He started it and sat back down beside her. It was a video of one of their high school dances. They could here voice telling Teddy how handsome he was. He rolled his eyes at the camera as they entered the school.

"I remember this; it was out tenth grade spring dance. You're mom and dad chaperoned. Why are you showing me this?" Tamera looked at him confused.

"Just wait for Tam," he wrapped his arm around her. They watched young Teddy on the screen as he walked into the gym he looked back and forth like he was looking for something. Ted walked away from his parents but the camera was still on him.

"What is he looking for?" They heard Christian's voice in the background.

"Probably some of his friends or something," Ana said as she zoomed in the camera, they watched as Teddy made his way to Tamera who was standing by the bleachers alone. Her hair was in long box braid extensions and she had them wrapped in a bun. She wore a sleeveless purple dress and looked nervous as hell. Teddy was quick to wrap her in a small side hug and start talking.

"I remember this now! This was the first stupid dance you got me to go to. I hated you for this you know. I'd never felt so out of place."

"Trust me I know. You spent that whole year telling me how much you hated me," Ted chuckled as he continued to watch the screen. After a little while the part that he wanted Tam to see came up. The two of them were dancing to some fast song and all of a sudden the music slowed. All the people around them coupled up or left the dance floor. Young Tamera looked as if she were about to leave when Teddy placed his hands at her waist. They started to dance and they both looked awkward and uncomfortable. Teddy gave his award winning smile and Tam smiled back. They began to talk about something and their movements became more instinctive and natural.

"This was our first slow dance," Teddy whispered to Tam as she watched the screen. "It was the first time that I saw you and saw you as beautiful and sexy." A nervous chill went down Tamera spine.

"You thought I was sexy?" Tamera said in disbelief. She thought she was fat in the tenth grade, she'd gained fifteen pounds.

"Yeah, plus your boobs were really huge. Not that they're small now. What are you like a C cup?" Teddy reached over to one of her boobs and she slapped his hand away.

"They're Ds," she mumbled and then groaned. "And they're a serious hassle. Finding a bathing suit is always a real chore." The next part of the video was the two of them dancing at Teddy's 21st birthday party.

"Watch this; you see this moment right here?" Tam nodded.

"This is the moment when I think I knew," he said seriously and Tamera was confused.

"Knew what?" Teddy looked at her and this time he was uncomfortable. He had said too much, he wasn't ready to admit what almost slipped out of his mouth.

"It's when I knew that you meant more to me Tam, so much more. I thought that you might enjoy knowing the moment that I became wrapped around you little finger." Tam felt something odd raise within her. She cupped Teddy's face in her hands and kissed him passionately.

"Oh Teddy, that's the most romantic thing." Tam couldn't stop kissing Ted long enough to finish her sentences. She'd climbed into his lap and began to unbutton his shirt.

"Whoa!" He broke away from Tam long enough to hold her at arm's length. "I love this, but I want you know I didn't say all those things to get you worked up. I really wanted to do something nice for you." Tam gave her own little seductive smile.

"I know Teddy, and right now I'm all about doing something nice for you IF you get my meaning. How about we head to the bedroom Grey?" Tamera hopped off him and offered him her hand.

"Yes, ma'am!" The two ran playfully into the next room ready to fully take advantage of their elegant room.

Author's Note: I know I've been gone for a long time. I'm trying to implement a schedule to work on my stories. Last week was crazy so I didn't get to do it. Hopefully next week will be better. If you are interested and seeing what the schedule looks like please look at the posts on my blog! I don't know how many of you are reading my Twilight stories but if you are I'm sorry that I've neglected them. It takes a little longer for those to get posted because those stories have a beta and lately she's been pretty busy. Also, I'm been working so diligently on this story … anyways I'm rambling. Please read, review, and no flames.
