Thank you for the reviews. Ok, so this is the longest chapter so far. I just couldn't figure out where to split it. Believe me, I wanted to split it but when I started writing this chapter I just couldn't stop. There is a major lemon in this story so be prepared. I think it's the one we've all been looking forward to. When I started writing this story I had planned to have B&E's relationship progress much slower but every time I start a new chapter it wants to come faster and faster. Anyways, enjoy. I know I did. Enjoy!

Today's the day for Eliza's memorial service. I checked the weather station again and it said the rain should hold off until an hour after the service. The weather is calling for severe storms to start later this evening. So, I'm hoping things won't run over. I'm already worried about today I don't need to worry about the storm, which I know I am. Thunderstorms are one of my worst fears.
Michael talked to Edward as soon as we got up the next morning after we had our talk. He decided to stay which meant I started avoiding him. I can't get Edward out of my head. It's hard avoiding him since he is living with us.
Edward had a meeting with an insurance agent yesterday. It was determined that the fire was accidental. Somehow a candle fell over in the bathroom where Eliza was taking a bath. Edward was in his office at the time but when the fire alarms went off he ran upstairs and grabbed Eliza who had fallen asleep in the tub. That explains his burns. Unfortunately, the smoke inhalation was what claimed her life.
Anyways he won't have any problems with the insurance. The house was deemed a total loss and same with the two vehicles that were in the attached garage. So, Edward went out and bought himself a new Volvo SUV. I asked why he didn't buy a car and he replied that he prefers the roominess of the SUV. The house will take a little longer. He wants to rebuild instead of buying a new house so that means Edward will be staying with us for months instead of weeks.
I've been able to avoid Edward at all times except during meals which is where I learned about his plans. However, today I won't be able to avoid him. I'll be right up front with him and Michael. I'm so nervous I can't think straight. It doesn't help every time I enter the same room as him he just gives me this look that says he wants me. Maybe I'm imagining it or maybe he does want me. I don't know what to do. How will I avoid him for months?
I began getting ready for the memorial. I let my long hair stay in natural waves down my back and put on minimal makeup. I put the dress on that Alice insisted on and the deathtraps she called shoes too. The dress cut off at a respectable length right at the knee. It was sleeveless and it was actually comfortable for a dress.
***6 hours later***
The service was beautiful. Alice was correct, the rain held off. Maybe, I should ask her for the lottery numbers. During the service Edward finally broke down. He cried his eyes out on my shoulder and held onto me for life. Michael cried too, we all cried. There were so many friends that spoke during the service. Now we are back at our house. Some of the friends followed us home because they felt the need to bring food. Everyone was reminiscing about their dear friend.
I've been enjoying our time together but the storm is starting to pick up outside so I tell everyone I'm going to head upstairs for the night. After entering our bedroom, I walked over to both windows and closed the blinds and curtains trying to block out the light. Even with everything closed as tightly as possible the occasional lightening streak would light up our room. I grabbed a blanket off our bed and walked to the far corner. I curled up into a ball on the chaise and tried to cover myself completely. As the storm intensified I felt my heartbeat increase. I could feel the sweat pulling all over my body.
At one point the lights began flickering and I let out a shriek in fear. I heard someone knock on our bedroom door but with fear gripping me I couldn't speak. I hoped Michael would come upstairs and comfort me, knowing of my fear. Eventually, whomever was at the door turned the knob and let themselves into the room. I felt someone wrap themselves around me. I continued shaking and holding my eyes shut as tight as possible as they began humming and rocking me back and forth slowly.
Very slowly I began to calm down. I opened my eyes and looked up into the eyes of my rescuer only to discover it was Edward who held me during my episode of fear. He shifted us so I was sitting across his lap. When the next lightning strike lit up the room I rested my head on his shoulder and turned so his neck was blocking my view. He continued humming a beautiful song and rubbing my back trying to comfort me as I shook in fear.
"Where's Michael?" I asked with my face still buried between his neck and shoulder.
"He's still downstairs with the guests. We didn't want them leaving in this storm. The emergency radio went off telling people to stay put because of the possibility of flash floods. He was going to come up to check on you but his grandmother told him to stay, that you are an adult and you could handle the storm. I snuck off because I remember him telling us about an episode you had right after you started dating. If you would prefer I can go down and send him up here." Edward said as he continued rocking and rubbing my back.
"No, please stay." I whispered.
"Of course." He replied quietly and then he turned his face so he could kiss my hair.
As the storm continued he continued rocking me and rubbing my back. The storm continued to intensify and finally a loud crack of thunder shook the house and lightning lit up the room and the power went out. I started shaking, crying, and hyperventilating all at once. I shift so my legs were straddled across Edward's lap not caring that I was still wearing a dress. I brought my body as close to Edward as possible. He continued rubbing my back at a faster pace. I buried my face as far into his neck and shoulder as I could. He started whispering, "I'm here baby. I've got you. It will be ok. Come on baby open your eyes." over and over. I continued to shake for what felt like hours but, it was probably only minutes.
The lights came back on and I calmed down. I raised my head and simultaneously realized how we were sitting. I could feel him. I looked into his eyes and saw something raw in his eyes. I felt him shift and I felt him become hard. I shifted forward slightly and I could feel more. Slowly, he brought his hand to my cheek and he wiped away my tears with his thumb. I tilted my head so his entire palm caressed my cheek and slowly closed my eyes.
He shifted his hips in an upward motion causing his hard member to drive further into where I wanted to feel him more. He moved his hands to my legs and dragged them along my thighs moving my dress in the process. Ever so slowly he moved his right hand around so he could caress my ass. He lifted his left hand from my thigh and moved it to my neck. He wrapped his hand around the back of my neck and pulled me closer to him, at the same time he leaned forward. Slowly his lips descended towards mine. At first it was a peck but our lips came together again in an intense and desperate kiss.
His hands continued to caress my ass and tangle into my hair. My hands moved first to his hair where I pulled, they descended down his back and at the same time continued grinding on him. My hands moved around to his chest where I started undoing the buttons on his shirt. Once his buttons were undone I pushed the shirt off his shoulders. He began unzipping the back of my dress and simultaneously I began lifting the hem of his undershirt. He lifted his arms so his shirt could be removed and my dress dropped down my sides staying bunched up at my waist.
Lips moved to shoulders and hands rubbed over exposed skin as we continued grinding into each other. He reached behind my back and released my bra and immediately I pushed my chest out giving him better access to my breast. He took my right nipple into his mouth and began massaging the left. My head tilted back and I let out a low moan of pleasure. I brought my hands between us and began lowering the zipper of his pants quickly his long thick member popped out of his pants. I was surprised I had expected him to have boxers but he was commando.
Instead of removing the remainder of our clothing he reached under my dress and shifted my panties to the side. He guided me down his wonderful length. I began the ride of my life. We both were moaning and groaning. I didn't want it to end. He reached between us and used his hand and found my clit. He began pinching and continued working my breasts at the same time. I came harder than I ever have in my entire life. He followed right behind calling, baby so good, over and over. Out of breath I leaned my head on his shoulder and he leaned his head against the back of the chaise and gazed up towards the ceiling.
Slowly my eyes began to close however a loud crack of thunder brought reality crashing back down. Realizing, I just cheated on my husband with his father I jumped up and ran towards my bathroom. I turned the shower on and jumped in scrubbing myself raw. When I finally climbed out, the water was cold and the storm had stopped. I put my night clothes on and walked into the bedroom. I glanced over to the corner where Edward and I fucked and noticed everything was cleaned up. So, I climbed into bed and cried myself to sleep while thinking of what an awful person I am.
