Edwin had been so nervous about Aiden finding everything out. He had texted Edward before they went into Chad’s office, informing him that Aiden appeared to not remember anything about what had triggered him and asking him not to mention any of it. Some things were better left unsaid. It would do no good if they told him that he had gone through something they didn’t know anything about, and watched a girl being tortured and then practically abused Edwin.
Aiden, on the other hand, had taken it quite well. All three of them had been actually surprised with the nonchalance the guy had shown. He had asked many questions about how that could even be possible and what it actually meant and was left quite confused, but he didn’t show any discomfort whatsoever. Edward was quite fascinated with how Aiden had reacted and said it had been the first time he saw someone not panicking over this news.
They had come back home. Edwin had texted every one of the friends NOT to ever mention anything about what Aiden had done to him and deleted the messages right after he made his point clear. They had promised to do as told.
Lying in the arms of the man he loved, he had fallen asleep without constant pain in his heart for the first time in ages. He hadn’t intended on telling Aiden how nearly everyone had left him alone in this, but it slipped his mouth at his angry estate.
He had wanted to fuck Aiden so much that it took all the self-control he had and more to stop himself and set it as a punishment for the older, for having done the one thing he had asked him not to do. He knew they would have their free days nevertheless, but he wanted to make Aiden understand a few facts, like he had to be his first priority cos he deserved it. If he wasn’t, then there was no point in any of this.
Getting ready and waiting for Aiden, he was cursing himself for telling the other man about his friends. It wasn’t even completely true. They had messaged him every day to see if there had been any progress. Joe and Max paid visits at least three times a week. He had to tell the older that it had been just some angry talk and get over with it. But he didn’t have a chance as Aiden walked out of the bathroom, went to the walk-in closet, and started packing clothes in a suitcase.
“Um, what are you doing?” He somehow panicked, standing at the entrance, thinking Aiden was actually considering leaving him for a few days after what happened.
“Pack the stuff you need. We’re going on a trip. Pack for like 4-5 days.”
Edwin stood there looking at him with confusion written all over his face.
“Where are we going and why? The guys are coming here tomorrow.” He said, watching Aiden put more items into the case.
“Well, I’d rather spend time alone with you than some people who would just leave you alone like that. They’re just gonna have to wait if they’re so caring.”
Aiden was angry. Edwin could tell, although he was trying to appear calm. He had that intense look in his eyes, one that he controlled while he was around him.
“Babe, no, they were stressed as well and I-“
Aiden cut him off by throwing the handbag he liked the most at him. “I don’t care why they did what they did. Let’s talk about this later. Just pack your contact lenses and other stuff in that.” He kissed his cheek on his way out.
That was how they ended up in the small town, which was more like a village, by the sea. Aiden had picked there saying ‘I’m not that famous to have fans there.’ and boy was he wrong! They were everywhere. Literally everywhere! But they had been so nice that they ended up having a fun time interacting with them in the two days they spent there. Their friends kept calling, but Aiden told him strictly NOT to answer them. He had such a great time chilling in that town that he was kinda sad they had to leave. The food was amazing at that tiny restaurant they picked randomly, and he got to know just how famous and loved his boyfriend was. And the said boyfriend had been showering him with all the love in the world in every second. How could it get any better?!
He thought they were going back, but Aiden seemed to have other plans as they ended up in Paris. There was a Mercedes waiting for them at the airport. Edwin looked at Aiden with confusion and the other just smiled at him and patted his back to get in the car as the driver had already opened the door for them.
Getting in, Edwin looked at Aiden who was texting someone. Pursing his lips, he narrowed his eyes. “You’re not texting the guys, are you? I swear if you end up making me look bad…”
Aiden looked up at him with widened eyes. “What? No! Of course not, baby.” His voice was so soft, Edwin wanted to melt.
Aiden put his phone back in his pocket and leaned toward Edwin, slid his palm slowly on his cheek, and pecked his lips, letting them linger on each other for a few seconds. Leaning back just a couple of centimeters, Aiden looked into his eyes with so much passion and adoration, it almost made his heart explode. Well, it did explode, but just internally.
The thumb on his cheek started caressing his skin very gently as they kept looking at each other. It was like the time had stopped and they were the only ones in the whole world.
“I love you.” His boyfriend said in that sexy, deep voice of his.
Edwin smiled brightly as he closed his fingers around the wrist of the hand that was on his cheek and tilted his head a bit, leaning into the touch. “I love you too.”
Their little moment was over as the driver got in the car after having put their stuff in the trunk. “Shall we go?”
Aiden kissed quickly before sitting back and answering the driver with a nod through the mirror. The phone vibrated again and his boyfriend was quick to check it. He smiled at whatever text he got and typed something fast, slipping the device back into his jeans. Edwin raised an eyebrow but didn’t comment on it. He was sleepy. He hadn’t been able to sleep on the plane, and now the tiredness was catching up to him.
Sinking into the seat a bit, he leaned his head back and closed his eyes. Aiden must’ve noticed, as he moved closer to him and told him to lay his head on his shoulder. He did cos it felt way better to sleep on a muscular pillow. His boyfriend intertwined their fingers and caressed the back of his hand with his free one. He had wanted to sleep but he couldn’t cos the other’s touches were so delicate, he found himself basking in every second of it. And the way his soft lips felt on his skin when Aiden moved their hands up to kiss his? Don’t even get him started!
“It’s gonna be a bit of a ride. Sleep. I’ll wake you up when we’re there.” The older said, brushing his hair out of his face, which Edwin was thankful for, cos they had been on his nerve but he didn’t have the energy to do it himself.
“I can’t sleep if you keep kissing and caressing my hand. It feels too good to miss.” He said without opening his eyes.
Aiden chuckled and kissed his forehead. “Not my fault you’re this delicious. I’m sorry. I’ll stop now.”
Edwin smiled and copied what the other had done. He kissed Aiden’s hand and let the intertwined fingers fall back on his lap before he let himself go into the dreamland.
He woke up to lips whispering his name against the skin of his temple and fingers playing with his earlobe.
“Eddie, we’re here.”
Opening his eyes and stretching a bit, he looked out of the window. He completely forgot about sleep when he saw the gigantic luxurious hotel they were in front of.
“Come on, let’s go.”
They got out of the car and an employee came to greet them and take their luggage to their room.
“Welcome, Mr. Evans.” The clerk welcomed them with a smile. Edwin could swear he saw hearts pouring out of her eyes as she looked at Aiden giving her their passports for required information.
“Everything’s been set as you asked. Here’s the key to your room. Enjoy your time.” She handed them two cards and smiled so brightly as Aiden shook her hand. “Thank you.”
They walked to the elevator. The older pressed the button, hugged his waist, and pulled him closer to himself.
“They’re watching!” Edwin whispered as he looked around.
“So?”
“…what if they take pictures?!”
“Again, so?!”
Edwin looked at Aiden and frowned. He had taken his hand away with the speed of light back at the small town and now it was okay?
The door opened, and they walked inside. Aiden pressed the very top floor and leaned back against the elevator wall.
“Why are you frowning?”
“Ha? Uh, nothing. I just thought we’d have to keep a certain distance in public.” He explained as he moved his hands to show that it wasn’t anything serious.
“Hmmm, we don’t necessarily. You know our home country has a number of traditional ‘religious’ people. So… yeah, maybe it would be better not to hug and stuff there. But here it’s okay. Come here.” He said and pulled Edwin flush against his body, attaching their lips together.
“I caught the driver staring at you twice. I mean I can’t blame him but once more and I was ready to fight.” His boyfriend said as he locked his fingers behind his back, keeping him close.
Edwin’s hands were resting on Aiden’s chest. “Why was he staring at me!?!”
“I don’t know. Why do you have to be so beautiful to mesmerize everyone who looks at you?” Aiden said and buried his head in his neck, inhaling his scent in a deep breath. “Beautiful and delicious.” He whispered, probably to himself, but Edwin could hear with how close they were. Didn’t elevators have cameras?… Was someone behind the screen, watching them be all lovey-dovey right now?! Oh god no!
His eyes widened as he pressed his palms on Aiden’s chest and pushed himself away. Aiden was left confused as he raised his eyebrows at him. Edwin looked up and found what he was looking for. Looking back at Aiden, he pointed at the camera that was spying on them. The older looked in the direction he was pointing and laughed, shaking his head.
“You being shy is my biggest kink.” He pinched his cheek.
The door opened, and Aiden took his hand in his, walking out.
“I’m not shy. I’m just not comfortable with some stranger watching us make out.” As soon as his sentence finished, Aiden who was looking back at him smiled softly and patted the back of his hand.
“Sure baby. Whatever makes you sleep at night.” He grinned and the left side of his mouth curled up.
Edwin rolled his eyes and was waiting for Aiden to open the door so he could crash on the bed and sleep some more. Jet lag was no joke.
Their luggage was already put there before they got in, but that wasn’t the thing that caught his attention. The whole suite was.
It was big and everything about it screamed EXPENSIVE. It looked like one of those chambers in a castle with big chandeliers and folded curtains at every corner and even at the entrance. There were candles in fancy holders everywhere, scented ones cos there was this satisfying scent in the air, like freshly cut roses. That was not even the most important feature, though. It was the small pool right in the middle of the suite.
Edwin found himself staring at the whole place with a parted mouth in awe. It was… beautiful. And he had lived in the most beautiful apartment he had ever seen for a little more than a year now! The whole design took his breath away, much like the first time he had been in Aiden’s apartment.
“This is magical! I feel like I’m in Delilah’s chamber!” He said as he turned to look at Aiden, who had been looking at him all this time.
“Delilah? As in Samson and Delilah?!” The older asked, raising his brows in question.
Edwin nodded vigorously.
“Oh god! Don’t ever tell me you’re not dramatic ever again!” Aiden laughed loudly and grabbed his wrist, making him move along.
Turning to the left, he saw the bed that had been hidden from them where they had been standing. The whole bed was surrounded by silk curtains. It was so beautiful, Edwin wanted to just hug it. If only his hands were long enough…
“EVEN THE BED LOOKS LIKE THE ONE IN DELILA’S CHAMBER!” He squealed at Aiden who laughed harder at his fanboying over the place.
“I’m happy you like it. Come on, there’s something I wanna… give you. It should be on the bed.” He let go of his wrist when they were standing by the bed and crouched down to grab something.
It was a black box and, as Aiden was standing in front of him again, he panicked. What was inside the black box? It couldn’t be… no, no, NO! It was bigger than a ring box, but… what if it was?! They were on good terms, but nowhere near the whole marriage thing. And was it even legal in Paris?! Oh no, why did it turn upside down so quickly? Should he say yes? Would Aiden be upset if he said no? Please let it be anything but a ring, please, please—
He must have gone pale or something as Aiden patted his forearm and chuckled. The pat was a much-needed help for him to regain his focus.
“Relax, it’s not what you think!” Aiden chuckled again and started struggling to open it. “I had so many plans for our anniversary but in the end, I ended up not being around when it came by…” He managed to get the main box out and threw the one that was empty now on the bed. “I will do my best at loving you endlessly and giving you presents. This will be the first one. It’s a few months late but happy first anniversary, my love.”
Inside the box were two watches. Couple ones. One silver and one rose gold. They were from the brand he had always loved but never dared to go near to cos the prices were just mind-blowing.
Aiden kept the box in front of him. “Which one do you want?”
He answered without hesitation. “The silver one!”
His boyfriend smiled and took the silver one out, putting it on Edwin’s wrist and humming in satisfaction. “Just like I imagined it’d look.” Aiden was a fashionista. He always knew just what to buy.
“This is beautiful. Thank you, baby! Thank you for all of it.” He jumped up and closed his legs around his boyfriend’s hips. The older hugged him tightly.
“I love you, Edwin. I’m sorry I forget to remind you of that sometimes. And I’m sorry I forgot my priorities and took you for granted. I’ll make sure to confess my love every day with endless kisses and all the gifts you deserve.”
Edwin wanted to slap him at that moment. Aiden basically told him how much he loved him at every chance he got, kissed him every spare second, or every time they were close enough. Sure, he had done one mistake by texting Luis, but that didn’t mean he had taken him for granted. Jesus!
“What are you even talking about! When did you ever take me for granted!?” He attached himself more to the muscular body that was holding him up like he weighed nothing.
Aiden turned a bit and sat on the edge of the bed with Edwin sitting on his lap, making the curtains fall over their shoulders a bit. He leaned back to be able to look at his lover’s beautiful face, his arms still around the other’s neck and legs crossing behind his back.
“We’ve been together for more than a year now and this is the very first time I’m taking you on a decent trip. Even this one isn’t enough cos we have to go back after two days. We basically spent all of the free time I could squeeze out of my schedule in the apartment. You must have felt sick of those same walls…” Aiden looked down and didn’t say anything for a few seconds. His face was extremely sad at that moment.
Edwin started playing with the strands of black hair, soothing both of their nerves while waiting for Aiden to continue.
“But it will be different now. Now that you’ve finally agreed on working with me. We will travel together everywhere. You won’t have to stay alone at home waiting for me anymore and I won’t have to lock myself in the hotel room, working like crazy to keep myself from ditching everything and flying right back to you.” The older looked up and smiled at him, showing his straight teeth.
Edwin returned the big smile and poked the left side of Aiden’s lip corner with his index finger. “I love how this corner of your lip lifts higher than the other side.” He chuckled. “And yes. It will be amazing. I would go crazy if I had to wait for you to come back one more time. I can’t stay away anymore. I’m too whipped for that!” They both smiled as they looked deep into each other’s eyes. It was as if they could see past the surface, straight into the depth of the other’s soul, the core of their emotions.
The reflection of the candles had made a tiny heart in Aiden’s eyes. Seeing that, Edwin smiled to himself and leaned in, slowly pressing their lips together. He moved closer to the older’s body, locking his legs tighter around him as he deepened the kiss. Aiden gripped his waist and rubbed his thumbs on his sides. Something Edwin enjoyed a lot. He hummed into the kiss as he slid his tongue in his boyfriend’s mouth and waited for the other to start manhandling him cos he missed it so much. But for some reason, Aiden seemed to be under control and not pushing Edwin into the mattress like he normally would have done by now.
The reason was soon clear as the phone in their room started ringing. Edwin didn’t want to let him go, so he took Aiden’s bottom lip between his teeth to prevent him from moving. Aiden struggled a bit to free himself, but he tightened his limbs around the older as the phone kept ringing. His boyfriend chuckled and moved his head backward slowly, with his bottom lip still caught by Edwin’s teeth, and tickled him. Edwin screamed, resulting in the other being able to quickly escape him as he let him fall on the bed and went to answer the damn phone that didn’t know timing at all.
He lay back on the fluffy covers and stretched his body all over it. It was seriously magical. The silk curtains were wrinkled and the way they filtered the light from outside was just overwhelming. He couldn’t wait to have sex in there! The shadows those curtains would paint on Aiden’s body… He was getting turned on just from the thought itself when Aiden’s head appeared between the small gap the silk material provided.
“Get up, Ed. We have a whole table of food waiting for you to eat.” The older stretched his hand for him to grab, which he appreciably took.
“What? So you didn’t plan on having sex after that whole romantic moment from the start?! I feel betrayed!” He said while fixing his clothes and hair.
“You said I’m under punishment until you say otherwise, remember? I didn’t think a mere watch would make you that emotional. Let’s go.”
Edwin noticed Aiden had already put his own watch on as he intertwined their fingers and started walking.
“A mere watch?! Baby, these cost more than some people’s whole year’s salary!”
Aiden stopped on his track and turned his whole body to him. “Didn’t know you were that materialistic, but okay. I’m gonna keep that in mind.” He smiled and fixed Edwin’s shirt a bit, a wrinkle that he himself must have missed, and checked his whole body from top to bottom once before nodding to himself and resuming walking.
“I’m not materialistic. I’m just saying that it’s not just a ‘mere watch’. I’ve been in love with this brand my whole life! You don’t have to buy me ridiculously expensive stuff for me to love you and ‘get emotional’.”
Aiden shut him up by kissing his lips for a few seconds before placing one last peck and opening the door, holding it for Edwin to go first.
“I know you’re not materialistic. I was just teasing you. You’re the perfect friend and lover anyone could wish for. You don’t lack anything.” Aiden said as they got into the elevator, pressing Edwin between himself and the elevator wall with both of his hands on either side of the younger next to the slim waist.
“Babe, the camera.” He mumbled, but also circled his arms around Aiden’s neck. The reason? Because he knew how sneaky people could be. What if he pushed Aiden away, which he wanted to do cos there was someone, if not more, watching them, and then they sold the footage to some cash-crazy reporter and they made it look like Aiden was forcing himself on Edwin? He had seen these cases too many times with celebrities, he didn’t want it to happen to his boyfriend.
“I should tie you up and fuck you while recording you some time. See if you’ll still be able to be worried about a camera.” Aiden whispered against the skin of his neck.
“Okay. First, don’t say stuff like that. I’m already this close to wasting all the money you spent on the food we’re going to eat and dragging you back to that room to fuck me. Second, that would be different. That would be for us and not the whole world to see.”
“Mmm, I would love that. But sadly, my desire to watch you eat is way more than hearing you scream my name while I fuck you into the mattress. Preferably with your hands tied and a gag in your pretty mouth so you won’t be able to order me around like you did last time.” The older said and bit into his neck lightly, keeping his skin between his teeth for a couple of seconds.
Edwin was dying. He could feel his pants getting tighter. He knew Aiden was doing this on purpose to rile him up. He loved playing games with him in public like this.
“You wanna tie me up so you can fuck me like a sex doll without a chance to protest?” He hissed at the teeth on his neck and gripped Aiden’s sides, his fingertips pushing into the muscles.
“I wanna tie you up so you won’t be able to force yourself to stop. I know your horny ass, Edwin. You were dying for it just as much as I was. You can’t fool me, kitten.” The deep voice whispered in his ear, and the vibration from it sent several shivers down his spine. Aiden’s leg moved between his as the singer used it to make friction on his half-hard erection.
Edwin moaned quietly as he tightened his grip on Aiden’s hips and hit his head on the elevator wall. “Take me back to the room… please…”
Aiden’s tongue slid over his lips once before he let go of him altogether and took a step back. “No.” He deadpanned with a smirk and ran his fingers through his black hair. The usual ‘ding’ informed them they had arrived on the first floor. Aiden took his hand in his and winked at him before walking out of the elevator and dragging an unfocused, horny Edwin after himself.
