Love Though Any Time (25/?) Torchwood NC-17
Chapter Twenty Four
James
Dinner was fantastic, full of flirtations and Italian pasta. Emmett had cooked it all himself, with a little help from Damien. We talked about everything from our families to whatever was on our minds. After dinner and dessert which was a delicious chocolate mousse with whipped cream, I dashed off to the bathroom. I opened the medicine cabinet and tried looking for the tube of lubricant but it didn’t seem to be there. I knew it wasn’t in my bedroom because I hadn’t had sex in there for ages and decided to leave it in the medicine cabinet.
I started to groan as I checked under behind the spare tube of toothpaste, packet of Panadol and other strange items I kept in there. I closed the cabinet and nearly kicked the cabinet under the sink in frustration. I thought about checking in there but it wouldn’t be since there was where I kept the toilet cleaner.
“James, are you alright?” Emmett asked at the doorway.
“I’m fine just looking for the....oh it doesn’t matter,” I replied with a smile before walking over to him. I put my arms around him. “Thanks for such wonderful dinner,”
Emmett smiled, “My pleasure, still not sure what I did to deserve you,” He replied kissing me softly.
“So you deserve me now even after what you said?” I asked with a smile.
“James, I feel bad about what I said,” Emmett replied, “It made you depressed and go on a sex binge, it made realise what much I care about you.”
I shrugged,” I’m sorry that I put you through that,” I replied honestly, “You can ask me about it with you want?”
“No I rather not bring up the past,” He replied before moving back and taking my hand, “Right now I rather dance with you in my room.”
We walked to his bedroom and I waited while he took out a Cole Porter record. I started to think about what the song might be, Anything Goes, Night and Day or even It’s De-lovely. While I was thinking I slipped off the jacket and popped it down on the chair.
“I’ve got you under my skin,” Emmett sang when the music started to play, “I’ve got deep in the heart of me,” He kept going and guided me close into his arms.
“Ah, I’m going to have this stuck in my head now,” I told him seriously, “But you’ve made this romantic.”
Emmett didn’t reply but just kept singing beautifully along with Cole Porter. I closed my eyes and let the music drift me away to another place where it was just me and Emmett. A few times I felt him stroke my light brown hair and kiss me softly on the forehead. After the music had finished I opened my eyes just as Emmett placed his lips upon my mine. Our mouths seemed to fight for control before I felt his tongue move in, sending a slight tremor down my spine. In the middle of it all I didn’t noticed his hands slip towards the shirt buttons until I started to feel it. I pulled back suddenly.
“Are you sure?” I asked, “I mean is this what you want?”
“Absolutely,” Emmett replied with a smile, “I love you James Elton and I want to rip you out of that suit and make love to you.”
I grabbed his hand and dragged him to my bedroom across the hall.
“Sorry I want you in my bed,” I replied when I saw his puzzled look. He shrugged.
“I don’t mind as long as it’s you,” He said before putting a hand into his trouser pocket, “That reminds me, Jack said this would help,” He added and pulled out the tube of lube, “Found this in your medicine cabinet.”
My cheeks started to glow bright red which made Emmett start to laugh.
“As I said you’re quite sexy, totally irresistible and I want to make you mine,” He told me throwing his arms around my waist, “Will you let me?”
I answered by pushing him into a deep kiss.
“I love you Emmett Kingston,” I replied a few minutes later.
