Butterfly and Flame - Alina and Evan

Ashley and Elliot

Finally. After driving for hours they were at the inn. Hours from home and exhausted from the adrenaline high they were on and the fear of being found out before they could make their escape. They were happy to be able to actually live out their dream of being together.
"Ashley, wake up sweetheart we're here" said Elliot as he ran his finger softly across her cheekbone. She had fallen asleep about 30 minutes ago and he couldn't blame her, but now they had to hurry up and get checked in. "Mr. and Mrs. Stephenson" he said quietly in the car. That had a nice ring to it. They were not officially married yet, but that was just a technicality as they would go to city hall in the morning and be married. After that they would face her parents. That was something daunting for Elliot. He considered her parents like his own family as he and her younger brother Andres were best of friends. Right now he couldn't worry about what they would say or the fact that he would get an earful from his own sister. All he could see and think of was her. Ashely. They loved each other and nothing would keep them apart. Not now, not ever.

Ashley looked over at Elliot with love and excitement in her eyes. She couldn't believe they had done it. She wasn't afraid of what lay ahead of them but she was a little sad at what her parents would think and go through when they realized she had gone and what she was about to do. That couldn't be helped though. Her father had driven them to this decision. He had goaded and coaxed and even tried to bribe and threaten Elliot into leaving Ashely but that had not worked. Now they would finally be married and that was something even her father could do nothing about.
They had rented a small room above an old couples place in the valley months ago with their savings. They had spent some weekends hunting for the basics they would need at thrift stores. Her father would have died knowing that she was resorting to buying "used" items when she had everything she needed at home, with them. Ashley didn't care. She was starting a new life with Elliot. One her father could not control.
"Elliot, I'm so happy and I can't wait to be your wife. I love you so much babe and it's unbelievable that we are finally going to make our dreams come true". Alina was beaming with joy and Elliot couldn't keep his eyes off of her. "Ashely as long as were together everything we do will be unbelievable.! I love you! Your everything to me. I can't take my next breath without you! You all I think about". Elliot leaned over the seat and brushed his lips over hers. It sent a chill down her spine and brought goosebumps up on her skin. His kisses were gentle and sweet and so full of promises yet undiscovered. He put his right hand on her face as his left arm wrapped around her shoulders and brought her closer. He deepened the his and coaxed her mouth open. She tasted of honey and strawberry's. He couldn't hide his desire for her as he lowered his lips to her neck and his hand dropped to her chest. They had gotten to know their bodies a little more over the last 4 months. And things only got hotter as they went. He was always careful to listen to her body language when he was getting to her boundaries and when he felt her discomfort. Today however was different. She let him explore more than ever before and he couldn't keep his hands to himself. He needed to breath some fresh air before they got to carried away. He was not going to let her first time be in a car, in a parking lot, when they had a beautiful weekend ahead of them.
She sighed when he removed his lips and pulled away. Her eyes were dreamy and moist and her lips red and swollen from kissing. She felt warm everywhere. She knew they would soon be together in every way and that thought kept her from jumping into his lap and begging for more. He was so gentle and yet she felt a storm beneath the surface. She was ready to find out all about it.
Elliot grabbed their suitcases and Ashley hand and he walked up to the reception area. Although they had their own place already, he was going to give her a proper honeymoon weekend a small but beautiful  inn near the ocean but not in the main high profile area of the Carmel Valley. They purposefully chose something on the outskirts just in case her father was searching for them. They registered under John and Elizabeth Summers. They made those names up on the way there. Once they had their keys it was a short distance to their room. As they walked in they noticed that the curtains were open and they had a lovey view of the trees and hills. Not an ocean view but they didn't care. All that mattered was them. Once again they felt the need to touch and kiss and be in each other's arms. Giving in to their desires they let themselves go. Stopping only to inhale and move towards the bed. Ashley wanted Elliot as much as he did her, but she didn't want to wait until tomorrow. She wanted to be his now. This moment. In this place. His and his alone. Married or not.
