# 45: Cakes and Cars!!
Merry Christmas! Show some love and kindness!
I am working on something really special! I am really excited to tell you all but it will be under wraps for a few months! But here is a really long chapter! Also Happy Holidays!
Sophia's POV :
"Jenny, I have to go for a site visit right now. These designs need to be made by day after tomorrow. So the clients get it by Thursday. Here is the dress that is for Elina; this is a priority she needs it for her Birthday." I said. "Yes, ma'am." She replied nodding. "I have an interview with Forbes on Friday; so make sure I have no schedule, and I am free whenever they call me. This dress is the one that I am going to wear for the photoshoot, so this is also a priority I need this ready by tomorrow." I said. "Yes, ma'am I will send this over and get t made personally." She said.
"Awesome I will be early at the office tomorrow arrange the meeting with the designer and the marketing team together," I said as I took my bag. They should be here any minute. "Got it." She said. "Okay, now I am rushing bye," I said. She waved as I left.
When I pressed the button for the elevator to come, my phone rang. "I am outside," he said. "I'm coming," I replied. I got in and reached the ground floor. I walked to the car and opened the passenger seat door. "Heyy!" I said. "Hi," he said as he kissed my cheek. I looked at the backseat. "Hi, Jordan," I said and smiled. "Hi." He grumbled. "What's up, grumpy old man?" I asked. "I was forced in this tiny back seat my legs!" he said as he threw his hands in the air. "Oh My Gosh! You can sit in the front," I said. "Yeah tell that to your boyfriend," he replied and glared at Edward.
"Fiancée," me and Edward corrected him at the same time. I smiled at him while he smirked at me instead. "Gad we are marking territories sweetheart," he said. I just rolled my eyes. "Great, I am going to be the third wheel for hours!" he said. "Go to sleep then," Edward snapped.
"I don't understand if Sophia said anything you would let her go and just kiss her and be like she is my sweetheart. And I have been your best friend your whole life while you snap at me. I am hurt!" he said. Edward just ignored him. I laughed. "It's okay Jordan when you have a kid you could always ask Uncle Ed to help you. You guys could spend time," I laughed. And now Edward ignored both of us.
***
We reached Huntington beach. The car ride was boring. I and Jordan wanted to listen to music bt Edward was being a Meany and was on so many business calls. E and Jordan tried our best to have fun but later just slept off.
We both got off. "What great companions I have. Slept of when I was driving," he mocked. Jordan looked at me. "Listen here, you idiot. You are the one that had calls; you were the one who didn't want to listen to music. You didn't want to play games. You wanted silence. You better not piss me off more Ed. I swear to god you will sleep on the couch for a week. Now get your ass on the site only when you have a better attitude." I snapped as I grabbed Jordan's hand where he stood there with his mouth hanging open.
We walked in and let out a breath. I closed my eyes. Counting to ten, I opened them and gave Jordan a huge smile. "Gosh, you are bipolar. I was pitying you since you have to handle a workaholic like him. But god you change your moods like you blink your eyes but, you also have guts." Jordan said.
"Sometimes he needs to take a chill pill," I said making Jordan laugh. We entered the sites as the team we had sent, was working out the rooms. I walked in when the manager of this site greeted us. "Hello Mrs Salvatore and Mr Bennet," he said and smiled at us. "Hi, I will come straight to the point. Your site is the only one that is to be finished. May I know the reason?" I asked. He gulped.
"I am waiting for an answer," I said. "Ma'am it would only take a month more. We are almost done," He said. "A month?" I asked. "Don't bullshit me. Get this done in two weeks or you are going to get fired, Mr Hampton." I said. "Yes, ma'am," he said gulping again.
"Oh, where are your manners I am here for the first time come on show me around," I said smiling. His eyes widened at my sweetness. "Go Ahead show her around; I and Edward, will be almost behind," Jordan said. He nodded.
Edward's POV :
I walked in as I noticed they had left. "Quite a girl you got there," Jordan chuckled. "I know she is bossy," I said. He looked at me blankly. "And I love it. It's hot," I said. "I knew it," he said. We both started walking. "Knew what?" I asked.
"That you guys were perfect for each other. I mean come on looks at your personalities you both have different but yet the same persona. She is sweet while you are this angry and short-tempered person. But you guys have this dynamic personality that only you both can handle. You guys complete each other. She is the good you need while you are the possessive and protective side she needs. You know it's a vice saying that in a relationship, the couple should have equal amounts of everything.
If you guys' case, it is true. She has the perfect attitude exactly like yours." He said as he laughed.
I glared at him. 'And which vice person said this?" I asked. "Oh Me," he said while I rolled my eyes. Idiot. We entered the dining area. Sophia stood in the middle. "You know what you should do? Instead of arranging everything in line, you should arrange in some pattern and on one wall you can have all the buffet and live counter and everything." She said. The manager nodded. "Otherwise, I love it! It's lovely!" she exclaimed. I smiled and looked at her.
"Whipped," Jordan muttered as he fake coughed. Before I could get hold him and punch him, he walked to her. "Your highness anything else?" he asked playfully. "No, you peasant," she said playfully.
He grabbed her hands and twirling her around. Her laugh could be heard all around the room as a smile made its way up to my face. "Hey, stop! She will get giddy!" I said, finally walking towards them. "Yes, Dad!" they said and stopped. "Come on we have work to do," I said and took Jordan with me and grabbed Sophia's hand.
We walked to the room string to see what all we still needed to buy.

Sophia's POV :
It was evening by the time we were back in LA. We had taken a takeout form Chipotle and were now sitting on the dining table. "Tomorrow we are going cake tasting," I said. He looked at me. "We?" he asked. "Yeah," I replied. "I have a busy schedule," he said and gave me a small smile.
"And I don't care. You better get your ass there. I am not getting fat alone," I huffed. He laughed. "Oh Come on if I eat so much cake then my abs?!" he said dramatically. "Sophia it's not like you are going to the raid the cake shop you have to take a bite," he said. "Oh Really,?" I asked sarcastically.
"If you don't come with me Salvatore, I swear to God I am going to forget that amazing proposal and not come to the wedding," I said getting up as I placed my plate in the sink. "Calm down woman, I am coming," he shouted while I smirked. Works every time.
"Why do you always threaten me like that?" he asked as he placed his plate down. "Cause I like seeing you panicked," I smiled patting his cheek.
"But I know you won't do that," he said as we walked up the stairs. "Of course I won't," I said as I smiled back at him. "So I have something for you," I said and pulled him outside.
"Really?!" he asked. "Of course, Why do you always have to surprise me? I can do that too," I said. He picked me up immediately. "You are the best." I smiled and kissed his cheek. "Okay, close your eyes and put me down," I asked him.
"Don't tell me its a dog!" He shouted. "Oh My Gosh! Calm down its not a dog you know I am allergic!!" I said. "Oh Yeah!" he said sadly. This Man!
I pulled him out in the garage. "Okay, open your eyes!" I said, excitement in my voice. He opened them slowly. "What's this?!" he asked. "You didn't!!" he said and ran to it, moving his hand over the bonnet.
"Where the hell did you find this?!" he asked. "Oh just some connections," I said and smiled. " Lamborghini Aventador SVJ 63 Roadster?! just by some connections?!" he asked. I nodded. He walked to me and picked me up twirling me around. "EDWARD!!!" I shouted. "I LOVE YOU!! THIS; IS THE BEST GIFT EVER!!!!" He shouted back.
"Okay... I get it put me down! I am feeling dizzy!" I said. He put me down and immediately hugged me. I hugged him back. "Glad you like it," I said and laughed. "Like it?! I freaking love it!" he said. "Your welcome," I said. He kissed me as soon as the sentence came out of my mouth.
"Okay lover boy. Let's go to sleep," I said yawning. "No, let's go for a long drive," he said as he ran to the car. "Okay you go bye," I said and walked in. I am tired. "Please?!" he asked. "Ed I am tired after running around all day if you wanna go please really I am fine with it," I said as another yawn escaped my lips.
"Yeah like you are going to bed while I will go for a drive," he said and rolled his eyes. I smiled. "Sorry babe, Tomorrow we'll go, promise," I said. He narrowed his eyes at me as another yawn escaped my lips while I fell on the bed.
"You are tired," he said as he got into bed. "Yeah, no shit sherlock," I said and closed my eyes. "I am not going to say anything after what you did," he replied. I turned around and faced him as he pulled me close. "You deserved it, Edward," I said as I placed my head on his arm.
"Thank you," he whispered. "Dont thank me, I wanted to do something for you," I replied softly. "I was talking about for being here with me," he whispered. I smiled and pecked his lips. "Always," I drifted to dreamland.

"No mom, Edward has an allergy to pineapples!" I said. He looked at me. "How do you know that? I never told you," he said. Our mothers' looked at us. "Yeah, and you should have but am I complaining?" I asked. "Is she always this grumpy?" my mom asked Edward as I glared at her.
"I can hear you!" I said. "Gosh, son I pity you," my mom added. He just smiled at me while I walked away and sat on the chair. I was having my periods. So don't cross my path. I will snap at you for even existing.
Cookies-cream placed in front of me. I looked up at the owner of the hands as Edward sat down in front of me. "Thanks," I mumbled as I started devouring the heavenly thing.
As soon as I finished eating; I smiled. "Okay, I am all good. Let's GO!" I said, cheerfully. My mom looked at me with horror. Amber patted her back. "It's okay Mrs Macford. She is just having a bad period," he explained. I looked at him with horror. "How do you know that? I never told you," I said. "Yeah, and you should have, but am I complaining?" he asked.
I smiled and walked to him and gave him a side hug. "I love you," I said. "I know," he replied and kissed my forehead. "AWWW!!!" we looked at our mothers' who had just gathered the attention of the whole bakery. We laughed.
"Let's get the vanilla cake it's a classic," I said. "What? No! You hate Vanilla!" he said. "We can't have a chocolate cake at a wedding, Ed," I explained. "We can; It's our wedding; We can have whatever we want," he said. He walked to the counter and booked the cake.
"See as easy as that," he said. I laughed. "Yes, sure," I said. "Okay now that's done, What about your tuxedo and a dress for Sophia. Do you guys have a designer in mind?" Amber asked. "Well, I have a friend who can do that for us," I said. "I have a designer in mind too you do yours from her I will do mine from mine," he said. "What? Why let's do it at the same place," I said.
"Sorry Sweetheart, I want it made by that designer only," he said. "Okay... Then I will get mine done from the same designer," I said. "NO!" he immediately answered. I looked at him. "Okay, I guess," I said sulking. I mean what more can I say.
"Cool, so today's work is done? I have work," he said and looked at his watch. I nodded and did not look at him. "Okay, we will also leave then," mom said. They both hugged us and left. "Come, I'll drop you," he offered. "No, it's okay, I will book a car you have an important meeting you go ahead," I said. He shrugged and walked off. Asshole.
After 5 minutes, I got up and checked my purse. Awesome. I don't have my card nor any cash. I sighed as I walked out. As I started walking just about to call Jenny to send me a car came and stopped just beside me. I looked at the person who scared the shit out of me only to find the windows rolled up and tinted.
"You Idiot! Can't you see? Why do you have a license if you can't drive?" I shouted. The window slowly rolled down as I saw a familiar face. "What the hell are you doing here?" I asked.
"Your Uber service ma'am," he said. I looked at him weirdly WHAT? I got into the car. "Why did you stop like that?" I asked. "I love scaring the shit out of you," he laughed. "Shut up! How did you know I was here?" I asked. "Ohh that I was just going by when I saw you walking out of the bakery pissed. So? What happened with lover boy?" he asked and rose his eyebrows. "Shut up," I said.
"Why were you around this area?" I asked. "None of your business," he said. I looked at him, "No, you didn't!" I squealed. "What?!" he asked. "You were dropping her off," I said. "No!" he replied. "Of Course you were I know her new office is here," I said and wiggled my eyebrows. "So what cake did you choose?" he asked.
"None of your business!" I replied. "HEY! My sister's Wedding is my Business!" he defended. "Aww, Shawn, how cute! Chocolate," I said and pinched his cheek. "Chocolate?" he asked. "It's a long story." I shrugged. "Cool, anyways, your stop is here ma'am," he said and smiled. "Shut up, Tell Allison I said Hi!" I said while got out. He pulled me back in.
"I need payment ma'am," he smirked. "Shawn shut up I will pay you later, Bye!" I said. But he didn't let me. "I swear to God, Brother or not; I will kill you! I have a meeting!" I said.
I struggled to get out of his grip when he suddenly left my hand, which made me almost fall to the ground. "You IDIOT!" I shouted. "Sorry, Sis! Also, I have been paid. Loverboy asked me to come and pick you up and give you this. He said you forgot your wallet at home, so he gave you this," he said and handed me some hundred dollars and Ed's Golden Credit Card. Wow.
I took it with a shocked expression. Edward always knows when I am in need. "Thanks!" I said. "See you soon, Sis!" he said as he urged for me to go in. I waved at him as soon as I reached the door he sped off. I smiled as I took out my phone. I smiled at the contact name he had saved for himself.
Me - Thank you so much. I didn't need so much money.
I immediately got a reply.
Sexy Husband😏 - Yes, you do. You are my wife. You shouldn't worry about money. Your welcome ; )
Me - Tell your designer I am going to have the best designer for my dress.
Sexy Husband😏 - Nope, My Designer is better. I am pretty sure.
Me - We'll see.... :\
I got back to work. After two hours of working there was a knock on my door. "Come in," I said furiously sketching on my drawing pad. "Ma'am your driver is here," said a deep husky voice. I smiled but did lookup. "Please ask him to wait, I am busy," I replied. He walked closer. "But ma'am he can't wait," he said. "Sorry but I have a lot of work to finish," I said.
The sketch pad was snatched out of my hand immediately and thrown on the desk. "EDWARD!" I said. He just looked at me as his eyes shone with a feeling that I had grown familiar with. Oh no.
"You are busy?" he asked. I got up walking away from him. "I was kidding babe," I said and got up from my chair and walking to the door to open it. But, as soon as I reached the door, I was turned around. My back slammed on the door while Edward just a centimetre away from me.
My heart rate quickened as my breathing started trembling. Ed's hand travelled up my arms and played with the collar of my shirt. While; his other hand was playing with the hem of my skirt. "I love how I still have the same effect on you," he smirked his hand travelling up my leg. I grabbed his shirt and fisting it in my hand.
"Edward," I gasped as his hand paled with the buttons of my shirt. "Yes, sweetheart?" he asked innocently. "Not here," I whispered. He smirked as he locked the door as my eyes widen.
"How about now?" he asked. I smirked as I pulled him towards me and smashed my lips on his. His hands grabbed my waist and pulled me as close as possible while mine went around his neck.
After a few minutes of intense.... that, we pulled apart. I fixed my hair as Ed grabbed his suit jacket off the floor. No. Dont ask how I was on the table or how his suit jacket on the floor. He unlocked the door.
"Let's go home," he said. "I still have work to finish," I said as I grabbed all the papers from the floor. He sat down on the chair. I looked up at him and raised my eyebrows. "Where am I supposed to sit?" I said and placed the papers on the desk. He smirked and pulled me down in his lap. "Ah!" I screeched at the sudden impact.
He hugged me from behind as he lightly kissed my neck. I cannot get out of this, can I? I sighed and adjusted myself in his lap as he groaned and, now it was my turn to smirk. "Serves you right," I laughed. "Sophia, you know I can take you right here and right now and you won't be laughing but screaming. So you better not tease me," he said his eyes turning lustfully dark.
Its been months and yet he loved me with the same passion and desire. I shut up and gulped heavily and started working. After a few minutes, There was a knock on the door. I looked at Edward his hands around my waist, me on his lap and his head on my shoulder and him sleeping soundly.
I muttered a come in. "Ma'am you have to sign-" she started but stopped and looked at us wide eyes. I apologetically smiled at her and motioned her to speak slowly. "No, ma'am I can come in later," she whispered. Before I could reply the deep voice spoke up.
"It's okay don't mind me, Jenny, I am just here for some affection please continue," he said and pulled me into him. My eyes widened at his statement while Jenny looked uncomfortable. "Ma'am these are the papers for tomorrow's deal. And tomorrow you have a busy schedule," she said.
"But tomorrow I have to go for my wedding dress fitting!" I said. "Yes ma'am, I know, it is also included in the schedule," she replied. I nodded as I went through the papers and started signing them. There was a knock on the door. "Come in," I said as Carson walked in. He looked at Edward snuggling me and, his eyes widened.
He cleared his throat before he spoke, "Umm, Sir, you have an important person here to meet you," he said. Edward looked up at him. "What the fuck are you doing here? I asked you to go home and not schedule any meetings!" Edward said his voice all authoritative. Carson shuddered.
"Babe, just a moment," he said softly. And I got up not knowing what to do. He got up from his - I mean my seat- and then through the door, Elina ran in. "Hey, guys!" she said. Edward rolled his eyes as he sat back down and pulled me down with him.
"I went to your office and, Carson said you were here. Do you ever leave her alone?" she asked and sat down in front of us. I laughed. "Jenny is the dress ready?" I asked. She nodded and left to get it. Carson also took our leave. "Why are you here?" he asks. "Well, I was coming to you to ask you if you want to accompany me to come here. But you were already here," she snapped.
He just ignored here his hands resting on my thigh. Oh No! "Didn't Kyle drop you?" I asked. "I am not allowing him to see the dress until prom!" she smiled. I nodded. I took out the file from my desk drawer.
"This is all I could find about him. You and Kyle can see if this helps. His home address is also in here," I said and passed the brown envelope to her. She nodded as she took it.
Edward looked at me. "Asher," I said as he nodded. Jenny walked in with the dress in its cover. "It will perfectly fit. Also, it is just like you wanted. If there is a problem just give me a call I'll come and fix it," I said smiling. She nodded excitedly. "Carson!" Edward shouted that made me jump. Carson walked in. "Yes, sir?" he asked. "Drop her home," he ordered.
I glared at him. "You are rude. Carson, could you please drop her home?" I asked. He looked at me wide-eyed like politeness was new to him. He looked and Edward and then immediately nodded his head. "You don't have to buddy. I drove myself here. I can drive back," Elina said and patted his back.
She came to us. I got up and hugged her. "Please let me know about your bridesmaid dress I will send a designer if you want or you can come here anytime and ask anyone to draw it for you or, you could make one for yourself," I offered. "I will just drop by and ask someone to make me one," she said grinning. Edward was typing on his phone; she kissed his cheek while he ruffled her hair.
"Bye, Soph! Bye, Bro!" she said and walked out of the room as we waved at her. I looked at the clock to see it was 7:30. "Let's go home," I said. He immediately shot up and grabbed my bag and pulled me out the door. I laughed. Someone was hungry!
"Jenny mail me the schedule for tomorrow," I said and passed by her desk. "Yes, ma'am," she said as we made our way into the lift.
Getting into the car and picking up a pizza on our way we got home. We snuggled up into the bed after having dinner as a movie played on the tv.
"When are you going to get your tuxedo?" I asked I still wanted to know where he was going. "Tomorrow," he muttered as he pulled me onto him. I trusted him. I was just curious. He gently stroked my thighs as my eyes became heavy. He kissed my forehead. "Goodnight Sweetheart," he said as I fell into a deep slumber.
