Fan Fiction / Zoids Fan Fiction ❯ Unforgettable ❯ dinner ( Chapter 5 )

Irvine walked into Van's office late in the day just before he planned to go home. When he walked into the room he saw Van just sitting around and staring off into space. "What's up buddy?" he asked snapping Van out of his little daydream causing him to look at Irvine. "What are you still doing here? Aren't you planning to head home?" he asked walking towards the desk.

"Just thinking. I was going to be leaving soon anyways," said Van leaning back in his very comfortable chair. Fiona had only left a few moments before Irvine came in and he liked the quietness that the empty room had at the moment.

"About what? Does it have anything to do with Fiona?" asked Irvine and he became extremely interested when Van nodded his head. Irvine let out a small chuckle. "It is about time that you try going after her again," he said jumping to conclusions while Van jumped out of his chair.

"No, no, no, no," said Van waving his hands in front of his face. "I am doing no such thing. I am married remember," said Van holding up his wedding band to remind Irvine.

Irvine just rolled his eyes wishing that that one little fact were actually non-existent. "I say that you dump her and go for Fiona," he said with a smirk but he knew that Van wouldn't do something like that. He had morals that he followed, especially when it came to his marriage.

"I am not going to do that. It is just that Fiona invited me to a dinner that she was planning on having," said Van but he knew that that didn't sound right and he also knew that Irvine realized this as well. He felt like smacking himself for making it sound the way that it did.

Irvine smirked when he heard what Van had said. "Oh, I see. So it is her that is taking the initiative," he said but he also knew that that wasn't exactly what it was that Van was really talking about.

"It is nothing like that!" yelled Van getting very frustrated. "She invited both Tiffany and me over to dinner with her and her boyfriend," said Van. He was frustrated but he knew that Irvine was only trying to tease him a little. It was just something that he liked to do.

"Good luck getting your wife to go," he said with a smirk turning around and starting to walk towards the door. "If I know enough, she will try everything to refuse," he said stopping at the door.

Van sat back down within his chair and leaned his head back while spinning a pen in his fingers. "I don't know what you mean by that. I am sure that she will take it just fine."

*****

"No!" said Tiffany stubbornly when Van had told her about what the dinner that Fiona had invited them to go to. She absolutely refused to go anywhere that Van's old girlfriend was. She hadn't even met her and she had a deep loathing for her all of a sudden.

"Oh come on. It is just a dinner and it will give the two of you some time to get to know each other. You don't really need to be upset about our past because that is all that it is now," said an exasperated Van. He had no idea why she would suddenly start to act like this. When he first met her she was really nice.

"I don't care," she replied making an emphasis on each of the words to try and make it clear to Van that she planned to never go anywhere near Fiona. "I am not going to be going to this dinner and that is final!" she basically yelled right into Van's face.

"Why the hell are you being so damn stubborn about all of this? It won't hurt you to be nice a little and just go to this thing once. It is just one dinner with Fiona and her fiancé," said Van growing even more frustrated with each second that passed in the argument between him and his wife.

"There is no way that I am going to go to this and that is final!" she said standing up and getting right into Van's face. There is absolutely no way that you will be able to make me go either!"

*****

She had absolutely no idea how it was that Van had actually managed to get her to go in the first place. She had been adamant about not going but now here she was driving into the long driveway that led to a rather nice looking house. It would almost be considered a mansion but it was smaller than most would be. Van and her could have had a mansion but Van liked a smaller cozier place to live in which was what they lived in now.

"Now please try to be kind to them. We are their guests here," he said knowing that sometimes her temper could sometimes get out of control and that when it happen she was prone to saying a lot of harsh thing to anyone nearby. All he received from his wife was a grunt showing that she had indeed heard what he had said. He just rolled his eyes before he pulled his car to a stop in front of the door.

The two of them got out of the car and walked towards the door. Van was about to knock on it but it was opened before his fist came in contact with it to reveal Fiona waiting for them in a very lovely white dress. It came up to her knees and had a V-cut neckline that showed only a modest amount of cleavage. Van had to admit that it was a dress that fit Fiona perfectly.

"You look very lovely Fiona," said Van with a smile only to be elbowed in the gut by his wife. He didn't see what was wrong with complementing an old friend such as Fiona. Then again, his wife was general a very jealous type of person.

"You look very nice too Van. This must be your wife. It is a pleasure to meet you. Van has told me a lot about you," said Fiona sticking out a hand for a handshake but Tiffany only seemed to ignore it. When Fiona was sure that she wasn't going to shake her hand she pulled it back and stepped aside. "Come in you two. We have been waiting," said Fiona with a bright smile.

The three of them walked silently with Tiffany keeping a very close eye upon Fiona. `Damnit, I really hate to admit it but this woman is actually good looking, but definitely not as good looking at me,' she thought arrogantly. `I guess I have nothing to worry about because I am sure that Van wouldn't dare to leave me for this trash. I mean she wears white, don't you usually have to be pure to wear that. I am sure that she must not be a virgin, especially after all I had heard about her fiancé,' she thought glaring at Fiona.

"Don't you usually have to be pure to wear white?" Tiffany asked rather rudely to Fiona. This time it was her turn to be elbowed by Van. She looked at him while he glared at her.

"What do you mean by that?" Fiona asked stopping and turning around to look at Tiffany with the kind look on her face that was a normal feature of Fiona. she stared at Tiffany wondering why she would think that especially when she had never once in her life had sex.

"That was extremely rude Tiffany," growled out Van looking at her with annoyed eyes. "Fiona isn't the type to do something like that. She is very adamant about waiting until she gets married before she does anything like that," Van said finding it very rude that she could even ask that sort of thing.

Tiffany just turned her head to the side avoiding and eye contact with anyone. She knew she was rude that ask that but it just came out of her mouth all of a sudden because she happened to be thinking about it at the time.

Van had to admit to himself that when they used to go out there was many times that he could have taken that from Fiona. Despite not wanting it to happen, one of those many times and probably the closest they had come to it suddenly popped up into his head.

***Flashback***

A heavenly aroma could be smelt through the luxurious home that Van lived in with his father. Currently his father was away on a business trip and Van had the place all to himself. He had ended up inviting Fiona over to have dinner with him. Although they did have a cook to prepare meals, Van decided to attempt his hand at cooking and so far it didn't appear to be coming out too bad if the delicious aromas were any indication that what he was cooking would smell good.

Soothing music filled the air because he knew that Fiona liked that sort of music so he decided to give her a night filled with many things that she loved to have. Some of those things included the music, food, and many other things.

Fiona's hips swayed lightly to the music while Van watched her from near the stove. The food was taking way too long to cook in his opinion and he wished to be with Fiona. He made up his mind and removed the food from the hot burner and slowly snuck up behind Fiona and wrapped his arms around her waist.

Fiona jumped lightly in surprise when she felt it but slowly closed her eyes and enjoyed the feeling of being wrapped up within his arms. She leaned back willingly into his arm with a very bright smile on her face. They had been going out for a few years and yet she could never get tired of the feeling of being within his arms.

They were currently in the middle of their senior year of high school and neither of them could be happier. They had both hoped to go to the same college but they would have to wait in order to see how that would happen.

As of late, their relationship had been taking a very serious turn. Fiona had been wondering what would happen, if they would end up actually doing something like that with each other. She had always been taught by her parents to wait for marriage before having sex but she didn't know how long she would have been able to hold out when she was going out with someone like Van. She loved him with all of her heart. He was the type of person who, if everything went right, she would love to spend the rest of her life with.

"Don't startle me like that Van," she said but not in a harsh tone. Her eyes were closed while she nestled into his arms, feeling the heat that his body was giving off. Needless to say, she was in pure heaven.

"Sorry about that. I just saw you and had to join you in your little dance," he whispered into her ear. He was lightly swaying to the music just as Fiona had been before and she followed his every movement so willingly. Fiona was his dream girl and he had every intention of keeping her for himself, and keeping himself only for her.

Fiona moaned lightly when she felt Van start to lightly kiss her neck. His arms tightened slightly around her waist but she didn't object in the least. The feelings that he was giving her were something that she wanted to feel. "Van," she moaned out slightly when she felt his hands suddenly found their way to the area of skin at the bottom of her pink shirt. His touch sent shivers through her body but she didn't say a word.

"Day after day it is getting harder and harder for me to not be with you my love," he whispered into her ear before lightly kissing the side of her neck again. He was enjoying the reactions that he was giving Fiona. His hands slowly started to rise up a little bit. He was a bit hesitant but he was not receiving any objection so they continued to go up until his hands hit the base of her breasts. He was feeling a little bold and lightly cupped her breasts earning another groan from Fiona.

Fiona didn't know what to think of what Van was doing to her. Her mind was telling her to stop because of all that she had been taught, but her heart and body were telling her to continue. She had to admit that the pleasure that she was feeling from Van's caresses were better than anything that she had ever felt in her life.

Van pulled his hands back out and turned Fiona around very quickly smashing his lips against hers in a soul searing kiss. He felt her quickly respond and deepened the kiss. Her mouth opened up for him and his tongue dashed into her mouth where they battled with each other. Van hands rested on her hips and slowly came up taking her shirt along with it. Surprisingly enough Fiona just lifted her arms up allowing him and easier time to get it off.

Fiona was a very modest person and ended up trying to cover herself up but Van lightly pulled her arms away. "Don't, you look very beautiful," he said trying his best to make her feel right about this. This once was something he could only dream about, but he was wondering if it could possibly become reality.

The only thing that was stalling him from his main goal was her bra. He reached around while still sucking upon her neck. It unhooked itself and fell to the floor softly. Van stared at the beautiful mounds that were before his eyes while Fiona blushed a little but she enjoyed the stares that he was giving her.

Van came down and gave Fiona a peck on the lips before slowly kissing down, from her chin, to the nape of her neck, to just above her soft mounds. His lips finally came down upon one of the pebbly nipples causing a moan from Fiona. While his lips played with that one, one of his hands came up to rest upon the other. His hand sensually massaged it while his lips kissed all over the other one.

Fiona didn't know what took over her but she started to pull away at his shirt as well. When Van noticed this he pulled back causing Fiona to whimper at the loss of his lips. She quickly pulled it over his head. Fiona couldn't help but admire his well-chiseled chest the moment that the shirt came off.

Van smirked when he noticed Fiona stares before he went back to what he was doing before. He could feel Fiona's hands moving over his back and chest and enjoyed how gentle her touch was. He suddenly had an idea and smirked before releasing himself from Fiona's chest causing another whimper. "I have an idea," he said causing Fiona to look at him in confusion. Before she could react he scooped her up into his arms and headed in the direction of his room. "I am sure it will be more comfortable in there," he spoke with a genuine smile.

Fiona hated to do this but she felt like she had to. "Van… maybe we shouldn't do this," she said softly with a frown on her face while leaning her head into Van's shoulder. She felt him stop and she looked up. What she found strange was that he wasn't frowning but had a soft smile.

"If that is what you want than so be it. I will not try to force you into anything that you aren't ready for," he said before still walking. "Although, just because we won't be doing that doesn't mean we can't have fun," he said in reply to a look that Fiona was giving him when he continued to walk. He looked down and smiled when he saw her nod her head to at least this.

***End Flashback***

Van was suddenly broken from his thoughts when his wife elbowed him in the stomach. "What's up with you? You have been staring off into nowhere for a while now," Tiffany said staring very intently at him.

"It's nothing," said Van keeping his voice calm despite what he was thinking. `I shouldn't think about any of that. That was long ago and I am married to someone else now,' he tried to tell himself pushing the thoughts that he had been having into the back of his mind.

"Welcome, it is so good to meet the two of you," said a rather friendly voice from behind everyone causing all to turn around to face a man that appeared to be in his mid to late twenties. He had light brown hair that was mid-length and fell freely and brown eyes. He appeared to be about as tall as Van.

"This is my fiancé Ethan," Fiona said walking up to him and giving him a quick kiss before walking past him into the room that he had only moments before come walking out of.

"Greetings to the two of you. I have been very anxious to meet you. You must by Flyheight, my Fiona's new boss," he said walking up to Van and holding out a hand for him to shake.

Van didn't exactly like how he spoke of Fiona like a possession by using my before her name. Fiona wasn't his yet and he was talking like he owned her. He knew Fiona and knew that she couldn't be owned by anyone unless it was her husband but this man was only her fiancé for now. He just decided to put it off for the moment and held out his hand as well. "Yes, my name is Van Flyheight and this is my wife Tiffany," said Van shaking the man's hand.

"Come, why don't we step into the dining room and get something to eat because I am sure that the both of you are starving," Ethan said letting go of Van's hand and walking into the door that Fiona disappeared behind.

Fiona was already in there and waiting for them with her normal smile on her face. "Please, take a seat," said Ethan motioning towards any of the empty seat that was all around the table. "The food should be ready soon so why don't we get to know each other," he suggested taking the seat that was right next to Fiona.

Van took a seat that was across from Fiona and Tiffany took a seat next to Van and across from Ethan on the circular table that adorned the room. The room itself was very beautiful. There were many paintings of people and landscapes all over the room and the carpet was a beautiful blue color.

"This place is very beautiful. You must have a lot of money to afford someplace like this," said Van looking through the room. His wife nodded as well from her seat next to him.

"I actually inherited a great deal of money from my parents when they died a few years back. For the heck of it I do a lot of trading with many people which has only increased my fortune and given me many of the things that you see all around the room," Ethan said while Van and Tiffany looked all over the room. "You also seem well off as well considering that you own one of the biggest businesses around," he said placing his head in his hand and raising an eyebrow.

"I really had to more of work for mine. You are lucky to have been able to get yours in such an easy way. I kind of envy you," Van said mimicking the man's posture while still looking through the room.

"Yes I guess that I am really lucky. I have a lot of money, a beautiful home, and the most beautiful woman that I had ever set eyes on," he said with a smile to Fiona that caused her to blush a lot. "She is very beautiful but can be stubborn at times," he said eyeing Fiona.

"Like how she won't sleep with you?" asked Tiffany causing Van to slap himself in the head. He swore that she didn't know when to shut her mouth when she really needed to.

Ethan just chuckled a little bit in amusement. "Yes, I guess you can say that. She won't even let me sleep in the same bed. It is not my place to talk about our private life however," he said telling them politely to just drop the subject.

Van found it kind of amusing that he never had that problem. They slept in the same bed before although they never had sex. Van had a guess that this guy wanted to but Fiona just kept denying him. She probably thought that since he wanted it so badly that having them sleep in the same bed would only cause problems. Van used to always be content with just being by her side and being able to hold her close.

"To think that in only a few weeks time that I will be her husband though. That sends a great surge of pride through me. She is a really great woman," he said with a proud smile directed right towards Fiona.

"You had better try not to force anything or that will never happen though. The two of us went out in high school and I have learned never to pressure her at anything," said Van causing Ethan to look at Fiona who blushed a bit. Van figured that Fiona might have forgotten to tell him that little part of their past. He felt like hitting himself for bringing it up. He just thought that she would have told him about that.

"Is that so? I think that I would know what she needs right now though," Ethan said finding that he didn't like the way that Van talked. He didn't know why but the thought that his fiancé and her boss used to go out at one times sent anger coursing through his being. "Maybe I should go and see what is keeping the food. Fiona, will you please come with me because I need to talk to you?" he asked standing up.

Fiona merely nodded standing up as well and walking after him towards the doors to the room. She came to a stop when she saw that her fiancé was standing right outside of the door.

"Why didn't you tell me that your old boyfriend is your new boss?" he asked with a low tone in his voice. Needless to say he did not like the thought of her and her old boyfriend working together. He had heard about him from Fiona before and the type of relationship that they had. He did not want to think that he could try to take her for himself again.

"I didn't think that you would really care. What we had is and will be in the past," said Fiona fidgeting a little bit under his intense glare. Ok, it wasn't really the truth. She knew that he would overreact to it a bit so she decided to keep it from him for a while but Van just had to open his mouth.

"What do you mean you didn't think I would care? You are my fiancée and he is your old boyfriend who you happened to have a very serious relationship with!" he basically yelled although not loud enough for those on the other side of the door to hear. "I don't want you to work there anymore," he said all of a sudden.

"Forget it! I am not going to just quit a nice and well paying job just because you told me to," said Fiona angry that he could just tell her to do something like that. "You can just forget about it," she said turning around and walking in their original direction. He had never acted like that to her before. So she wasn't too mad but she wasn't going to just roll over because he commanded her to.

Ethan just rubbed his head because a headache was really starting to form in it. He didn't mean to overreact so badly but he would be damned if he allowed them possibly a second chance to be with each other.
