This is a damn good story all around! Funny, witty, sexy and the characters are so likable! Wait, let me back up a bit before I go into full suck up mode…
This is on of those fics that has you from chapter one. Originally, this was a one-shot, so you are immediately thrown into the mind and attraction between E&B. At first Bella is shy with Edward, her spin class instructor, cause we all can get that way around guys we like (plus, it’s Edward, who wouldn’t turn into a blubbering mess in front of him?). Then after class, girl’s in the sauna with that delicious boy and in a moment of bravery (a what-the-hell-why-not moment, gotta love those) she takes the plunge…and it’s sooooooooo good!
Edward’s hands slowly migrated to my sides. I sensed his hesitancy of what to do with them as he traced circular patterns on my ribs, his fingertips moving closer and closer to my breasts. As our kisses grew in intensity, I took his hands in my own and placed them right on my tits because that’s exactly where I wanted them. My boldness obviously startled Edward because he broke our kiss and sucked in a sharp breath.
“Bella, are you sure you’re okay with this?” He questioned.
“Would I have put your hands on my tits if I didn’t want them there, Edward?” I smiled.
And even though things between E&B get complicated later in the fic, it remains sexy and funny as hell. Stephk0525 (one of the coolest gals in fandom history, btw) has the ability to pack a crapload of humor and pop culture references into this fic are awesome. It’s insane how much pop trivia this chic must know, makes me want to preview her brain on a big screen while drinking rum…or martini’s…no, no, rum would work best!
Oh, and did I also mention this is my favorite Daddy C ever? Wanna know why!?
I opened the door slightly, only to find my father doing this weird sort of strut, which made him look like he’d thrown his hip out, as he continued to sing the chorus of ‘Pimp Juice’ over and over. I seriously considered pulling my phone out to record this shit as future leverage if I ever needed it.
Instead, I cleared my throat. “Ahem, Pimp Daddy C, maybe next time you want to wait until we’re on the elevator before you decide to bust a move, or get your swerve on, or whatever the hell it was you were just doing,” I teased. “By the way, since when do you listen to Nelly?”
Love this fic, love the writing, love how things are progressing between E&B and I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE Spinward! Has so be one of my favorite Wards ever! Sexy, smart, cool, funny & a little bit of a bad boy, but with such a big heart! *lick*
Ah hell, I could go on & on, but why don’t you just trust me instead and go read it. You know you want to!
Don’t You Wanna Take a Ride with Me? is a super funny fic. I was genuinely giggling out loud through so much of this story. I could quote it endlessly, but from chapter 12, I think this was my favorite:
“Whoa, whoa, easy there, can you take a breath for me please? Embrace the oxygen. Come on, in and out, in and out.”
I genuinely enjoyed this story all through every chapter, and I can’t wait to see how Bella and Spingod work things out. They are in a tenuous state right now, but things are looking up — and I don’t just mean Edward’s cock. Although Chapter 11 does see a lot of that.
Stephk0525 really has written a story that is engaging and easy to read, but you get hooked and invested in the characters quickly. Bella is so certain, despite the fact that she seems to take care of herself and attend a weekly spin class, and has generally okay self-esteem, that she is undeserving of Edward. From the very start she thinks of their interaction as a crazy situation that certainly won’t continue. She perplexes me, this Bella.
Carlisle is hilarious, there are just no other words for him. Emmett is sweet and I’m curious to see how things play out with Rose, since she doesn’t appear to be a viable love interest.
If you need a laugh, or just want some juicy lemons, give this story a try — you won’t regret it. I’m eager to go back for a re-read and leave Steph some much-deserved review love.
Way before Stephk0525 agreed to disagree on the merits of Mike or DaddyC, I started reading this story. Originally a one-shot for the Indies First Time Writer’s Challenge, this was one that I really, really hoped would be continued. The girl doesn’t disappoint.
Like RoseArcadia said, this is a damn good story all around. I like that it’s funny, but not ridiculous. I like that it has an actual plot. And i like that sparks fly from the very beginning.
“Here you go. The water is nice and cold.” Edward paused, looking at me rubbing my shoulder. “Are you hurt?”
“I sort of have a perpetual knot right here that I can’t ever get to,” I said with a gesture. “It must be the way I sleep, I don’t know, but this dammed thing bothers the hell out of me sometimes.”
“Would you like me to try and work on it for you? I can be pretty good with my hands, or so I’m told.” And then he flashed me the sexiest grin I had ever seen in all my life.
Edward is offering to put his hands on me? Edward wants to rub me? What are the odds that this gym has a portable O2 tank? I am failing miserably at converting oxygen to carbon dioxide at this juncture.
“Well, are you sure you don’t mind? I mean that would be great, thanks,” I somehow manage to stammer.
“I offered, didn’t I?” he quirked. Resuming his position leaning against the back corner wall, Edward propped one leg on the bench and rested the other leg on the floor. He motioned for me to come and sit in front of him. It did not escape me that although my back would be turned to him, I would be nestled in between the very thighs that I had been fantasizing about not all that long ago.
Ironically, the tension in my body multiplied a hundred-fold as I sat down in front of Edward. My brain kept repeating to my lungs breathe, Bella, breathe over and over again. My body gave a slight joltas Edward placed his hands on my shoulders, kneading gently and causing my body to rock ever so slightly.
“Wow! You are so tense, Bella. These knots you have in your shoulders are horrible.”
Edward increased the pressure of his ministrations, which caused me to lurch forward, tensing up even more.
“Bella, you really need to try to relax if this is going to do you any good,” Edward advised. “Here, I want to try something. Do you trust me?” he asked.
“I guess I do, yeah. Why? What did you have in mind?”
Trust me. This is one ride that you wanna take. Right now.
