We laid on the hallway floor, panting. My cheeks burned and I was sweating badly. My legs were soaked from a combination of him and me and I couldn't be happier. "Well, that was unexpected." He breathes. His fingers graze my stomach and he lays on his side, propping his head on his arm. "Which part?" "I didn't expect to f*ck you so soon after you got here. I mean, I wanted to, but I didn't expect it." I laugh at him and stare up at his ceiling. "Your neighbors probably hate when I come by." "I wouldn't know. But it's spaced out, so they can deal with one weekend every other month of you moaning out my name." "I'm talking about all of the banging on the walls." "Maybe I should upgrade if it bothers you." I snort. "It doesn't bother me, I'm just worried about your neighbors." "If they have an issue they can tell me and we can promptly ignore it. I lov
All I feel is embarrassment as we make our way back to his apartment. I know he understands the line that was drawn tonight by his friends. No one would take him seriously if he truly wanted to be with me and I wasn't going to do that to him. By the time we reached his apartment, my mind was set that I couldn't give him more and I couldn't do this to myself anymore. I was torturing myself by coming to him all of these times and making myself believe that I could be more.Even with him telling me that I was all of these things, I couldn't, wouldn't, believe a word he said. He was just trying to make me feel better and I loved him for it, but enough is enough.Once inside, he tries to pull me to him and I grimace and back away. Better to start distancing myself now than waiting for this weekend to be over.He lifts his hands to me, his face pleading and I take a deep breath. "We shouldn't do this to ourselves anymore. It's not healthy."He drops his hands and then runs one over his hea
My eyes fluttered and I moan as I feel a jolt of pleasure pulsate up my body. I open my eyes and feel my n*pples harden as warm, thick hands move over my stomach and down my thighs, holding them open. I sit up and moan again, feeling his tongue move down in between my slick folds, his lips clamping down on my clit and sucking."Liam," I breathe and his olive eyes look up at me from in between my legs. "Yeah?" He moved further down, his tongue dipping into me and I throw my head back and move one of my hands to the crown of his head and the other to one of my breasts."F*ck," I moan. I dig my fingers into his scalp and he lets out a little chuckle as he devours me. My stomach tightens and I feel the coil of pleasure begin to unravel.He licks and sucks on my p*ssy with a fervor and just when I feel like I'm going to come, I feel his fingers move into me. He moves them into me slowly, curling them just right as he sucks my cl*t hard and I see stars
I cursed as I slipped on my slippers and ran to the door. I slipped on a piece of paper sitting on the floor in the hallway and rubbed my knee as I answered the front door.A delivery man stood in front of the door with a giant edible arrangement of fruit and a small box. I smiled at him and took my stuff into the living room and pulled out my phone. I read the card stuck on a pick in the arrangementThinking of you -LI grin from ear to ear and shake my head.I dial his number, knowing he probably won't answer since it's the middle of his work day. I had just gotten home from school and had changed when I got my arrangement."Hello, beautiful.""You sent me a fruit arrangement?""Yeah. I was looking through some of my pictures on my phone and saw the one you took of yourself and couldn't help myself.""What's in the box?""Open it."I open the small box and find a small white teddy bear that h
We talked daily about my past. He was a lot cheaper than a therapist, and probably the worst about cracking jokes, but opening up to Liam helped. Or at least it did up until a week before Thanksgiving. We hadn't gotten as far in my rambling for him to know the real significance of what Thanksgiving was to me, but I kind of fell into a depression. Hayley and Kimmy talked about Thanksgiving at work. I would see the stuff at stores and people wishing me a good time with my family. I smiled and thanked them and swallowed back all of the feelings. Even when Liam called, I couldn't get out of my head and I knew he could tell because he would ask for a video call since I wasn't speaking a lot.And I would just get dressed for work or lay in bed and let him watch me and try to coax me into speaking to him. I'd smile at him and tell him I was okay, but my heart wasn't.A couple of days before Thanksgiving, I dropped my phone in between my mattress and be
After Jordan left, I called Liam like I said I would and felt nervous as the phone rang. He answered quickly and I took a deep breath. "Hey.""Hey." His voice was tight and clipped. Not like his usual lazy greeting."I'm sorry." I whispered to him.He sighs heavily on the other end and I close my eyes. I snuggle into the couch and pull my blanket over myself tightly. While I had been okay with Jordan here, it was short-lived."I...It's not like you have anything to apologize for, Kelly. You're allowed to have the type of days that you don't want to talk to anyone, but...atleast a text back."The weariness in his voice is evident and I take a deep breath. "I know. I'm sorry. I didn't mean to make you worry. It was just...it wasn't a good day.""It hasn't been a good two and a half weeks for you, Kelly. You've been off and I know I'm not your boyfriend or anything, but I still worry. I...You scared the sh*t out of me."I furrow my eyebrows at him and press my lips together. "How did I
There was a time where I began loving the chaos at the Starr household. Children screamed and yelled and chased each other around and laughed and cried. Noel and Marlene would tell for the kids to calm down and stop teasing their sister or other little things like that. Now it was overwhelming to say the least. I dodged kids left and right, but yet they ran at me hugging me tightly and yelling at me about how much they have missed me.I did my best to keep my smile plastered to my face, even as Sarah watched me with jealousy clearly etched on her face. None of the kids were surrounding her, but I assumed they already got over the novelty of her being here."Kelly, do you like my dress?""Yes it's beautiful!""Kelly, is he your boyfriend?"I laugh and turn to look at Liam who nods fast."What about James?""James is married. To Sarah. She's pretty, isn't she?"James' five year old sister crinkled her no
Liam steps into the room, eyeing me as I sit up slowly. James walks out and I take a deep breath."Hey." I lick my bottom lip and give him a small smile. "Hey.""Are you okay?""Yeah.""You're not.""So why did you ask?""It's something I'm used to doing." He sighs and walks to the bed and sits down. He looks around and wrinkles his nose."So this is it, huh?""What?""James' bedroom from highschool."I nod and look around. "Yeah.""Is this how it looked back then?""Down to the very smell." I wrinkle my nose and lay my head on his shoulder. He wraps his arm around me and inhales deeply."I'm sorry about what happened out there.""You didn't do anything." I tell him, shrugging."I know but it still sucked. I know she's just a kid but damn..."I shrug again and let out a breath. At this point, my nose is stuffed up and my eyes feel
I have found myself to be more relaxed than I have ever been before and it all has to do with Liam. I go to school and because my schedule for work is so different now, I actually have time to study. I have lunches with him almost every day and when I'm off and he comes home, I'm deliriously happy.It feels almost too good to be true, which is the scariest part. I feel like here lately I've been too happy and something sh*tty is about to come around the corner and bite me in the ass. And I wait for it. I may be comfortable, but it doesn't mean that I'm not waiting for my happiness to turn to ashes in my mouth.Until then, I'm enjoying just being with him. When his stuff arrives from Boston I unpack most of it while he's at work after school. I hang up his expensive looking suits and fill the bathroom vanity with all of his toiletries. I'm happy seeing my space being shared by someone I care about. I'm excited and also scared of the future that is coming o
LiamIt's done. Everything to do with my parents and my old life is finished. I'm home. It's exactly how it feels, laying next to a sleeping Kelly, watching her chest rise and fall underneath her sheets.I have an important interview in the morning, but I'm too wired to sleep. I had been at the airport when I had talked to Kelly before she went to work and although I was tired as hell, especially after ravaging my beautiful woman, I couldn't sleep.Seeing her walk into the club in the lacy lingerie had me wired. She was sexy as hell, I knew that, but seeing her in action at work, even before I paid for six dances, there was no denying that she was a goddess. I smile at the memory of her shoving my money back in my hand as soon as we get home. "I didn't dance for you, so you take it back." "I don't care, Kelly. Keep it. It's from your job.""Ew. No. It makes me feel icky if you pay for me to do stuff for you. I like giving it to
Leaving Liam this time was hard. We were so close now, closer than ever to not have to do this anymore. But I ugly cried in the SUV when it was time to say goodbye. I mean, snot and tears and everything. It was bad. And Liam, who was usually so put together and happy go lucky teared up as well."It's okay, Kel. I'll be there soon. I've got some loose ends to tie up, but don't worry. I'll be in Vegas before you know it. I promise."And so I got on my plane alone and went back home. I started getting ready for Liam's arrival as soon as I did. I would go to class and instead of hitting the gym, I started organizing my closet and taking clothes and shoes out to donate. I made drawer space and cleaned out my spare bedroom to give him a special surprise.I ordered some office furniture so that if he wanted to, he could work from home as soon as he found himself something here. Did I tell him about it?No. I was afraid that if I did, he would tell me I was doing too much but I was just excit
Liam and I sat on the floor of his apartment with our gifts in front of us. After our laughing fit in the car, we came inside and neither of us really knew what to say or do.I felt guilty as hell for everything that happened at his parents house. I felt selfish because I didn't want to let him go and I felt responsible for him losing his job and his family. I just...I didn't feel good at all. I mean, I loved that he defended me. It made me feel..I felt loved. I felt like someone really cared for me and it felt like for the first time ever that I was chosen first.But of course, I felt guilty for wanting to be first. I chose my mom over James. Even when she was a raging b*tch, I still chose her. I wanted to choose James, but I didn't. Liam chose me. He chose me. I had no idea why. I mean, yeah, we were together, but...he was losing a lot. He didn't even have a job. He didn't have his parents anymore and it was all my fault. I stared down at my g
We went last-minute Christmas shopping. Despite me being here, his parents still wanted me over for Christmas because Liam flat-out refused to join them if I couldn't go, which made me feel amazing. Not.So even though I bought Lillian a cashmere sweater, I still had to buy it for his dad even though Liam kept telling me I didn't have to. I didn't care if they got me anything or not. I half expected to get sh*t in a box, courtesy of his mother, but it was okay. I would accept it gracefully, just to piss her off.And it wasn't like I was aiming to piss them off. I just wasn't going to give in to their bullsh*t wishes.On Christmas Eve we had dinner with his friends and had a white elephant gift party which was pretty fun. I enjoyed my time there, even though Vivian was there. She avoided talking to either of us the whole time which suited me perfectly. I even drank a little because I was feeling the holiday spirit. I came home with a cute set of Tiffany earrings because these rich peop
When we step off of the elevator I feel almost a permanent blush up my neck and cheeks. I'm not sorry for what we did but Vivian saw and from past experiences, she wasn't very good at keeping her trap shut.I walk into the event center with my arm in Liam's and thank God no one is really paying attention to us. Some people glance at us, but it seems like the drinks have been flowing and people are talking loud and gesturing with their hands. So that's a good sign.I look around and see Vivian sitting at a table with a drink in her hand looking forlorn and I smirk to myself. Serves her right for coming and looking for us. Thoughts have been going on in my head, wondering what she was doing, looking and all I could come up with was that she didn't expect me to be with him.I felt like she thought that maybe she could corner him, thinking I was in the bathroom or some stupid sh*t after what his dad told me. I probably would have been if Liam hadn't noticed I was upset right away. But Lia
LiamI looked around to see if anyone was watching us and took Kelly's hand in mine. Whatever one of my parents told her had her looking like she was going to be sick and I was not going to let that happen. It took me entirely too long to get Kelly to agree to be mine and I wasn't going to lose her so quickly.I took Kelly out of the event center and to the bank of elevators in the main lobby. We hopped into the elevators and I wrapped my arms around her after I clicked on the fortieth floor, where my office was located."You want to tell me what my parents said to you?" I nuzzle her neck, my favorite place to be and she sighs and leans her body back against mine and gives me more of her neck."No. Nothing you didn't prepare me for. It just sucks.""Who was it?""Your dad.""What did he say?"She takes a deep breath and I watch her chest rise and fall. She looks absolutely stunning in her red dress. The mom
I stare at myself in the mirror, feeling nervous. I run a hand down my red, satin dress and smile. My hair is up in an intricate bun that took me an hour to do and I did my makeup as perfectly as I could get it without looking like I over did it. I have smoky eyes and red lips. My dress drops down into a deep v in between my breasts and it hangs down to mid calf with a high slit up to my hip. It's sexy and formal and I hope it says that I don't give a flying f*ck what anyone thinks about me.I put on my matching red stilettos and turn to my side and grin.I walk out into the living room where Liam is waiting for me and watch his eyes dance and darken as I step into the room. He swallows hard and pulls at his bow tie, then runs both hands down his chest. He looks hot as hell in a tuxedo and my mouth goes dry. "Do we have to go?" He asks as he steps closer to me. His cheeks are red and I smile at him. "Yes." I raise my eyebrows at him. "We have to go." He grabs my hips and brings me
The days are passing by slowly. It's almost painful, but there's absolutely nothing to be done. So I go to class, go to the gym, go to work and do it all over again. Liam, since I officially decided to be his girlfriend, has been checking in on me nonstop. It's a complete one eighty from how James would do when he was in school. It didn't matter if he was in a meeting or doing important business man sh*t, Liam would call or text me just because he missed me. We would even just be on the phone while he did paperwork in his office, not speaking, but just being on the line.And every day he would tell me about how many companies he has reached out to. He hadn't told his parents yet because he wanted to make sure he had a job first before he dropped the bomb on them.But he also hinted that his father was getting suspicious. I was on the line with him one day when his dad walked into his office. I knew it was his father because he greeted him as such. I muted
