All Chapters of ECHOES OF LOVE: Chapter 181 - Chapter 190

Jordan stared at his computer screen barely seeing anything, he was so lost in his thought that for a moment he didn’t remember where he was and just what he was doing, it’s been over two months since he moved here to California and even though he wasn’t in his best right now, he was actually doing better than he would have thought, leaving New York was the best decision for him, even though his parents have been pressing him to come back home for Christmas celebrations, he just wasn’t in the mood to celebrate especially not in a city that he did his best to forget about.The past two months here have been busy for him, he didn’t let his sadness weigh him down and unlike the office in New York, he didn’t get any pity stares here which help him a lot, the people here were friendly too and he was able to hang out with them a couple of time, not to mention he enjoyed working here.Of course, he still gets sad when his mind went to Liam, he hasn’t heard from him or his parents since he ca

Liam kept cursing at himself as he drove towards his parent's house on Christmas morning, he should have just remained in his house and spent Christmas on his own but he didn’t want his parents to feel alone on Christmas Day, even though they rarely get along all through the years, he made sure to get them presents for Christmas and he felt like not going would make them sad, their relationship was still tainted in a lot of ways but he had tried to build back what he had with them.He had called at their house two months ago and had a talk with them, they told him they didn’t love him any less but just felt they had to let him get what he wants for once, he told them he didn’t like that they shut him out and his mom had told him that it was how they felt each time he shut them out too, he had apologized to them and they were cool but they no longer taunt him with calls or their presence that he began to miss them and miss the times they were all over his business, when they had called

Liam stared at the man in front of him, he wasn’t even smiling but Liam felt his heart race, maybe it was the alcohol in the cake he took, since he wasn’t a drinker, anything could make him tipsy, or probably the glass of wine he had before he started eating, whatever it was, it wasn’t doing him any good, he should have stayed away from anything that contained alcohol, or he should have not shown up here in the first place, but how was he supposed to know that the man would be here and that he will be affected by him? No way for him to have known that, why was he looking at him too, and with those longing eyes, it made it impossible for him to look away and everything else in the room faded away and it was just them, looking at each other with his heartbeat increasing by the seconds.“Liam, son? Are you okay? You look pale?”His mom asked, touching him and shaking him out of his trance, he broke eye contact with Jordan and looked at his mom, forcing a smile.“I am fine mom, you don’t

Jordan couldn’t believe what was happening, Liam was kissing him, this has to be a dream, he just knew that the whole shit was a dream, no way was Liam’s lips against his asking for entrance, he knew he shouldn’t allow him even if it was a dream but he missed Liam so much, even though he tried not to admit it to himself, he missed his touch, missed kissing him.Okay to be clear, he started the kiss but he didn’t think he would let him kiss him nor did he expect Liam to take over the kiss.All night, it has been pure torture being in the same house with Liam and having him not say a word or even acknowledge him, he couldn’t even say hi or make eye contact with him, it had gotten to the point that Jordan just needed to get out of the house only for Liam to follow him and start asking him questions, from the moment he had arrived, all Jordan wanted to do was throw himself at him, he missed him so much and nothing has even changed for him, Liam was still the same person for him.The kiss?

“Did you guys fight? Were you being rude and mean to him again?”His mom asked after Jordan and his parents left, he didn’t know why his parents would think he was the one at fault and why did he even let them sit him down by this time of the night to question him. He should just leave, he still had time, it was just past eleven and it was Christmas Eve so people would still be up and about.After Jordan left him, he had walked back down to meet his parents walking out with his mom glaring at him.“Are you not going to answer my question, Liam? He was cool and smiling until you went to meet him when he stepped out, then he came back and he had this sad look, what did you say to him this time?”She asked in an annoyed voice.“What makes you think I said something to him that made him like that?”He asked even though he knew he did say something, he couldn’t blame himself, he hadn’t expected to like kissing him that much and had been thrown off balance by it, not that it was any good of
