Why you may ask?
Because the man in question is currently standing at the end of the hallway.
What the hell is he doing here?
I let out a yelp and instead of running back into the safety of my room, I cover my not so bitty bits and turn.
“What the hell are you doing at home?” I yell out in a panic.
“Um, I,” Liam starts to say but then stops.
I turn slightly and I see that he’s still standing where he just was but this time his eyes focused on my ass and his mouth is opening to say something but nothing comes out.
“You weren’t supposed to be here until late.” I say, trying really hard not to freak out any more than what I already am. I finally come to my senses and run to my room, quickly closing the door behind me.
“We were able to leave early.” Liam says, his voice sounding closer. He must have finally found the will to move.
“It was a two hour flight. How early did you leave?”
“It's only an hour flight from Detroit, Chloe.” He says, his voice coming just outside my door.
“Your flight information said two.” I have no idea why I’m arguing with him about this.
Maybe because he saw you naked for the first time in seven and a half months.
“We’re in a different time zone, Chlo,” he says.
Of course, I would forget about stupid time zones when I’m trapped in an orgasm filled state of mind.
“Chloe, open the door.” He says a few seconds later.
“I’m good, thank you.” I say thinking that it might be a good idea to hide under my covers.
“I have something that you may want,” his voice is low and my body is liking it a little bit too much.
“Oh yeah? And what is that? A black hole to suck me in and erase my embarrassment?” I will never live this night down.
“Why don’t you open the door and find out, sweetheart?”
It’s the sweetheart that does it for me. With a reform sigh, I open the door just a smudge, enough to peek my head out and cover my body.
“What?”
He gives me a smirk to end all smirks. “Did you lose something?”
I don’t know what I’m more mortified about. The fact that he saw me naked when I was on the hunt for batteries for my toy. Or the fact that I dropped said toy and he found it and is now showing it to me?
Both are equally as embarrassing.
I try to reach for it but the man has height on me so he quickly takes it out of reach.
“Uh-huh. You’re going to have to come out here and get it.”
I don’t move. I can’t believe that he would do this to the mother of his child. Asshole.
“You’re seriously going to torture the woman that is carrying your baby?” I throw out very much wanting to stick my tongue out at him and act like a child.
Even more so when the asshole starts to grin.
