He gently laughed, "Yes, you did."
Oh, fuck. Did she say that out loud? There was nothing left to do. She closed the distance between them, her lips crashing into his. His hand that had been cradling her head fisted and tugged at her hair. He opened his mouth, deepening the kiss between them. She let him take control. His tongue entered her mouth with delicious deliberation, and she couldn’t hold back her moan. He started to pull away, but she chased his mouth, not ready for this to end.
He remained close, pulling his mouth away and leaning his forehead against hers. "Please tell me you live close by."
"I'm five minutes away."
"Too far," he said, his breath against her cheek. "Get there faster."
Pulling her head away, she put the car into reverse and tried not to squeal out of there. Liam's possessive hand rested firmly on her thigh, as if to remind her of his intentions, if she were to forget them again.
They pulled up to her house. It was a little run-down, two-story house. It was the house she had grown up in. She and Josh had lived here together their entire lives until Josh moved out a few months ago. She was happy for Josh, but she did miss him. Maybe that was why she had been pulling away. But that was a thought for later. Right now, her thoughts were a little preoccupied with the hand on her thigh that was slowly venturing higher.
"Well, this is it. I'm sure you are used to much nicer accommodations," she said, the nerves sinking back in as hard as she tried to fight them.
"Lexi, I wasn't always who I am now. I've only been this guy for the past five years. I spent much more time as a guy growing up in a house not much bigger than this one with my sister. We have much more in common than you seem to think." He reached for her face again and cupped her jaw as he put another sizzling kiss on her lips. "Now can we please go inside? I can’t wait another minute to have you alone."
She opened her door while his lips were still on her. Soon, his kiss trailed down her jaw and neck until he was kissing that spot where her neck met her shoulder, driving her over the edge. "Let's go in."
They both got out of the car and made their way up the stairs to the front door. Lexi was trying to unlock the door as Liam's hand rested on the small of her back. She was still pinching herself. Liam James was about to come into her house. LIAM JAMES was about to come into her house. The house that was in desperate need of sprucing. It felt a lot like she did, stuck in time.
"Are you okay?" he whispered in her ear, sensing her apprehension.
"Yep. I'm fine. Let's do this." She unlocked the door and they walked in. Her nerves bubbled under the surface until Liam spun her and slammed the door behind them as he pulled her close. His mouth connected with her, and she instantly forgot to be nervous. The only emotion there was any room for in this moment was lust, pure lust.
His mouth ravaged her, and he sucked on her tongue. His hand slowly let go of her waist and began to explore the rest of her body. They roamed her back, still holding her close. She bit his bottom lip and he moaned. She had elicited a moan from Liam James. The thought of that did things to her. The feel of his erection pressing into her belly did things to her too. Panty ruining things. She hadn't had sex in a long time... too long to figure out at this moment, but this was one hell of a way to break a dry spell.
She pulled back in an attempt to catch her breath, and to look at him. He was so very nice to look at.
"I'm going to need you naked and on a bed. Right now."
"Follow me," she said in the sultriest tone she could muster and led him to her bedroom.
Walking away from him and leading him into her room gave her time to stop and think about one very important element that was missing from tonight. They got into her room, and she opened her bedside drawer hoping for a miracle. Crap.
"Ummm Liam, you wouldn't happen to have a condom?"
His face fell, "No. I do back at the inn, but not on me."
"Well shit, should we go get one?"
"No," he said, his mouth finding her neck again.
"No?"
"If you’re willing, there are many other things we can do to bring each other pleasure. We'll have a condom next time."
"Next time?"
"Next time. I'm here for a couple more days and I plan for a lot more next times before I leave." At that he pulled away and took his shirt off. She had seen him with his shirt off on plenty of pictures from her limited google search, but it was nothing compared to a shirtless Liam James here in her room. She couldn't look away. Reaching out she traced one of his many tattoos, this one was a black swallow that sat right above his pec.
He put his hand over hers and held it there. She could feel his heart pounding beneath. It matched the rhythm of her own heart pounding away in her chest. With his other hand he cupped her face, and this time pressed a gentle barely there kiss to her mouth. This tenderness was not what she was expecting from their encounter, but she liked it all the same.
His hand drifted down until he gently tugged at the hem of her shirt. "May I?" he asked. She nodded and he lifted the hem and dragged it up and over her head. By the time she was free of her shirt she saw his eyes glazed over with lust staring at her chest. She reached behind her back and undid the clasp of her bra and slowly let the straps fall over her shoulders before discarding the garment entirely.
"You are so beautiful." His hand came up and held her breast, gently pinching the nipple between his fingers. She turned and Liam’s fingers found the zipper on the back of her skirt. He pulled it down. Lexi faced him and shimmied the skirt over her hips. He stepped back and looked at her, his hands undoing the belt of his pants. Something about the way he looked at her made her want to cover up. Looking at him, at his perfection, only made her more aware of the belly roll her underwear was covering, and the stretch marks that lined her belly, thighs and breasts. She wanted to dive under the covers or turn out the lights but settled for moving her arms across herself.
"Don't you dare," he said, pulling her arms wide and taking her in. "You’re perfect and I can’t wait to taste you." Stepping out of his pants he sat down on the bed and positioned her between his legs. His erection straining against his boxer briefs was enough to help her regain her confidence. Then his mouth found her nipple, and everything fell away. All she felt was his hands exploring her body and his mouth fully drawing her nipple into his mouth.
