The Boy Who Sneaks in My Bedroom Window (24 page)

He laughed.
“Nah, it’s not really my thing,” he teased, turning his nose up and
shrugging.

I laughed and
slappe
d him playfully on the shoulder.
“Asshole,” I muttered jokingly, making him laugh harder. I pushed
him down onto the sofa and laid on top of him, kissing him. By the
time I pulled away, we were both breathing heavy. He was staring at
me lustfully and I could feel he was aroused already. “Liam, just
because I’m going on the pill, doesn’t mean that I’m ready for
anything more. You know that, right?” I asked, grimacing, hoping I
hadn’t got his hopes up and now he was going to be expecting
sex.

He smiled and
tucked my hair behind my
ear. “Angel, I
know that. It’s fine. We’ll go as slow as you want. As long as I
still get to do this.” He pulled my face back down to his again. I
smiled against his lips and felt happier than I had been in years,
he was just too sweet. I just prayed I would be ready soon, before
he got bored or desperate and went chasing after that skank
Jessica.

After making
out and cuddling for about an ho
ur we
heard a car pull up. “Damn it, that must be Jake’s ride,” I
whispered, trying to push myself away from Liam. I sat up,
smoothing down my hair, hoping that it didn’t look like we’d been
fooling around for the last hour.

Liam laughed
and p
ulled me back down on the couch with
him. “Jake can handle this. Come on, he has to get used to it
eventually. He’s going to see us kiss from time to time,” he said,
chuckling against my neck. I smiled as I weaved my fingers into his
hair, I heard the front door open and Liam snapped his head up to
look, a small smile playing on the edge of his lips. I actually
think he was enjoying teasing Jake.

“
Oh come
on
, guys! Seriously, what did I say this
morning about PDA’s?” Jake whined, slinging his keys on the
table.

Liam groaned
and rolled his eyes as he sat up
, pulling
me up to sit next to him. “Better?” he asked, grinning
wickedly.

Jake sighed
and rolled his eyes
too. “I’ll get used
to it, I guess,” he grumbled. Liam grinned at me and I couldn’t
help but smile back. He threw his arm over my shoulder and held my
hand with his other arm, playing with my fingers.

Jake came in
and plopped down on the sofa opposite
,
looking at us grumpily. I laughed at his disgruntled expression and
stood up. “I’m going to go do my homework. You boys can entertain
yourselves for a while, right?” I smirked at them both in turn. I
had a feeling that they needed a little ‘boy bonding time’ after
the revelations last night. Jake and Liam were best friends after
all.

“
Yeah. Want
to play Halo, Jake?” Liam asked excitedly. Jake jumped up to set it
up and I smiled to myself happily. Yep, they were back to normal. I
grabbed the brown bag and made my way to my bedroom, giggling as
Liam slapped my ass and whistled at me. I’d already done my
homework, so I decided that a nice long soak in the bath would be
good. I ran a bath and added a lot of bubbles, before grabbing a
book and settling into the tub. I lost myself in the
story.

I was so
engrossed in the story that I didn’t hear the door open.
“Now
that’s
sexy,” Liam purred from right next to me.

I screamed
and almost dropped my book in the water. “Shit! You scared the crap
out of me
, Liam!” I cried, trying to slow
my heart that was trying to break my ribs. I brought my knees up to
my chest and tried to cover myself up so he couldn’t see anything
inappropriate. Lucky for me, there were still quite a few bubbles
which helped.

He
laughed
. “Sorry. Hey, can I get in?” he
teased as he knelt down next to me and put his fingers in the bath.
He pulled them out quickly and shook his head. “Never mind. That's
freaking freezing!” He frowned and dried his hand on the
towel.

“
Liam, will
you get out of here? This isn
’t funny!” I
cried, blushing.

He grinned
his cocky little smile and bent over to kiss my lips just for a
split second before he turned and walked ba
ck for the door. “I was kidding. I didn’t actually realise
you were in here. You should get out though, that water is really
cold. Have you been in there all this time?” he asked, shaking his
head.

“
It is a bit
cold,” I admitted. Now that I was out of the story I didn’t even
realise that the bath
was stone cold and
I had goosebumps all over me. Liam smiled and turned to go back to
my bedroom, closing the door to give me some privacy. I pulled the
plug out and threw my book onto the side as I stood up. Grabbing
the towel off of the side and wrapped it around myself tightly. I
realised as I climbed out of the tub that I didn’t bring any
clothes in here to change into. I was actually really cold now and
my teeth were chattering. I couldn’t stay in here all night, I’d
just have to go and get some pyjamas. It was no big deal; Liam had
seen me in a towel before.

As I walked
into my bedroom I noticed that he was lounging on my bed. “Hey,” I
muttered, feeling a little uncomfortable as I pulled on a pair of
shorts under the towel.

“
Jeez
, Angel, you could have got
hypothermia or something,” he scolded, looking at me worriedly. He
grabbed my hand and pulled me to the bed, sitting me on the edge as
he went into the bathroom, coming back with another towel. He
rubbed my arms and shoulders, drying me quickly.

I was glad I
decided not to wash my hair, instead
,
putting it in a messy bun, otherwise that would have made me even
colder. He wrapped his arm around me, putting each of my prune like
finger tips into his mouth, warming them one at a time. Oh my God,
that’s sexy! I bent my head and kissed him, seeming to catch him by
surprise. After a second or two he responded, kissing me back. I
sucked on his lip softly and he opened his mouth, allowing me to
slip my tongue in. He moaned in the back of his throat and I
wrapped my arms around his neck, gripping his hair roughly, tugging
slightly. He pulled me closer to him, deepening the kiss. After
what seemed like forever, but still wasn’t long enough, he pulled
away breathing heavy. His lips didn’t leave my skin though,
instead, he kissed down my neck, sucking on the skin near my
collarbone, making me gasp and squirm.

I was still
freezing cold and my teeth started to chatter again, ruining the
moment. He pulled back
, laughing. “Let’s
get you under the covers and you can get warm.” He pulled off his
t-shirt in one easy movement and I couldn’t help but stare at his
sculpted chest. I felt movement and my vision went black for a few
seconds, interrupting my ogling. I smiled as I realised he’d pulled
his t-shirt over my head.

“
Liam, if you
wanted to make me hot, all you need to do is take your clothes
off,” I purred, biting my lip and looking over his chest and abs,
wanti
ng to run my tongue over
them.

He laughed
and wrapped his arms around me. “Angel, you couldn’t possibly be
any hotter,
trust me. That would be
illegal,” he replied, kissing me again. I pulled the damp towel off
and threw it on the floor as he picked me up. I wrapped my legs
around his waist as he carried me up to the pillow end and pulled
the covers back, climbing into the bed with me still attached to
his front like a baby monkey. He pulled the covers completely up
over our heads and pulled back to talk to me in the semi darkness.
“I missed you tonight. Why didn’t you stay and play with us?” he
asked sulkily.

“
I thought
yo
u and Jake needed a little time
together. You haven’t really spoken to him on your own since he
found out about us. He’s still your best friend, so you’re just
going to have to find a balance. You can’t spend all of your time
trying to get in my pants, you know,” I joked.

“
But I love
trying to get in your pants,” he whined playfully, giving me the
puppy dog face
, making me giggle. I was
warming up now. His body heat pulsing into me and our hot breaths
tangling under the duvet, made it seem almost steamy under there.
Then again, that might have just been the passion I felt burning
inside me. “I guess you’re right. Jake was fine tonight, he
actually said it was nice to see you happy, which I took all the
credit for of course,” he said cockily.

“
All the
credit? Wow, that’s an inflated ego you have right there,” I
teased, smiling at the double meaning, about the bulge in his jeans
that was
pressing onto me. He laughed and
stroked the side of my face with the back of his
fingers.

“
You’d better
not be naked with my little sister, James
!” Jake growled warningly from near the door.

Liam pushed
the cover back off of our heads, grinning guiltily.
“Jake
, dude, a little more warning would
be nice.”

“
Oh
, Jake, get a grip! What do you
want? And have you ever heard of knocking?” I asked, pushing the
covers back further so he could see I had a t-shirt on.

“
I
knocked
. You just didn’t hear through all
the flirting,” he replied, smirking. We all laughed and Jake shook
his head. “Anyway, I just wanted to tell you, Ambs, that Mom’s
coming home on Sunday.”

I
grinned;
I hadn’t seen my mom in three
weeks. “Yeah? Awesome!” I cried happily.

Jake nodded,
his smile matching mine. “Yeah
. OK well,
I’m going to bed. Keep the noise down in here; I don’t want to hear
anything.”

I laughed and
couldn’t resist teasing him some more. “Jake, you
m
ight want to borrow my iPod, we’re
warming up for the bet,” I joked, winking at him.

Liam burst
out laughing and Jake just glared at me, shaking his head
disapprovingly, closing the door behind him. “Angel, you are just
too funny,” Liam said,
kissing down my
neck.

“
Shut up,
JAMES,
” I replied, mimicking Jakes tone
jokingly.

Chapter 14

I woke in the morning with a huge smile on my face.
The sun was shining, the birds were singing, and I had woken up
next to the world’s most sexy boy, who just so happened to be in
love with me. I smiled against his arm that I was laying on and
pressed back into him, feeling his hard chest press into my back
where he was spooning me.

“
Liam?” I
whispered, tur
ning my head in his
direction.

His arms
tightened around me as he slo
wly opened
his eyes. “Hey,” he mumbled, lifting his head so he could kiss me.
“Wow, I love waking up knowing that you’re finally mine.” He laid
his head back down and sighed contentedly. “So, can we tell people
we’re dating today?” he asked happily, grinning from ear to
ear.

“
Um…. no. Not
today. I still need to do a bit more prep work on that,” I replied,
running my hand down his chest, tracing the bumps of his
muscles.

He groaned.
“By, ‘prep work’, you don’t mean you’re going to flirt and make me
horny as hell again like yesterday, do you?” he asked, looking at
me pleadingly.

“
You’ll have
to wait and see, won’t you? Oh, and I give you my permission to
touch me a little today if you want,” I offered casually. I turned
to face him, propping my head up on my elbow so I could see him
better.

“
Mmm….. touch
you
, like this?” he purred. His fingers
trailed across my body slowly, from my face, down my neck, across
my breasts and stomach, finally settling just on the inside of my
thigh. His hand was so close to my core that I couldn’t stop the
little moan that escaped my lips.

He traced his
fingertips across my leg, making
me
whimper. Damn, I wanted him so badly but I just couldn’t, not yet.
“Don’t, Liam,” I begged. I said the words but I moved my hips
unconsciously, trying to get closer to his hand.

He laughed,
putting his lips so they are almost touching mine
. “Promise you won’t tease me too hard today at school,” he
murmured against my lips as he moved his hand away to the outside
of my thigh.

“
I won’t
tease you too much. I can’t promise you won’t get hard,” I teased,
twisting his words.

He crashed
his lips to mine and I could feel he was smi
ling. “You’re such a damn tease! I don’t even think you
realise what you’re doing to me,” he growled, kissing my neck
gently. Jeez, I knew exactly what I was doing to him, I could feel
it!

I kissed him
back passionately and he pulled away after a couple of
minutes
, just as I was getting really
into it. “I better go.” He kissed me again as he climbed out of the
bed.

“
OK. I’ll see
you in a bit,” I replied, watching as he pulled on his clothes. He
winked at me as he climbed out of my window, heading back to his
house. Even though Jake knew, Liam still needed to keep up the
pretense for his parents. He couldn’t exactly been seen leaving
through the front door when he was supposed to be in his
bed.
