Chapter 16

Chapter Sixteen

We stood in front of my apartment door as I looked up at Louis shyly, he smirked as I fumbled with my keys.  Should I invite him, would that be weird for him to be here while I got ready for my date with Marcus?

“When you look at me like that, little one.”  He said grasping my hand with his free one, “It tests myself control.”

“What do you mean?”  I asked biting my lower lip, he let out a groan and stepped closer.

“You don’t know what that innocent gaze of yours does to me do you?”  He asked leaning closer to me.

“You could show me,” I said, my lips quirked up as I tried not to smile up at him.  

“Are you trying to get me to kiss you?”  Louis asked as he piercing gaze lowered to my lips.

“I might be,” I answered, bringing my hands up to the lapels of his jacket and I pulled him closer to me.

“You want a kiss?”  He smirked at me.

“Isn’t that the way to end a good date?”  I asked biting my lip as I looked up at him through lowered lashes, the heat of his breath playing across my lips.

“Just good?”  He asked, his hand snaking around my waist as he pulled my body flush against his.

“Very good,” I said closing the distance between us and bringing my lips to his, his lips moved against mine and I felt my insides melt.  I parted my lips let out a gasp his tongue snaked into my mouth and the throb of arousal hummed through my body.  Never in my life had I been this turned on by a kiss.

He pulled back and stared down at me with a smirk.

“You taste just as sweet as I imagined you would, go get ready little one.”  He said before kissing me softly and handing me my dress bag, he stepped back leaning against the wall watching as I unlocked the door and picked up my bag of shoes.  

I stepped through the door and looked back at him, unsure of what I should say.  I wanted to invite him in to finish what we had started, what I was beginning to feel like we had been dancing around.

“Louis-”  

“Another time, tonight you’re his.  Then you’re mine, ours.”  He said with a wink before he pushed off of the wall and turned to saunter down the hallway.  I watched him go before closing the door and taking the dress and shoes to my room.

I looked at the clock that rested on my nightstand, I had just enough time to shower and fix my makeup.  Stripping my clothing and tossed them into the plastic hamper as I walked to the bathroom.  I turned on the water and let it heat up as I pulled my hair into a bun, I had enough time to shower.  Not enough for the full prep of washing, drying, and styling my barely tamed hair.

I stepped into the shower, the hot water reminding me of the heat I felt from being pinned between the two dragons.  I bit my lip as it sparked the desire that I had already been feeling from earlier as I thought about what it would be like to shower with the two men.

Soaping up my loofah I ran it up my arms, I closed my eyes imagining it was Marcus.  His dark eyes hooded as he lathered my body with soap and my fingers explored the hard lines of his abdomen.  Feeling them contract and release under my light teasing touches,  I could almost feel the ghost of Louis’ lips playing over my neck.  

I brought the loofah to my breasts, the rough surface scraping across my hard nipples.  I couldn’t help the moan that tumbled from my lips as I thought about them both teasing me as they took turns alternating between rough pinches and gentle caresses.  

Moving the loofah lower and biting my lip I could take care of the problem I was having now or I could see if Marcus would tonight?

I wanted to see what would happen between us.  There was no denying that we were attracted to each other, I had seen the way he had looked at me earlier before we were interrupted.  I wanted, no I needed to see what would happen between us.  I could wait, I bit my lip finishing my shower as quickly as I could.  Turning off the water I stepped out of the shower and grabbed one of my thick white towels, quickly drying off.  

I hung my towel up and headed into my room.  Opening my dresser I pulled out a matching royal blue bra and panty set, knowing that it would contrast well with my pale skin.  I slipped them on and then went to the dress bag.

Unzipping the dark bag I pulled out the dress and then frowned, Louis that sneaky devil.  How had he snuck that last dress into the bag?

It was the last one I had tried on, I picked it up and took it to my closet.  Hanging it on the door, I frowned.  If he spoiled me like this on out first date, what would he do later?  Would he expect anything in return?

I bit my lip, shaking my head.  I hoped not, there was no way I could do the same for him. 

Walking over to the dress bag I pulled out the other dress and slipped it on, I pulled the zipper up as far as I could and frowned.  I would have to ask Marcus if he could help me with it.  Heading into the bathroom I pulled out the basket I kept my makeup in, I smoothed the light foundation over my freckled nose and cheeks with a slight frown.

They were one of the things that I didn’t like about my skin, the smattering of freckles on my face, shoulders, around the birthmark on my back.  I swiped the black mascara over my lashes, making them look longer and full, before finishing my look off with a swipe of dark red lipstick across my full lips.

I winked at my reflection as I pulled my hair out of it’s messy bun and ran a brush through the messy strands smoothing them out.  I pulled my hair into a loose ponytail before heading to my dresser and pulling out a pair of pearl earrings.  I held them up and looked into the mirror above my dresser, these would be perfect I thought with smile as I pushed the post through my ear lobes.  

The knock at the door was one that I knew was coming, I was still startled.  I walked to the front door a smile on my face as I peeked through the peephole at Marcus’ handsome face.
