“This,” he whispers, his lips brushing against my skin with each word. “This is what I’m thinking. This is what's going through my head." “Liam,” I moan, my desire raging out of control.

View MoreDays roll by and Friday finally comes like a frenzy. During some of my midnight chats with Liam during the week, I tried delving into my urge of asking him about the issue that is vividly clouding his mind, but I kicked against it. Since I have asked him before and he decided to cover it up, I should probably leave him at his own pace. I believe that when he is ready to tell me, that he will and also, I don't want to come off as disturbing.As planned, Alvin and Liam are supposed to come pick me up since the three of us are going to Jason's party together. But when I come out from the house after hearing the blaring of the car horn, I see only Alvin in the car."Where is Liam?" I ask, pausing in my steps. I look through the car's window but I don't see Liam."Wait, he didn't tell you too?" Alvin ask, looking surprised."Tell me what?""This dude is really fucking unbelievable sometimes. He came up with some weird reason to go ahead of us to the party first. Something about Jason askin
When I walk back into the field, I see Liam, Alvin and the rest of the team taking a break. Maybe they were actually on a break.No wonder John left.Tasha and Beverly roll their eyes at me as I walk past them. I simply ignore them and continue to walk towards the spot where I was seated before.I check my watch. Just ten more minutes to go. At that point, I hear the coach whistling, clapping his hands."Alright boys. Back into the field. Five more minutes and we are done!" He shouts, clapping harder to hurry their lazy asses from their sitting spots. As they run back into the field, Alvin spots me and waves at me. I wave back, expecting Liam to spot me too since he was running back into the field alongside Alvin and must have noticed Alvin waving.To my disappointment, he doesn't. And to my dismay, my gut is telling me that he probably did that on purpose or because his mind is still not in his body. Afterall, he has been all silent and distant since today.The rest of the other boys
The coach's whistle blares in the air, kicking off the team's training. I watch as beads of perspiration run down Liam's forehead, sweat soaking some parts of the top of his basketball jersey. Even as I watch him training with his teammates, I can still tell that he isn't fully concentrating. As captain of the basketball team, he should be training harder, but right now, his ball throws are always missing the net, and his defenses are weak."Liam! Focus!" The coach shouts, clapping his hands to encourage him and the rest of the team to train harder.On the opposite side of the field, Natalie and her cheerleading squad are training as well. Their short pink pleated skirts almost reveal their pink shorts, shorts that almost look like panties. Beverly turns on their training song and increases the volume. The music, 'When I Grow Up' by The Pussycat Dolls, blasts from the mp3 player as they line up in a zigzag formation, with Natalie at the head of the line. "Alright girls! We start in Th
After settling down in class, Miss Evans, our English teacher, walks in. I don't know how long she must have stood before the board, writing, but I know that my mind is kind of travelling else where at the moment."You all have twenty minutes to go through the essay in page 84 and afterwards answer the questions. Your time starts now." She orders.When I open my English textbook to page 84, my eyes seem to blur for a few seconds before finally becoming vivid enough to grasp the words written on the page. Throughout the entire twenty minutes that Miss Evans gave us to read the essay and answer the questions, I found myself fighting to concentrate.But how can I concentrate when my mind keeps on getting pricked by those words written in that folded paper I found in my locker?The words written on that paper keeps on playing in my mind, making me wonder how my suspect had the nerve to write and send those words to me."Ten minutes more." Miss Evan calls out. I feel my brain trying to do a
The weekend goes by with Liam and I texting and calling each other at almost every hour and minute of every day.When Monday morning finally comes, it dawns on me that another new school week is about to start. After getting ready for school, I join Liam and Alvin in the car, sitting on the passenger's seat at the front of the car. We drive to school. As expected, Al continues his love gist to us about Sophia and tells us how he is planning on asking her to be his girlfriend. "Vee, I need your help. What do you think? Should I ask her out or should I wait a little bit longer? I am kinda scared that she might not accept me if I ask her to be my girlfriend."Al? Scared? Oh Wow! That is new!I turn behind me to look at Alvin. He must be joking."Scared?! Al, aren't you, like, one of the kings of the wooing kingdoms? Why are you scared?" I find myself asking, obviously surprised at him for saying that he is afraid."It's just. . . . .I like her so much. She is different Vee. And I don't
Our drive back home is spiced up with 'Burn' by Ellie Goulding playing from the car's radio. After about fifteen to twenty minutes later, we arrive in front of my house. I glance at my phone's clock.It's 10:25pm. We are right before the time.Liam opens the car door for me and I alight. He escorts me to the front of our house. When we get to the entrance, we stop and face each other. He gives me the gift bag containing the champagne given to us by the restaurant."Let this serve as the cherry on the cake of our date tonight." He teases. I laugh and collect the bag from him. I know this might probably feel or sound childish or clingy, but if there is a way I can just stuff him into my purse and take him upstairs to my room to spend the night with me, I will gladly take it. He leans close to me and plants a soft kiss on my forehead. "Goodnight baby," he says softly, tucking my hair behind my ear.Baby. The word is just perfect and so sexy coming out from his lips. It sounds a hundred t
After swimming some more in the water, Liam and I return back to the side of the beach where Liam had parked his car. I take out two towels from the box in the car and use one to wipe my hair and body to prevent catching a cold. After that, I join Liam where he is seated at the open back of his car, which is a Toyota Tacoma pickup. I give him the other towel since he hasn't wiped his body yet. I wonder how he is not afraid of catching a cold."Thanks." He collects the towel from me and starts to wipe off the water from his body. As the water droplets from his hair fall to his torso as he wipes his hair, I find myself flicking my tongue over my lips. The water droplets trail down his stomach and disappears into the waist band of his boxer briefs. Right now, it is hard for me to concentrate on anything else around us but him, especially when he is this half naked in front of me. It feels so good whenever Liam pleasures me, but right now, I want to pleasure him too and make him moan my n
We start down a gravel road, the quiet night air around us only disturbed by the noise of the little stones crunching beneath the car tires. I suddenly realize the path we are driving on and turn to Liam."Is this–""Yes Vee. I knew you would remember once we hit this road."I gape my mouth in surprise and turn to look out my window, already seeing the beach up ahead. I can already hear the water waves lapping on each other as our car finally arrives to the open air atmosphere of the beach.Liam stops the car and parks it at a side of the beach. He opens the door for me as usual and I come down. There are yellow wildflowers across the landscape and the ocean breeze is fresh and perfectly cool on my skin. "So would you mind a swim?" Liam asks. I watch him pulls off his overcoat and leather shoes."Wait. You brought me here to swim?" I ask, laughing. A deep part of me actually wants to hop into the water."Yeah. I kinda planned our date to be formal and fun at the same time. Back at t
