The Boy Who Sneaks in My Bedroom Window (14 page)

“
How about
seven thirty?” he suggested, pulling me towards him. I set the
alarm and put the phone on the floor where I could reach it easily.
He draped his leg over mine and wrapped his arms tightly around me,
our noses were almost touching.

I
smil
ed and kissed him lightly.
“Goodnight, Liam.” I closed my eyes and sighed contentedly, feeling
safe and secure in his arms.

“
Goodnight,
my beautiful girlfriend,” he whispered,
kissing my nose. I smiled at how sweet that was, and fell
into a dreamless sleep within minutes.

Chapter 8

I woke to the sound of my phone alarm. I looked
around wondering why I was in the lounge, then I remembered the
dream. Liam was still asleep; as usual, his arms and legs were all
over me, pinning me down with his weight. I smiled and looked at
him for a few minutes before I decided to wake him up nicely for a
change. Usually, I just elbowed him or pushed him off of me, I
thought today I would be a little more creative, he’d like
that.

I moved
forward,
pushing on his shoulder. He
rolled onto his back, not taking his arms off of me, so he dragged
me to his side. I raised myself up onto my hands and knees and
moved so that I was straddling him, before putting my weight back
down on him. I stroked his handsome face a couple of times before I
pressed my lips to his lightly. He sighed a little in his sleep so
I kissed him again, a little harder and longer this time. He
started to get aroused and I stifled a giggle. OK, I know I’m new
to all this, but this boy seems to lust after me a lot! It was a
little embarrassing, but also at the same time it made me feel
wanted, needed, and attractive. I kissed him again and ran my hand
up his chest. He started to stir, his arms tightening around me,
clamping me to his chest even though he wasn’t even awake yet. I
kissed him again and trailed my tongue along his lip.
That
caught
his attention; he opened his eyes and looked at me, clearly
shocked, but with a smile playing on the edge of his
lips.

“
I hope
you’re going to wake me up like this from now on,” he said in his
husky,
sleep filled voice.

“
Maybe, if
you’re lucky,
” I teased. He put one hand
behind my head and pulled me back down to kiss him again. He
nibbled on my bottom lip asking for entrance, but I pulled away
instead, making him groan. “You need to go, Liam.” I pulled out of
his grasp and sat up, still straddling him. I could feel his
erection pressing against my core, making me yearn for him in ways
I hadn’t even thought about until now.

He smiled and
put his hands on m
y knees and just looked
at me sitting on top of him. His eyes were so lustful that I was
surprised he didn’t beg me for sex there and then. He didn’t even
move; just laid there with a big contented grin on his face. This
wasn’t really a good position to be sitting in; the feel of him
under me was turning me on so badly it was actually maddening. I
wondered what it would feel like to have him touch me, to run his
hands down my body; I bit my lip as a wave of desire washed over
me. The feelings were so confusing, so foreign to me. I’d never
wanted to even kiss anyone before, let alone the thoughts that were
starting to form in my head right now.

“
What are you
doing to me?” I whispered, confused that I could feel this way,
to
actually want someone when usually I
shy away from all physical contact because of what my father used
to make me do.

“
What do you
mean?” he asked, looking a little confused. I shook my head; I
couldn’t explain it, especially not to him
. I needed him to be able to wait for me, if I told him I
was feeling like this, he would probably go full steam ahead and
ruin everything. “Tell me what you mean, Angel. Please?” he begged;
using his puppy dog face on me. Damn it! That has always worked and
he knows it!

“
I don’t want
to, Liam.” I moved off of him and laid
back down by his side.

“
Please?” he
whispered,
looking at me with his begging
eyes.

I sighed. “I
don’t know what’s happening to me, one day I can’t even stand to
have anyone touch me and the next day I….” I trailed off, unsure
how to finish that sentence without giving him the wrong
impression.

“
The next
day,
what?” he prompted, leaning up on
his elbow so he could look into my eyes.

“
The next day
you’re turning me on so bad
ly that I
can’t even help myself,” I admitted, blushing like
crazy.

He laughed
quietly, giving me his cocky grin
. “You
turn me on too.”

“
Yeah, that’s
half the problem,
” I stated, glancing
down to see the tent he was sporting in his pyjama shorts, blushing
again that I had just looked and he would have seen me looking. Oh
crap, that is so embarrassing!

“
I’m sorry if
me being turned on turns you on.” He smirked at me and I blushed
harder, squirming at how uncomfortable this conversation was. I
slapped his chest and giggled out of embarrassment; he caught my
hand and held it tight just looking at me.

“
It scares
me,” I admitted,
feeling stupid and
childlike.

“
I know it
does, but I would never hurt you. If you ever felt like things are
going too fast, you would only ever have to say
, I promise.” I couldn’t doubt his sincerity; the truth of
his words were clear across his face.

I leant
forward and kissed
him gently, before
pulling away. “You really need to go. It’s almost eight
now.”

He
si
ghed and played with my fingers. “I
really dislike your friend, it’s her fault I have to leave,” he
mumbled, pretending to be annoyed. I laughed and got up off of the
couch, pulling him up to his feet.

“
You might
want to calm
down a little before you
leave. What would the neighbours think if they saw you leaving my
house like that?” I joked, nodding down towards his crotch, then
blushing because I had just looked again.

He
laughed
. “They would think that I have an
incredibly beautiful girlfriend, who has just kicked me out of her
bed,” he stated, shrugging casually. I grinned as he rearranged
himself in his shorts so it was less noticeable, before kissing me
again and going out of the front door.

I snuck back
to my room. Kate was still asleep so I crawled in my bed, but I
didn’t go back to sleep, instead, I text Liam:

‘
Glad you got at least 3 hours sleep last
night’
I
turned my phone onto silent so his reply didn’t wake
Kate.

‘
Me too. That couch is surprisingly comfy, better than my
bed but that’s prob because U were there’
he replied, making me smile.

‘
U
could always stay over tonight. Maybe I could sneak out to the
lounge after Kate’s asleep’
I text him
back.

‘
I
like that idea! What R U doing today? Wanna do
something?
’
he
asked.

‘
Not sure, think I need to spend the day with Kate though
seeing as she’s staying here’
I
replied.

‘
That girl is ruining everything, first I can’t stay over,
now I can’t spend the day with you! Strong dislike coming from over
here’
he text back, making me
giggle.

We text each
other back and forth for about an hour and I was glad that I
decided to upgrade my phone package so that I got unlimited texts,
otherwise thi
s would be costing me a
fortune.

I got up a couple of hours later, getting dressed and
heading out to the kitchen. Liam was already over. I shouldn’t have
been surprised really; he was hardly ever at his house. He spent
most of the day here when he wasn’t at school, leaving around nine
o’clock only to sneak back in through my window around ten thirty
anyway. I smiled at him but quickly looked away because he was
sitting next to Jake.

“
Morning,
Ambs. W
here’s Kate? Did you talk to her
about not touching me?” Jake asked, making me laugh at his serious
expression.

“
She’s in the
shower
. Anyway, you should be flattered
that she likes you, though maybe she’ll move onto Liam today,” I
teased, winking at him.

Liam
groaned
. “No way! I’m seeing someone,” he
stated confidently. I blushed slightly and shifted uncomfortably on
my feet because he’d just said that to Jake.

Jake’
s face snapped in his
direction. “You’re seeing someone? As in, like, seriously? You
don’t do relationships,” he said, frowning and looking at him
disbelievingly.

“
I crazy
about her
,” Liam replied, shrugging. I
made my way over to the fridge to get some milk for my cereal,
trying to pretend I wasn’t there. My heart was crashing in my
chest. Oh God he was going to do it! He was going to tell
Jake!

“
Crazy about
her? As in, you’re not going to mess her around? She must
be a really great screw,” Jake said, smirking
and slapping him on the back proudly. I choked on my orange
juice.

“
I’ve not
s
lept with her. She believes in no sex
before marriage.” Liam smirked.

Jake
looked like he nearly passed out, he was looking
at Liam like he had grown another head. “You…. she…. what?” he
stuttered, shaking his head violently.

Liam just
laughed. “As of now, I’m officially off the market. So, Angel, tell
your friend that I’m taken,” he instructed, turning to me and
giving me a wink.

“
I will.
Wow
, so a reformed man-whore, maybe there
is hope for you after all, Jake.” I laughed, throwing a coco pop at
him.

“
No way, I
give it a week and Liam will be back to his old self, sleeping with
anything that moves,
” Jake stated
confidently.

“
I don’t know
Jake; he looks pretty serious to me,” I said as I finished my
breakfast. Liam smiled at me, he obviously liked what I
said,
showing my trust.

“
Finally
, you’ve learned to use
the head that’s attached to your neck,” Jake joked, making me
flinch at his words.

“
I think it’s
sweet, Liam. She’s a lucky girl; hopefully you won’t break her
heart
,” I muttered, looking down at my
empty bowl, just hoping that he wouldn’t hurt me.

“
I won’t,”
Liam stated confidently. I smiled as I wal
ked back to my room to see Kate. I could hear Jake quizzing
Liam in the kitchen and I didn‘t want to be there for
it.

“So, what shall we do today?” I asked Kate as she was
applying her usual ton of make-up.

“
Hmm, I
know
, how about we go bowling? I could
call Sarah and Sean. We could ask your brother and Liam to come,”
she chirped excitedly. I didn’t really like bowling much, but my
other friends loved it. We probably ended up going about one a
month.

“
Sure
, I’ll call them.” I grabbed
my cellphone and dialled Sarah’s number.

“
I’ll go ask
sex god one and two.” Kate smiled, skipping out of my
bedroom.

I
follow
ed behind her as Sarah answered.
“Hey, Sar, want to come bowling?” I asked cheerfully, as Kate
plopped herself down next to Jake on the couch, practically sitting
on his lap.

“
Yeah sure.
What time?” she replied, sounding excited.

“
We’ll meet
yo
u there in, say, an hour?” I suggested,
looking at my watch, it was only just after ten now so that should
be fine.

“
OK. I’ll
call Sean, I can pick him up on the way,” she chirped.

I grinned
because Kate was now flirting with Jake shamelessly. “OK great. See
you there.” I disconnected the call and leant against the wall,
watching my best friend plead with my brother.

“
Please come
with us? Then you can see how skilled I am with balls,” Kate
purred
, fluttering her eyelashes. Liam
choked on his laughter, quickly turning it into a cough as Kate
turned to face him. “Come on, Liam, I’ll make it worth your while.
I know you’re a good player, how about you teach me a few tricks?”
she said seductively, moving closer to him. He looked uncomfortable
with her advances. I was actually enjoying him squirm. Usually, he
would flirt back with her, but today he looked like he wanted to
run away.

I decided to
help him out
. “Kate, will you leave them
alone? I don’t want my slut of a brother, and his reformed slut of
a best friend, coming, if I have to watch you throw yourself at
them all day,” I scoffed, pretending to gag. I was actually getting
quite annoyed that she was still looking at Liam like she wanted to
eat him there and then. Liam looked at me gratefully, which made my
heart seem to stutter slightly in my chest.
