Becca and Liam arrived at their condo building"s underground parking lot — their hairs were still damp from their unplanned swimming. He had placed his coat over her shoulders to shelter her from the cool wind. They had smiles on their faces as they thought about what they did earlier, cras.h.i.+ng at some stranger"s roof bar party."Did you have fun tonight?" Liam asked as they stepped in the elevator.
Becca nodded with a smile on her pretty face, "Yes."
Stepping inside the elevator, there were two elderly people who rode with them as they ascended to the top floors. Sneaking glances at each other, Liam held Becca"s hand and the heat of his palm transferred to her. His heart drummed in his chest while they waited for the two other people to get off the d.a.m.n elevator.
On the 10th floor, the elevator stopped and their company had finally gotten off, leaving the two of them alone.
And as soon as the elevator door closed, Liam moved until he was in front of Becca. His eyes met hers for a brief second before he lowered his head and kissed her deeply that she whimpered in response to his sudden aggressiveness but she did not complain about his advancements.
He had been wanting to kiss her again ever since they left the hotel, so he tried to suppress his urges until they get home. And to his astonishment, Becca seemed to feel the same when she pressed herself to him.
Surprisingly, the elevators went up until they reached their floor without stopping. The heavens must have granted them their inner wishes.
*Ding!*
Liam pulled back and Becca instantly missed his lips on her, making Liam chuckle.
"You are so beautiful," he whispered.
Clearing her throat, Becca composed herself and the two of them walked out of the elevator hand in hand.
As they reached Becca"s unit, she fumbled to unlock her door but then her hand stopped mid-air when she remembered that her room was a total mess when she left earlier that night. Her eyes grew wide before she squeezed them shut. "I can"t let him see my mess!" She began to worry.
Turning around, she beamed at Liam so bright that she earned a raised brow from him. "Um… why don"t we go to your place instead?"
Tilting his head, he looked at her expression when he did not understand why she suddenly proposed but since he did not mind going to his place, he nodded to agree. "Okay."
Becca followed him from behind and sighed in relief.
When the two of them entered Liam"s condo, Becca became nervous. Her heart beat rapidly in her chest and she wondered why she was feeling that way. The feeling she experienced was something that she had not felt before — it was definitely strange and it made her weak in the knees that she had to grab the nearest object.
"Oof!" The console table shook slightly, catching Liam"s attention. "Are you okay?" He turned to ask.
Becca chuckled out of embarra.s.sment and steadied herself, "Y-yeah… just out of balance."
"I"ll grab us some towels," he said before he disappeared into a room.
She placed her purse down on the table and removed the coat on her while she breathed in and out like she was preparing herself for a marathon that"s about to commence. "What is wrong with you, Becca Wise?" She scolded herself.
"Did you say something?" Liam came back within the minute, handing her a towel and using another one to dry off his hair.
"Huh? Oh... nothing..."
"Do you want anything to drink?" He walked towards the refrigerator and searched for some beverages.
"J-j-just water, thanks," She said, surprising herself that she stuttered. Why did she stutter?
Noticing that her clothes were partially wet, what with her underwear soaked with water and all, he figured that he should lend her some clothes. After handing her a gla.s.s of water, Liam quickly retrieved a s.h.i.+rt and boxers from his closet and handed them over to her. "Sorry, this is all I got."
"It"s okay, I just need to borrow your hair dryer," she responded as she strutted towards his bedroom to get to the shower. She reached for the back zipper and started pulling it down with ease. Her hair was parted to the side, showing her bare nape and half-opened back to Liam.
Liam swallowed and clenched his jaw at the sight in front of him. "Is this woman doing it on purpose? Doesn"t she know that I am no saint?" With large strides, he followed her from behind.
Becca was unaware of what her actions were doing to her man and when she turned around, he caught her by surprise.
"You have shamp-" She shut up the moment Liam captured her lips with his. And as if it was her nature, she instantly closed her eyes and hooked her arms around his neck, dropping the clothes that were in her hands to the floor.
Becca allowed Liam to deepen their kiss as he dipped her head back a little and she clutched his collar to pull him closer to her.
With an arm around her waist and his other hand on her nape, he guided her towards the bed until she felt the edge of it on her legs.
He kissed her tenderly as his hands wandered the sides of her body, tracing every curve of her hips and bottom. She pressed herself onto him, wanting to feel his warmth and her breathing quickened when she felt his fingers touch her bare back.
"Are you sure you"re okay with this?" He asked in between their kisses.
"Yes."
Liam found the zipper of her dress and he slowly glided it downwards until it reached the end; her dress had loosened up but it still stayed in place.
His kisses moved from her lips to her cheek, down to her neck and she tilted her head to give him access in which he gladly took advantage of. His warm hands caressed her bare back — his every touch and kisses sent tingling sensations down to her lower region; she moaned and threw her head back in satisfaction. "Oh... G.o.d, Liam." She tugged his hair and he groaned.
She pulled his head up to kiss his lips as her hands found the seams of his s.h.i.+rt. She lifted them up above his head until it was completely removed, showcasing his muscular body. She blushed upon seeing his topless state but her hands did not shy away from appreciating his chest… and his abs… with her delicate touch. "You"re gorgeous," she said a very sensual voice.
"And so are you." He closed their gap once more and kissed her lips again only this time, it was more fervent. His tongue explored her mouth and dueled with hers in a very enthusiastic way yet she did not back down. Liam"s body temperature rose together with hers as they both indulged themselves in their hot, pa.s.sionate make-out session.
Becca"s dress dropped to the floor, leaving only her damp underwears on her. She s.h.i.+vered slightly when she felt exposed until his hands roamed to her front and cupped her breast, giving it a squeeze. She moaned in pleasure and her sound only excited him more.
Feeling like she had to do something with her hands, she stroked his torso downwards until she found the b.u.t.ton on his pants.
But just as they were going to take it further, footsteps were heard not far from them; Liam"s ear twitched in response but was not able to react right away.
"Li... Son, are you in here?" Mrs. Cho called for his son as she opened the door to his bedroom. She raised both of her hands to cover her mouth and she gasped in surprise.
"Aaah!" Becca and Liam"s eyes shot up open and instinctively, Liam turned around and placed Becca behind him. "What the H-!? Mother? What are you doing here?!"
Becca"s heart pumped like crazy at the sudden intrusion. She felt like all her blood was drained from her face and yet she blushed like crazy, heat pooled on her cheeks.
"I sent you a text that I was dropping by to get some things before I visit your sister-in-law in the hospital." Mother Cho answered, still a bit fl.u.s.tered.
"Why didn"t you knock?!" Liam was exasperated. How could his mother just enter his house at a time like that? She never did that before, so what kind of luck was this?
Liam"s mother shrugged nonchalantly, seemingly not bothered that there was an embarra.s.sed, half-naked woman behind her son. "Technically you were the one who did not lock your door!"
"Mother!"
"Okay! Okay! I"m going!" Mother Cho turned around with a smile on her face, obviously amused to know that her son was finally dating someone.
