33 | Linger onto me

-Noah-

My feet hurt after walking for hours with Maya. I take it back, we should've drove around. I finally get a break when Maya spots a store and shops around while I sit on a bench.

"Excuse me." A lady grabs my attention. "Yes?" "I was wondering if I could have your number. You're very handsome." She flirts with me. I give a small smile but inside I'm yelling at the ceiling.

"I have a girlfriend." I say. I look down at my phone but I'm my peripheral vision I can still see the lady's red heels.
I look up slightly from my phone and see her staring at me. "Ma'am like I already said, I have a girlfriend."

"Is there a problem here?" Maya suddenly appears. "No problem ma'am." The lady says to Maya. "Do you work here?" Maya asks the lady and she nods. "I suggest you actually do your job instead of going after taken men." Maya says seriously to the lady.

Maya sits beside me and the lady stares between us. She finally walks away.
"Disrespectful." I hear Maya mutter under her breath. "I know right." I whisper back to her. Maya nudges my shoulder while laughing along with me.

We leave the store while Maya makes me carry 5 bags. How much did she buy? I have to walk all the way back to the car with these in my hand, great.

We finally make it back to the car and I stuff Maya's bags into the backseat. I sit in the driver seat and close my eyes. I feel a warm hand interlock with mine, and I don't even have to guess who it is.

I look over to see Maya observing me. She leans against the door and watches me like I'm a piece of art on display.

"What?" I ask. "Nothing." She says with a smile on her face.
I move closer to her, our faces now inches away from each other.
"You smell good." I say, inhaling the sweet smell of her perfume. "You're so weird." She says. Maya tries to back away but I wrap my hand around her neck and pull her back towards me.

"It's a good smell." I whisper against her lips. "And why is that?"
"Because I want it to linger onto me."

Maya smiles before I gently kiss her. She lets her fingers run in my hair while I keep my hand on her throat and my other hand on her back.
I feel her tongue run across my lips, making me open our kiss more to allow herself to taste me.

Maya obviously tries to come closer but the center console blocks us from each other.
I pull away from our kiss and stare at her eyes. They have stars in the corner of them, and it doesn't even come close to her beauty.

I hear something hitting the windshield. I look over and see rain droplets, more coming down by the second.
Maya runs out of the car into the rain.

"What the hell are you doing?" I yell. "It's rain, not acid!" She yells back. Maya stands in the rain while smiling up to the sky as if she had just won the world.

I open my door and walk towards her. Maya is soaking wet and her dress clings to her body. I let my hands touch the wet fabric on her body, pressing my chest against her back.

"Can we stay here?" She asks me. "We'll get sick." Maya turns her body around to face me. The rain droplets shine on her face, illuminating all her features I fell in love with.

"There's something I need to tell you." I say to Maya. She nods her for me to continue but I don't.

I place my hands on her cheeks and kiss her. Maya responds to my kiss while her hands sit against mine. I take in the last few seconds I have with her lips before I detach myself from her.

"What is it?" She says with a smile on her face.
"I'm falling in love with you."

I was thinking of telling her that I love her but it wasn't the truth.
Yes I love her but it was so much more than that. Everyday that passes and every night that I get to sleep next to her is a blessing to me.

"I'm falling in love with you too." Maya slowly whispers.
My heart started beating at a rapid pace. I wanted to kneel in front of Maya and sell my soul to her at this moment.

Maya unexpectedly hugs me, and it doesn't take long for me to hug her back. She rests her head against my chest.
"Your hearts beating fast." She says. "That's because of you." She chuckles at my response but it's the truth.

"Can we go home?" She asks. "I thought you wanted to see the city more?" "I do, but we have time for that later."
Maya looks up to me with a innocent smile. We both know that innocent look is hiding those dirty thoughts.

"Hmm. There's a bathroom not far from here." I say to Maya. "We wouldn't be alone."
"We better be quite then."

I take Maya's hand and walk around the park, looking to my side seeing her cheeks with a bright shade of pink.

I close the door of the restroom and press Maya's body against the door. I press my body against hers and kiss her exposed skin. I leave marks on the skin that belongs to me.

Unfortunately, I was rudely interrupted.
My phone rang in my pocket, feeling Maya's neck vibrate against my lips when she starts laughing.

I look to see Liam calling me. "What the fuck do you want?" I frustratingly ask him. "We have a DNA test results from the folder." I look to Maya who is just standing there.

"Do we have a name?" I ask. "Quinn Newton. We don't know her intentions though." "I'll call you back later to talk again." I say into the phone, hanging up on Liam.

"What is it?" Maya asks me.
"Do you know anyone named Quinn Newton?" "Yes she's one of my friends, why?"

Thank you for reading today's chapter.

#fake ! It might be a little confusing but I swear once we come to the end it'll make sense what Quinn has to do to this but for now, all we know is she's a backstabbing bitch!

Also, thank you so much for 15K! I'm so excited to continue this series as we only have maybe 10 chapters left? But I'm excited for the next book and for you all to read what happens between Maya and Noah.

I hope you enjoyed today's chapter. Stay healthy and safe, I love you babes. -R. <3
