"Okay Dakota we are locked."
I glance nervously at him. No this can't happen, we have to get out now.
"Help! Please help!!" I start to scream and knocking hard on the door.
"No one will listen" he peacefully says.
I glance back at him. He is right the music is loud enough so no one can hear me screaming. Think Dakota, think.
I search for my phone on my pants pockets and then I realise I'm not wearing pants but a dress. Great I left my phone in my purse, outside.
"Give me your phone." I demand him.
He looks nervous. "I didn't bring it, it's outside."
Breath Dakota you will find a way. Someone will notice you're not in the party. It will a matter of minutes.
Jamie's P.O.V
Shit. I manage to turn off my phone and hide it on my pocket so she can't see it. This is it. This is my chance to talk to her. Oh god what will I even say? Hi since the day we meet I want you and I don't know what it's going through my mind cause I'm married. Yeah that should fulfill the situation.
Dakota is sitting on the floor in silence.
"So... " before I can say something she interrupts me.
"I think I like you Jamie."
Dakota's P.O.V
My head is spinning right now, God it hurts so badly. I sit on the floor and take a deep breath. Someone will come over to check where we are I'm sure. Please find us quick, I pray. I don't know how much time I will handle being near him. Right now all I want to do is kiss him and tell him how much I've missed him this past few days... his touch, his kiss, him. I wonder if he feels the same.
"So..." he mumbles.
"I think I like you Jamie."
Before I can even think about the meaning of those words they are out of my mouth. I don't take my eyes from the floor and wait for a answer but nothing comes out of his mouth. This is it, I ruined it, he doesn't feel it.
"What?" I look up at him and he looks perplexed, almost amused by my news I think.
"I like you, more than I thought I did. And I'm sorry for putting this out right now... I know you're married and a baby it's arriving but I - I just... I think I'm falling for you. I'm so sorry."
He doesn't answer. I feel so ashamed of myself right now. I just want to go home and cry myself to sleep in bed. Why have you said it Dakota?
He sits by my side and takes my hand so our fingers are interlaced. This must be pity, I'm sure about it. He must feel guilty for not feeling the same.
I look at him in the eyes and they are filled with joy, I think...? He takes my hand to his lips and slowly kisses it.
"I'm falling for you too."
His words hit me like a truck. From all of the possibly scenarios this one wasn't one I was playing on my head. He likes you too Dakota, he just said it.
"What? I-"
"I like you too."
He leans over and with his free hand caresses my check. His touch feels divine and I can sense all my body react from it. It feels like sparkles. I close my eyes and breath deeply. The next thing I know his lips are on mine and his hands on my hair. I've missed this, all of him. The last few days have been a torture, I cried every single night because of the though that I couldn't have him, that he wasn't mine to love and my heart broke into million pieces this week. Right now he is picking all of them, one by one, and putting them back together. He tastes so good, I can taste the champagne and strawberries. He must have eaten some.
We continue to kiss and his tongue asks for permission and I immediately concede it. Our tongues interlace with each other. Right now I'm lost on his arms. This is the only place I can possibly wanna be. This is heaven. He puts me onto his lap and we break the kiss.
We stare breathless, forehead to forehead.
"Amelia--"
He puts his index finger over my lips "Shh don't ruin the moment. This is where I want to be right now. With you, just you."
I smile and tuck a piece of his hair behind his ear.
"Tell me about you, I want to know more about you." he says.
"Me?" he nods and I smile.
We start to talk about our lives and I'm immediately lost in his eyes. He puts me on the floor and lays down with me on the carpet. My head is onto is heart and I can hear his heartbeat. Our hands are interlaced above his stomach as he caresses my hand. He starts to talk about his childhood back at Belfast and how he lost his mom really early. I start to feel my eyes getting heavier, probably from the lack of sleep that I got this week, and I find myself falling asleep with his heartbeat as the lullaby.
***
I open my eyes and stare at the ceiling. Where am I?
I feel a hand at my hair so I look up and Jamie is looking to me. He looks amazing. I kiss his lips and he returns the kiss. I could wake up to this every morning, in his arms. I feel so happy but at the same time guilty. This feels so good but at the same time so wrong. Here I am, laying on the floor with a married men, who has probably a concerned wife back at home waiting for him... With almost a child on her arms.
"What are you thinking of?" he asks breaking my thoughts.
"How nice it would be to wake up every morning like this" I say trailing my fingers through his stomach.
I can feel him smile. "I would love it" he kisses my hair.
I look up at him back again and add "What we will do?"
He looks confused "About what?"
"About us, you are having a child with another woman Jamie. Your truly woman."
He sights.
"I don't know... I don't want to loose you."
"You won't, I'm yours truly."
He kisses me once more and all the problems vanish away.
***
Later we finally managed to get out of the closet. Sam's housecleaner had to do the laundry and she found me in Jamie in there. I'm glad we were already up and not in a steamy kissing session.
I picked up my stuff and we got out together. We made the cleaner promise she won't tell Sam anything because I'm pretty sure she would put up the puzzle really quickly. I arrive at my car and look back at Jamie.
"I'll miss you today" he says closing the distance between us.
"I miss you already" I say into his chest.
Our eyes lock then, he puts his hands on my waist and I put mine above his shoulders and we have our goodbye kiss. I don't want him to leave. For some reason this seems our last kiss. I shake the thoughts from my head. He opens my car door and I enter, closing it behind me. I pull down the window and he leans down.
"Drive safe"
"I will"
He kisses me one more time and in a few seconds I'm heading back home much more happy than I ever thought I would be when I first left to the party.
