chasing happiness

chapter twenty-three: "I love you"

It's a little after 11:00pm when me and Adam arrived at Ed's party. I was first greeted by Ed. We congratulated each other on the nights success. To my extreme fortunate, Ed and Adam had hit it off well. I was afraid Adam was going to go all protective on me again and not allow me and Ed to converse at all tonight but that was not the case. They had spent most of the show together and seemed to be fine in each other's presence.
Ed happily played the role of "party host" to perfection and supplied me and my date with drinks.
I then ran into Niall again who was still happy to see me. Thankfully he did not bring up my awkward encounter with Harry.
"Hello once again!" He chimed as him and Louis walked over to us. I smiled and tried to be polite. It was nice of him to keep up with the friendship. It was not his fault he served as a painful reminder of my past.
"Hi. So glad you guys could come."
"Would never miss one of my mates parties, isn't that right Ed?" He called after Ed as he began his walk over us.
The room was loud and filled with electricity. Anyone who was anyone had showed up to Ed's party. It was very fun. I enjoyed spending the night with my friends even making new ones.
Adam happily joined their conversation and a half listened in on their boy talk. I then left Adam to go greet my own friends and had plenty of fun drinking and talking with them. Later when I went back to my boyfriend I found him still talking with Niall and Ed. I smiled. I liked their friendship.
I walked back over to Adam where he gracefully wrapped me in his arms. By now I was a bit tipsy from the alcohol and partying but none of that really mattered. I had a strong desire for him again. One paralleled with the feeling I felt backstage. Without much hesitation I propped up on my toes in order to reach his ear and whispered "please come with me" into his right ear. I noticed the side of his cheek unfurl into a grin.
"I'm excuse me for a minute." He replied to his friends who happily nodded. With that he swept me over to a vacant corner away from the crowds.
"Mhm you look so good tonight." I breathed in barely a whisper. I began sizing him up and my fingers traced his black suit from the collar all the way to the end. I caught him grinning down at me as he watched my fingers run along his tux.
"It would be better off though." I whispered more to myself than to him. I buried my face into his shoulder and absentmindedly began kissing his neck. I felt his breathing grow more shallow. He was not stoping me so he must be enjoying it. For once I did not feel uncomfortable in a room full of people. Adam had an unusual way of doing that to me. As if no other human being around us even existed. I felt comfortable with him, despite all the people. I wanted to kiss him even if there were eyes watching. It was a feeling unlike any other. I had never been able to to do that with anyone else.
"Taylor." He breathed. He was slowly becoming hot from my touch. I reached up to kiss him. I pushed myself as closely as possible to his frame. Completely ignoring the world around us, as if anyone was paying much attention.
But someone was -I heard my name being called. With that I parted from him.
"We will finish this later?" I suggested in a sweet tone. He gave me a huge smile. I reached for his hand. His touch was so comforting to me.
"Taylor, they're setting up a photo booth!" One of my friends happily informed.
"Coming!"
With that I was dragged into over a dozen photos with my girlfriends and other people who wanted me in their pictures. Finally I found Adam again.
"Hey come take pictures with me!" I said my voice a little off from the drinks.
"Haha no, nice try." He said. God he was so uptight.
"No, you're coming." I dragged him behind me by the cuff of his sleeve. Ed and Niall joined us in the photo booth where we frantically put on any weird accessory of fun up the atmosphere and pictures. We took a few pictures and by our third session (because who only goes for one session?) he relaxed a bit and was able to take some entertaining pictures. I grabbed a random claw thing and put a mask on Adam's face and we were set for another session.
*Click* the first picture went off as we posed hysterically. I turned to him next in between shoots.
"I love this." I said and pecked his lips which he happily kissed back just as the the camera clicked.
"Hey no PDA in here!" My brother Austin said. I had completely forgotten he was here! Nonetheless we all burst out laughing as the last photo snapped.
After that session came to a close more people joined me and Adam in the booth, even his friend Emil and his girlfriend Christina. We took some "sexy" pictures together and all ended up laughing come the end of it.
Finally we finished our photos with friends and I was about to exit the booth when Adam held me back.
"Hey I still need a photo with just you love." I smiled big at his request and happily jumped into his lap for one final session of just us. Most of them turned out very cute and we finally got our kissing photo but I knew they were too sweet to be shared online.
Meanwhile everyone else was taking pictures of our pictures to post online. It was fun and we all gathered around tumblr as we witness the fanbase explode.

"You ready to go home?" Adam asked as the party drew to a close. I was exhausted from the events of the night but I wanted nothing more than to spend the rest of it with him.
We walked into his mansion and set all our things down. I had carefully handed my security my eight awards not wanting to cart then with me to Adam's home. I turned around to face him for like the one hundredth time that night and carefully laced my long arms around his neck and stood on my toes to place a soft kiss on his sweet lips. His hands were wrapped around my waist and slowly caressing the small of my back.
"I had fun tonight." I broke away. He looked down on me smiling. The room was lightly illuminated by one lone lamp that stood nearest a long chocolate brown couch.
"I did too." He confessed.
"You know it was really nice having you there to support me," I started. "I've always had friends or family with me but... But you were an amazing addition to the group. It made the night go by so much more smoothly."
I leaned back up to kiss him again. I felt our soft kiss turn more into a make out as his tongue entered my mouth. I was so turned on already. I had been craving his touch all night.
"Taylor," he said as he pulled away. I almost whimpered. I did not want him to stop.
"Taylor you are truly the most amazing women ever, you are perfect in every way. I know you probably think I feel this way about every girl but no. You're different. And I love you." I stopped at his words.
"What?" I said slightly taken aback.
"I love you." His smile grew twice as big at his confession. It was then I knew it was absolutely genuine.
"Adam... I.. I love you too." I said so happily I almost burst in tears as I took in the realization that I did truly love him back. A huge smile spread across her face, a lone tear down my cheek.. He kissed me again and again and again afterwards, constantly whispering "I love you" in between kisses. I slowly began to help him out of his tux coat.
He started walking backwards before pulling me to sit on his lap on the chocolate colored couch. I then began pulling at his shirt and quickly brought it up and over his head. I kissed him deeply as my hands gliding over his strong frame. His stomach was so toned and his skin soft to the touch. I felt his hands move down from my face to the little cleavage exposed on my chest. I lifted my head so he could kiss my neck as I felt him reach behind my back for the clasp of the upper part of my jumper. It did not come off however because I had a string looping over my neck.
"Fuck why is this so hard?" He breathed as he struggled with the string. I laughed at his desperation to get my clothes off. He was already so turned on.
"I just want to love you and your bare chest for gods sake!"
He was so cute when he was frustrated I could not help but laugh only this frustrated him more.
Finally, with my assistance, he was able to undress me. I heard the zipper of his pants and knew I was a goner. We both did not bother taking this to the privacy of his bedroom. Instead I kept kissing him and he flipped me over. I loved him. So much that I thought this could honestly be true love. And gosh, it was a feeling I wanted to have for the rest of my life.
