The mansion's silence enveloped them, the only sound the soft hum of the refrigerator. Liam, still damp from his shower, sat on the kitchen counter, a towel draped casually around his hips. His hair clung to his neck, and water droplets glistened on his chest. Niall's gaze lingered, his eyes fixed on Liam's chiseled physique.
Liam caught Niall's stare, a sly smile spreading across his face. He winked, his eyes crinkling at the corners. "Like what you see, Snowflake?" His voice was low, teasing, sending shivers down Niall's spine.
Niall's cheeks flushed, his lip caught between his teeth. Liam's gaze never wavered, his intensity making Niall's heart race. He felt exposed, vulnerable, yet drawn to Liam's allure.
Without breaking eye contact, Liam reached out, his hands grasping Niall's ass, pulling him closer. "Do you?" Liam's voice was husky, his breath whispering against Niall's ear.
Niall's breath hitched, his pulse pounding in his neck. He nodded, his voice caught in his throat. Liam's grip tightened, his fingers digging into Niall's flesh.
"I think you do," Liam whispered, his lips inches from Niall's. The air was charged with tension, the silence between them palpable. Niall's secrets threatened to spill over, but Liam's touch kept him anchored.
As they stood there, Liam's hands exploring Niall's body, Niall felt the weight of his facade crumbling. For this moment, he was free to be himself, to indulge in the desire that had long simmered between them.
Liam's towel began to slip, revealing more of his toned physique. Niall's eyes widened, his heart racing with anticipation. "Li..." Niall's voice was barely audible, a plea and a warning.
Liam's smile grew, his eyes sparkling with mischief. "Shh, Snowflake. The others are asleep. It's just us." He pulled Niall closer, their bodies almost touching.
The world outside receded, leaving only the two of them, lost in the heat of their desire. Niall's thoughts swirled, his senses overwhelmed by Liam's proximity.
In this moment, Niall knew he was on the precipice of something life-changing. Liam's touch ignited a fire within him, melting his fears and doubts.
