Drogheda | Book 1

40. Ruining Moments

Emma's POV

I sit in Killian's lap studying as he does the same. He has his arm draped over my waist. I lean against his shoulder as I flip through my book. "Ugh! So bored!" He complains.

"Studying isn't supposed to be fun." He moves my hair to one side of my neck as he puts his lips to my skin. He sucks in each place. "Trying to work here." I try to contain my moans.

"Me too." I lay my head against his shoulder, but it doesn't stop him, but only encourages him. He wraps his arms around my waist and kisses my sweet spot, sending me over the edge. I let out a moan. He chuckles against my skin.

"Mmm." He groans against me. I put my hand in his hair.

"Hey, guys." Killian and I both jump. I open my eyes and see Liam by the stairs. "Sorry, the door was unlocked."

"What the hell are you doing here?" Killian asks.

"Well, I was just in the neighborhood and I thought I'd stop by and say hello, clearly that wasn't the best idea." He smirks.

"Why are you really here, Liam?" Killian asks.

"Well, Mum and Papa wanted to have us over for dinner. Oh, and I wanted to see if you two were back together." I blush and bury my face in the crook of his neck. He smiles and kisses my hair.

"We'll be there."

"Great." He walks back down the stairs and closes the door.

"Your brother always has to ruin the moment, doesn't he?"

"Aye," he sighs and flips me onto my back. He crawls over top of me. I giggle and put my arms around his neck. He presses his lips to mine in a slow soft kiss. "Mmm, I love you." I smile.

"I love you too." I push on him, flipping him onto his back.

"So that's how you want to play, isn't it Swan?" He smirks at me.

"Maybe..." I run my hands up his chest in a seductive manner. He chuckles.

"And what do you think you're doing?" He smiles. I shrug.

"I don't know... trying to turn you on." I blush.

"Well, it's working." He kisses me. He pushes himself up so he's in a sitting position. I slide into his lap and wrap my legs around his waist. He smiles and breaks the kiss. "Swan?"

"Yeah?" I look into his eyes as our foreheads rest together.

" there's something I've been meaning to tell you, but..." he trails off.

"You can tell me." I take his hands in mine.

"I know, I just think that you might be mad is all." He looks away. I try to hide my concern. "Well, here goes... I got a job." He says quickly.

"Why would I be mad about that?" I smile.

"Well, we just won't be able to see each other as often, and I thought that you would be mad at me for taking the job because of that." He runs on and looks down.

"Killian," I cup his face, making him look up at me.. "I'm not mad at you, I'm glad that you got a job. And, of course, I'm sad that I won't be able to see you as much, but besides I have school and I'm busy most of the time. And you getting a job is the perfect opportunity for you to get out more. Plus, you only have one more year of school so that gives you a job straight out of college." I give him a sweet smile. He smiles the biggest smile I've ever seen on him.

"You're incredible."

"I try." I giggle. "Where are you working?" I wrap my arms around his neck.
