Olivia
In the back of the mind I know we're sitting in the car in the driveway and I know this is not the time or place for what we're doing but at the same time, I can't find it in me to stop myself. I've been trying so hard to separate my relationship with Liam from what's going on with Harry but that's not what I did. I stopped having a relationship with Liam all together. I've shut him out. Physically. Mentally. Emotionally. Every way imaginable. But now that I'm wrapped in his arms, feeling his body all around me, his lips and hands lighting every inch of me on fire, I'm craving him. I'm like an addict getting my first fix after being on the wagon. I forgot how good it felt to be with Liam. And now that I remember, I can't stop.
I can feel his hands on my thighs, pushing up my dress while I rock my body against his. My hands are pressed against his stomach, just under the waistband of his jeans and I'm just about to start reaching for his zipper when we hear a knock on the window.
"Get a room!" Niall shouts at us through the closed window as we jump apart.
"C'mon we're hungry!" Lexie adds.
"We'll be inside in a sec." I call to them, shaking my head while Liam chuckles. We've been caught red handed.
"Any chance we can ignore them and finish what we started?" Liam asks hopefully, his stubbly jaw nuzzling against my cheek when Niall and Lexie walk away.
"I doubt they'll wait that long. But later." I assure him, turning my head to kiss him again. His hands brush my hair back from my face tenderly as we pull back from the kiss and I can't help but sigh feeling his gentle touch. I've missed this.
"Later." He agrees, brushing his nose against my cheek and kissing me one last time before reaching for the door handle and helping me climb off his lap.
When we make it inside Niall and Lexie are sitting at the kitchen table like two parents waiting for their daughter to get home from a date.
"Well you two look like you had a good day." Lexie comments when we walk in hand in hand.
"We did." I tell her, looking back up at Liam. Even though it was a crazy, weird day it turned out pretty great. And by looking at him, I can tell he feels the same.
"Tell us about it in the car? We're starving." Lexie suggests.
We take Niall's car so he's driving with Lexie in the front seat and Liam and I in the back. He has his arm around me and I can't help but lean into him while he talks to Niall about the next few tour dates coming up. I can see Niall holding Lexie's hand over the center console while he drives. The last bit of light from the setting sun reflects off of her promise ring and I can't help but think about how different our relationships are. Lexie and Niall have been together longer than Liam and I have. They've definitely been more stable. But it's almost like our roles are reversed. Here Liam and I are making this big step, moving in together but they aren't quite there yet. It almost makes me wonder if we are moving too fast. If I'm sure about this, why isn't Lexie?
When we pull up in front of the restaurant Paddy and Niall's security, Basil, are already there waiting to usher us inside. There's paparazzi outside but between those two and Liam and Niall we're all shielded pretty well. We know the drill by now. The boys do their best to keep us from getting photographed but it doesn't really matter anymore. Everyone knows about us at this point. The fans have gotten used to us for the most part. Although I've noticed Lexie is a little more widely accepted than I am. It surprised me at first because Niall has always been single. We thought they would all go nuts once they knew about Lexie. But for the most part they like her, and like her for Niall. They are pretty much the perfect couple after all. I'm not so easily welcomed. At first I was. They liked that I was a normal girl and that I didn't keep Liam from interacting with fans when we were out. But after our breakup that pretty much disappeared. They don't trust me anymore. Even though we were broken up at the time, they still think I cheated on him with Ian. If they only knew what I did with Harry. I'd be shunned forever. Liam's reconnection with Sophia didn't help our case much either. It gave that small faction of people that liked them together the little spark they needed to hold on to hope they would get back together eventually. I just try to ignore it for the most part. I know most of it is jealousy but it is annoying to see all the comments on everything I post so I try to stay off social media now. It's just easier that way.
