A Dangerous Wave

39

Our faces are close and I can feel his breath on my face. I want this so much, but I can't. I can't do this to myself again. It was hard, but I moved away just in time. He was inching closer, and I had to move away. I don't want to lead him on, because in the end, we'll go our separate ways anyway.

"Is there anything else you got planned for tonight?" I ask in a more cheerful tone after a few quiet minutes.

"Maybe ..." He says in a teasing tone and smirks down at me. "Come on." He gets up and pulls me up as well. He begins to take his shoes off while I just stare at him with raised eyebrows and wide eyes.

"What are you –?"

"Try to guess what we're going to do." He says as he pulls his black t-shirt over his head, which reveals his toned body.

I turn away from his amazing torso, I don't want to be caught staring. Now I know what he had in mind. I smirk at his idea and begin to undress myself, too. Now, I am in only my underwear and thank God I put on a decent pair of panties and a decent looking bra. I don't really care what kind of underwear I own, because I had no time for dating. I haven't been with a guy ever since Katie came along. Well, I've gone on dates, but I ended things pretty quickly with every single guy. The both of us are now in only our undergarments, standing in the middle of the sandy beach and smiling at each other.

"For old times' sake." Liam extends his hand towards me and I gladly intertwine my fingers with his.

We both begin to run towards the warm ocean, and soon the water gulps us both. We are not holding hands anymore, but we're laughing. Our laughter is booming all over the beach. I know why I am laughing; this brings back so many amazing memories. I remember how we went swimming all the time. And most of those times, we didn't even plan it, so we had to be in our underwear or naked (which we never were).

"Damn, I'm going to have to wash my hair, again." I exclaim about 15 minutes later, when we both get out of the ocean.

"And I am going to have to go wash or go buy new clothes, because I don't have any left."

"What? You came here for two weeks and you don't have enough clothes with you?"

He shrugs. "I wanted to be spontaneous." I roll my eyes while giggling at him.

"Come on, let's go. I have some of Ben's clothes at my place and I doubt he'll mind you wearing them." I tug at his hand and we begin to walk towards his car, so he can drive us both home. His seats will be a bit wet, but it looks like he doesn't care about it.

Minutes later, we are back at my house. When we enter, Ben looks at us from the TV screen and his eyes widen. Fuck, I forgot we're in just our underwear. His lips are parted, and it looks like he is about to say something.

"Can Liam wear your clothes while his are getting washed?" I ask Ben and he stands up from the couch after turning off the TV.

"Yeah, sure. You know where they are." I nod.

"Thank you for being here, Ben. I really appreciate it. Was there any trouble?" Ben shakes his head.

"She has been asleep the whole time, not a sound from her." He moves towards the door.

"Thank you, again." I hug him and he kisses my cheek before exiting the house. I lock the door after he leaves and turn to Liam once more. "Come on; let's get you some dry clothes." Liam follows me upstairs and to my room, where I keep Ben's clothes. "I think these would fit you, so you can change in there." I throw him the clothes and point to the bathroom door to my left. He goes towards the door. "You can also shower. The towels are in the left cupboard." He nods and disappears behind the doors.
