My Forbidden Love

"Mom! Do I really have to wear this thing to the wedding....like in actual public?" Ugggh I just hare this dress. I mean who even where's pink anymore?But anyways I'm only doing this outta force. Since moms getting married again after 3 years divorce to this suppose to be "total hottie". By the way those where her exact words. Why do I have to go? I'm pretty sure sh'ell have more than enough people there excluding me.

"Yes you do Leah now come out and let me see it." I did one last check over in the mirror before stepping out.Noticing how my light blonde hair really needed a scrunchy at the moment. I always kept one withe me luckily I hated the feeling of my hair down my back.

"Taa-daa" I said mocking a turn.

"Oh my. Your look gorgeous hunny!" Squealed my mom. "Turn around once more let me see."

"You cant literally think this is a dress anyone would wear right?"I said to my mom that was now smoothing out the fabric of the dress. It wasn't that bad but certainly something I don't wear on a regular basis. I turned to the mirror to examine my what-felt-like-half-naked-body. It was right above my knees. It had a built in belt made of what looked like crystals and shiny things of that sort that was right under my chest. The fabric going down from there was flowing away from me but also a little poofy. The sheer/knitted faded almost pale pink layer was on top of a glossier and much brighter pink.From the scoop neck down the the waist belt it was fitted and showed off every curve that was there. Which showed off my hour-glass shape and almost D cup sized chest. Not mentioning that it was a halter top.

I turned around from the mirror now noticing that my mom was now frantically pacing the store floor looking a bit overwhelmed.

"Everything okay over there?" I asked walking back into the booth to change back into my sweatshirt and jeans.

"Umm yeaaa... just thinking about  shoes to get that'll match the dress but wont overdue the belt and the accessories to match everything including all the colors and then you just cant forget the-"

"Mom please. I get your excited but your giving me a headache trying to keep yup with you." I sighed in relief existing the booth now fully dressed when I heard her agree with an okay.

"Yes sure hunny. I guess we can call it a day. How bout we head home and order a piazza and one of those movies with Taylor Lautner in it?"

I laughed at my mom's childish behavior when it came to our girls night.

"I'm totally up for it. With the acception of ice cream after the movie?"I said hoping she'll agree while giving her my best puppy dog face.

She automatically gave in. No one can resist my charm.

"Only because I love you sweetie. Lets go home now."

We walked our of the store side by side talking about how we'll wear our hair on the wedding day.

Pizza.Check. Movies.Check. Blankets.Check. Extra Blankets.Check. Mom.Check

We were all set for our girls night and already halfway through the movie and also running low on the pizza.

Of course mom was sleep and taking up all the space on the couch. Oh man how I'm gonna miss this. Me and her all on our on. Unfortunately tomorrow the Smiths are officially moving in even though wedding was about two more months away.

I can only guess what it'll be like living with three other people. Warren,my future step father, had two children. Liam who was 18 and Kate who was only 4. The thing I worried about most is how me a 16, going on 17 in exactly one month, would mix with another teenager living in my home. Especially a boy.

The next morning I was awaken by the sunlight in my room.I thought about how I ended up here. I rushed down the stairs almost falling down the last two. I giggled at my stupidity while entering the kitchen.

"Morning Leah.What some breakfast?" My mom asked flipping what looked like the forty something pancake.

"Um okay sure. But why are you making so many of them?

"Oooh yea because Warren's on his way over with the children and thought it'll be better if he moved in during the morning to give you and Liam some time to get to know each other sensing you haven't seen him once."She rambled on while still flipping pancakes.

"Jesus mom! You could've woke me earlier.Uggh what time would they be here? And what about Kate?" I asked now kind of annoyed with the sudden arrangements.

"Kate is going to one of her friends birthday parties today so she slept over with that family you wont see her untill tomorrow maybe late after dinner. And they'll be here in about half an hour." She heard my growl because she turned around with an apologetic smile.

I rolled my eyes and headed upstairs, "I'm going to take a shower." I told her but quickly ran to my room before hearing here reply.

This was all to soon. That's what I kept repeating to myself in the shower. And slowly drifted asleep in the bathtub.

Knock.Knock.

I snapped awake and grabbed for my towel. I listened for the door before fully getting out of the tub. Tightly wrapped I internally cursed noticing Ive bring the wrong towel, wearing the towel that barely covered up to my mid-thigh.

"What a morning, " I said once Ive safely made it to my room unseen.

As I closed my bedroom door behind me I turned to see someone in my room. My mind said run. But my feet just didn't move.

I stood staring at the guy that was intruding my room with my mouth opened slightly. Only one thing came to my mind while I stood there almost naked for what seemed like a whole hour. Hot much?

We never broke eye contact only because his piercing brown eyes were daring me on to not look away. But I was me who broke the silence.

"Who are you and what the heck are you doing in my room?" I said trying to sound confident but actually melting under his gaze.

He didn't answer me. He only shifted his gaze down to my bare legs the quickly back up.

"Hello... earth to weirdo," I snapped at his face, getting really annoyed with the whole situation.

"Don't do that" he said in such a casual tone that only got me more annoyed.

"Excuse me. But your in my house telling me what to do. Now do you see any sense in that?!" I practically yelled at him not realizing our close proximity until now.

He smirked just the slightest until putting up an annoyed façade, but I could already see through it.

"Its my house too now, did you forget?" His matter-of-factly tone was driving me insane now.

"Listen OK, I don't really care at this point just leave my room before I freeze to death, literally." I said with an exaggerated shiver.

He chuckled and boy did that drive me insane too. But in a totally good way I'm sure. He took on step closer. I took on back. He kept coming closer until my back was against the freezing cold door. He was about three steps away from me.

He looked down at me again mainly because he was a good five inches taller. "We wouldn't want that now should we Leah? By the way I'm Liam. Your new older brother." He said the last sentence as he reached for the doorknob, his words lingering on the hairs on my neck. Yeas he was that close.

As he shut the door I let out a breath I didn't know I was holding. That boy has crazy good looks. His chocolate brown hair toyed around his head perfectly. Broad and oh so muscular body. Perfect jawline flawless skin...

Liam. His words replayed in my mind," Your new older brother." For some reason he said it in a way that had a wicked double meaning. By the looks of him I could only hope he did.
