Always Have.....Always Will

CHAPTER 5: It's Now Or Never!

●RYAN●

After giving me a short tour around her house, we ended up in the kitchen.

She headed towards the fridge and opened the door.

"Would you like something to drink?" She calls out to me while looking around, trying to figure out what she wants.

"Whatever you're having." I reply back.

She looked so sexy bent over while trying to grab us drinks from the fridge.

Before she stood up, I was now a couple of feet away from her. Just admiring her every curve.

She stands up and closes the door. Then right as she turns, she jumps a little.

"Sorry. I didn't mean to scare you." I said while feeling a bit bad.

"It's ok." She chuckled. "I just jump easily, I guess."

"I guess watching all those scary movies when you were younger has finally gotten to you." I teased.

"Shut up." She laughed. She then handed me a pepsi.

We looked at each other for a moment. Both feeling the moment and wanting to kiss each other. This time, for real. I wouldn't mess it up.

"So do you wanna go swimming?" She asked. Breaking the silence.

"Yeah." I replied while trying to hide my disappointment with a smile.

Shit! I thought to myself. Another opportunity that I again didn't take advantage of.

"Ok." She smiles. "I'm gonna go and get changed. Meet you at the pool in ten."

She then headed upstairs towards her bedroom after first telling me where I could change at in the bathroom downstairs.

It didn't take me long. Though of course, I had less to take off and put on than her.

So I waited out by the pool and right as I sat my drink down on one of the little tables by the lounge chairs. I turned and saw her walking out holding a couple towels and sunscreen.

She looked amazing in her tankini. Though I wished she would show me more.

Shut up! I told myself.

"Hey. So I brought some sunscreen out and some towels." She says.

"Thanks." I reply.

I quickly try and think of a way to make a move but not freak her out at the same time and ruin the moment. Except, she beats me to it.

"Do you think you can help me put some of this on my back?" She says while lifting the bottle of sunscreen up.

"Only if you help me with mine." I replied with a smirk.

"Deal." She said.

●LILY●

I hope that I wasn't getting mixed signals. I mean, I have never known Ryan to be shy or nervous. But ever since he came back, he has been. At least around me.

I lifted the bottle of sunscreen up and asked, "Do you think you can help me put some of this on my back?"

"Only if you help me with mine." He replied. Which sent tingles up and down my spine.

He took the bottle from my hand and I heard as he rubbed his hands together a little bit with the lotion. Then....came his touch.

He started with my shoulders. Then moved towards my neck. Then down my back. Rubbing it in softly and slowly. It felt almost like a massage. His hands felt amazing and made me bite my lower lip a little bit in pleasure. No man has ever touched me in this way before. I loved it. I never wanted him to stop.

Right as I felt I was getting too heated, I quickly turned around to face him.

"Your turn." I replied.

He smiles and hands me the bottle then turns around and I start rubbing the lotion together with my hands before placing them on his back. I start moving my hands up and down his back. While slowly going up to his shoulders, neck and then went back down to his back.

Again. Things got heated. I was a little bit embarrassed and didn't want him to see me like that. I was afraid of being rejected. Again.

So I acted upon the first thing that came to my head.

I squeezed a little bit more sunscreen on one of my hands and took in a breath and slapped the small pile in my palm onto his back. Not too hard, but enough to make him jump.

I giggled a little bit and then turned around and jumped into the pool real fast.

Before my feet hit the water, I heard him say, "Oh you're gonna get it."

When I came up above water, I saw a splash in front of me and noticed he was swimming under water towards me. I start laughing and try to swim away but he grabs my ankles and my head goes under water for a brief second before I feel him tickling me on my sides as he brings his head above water and turning me around to face him.

We look at each other for a moment and both smile. Then I feel his hands on my thighs and he wraps them around his waist and pulls me closer to him.

I then wrap my arms around his neck and the next thing I knew, he had one hand wrapped around my waist and the other one, lightly caressing the side of my cheek. I flinched at first but then immediately leaned my cheek into his hand more and he leaned forward and began to kiss me.

In that moment, I felt like I was experiencing a kiss that you only read in books and see on TV.

The kiss was passionate and more amazing than I had always dreamed of.

Thank goodness we were in water too. Otherwise I'm sure that he would have felt
The wetness that was in between my legs.

While taking a break to breathe a little bit. We leaned our foreheads against each other's and I noticed he was smiling and licking his lips. My god can he get anymore sexier?

"You don't know how long I have wanted to do that." He says in an almost whispered tone.

"And you don't know how long I've been waiting for you to do that to me." I replied.

He kissed me again and we splashed around and swam around in the pool and just had a great time together.

We both felt that a weight was lifted. And that telling each other how we felt, was long over due.

Next chapter tomorrow. :)
