Chapter 38

I took Clara by her small hand, leading her out into the warm sunlight that instantly burnt your skin in the most satisfying way. Our footsteps creaked the wooden floorboards of the oak decking, the shine reflecting on our skin and as I looked over at Clara, everything felt surreal.

"What are you staring at?" She asked.
I smiled back at her, my lips pressed together as I shook my head slightly and squinted my eyes from the bright sun.
"What?" She asked again, a small laugh trickling off her tongue.
"You." I answered. I dropped her hand and moved behind her, my arms snaking around her waist and my chin resting on her head. As we swayed I moved my head to her shoulder and kissed gently at her neck, her skin so smooth and soft as she tilted to the side allowing more access for me to explore.
"Why?"
Clara moved her face to meet mine, her lips so close to mine that I could feel her breath on my skin. Her eyes sparkled as I looked intently into her hazel pearls.
"Why not?" I whispered, a smile stretching onto my lips as my eyes flicked between hers and her lips, watching both brighten. "You're beautiful."
She bit her lip softly; shook her head side to side discreetly and her hair swayed across her face in the motion.
"Don't say you're not."
"Shawn." She smiled weakly looking back up into my eyes which had at some point drifted down to our feet. She blinked twice, maybe three times before letting out a gently exhale and emitting another smile to me. "I just don't know how I got so lucky."
"I'm the lucky one." I said quickly.

Before she could say anything I gently placed my lips against hers and felt the fire ignite between us, the tingle on our lips getting more irresistible every second.
As the kiss for more passionate and heated Clara slowly moved her body to face me, her hands running up my torso feeling every inch of my skin, creating goosebumps wherever her fingers trailed. They finally reached the back of my neck, where she gently scratched as I pulled at her small frame so it was pressed up against mine.

I took a few steps forward as I graded my tongue against her bottom lip, to which Clara denied, my moving forward made her move back until she hate the railing of the deck. My hands came firmly to her waist and I picked her up keeping our lips together as I placed her on the wooden bannister. My body fit between her legs and I massage her thighs gently as she ran her fingers through my hair. I once again grazed her lip with my tongue and when she denied again I squeezed harshly on her leg causing her mouth to open and I slid my tongue in. Our tongues collided and from past experiences Clara knows I like to be in control and I took dominance of her mouth.

I continued to run my hands up and down her thighs, sometimes inching a little further and reaching her bum as she rocked forward on the railing as we made out.
I used one hand to push her hair behind her ear and I held her jaw steady as I became more eager.
A loud wolf whistle broke apart our lips and we both turned to see Geoff, Teddy and Andrew walking up the path, large suitcases trailing behind them.
"Fuck." I muttered and quickly put on a smile and waved at the three Cheshire grins and giggles.
"What?" Clara asked.
"Well, now I can't fuck you can I?" I turned back to Clara and put my hands either side of her body on the railing.
"Shawn Mendes." She threw her head back laughing. "You are impossible!"
