Being Pulled in a New Direction (Boyxboy)

Chapter 4

Aaron:

I ran up to Zayn's room. This was my moment. I would get time alone with Liam. I could see if he likes me. I could tell him I like him. It could be the difference between friendship... and something more. Was I moving too fast? What if he isn't gay? What if he is and i don't jump at the opportunity...

All these questions we running through my mind. I shook them off. I needed to find my swimming trunks.I walked over to my draw and started to rummage through the different drawers. After the third one i just took the next drawer out completely. Where the hell did Zayn put my bathing suit!! I took out the next one completely. You can say i was a bit in a rush. I found it at the bottom of the 4th drawer. UGH! It was almost as if Zayn knew about the swimming and purposely hid my shorts from me. I took off my shirt and sweat pants. I threw my sweats on Zayn's huge bed and put my shirt in his dirty clothes basket. I guess Zayn will tell me where I could wash my clothes. I took off my under garments and pulled my suit on.

I walked swiftly downstairs where i ran into Louis.

"Hey where is Liam?" I asked Louis.

"He's in his room..."

I went over to his door and knocked on it. "Hey Liam. Can I come in?"

"Yea sure." He yelled.

I opened the door a tiny bit. "Are you decent?" I asked.

"For swimming, yeah."

I opened the door and was taken back by the sight in front of me. He had his shirt off and was smirking at me. His beautiful chestnut brown hair, it would probably be long enough to reach his eyebrows but he quaffed it to the side. Then my eyes followed to his. They were chocolate brown, like Zayn's but different in a way... Then his nose. It was wide but extremely adorable. Followed by his lips. Perfectly full with a rich pink color. He was so perfect... I felt as if i had forgotten how to breathe.

He studied me, cocking his head. "Enjoying the view?" He gigled.

"Shut up..." I said, playfully punching him in the stomach. "So where are you planning on taking me swimming? Even though it's june, it's pretty cold out..." I said sitting on his bed.

"We have an indoor pool on the bottom floor."

"Oh that's cool!"

"Do you like swimming?"

"I love swimming!"

"Terrific! Also I figured I could take you out to eat. Where ever you would like..."

"You mean like... on a date?"

"Yea sure!" He caught himself. "I mean if you want it to be..." He said softly as his big brown eyes drifted to the floor.

I had butterflies! "I would LOVE to!" I jumped up and wrapped my arms around his neck and he in turn wrapped his around my waist. He pulled me close to him. The moment was so perfect.

I pulled away. "Can I borrow a towel?"

"Of course! I've got loads."He grabbed me a towel and another for himself. "Are we ready?" He asked me.

I nodded. He grabbed my hand pulling me along with him. He grabbed the apartment key and yelled "We'll be back guys!" The guys mumbled back some words i couldn't understand. We walked out of the door and pressed the elevator button to go down. When we stepped inside he pressed a button that read POOL & GYM. "The lift will take us right into the pool room." He explained.

Liam swiped the key to unlock the door to the pool. It was empty in there. Which was good because i wanted time alone with Liam. So we could do whatever we wanted without having to worry about who was watching. Well the pool was huge. It was an Olympic size pool. I looked to my left where I saw two average springboards and a high dive. Really high up. I knew exactly what I was going to do first! I threw my towel on the beach chair. Liam did the same.

"I wanna do the high dive." I said with a huge smile.

Liam chuckled. "Your too cute!" I smiled and rolled my eyes. "Go ahead Aaron! I'll judge your dive."

I walked to the ladder that led to the platform above as Liam sat on the side of the pool. As I got to the top I got kind of nervous. I mean it was like 15 feet up. "Li! I don't know if I can do it!" I'm not afraid of heights but I'm afraid of the falling feeling.

"I know you can Aaron! Just jump!"

I shook my head and sat on the edge letting my feet dangle.

"Do you want me to come up there Babe! I can give you a little push!" He smiled.

Babe?! I smiled. "Ok. Ok. I'll do it." I stood up. I took in a deep breath and jumped. It felt like i was falling forever before i hit the water. The water felt really good though. I popped my head out of the water and swam over to Liam.

"Well... Let me see. Your dive was brilliant. But you hesitated at the top. Soo. Humph. 9.5" He said with a cute crooked smile.

I laughed. "Ok cutie. Your turn"

He stood up and walked to the diving boards. I pulled myself up to sit on the edge of the pool. Instead of the platform he chose the spring board. I narrated.

"Liam Payne up on the springboard. Now he has done well on this before and he is definitely in his element. Just look at the concentration on his face."

He laughed. He got a small running start and did a fronflip into the water. He made it look effortless. Then he swam over to me.

"It was ok I guess." I teased. "I'm going to say... 6"

He smiled. "Anything I could do to change your mind?" He questioned me.

"Nope." i said.

He pulled me into the water and kissed my forehead. "You sure?" he asked. His lips not leaving my skin.

I shivered. It felt so good. "Not a chance Li." I managed to slip out of my lips.

He moved his lips down to my neck. Kissing me softly. "How about now?" He whispered.

"You're going to have to try harder then that Liam." I said softly. My heart skipped a beat and my stomach did backflips.

He slowly moved to my lips.

Our lips fit perfectly together. Moving in sync and mirroring each other with the others movement. I wrapped my arms around his neck and he grabbed the edge of the pool with both hands to steady us from drifting away. His tongue grazed my bottom lip asking for entrance. Which i granted in a heartbeat. He explored every part of my mouth with his tongue. I felt like fireworks were going off in my head and my heart beat felt like I had just gotten done running a marathon.

This moment was perfect. As perfect as perfection could be. Just like the boy attached to my lips at the moment. I couldn't believe I was kissing Liam. I was Liam's.
