Bad Ass Billionaire

Chapter 8

Lilly's P.O.V.

"Lilly can I kiss you?" I was totally, and utterly shocked. Thomas Wilson, the bachelor, wanted to kiss me. I only nodded and Thomas wasted no time closing the gap between us. I've always wondered what people meant by fireworks exploding in their stomachs when they kiss someone, but now I knew the feeling. Our lips moved in sync as Thomas brought me closer holding me in his arms. My hands moved to his hair and then to his face before making their way back to his neck. Thomas swiped his tongue across my bottom lips asking for an entrance, but I refused. If we had been in a more private setting I would have accepted.
Thomas pulled back breathing heavily with slightly swollen lips, indicating mine were swollen as well. He brought one hand up and caressed my face. "I don't think I can fall for you any more than I have." He said softly. Another song was already playing by now.
"I have to agree." I responded smiling.
"I know we decided to just continue on with our previous life, but I don't think I can anymore. You have given me everything those girls couldn't. I want to marry you. For real though. Not just for a year so our companies can merge, but for forever. I want you to be mine Lillian Cox. Mine and only mine." As he said this he looked in my eyes intently, I couldn't help but stare back at him. So much emotion was evident in his eyes, but vulnerability was one of them. Thomas then bent down on one knee again, but this time it wasn't fake. It was real. My eyes started watering and tears started falling as he grabbed one of my hands. "I know already gave you a ring, but I haven't really proposed. Lilly you've changed me in so many ways that I could never see happening
months ago. Before you came along I had no hope in finding love. I didn't even believe in it. But now I do. And you are the reason. Lilly I love you and I want you to be my wife forever. Please say yes and truly make me the happiest man in the galaxy."
     "Yes!" I shouted. Thomas jumped up and slammed his lips on my own. I kissed back, and heard cheers from the people around us. Crap. I forgot we weren't alone. Thomas pulled away and lifted off the ground spinning in circles. He set me down and kissed me once more. He pulled me to his side holding me close and I let my head lay on his chest. I looked up at his face and smiled. He was gorgeous and amazing, I couldn't think of a better man to spend my life with.

Thomas's P.O.V.

The party ended and as soon as Lilly and I got into the limo I slammed my lips onto hers. She leaned back into the back of the chair and I leaned with her. One of my hands was on her waist and the other on her face. I moved my lips against hers and she brought her arms around my neck. I slid one of my hands up to tangle up in her hair. I moaned in the kiss and pulled her closer.
Kissing Lilly was nothing I've ever felt before. With all my other flings it was just lust for sex. With Lilly I wanted to get closer to her. Something about her was special. The way she didn't care about formalities or being very proper. The way she ignored the paparazzi or anyone who told her what to do. She did what she loved and didn't think twice about it. She was kind, and compassionate, and cared for everyone around her. My flings were bitched and gold diggers, while Lilly didn't want to buy anything in fear that it would cost too much.
Lilly pulled away and looked in my eyes. She gazed me in a way no one has. In a way that wasn't lust or want. Just happy. And kind. And... love. An emotion I never thought I'd feel. A word I never thought I'd use when describing someone. I smiled at her.
"I can't seem to stop kissing you." I whispered, leaning my forehead against hers.
"I seem to be in the same predicament, Wilson." Lilly responded, calling me by my last name. I pressed my mouth to hers, but more gently this time. The butterflies in my stomach had returned as I moved my lips against hers. They were soft and plump and she was a great kisser. I licked her lips asking for and entrance and this time she opened up. Our tongues connected and it was nothing but pure bliss. Sadly, I needed to breath and pulled away, pecking her lips once more.
I looked in her eyes and whispered, "I love you."

Lilly P.O.V.

'I love you.'
Those words have been stuck in my head since Thomas had said them to me. Of course, I said them back, but only after after staring at him for a good minute. I mean come on. If the most handsome boy, who never in his life believed in love, said those words to you, you would be speechless!
It was 2 in the morning and Thomas and I got home and 11. I was dressed and ready to go to bed, but I couldn't will myself to sleep. His words replayed in my head thousands of times. I kept trying to rearrange the words in my head, but no matter what they always meant the same thing. Thomas love me.
"Ahh screw it." I said sliding out of my bed. I stood up and grabbed my white robe and exited the room. I walked through the halls and made my way to the kitchen. I opened the fridge and looking for something to eat, since there was nothing more I could do.
"What are you doing?" A voice asked from behind me. I jumped turned around and raised my hand to slap the person, but they caught my wrist before I could hit them. "Relax Lilly it's me, Thomas." He said releasing my wrist. I breathed a sigh of relief. "Now answer my question." He crossed his arms.
"I couldn't sleep," I shrugged. "So I decided to get some food. There is nothing else to do." I answered him. He just nodded and moved to grab a coffee mug.
"You want hot chocolate?" He asked as if it was nothing. Which it wasn't. At least for him.
"Sounds like the perfect time for it." I responded smiling, and leaning against the counter. Thomas quickly made our hit chocolate and when he finished, I quickly grabbed it and took a slow sip.
"So what were you planning on doing after you ate your food?"
"Not sure. Watch a movie maybe." I shrugged.
"Great idea. Want to watch in my room? It's closer and more of a selection." He suggested. I smiled and nodded fallowing Thomas to his room. I walked over to his bed and lied down on top of the comforter. Thomas came beside me, grabbing the remote on his way over to the bed. He lied down beside me and turned the TV on.
"What do you want to watch?" He looked at me as he asked the question.
"Not sure. How about Crazy Rich Asians?" I suggested. Thomas chuckled and turned the movie on. I leaned my head against his chest and Thomas slid an arm around my shoulders.
I'm not sure how long the movie had played or how far in we were, when I drifted to sleep.

Thomas's P.O.V.

I was watching the movie when I looked down at Lilly and saw her asleep. I smiled and brushed her hair with my fingers gently, so I wouldn't wake her. I moved over and got out of the bed, and walked over to where she was. Carefully I pulled the comforter over her body the went back and settled in the bed. I turned the movie off and lied down.
As I fell asleep my mind drifted to Lilly. Never in my life did I think I'd be doing this. Sleeping next to the woman I love and soon going to be marrying her. Lilly changed me, but I'm not sure how she did. That Lilly sure is something.

Ok I know this chapter sucks like hell, but bare with me. However I'm super excited at how well it is going. Though this does mean the story will end soon. BUT I will be writing another book. It will be slightly different but it'll be enough. See you soon!!
