Annihilation

Chapter 15

I am not supposed to yearn so
Always wishing you were here
But i hunger for your kisses
And i long to draw you near

Meghan

"Bartender! Bartender?" Jackson screamed leaning over the bar or should one say falling. One arm hanging off, his face curled into the crook of the other, he hollered " I will have three shots of grey goose! Or is it geese? Fuck it will have a shot of grey geese"

"Aaaand that's it you're officially cutoff " Meghan said signalling the bartender away.
"What? Noooooo...i need something to get that thing we did on the dance floor off my mind"
"You mean dance?" Meghan asked with amusement
"Yeah that it was..." Jackson shudders "imagine dancing with your brother like that"
Meghan didn't have a brother the closest thing to her when she was a child was Michael and ignoring his general assholery these days dancing with him the way she danced with Jackso-
"Okay . That is SO not the expression i was going for!." Jackson groaned , then turned towards the bar and screamed" Hey! Where are the geese?!!"
"Okay that's it we're getting out of here before they throw us out"Meghan says gathering her purse
"I am gonna go to the washroom. Do not move. Do not order grey 'geese'. And do not traumatise the bartender anymore."
"Hey! He likes it. Don't you Sven?"
"His name is Christoff"
"Have you not seen Frozen Meghan?. Wait that rhymed.I can totally make a song out of it"
"Stay here" Meghan says rolling her eyes at him yet she couldn't help the chuckle that escaped her. Turning she started walking down the corridor to the washrooms thinking about what a crazy night this had turned out to be she turned towards a line longer than great wall of china and stopped.
Okay so maybe it wasn't as long as the great wall but it was close enough.
Sighing Meghan turned around. She could get home faster than this.
Walking back , she pulled out her phone and just as she was about to message Jackson she was pulled by a hand on her forecep. A scream lodged into her throat as a hand covered her mouth .Clawing at the arms holding her captive, she kicked out as she was dragged through a door . Screaming she bit the hand covering her mouth. Fear rushed through her veins and only when did she hear the man curse did it die down and turn into something even dangerous. Hot scaling red anger filled her as she turned around and faced Michael
"Are you out of your fucking mind?!"
Meghan said, moving in pushing his chest,trying to shove him only to slam back into the wall by the rebound force. Fucking immovable man.
When he said nothing back Meghan looked up at him and lost her breath as her eyes connected with his.
Heat flamed in his eyes, ricocheting and burning her with its intensity. Meghan took a step back . She had seen him in his every mood but never like this. Breathing in deep she watched as his eyes dropped down travelling up the length of her body and then back to her face and a shiver so wicked that it be-spelled her,captured her body.
"M-michael?what-" Meghan lost her voice.
A smirk curved his lips as he stepped in closer, caging her in .Meghan pressed her back into the wall. A hair's width of distance between them she looked up at him, waiting for him to say anything as he stared down at her tilting his head to the side. His fingers traced hers , circling her wrist as he brought her hand up between then. "You know," he whispered low, looking down to where the stamp sat on her wrist"i always thought you'd get serenity"
He traced the word with his thumb and then looked up at her
"Never guessed trickery would fit you so fine" he said as he brought her hand up above her head and leaned in. Startled by the move meghan looked at him. Adrenaline fusing into her veins she breathed in deep,Meghan breathed Michael in as she succumbed to the pull between them. With hooded eyes, she waited knowing he wasn't finished just yet and scared because she didn't ever want him to end this ,whatever this was.
Pushing herself up on her tip toes she held his stare "And?" She asked , testing him, playing with fire craving the burn that will follow.
His lips twisted to the side as a dangerous glint entered his eyes, bending down he said "Never thought preppy was your type either."
"Never thought dumb blondes was yours" meghan replied refusing to back down.
"Hmm.." he said leaning in close, bringing his mouth a whisper away from her neck , a shudder that had nothing to do with with the cold that surrounded them rushed meghan as she stood incapacitated. He trailed his lips up her neck and traced the shell of her ear with his nose speaking low he asked "Is that what this is about , me and Caroline? Did you get jealous,angel?"He said as his thumb continued tracing small circles on wrist just above her nerves and she wondered if he could feel her erratic heart beat. "Did you imagine it was me,then? When you held him , when you danced with him, did you wish it was me? Tell me , when you saw me whisper into her ear" he said biting her ear lobe" did you wish it was you?"
Meghan closed her eyes unable to do anything than stand there.
She licked her lips as he brushed his lips lightly on the crook of her neck
" Tell me, Meg. Tell me is this what you wanted when you decided to tease me with him?" He brought his hand up and put it gently on the nape of her neck as he looked down at her
She looked at him , completely at sea, she didn't know how to handle this Michael. Trying to gather some semblance of control she uttered a single word hoping it wouldn't sound as weak as she felt against him
"N-no" she whispered then cursed her lack of composure.Dropping his head he let out a little chuckle and said "Well, i think you are lying"
He said before moving to take a step back but before he could meghan took one forward to match his.

She was done playing this game with him. She won't step down this time . She moved in closer, rising on her tip toes she whispered in his ear "and you're telling me" she started bringing her hand up around his neck " That when i was with him, you didn't want to be right there with me? You didn't want to be the person that they saw me with?Holding me so that they couldn't take their eyes off us" she looked at him , feeling his arms come around her " the same way you couldn't . Wanting, wishing it was them instead. You're telling me you didn't want to rip his hands right off me the same way i did hers off you?"
"
What if, I didn't?" He said in a low voice. His eyes betraying his words he looked at her . Meghan smiled into the crook of his neck, flicking his ear with her tongue and then biting down lightly Meghan whispered " Well, i think you're lying".
She leaned back as he looked at her his eyes burning with something long coming and meghan knew that they were standing on the precipice of something more. Now it was upto them to choose one side of a fine line.
Tracing her lower lip with his thumb , Michael looked down at her before saying "fuck it"and pressing his lips against hers as she welcomed him in. His tongue intertwined with hers as they tried to fight their frustrations with each other away. Bringing his hand up to palm her cheek,Michael tilted his head angling in deeper trying to reach deep inside her . Walking back, meghan's back hit the wall as michael surrounded her. Caging her , drowning her in him and she never wanted to come up for air ever again. She clutched onto him as she felt every part of him press against her. She tasted him, so purely Michael that it unearthed her. How many times had she had dreamed of this very moment. Letting her fantasies take control she put flicked his lip with her tongue before diving in again . Michael's hand reached from underneath her dress tracing the inside of her thigh and she yearned for it move further up. Moaning she threw her head back as his lips left hers and met the crook of her neck just as she wrapped her arms around his neck, holding onto him . She watched as he kissed his way down her collarbone . The strap of her dress fell off her shoulder exposing her skin to the cool winter air. She shivered though for an entirely different reason.Looking back at her , heavy eyes dilated Michael had a look of pure bliss which she was sure mirrored her very own . She leaned into him. Their breathing laboured as they stared at each other.
"Angel" Michael said and meghan wanted to stay just here with him. To ignore the people they had been for the past months and just be like this. She wanted to kiss him again to lose herself in him . To be reckless . To be with him.Leaning in , her forehead pressed against his
A phone rang out and they broke apart , startled. Michael reeled back like he had been shocked out of stupor .Righting her dress, Meghan tried to gain her composure. Michael was looking at her but she couldn't bring herself to meet his eyes. Afraid of what she will find there. She started looking for her purse
Michael answered his phone "hello?Yeah. Yeah i am here. No, i have it.Nah it's fine. I will call you back okay?. Yeah okay."
Meghan needed to get out of here . She looked around unable to spot her purse . When she felt his fingers , holding her chin he made her look at him.
"Angel, I..." he started, moving towards her.Meghan looked up at him ,waiting for him to find the words.
When he didn't say Anything . Meghan said " That..um...that was..."
But before she could finish her sentence Michael leaned in tucking her hair behind her ear he cupped her cheek "It was everything ,love.And i wish i could stop this moment here and remain with you in it till it all goes away" He said and meghan leaned into his hand. Seeing the man she had grown up with in these stolen moments . The one she loved. "This is not how i'd imagined it to be" he whispered brushing his lips softly against hers.
"What is going on Michael?"Meghan asked cupping his hand on her cheek with her own " Tell me and we will make it go away. Just tell me."
Michael looked at her once more before stepping back. "We'll talk about this tomorrow,okay?Now, how are you getting home? Is he dropping you off?"
Michael said, almost growling in the end. Meghan rolled her eyes.
"Jack is gay Michael" Meghan said moving to get her purse once spotting it.
Looking up at Michael's confused expression she almost chuckled. "But didn't you kiss him?"
Meghan raised an eyebrow waiting for him to figure it out and then regretted telling him in the first place when a devilish smirk curled up his lips.
"Guess trickery really is you.But i guess  i can't be too mad at you if it makes me your first kiss"
A blush creeped up Meghan's cheeks as she tries to hide her embarrassment. "I guess it does" she says before turning away from him heading for the door.
"Meghan?text me when you reach home okay?"
"Yeah okay."
She says without turning.Smiling she makes a beeline for the bar where Jackson is sitting or falling. Again. Objectivity.
When he looks up at her he narrows his eyes and says "You're looking way too happy for someone who just waited half an hour to get to the washroom. And why is your lipstick smeared?"
"What?!" Meghan asks going to wipe her mouth with the back of her hand
"Aha i made you check. Spill the beans. What did you do?Or who did you do" Jackson says wiggling his eyebrows.
Sighing Meghan said " Come on. Let's first get out of here. " she says .
