Ch. 32

Ch. 32 - Liam

As soon as our lips touch, I feel nothing but pure bliss.

Finally. She’s finally giving me chance.

At first, she wasn’t exactly responding because of the shock she was in- even though I practically showed that I was going for it and I told her to go with it.

After a few seconds passed by, she finally started to kiss back slowly, keeping up with my pace. Whilst I pull up my left hand and gently caress her cheek, she gently grasps the hem of my shirt. 

After what seemed like forever, we both knew we needed to pull away from the lack of air.

When we pull away from our each other’s lips, I put my forehead against her own.

As we lay on each other’s forehead, we’re still trying to catch our breath from our kiss.

I chuckle as my left hand is still caressing her cheek.

“So did you like it? Was it better than your previous kisses that you’ve shared with any other guy?”

Honestly, I was a tad bit jealous of the thought of her kissing someone but it was only a bit.

Just a pinch. Like… a really small pinch.

Ok… maybe a bit more than a pinch but it didn’t matter anymore because those guys are in the past.

“I-I’ve never kissed anyone up until now…”

My eyes widened with surprise.

So I’m her first? Woah… That’s… amazing. Really amazing, actually.

This time I take both my hands and gently hold her face.

“Well, then that means I’m going to be your first in many things,” I smiled.

She quickly returned the smile and shyly looked down at her hands, which were still holding onto the hem of my shirt.

I slightly turn my head to the side to get a better look at her precious face. I noticed that she’s biting her lips, looking focused with her thoughts, which brought me curiosity as to what was going through her mind.

“You mind telling me what you’re thinking about, Girly?” I softly whisper.

She lets out a long sigh.

“I just… can’t believe this is happening right now.”

“What part of this can’t you believe?” I ask.

“You.”

I frown with confusion.

“What do you mean?”

“I just can’t get my head wrapped around as to how someone like you can come to like someone like me,” she whispered, playing with her hands.

I pull my head back as I let out a laugh. Anna looks at me weirdly as if I had a problem. I take a grasp of both of her hands and look at her captivating, brown eyes.

“Well, I don’t know how I didn’t come to notice someone like you sooner. I mean seriously, you’re the type of person that no one can miss, especially with that sassy attitude of yours,” I jokingly tell her.

“Hey! There’s nothing wrong with being sassy, ok?”

“Never said there’s was something wrong with it.”

I lift both her hands up to my lips, gently laying a kiss on them.

“I like you. Like, I really, really like you. I like you so much up to the point that I can’t get you out of my head. I like you so much that I want to be the first person you talk to when you wake up and be the last before you head to sleep. I like you so much that I want to be the person to be your first in many things after having the pleasure of giving you your first kiss. I like you so much that… that I can’t get the thought of wanting to kiss you breathless because of how much I adore you.”

By the end of my little confession, I feel my heart beating at a hundred-miles per hour.

“Then don’t think about it Liam,” she whispered gently.

God… she’s going to be the death of me.

“Just let it happen.”

I smiled. She had guts, have to admit that. She said the same thing I told her.

After kissing multiple times, we managed to actually calm ourselves down, deciding to go to her amazing living room.

We are both currently sitting on the couch, enjoying the pepperoni pizza that I brought over.

As I was eating pizza, I got a quick flashback.

A flashback that included Anna and her bruised face.

With that, I put my pizza down on small table in front of us and turn to Anna. She looked at me from the corner of her eyes, confused as to why I suddenly stopped eating.

She slowly put her half-eaten pizza and put down the plate right next to mine. Taking a napkin, she wiped the corners of her mouth.

She fully turned me, with a curious yet confused face.

“What’s up? How come you stopped eating so suddenly?”

I had to ask her now. If not, then I don’t know when I’ll get a chance like this. But I do feel like with this question that I’m about to ask, this moments that we’re sharing will be ruined.

“What happened that night you babysat my brother? Who did that to you?”

Evil aren’t I? :D
