Chapter 46: A Week Of Surprises
I snuggled closer against Liam, watching the rest of the movie. When it was finally done, Liam went ho as usual to keep up the pretense for his parents. With my mom due ho tomorrow, we needed to make it look like he stayed at his house. I don’t think my mom would like to hear that the boy from next door sleeps with her daughter every night. I kissed him hungrily at the door, before skipping to my room, deciding on a nice long soak in the bath. I was a little sore from having sex, and on top of that dancing for hours this morning made my muscles a little tight. I slipped in the bath, closing my eyes, blissfully happy.
"Hey, you," Liam said from the door way a little while later.
"Hey," I greeted, not opening my eyes.
"Another cold bath?" he asked, laughing. I shook my head and glanced over at him. He was leaning against the doorfra, one leg slung casually over the other, his arms folded across his chest, a smirk on his face. He looked sexy as hell.
"Actually, it’s warm this ti. Want to get in?" I offered.
He looked a little shocked. "Seriously?" he asked, standing up straighter, looking ridiculously eager.
I laughed and nodded in confirmation. "Seriously."
Quicker than I thought possible, he was n**ed and in the bath behind , wrapping his arms around .
Sunday flew by incredibly fast. I was really excited to see my mom; I hadn’t seen her for just over two weeks. She wasn’t actually due back until next weekend but she wanted to co back this week instead. It was now just after six o’clock, and she was due ho any minute. I was sat on Liam’s lap in the lounge, practically vibrating with excitent. When I heard her car pull up outside, I ran towards the door, squealing happily.
Jake jumped up at the sa ti as
and grabbed
round the waist, laughing as he threw
on the sofa. " first, shrimp," he stated, running for the door ahead of , making
laugh.
I followed him out of the door and attacked my mom into a hug. "Hey, Jake. Hey, Amber!" she chirped, hugging us tightly. Liam went straight to the trunk and pulled out her luggage. When she pulled out of the hug she was smiling with tears in her eyes. "I missed you guys," she said, kissing us both happily, "Hey, Liam. Got a hug for ?" she asked, grinning.
He laughed and nodded. "Always, Margaret," he said, hugging her tightly.
"You got more handso," she stated, patting his cheek affectionately.
He laughed. "I don’t know about that," he answered, shaking his head, grinning. I bit my lip; he’d definitely got more handso in my opinion. My mom loved Liam, she always had done. He spent a lot of ti over at our place, and since my father left she beca really close with Pat and Rick once she was ’allowed’ to socialise.
"So, what have I missed?" she asked, looping her arm through mine, walking off towards the door, leaving the boys to carry her bags.
I grinned knowing that she was going to freak out when I told her about Liam. "Um, not much. I fell in love," I said happily.
She gasped and pulled
to a stop, looking at
so shocked that I couldn’t help but laugh. "You...You what?" she stuttered, looking at
with a bewildered expression.
I smiled and made her walk into the house, pulling her into the kitchen. "I got a boyfriend," I confird, grinning like a mad person.
"Oh, Amber, I never thought you would be able to! I’m so proud of you, honey. I know how hard it is for you to let people near you," she cooed, hugging
tightly, tears glistening in her eyes again. Liam and Jake walked in; both of them leaning against the kitchen counter. Liam shot
a little wink and I smiled in response. "Well, what’s his na? Do I get to et him while I’m here? Oh wait, does Jake know?" she asked, whispering the last part, probably thinking she was dropping
in sothing with my overprotective big brother.
I laughed and looked at Jake who was in the process of glaring at Liam again. "Yeah, Mom, Jake knows," I confird, chuckling.
"Well? Who is it? What’s he like?" she asked, beaming at
excitedly.
"Well, mostly he’s a pain in the ass. He’s cocky and way too confident. But on the plus side, he’s extrely hot," I stated, watching Liam’s face as he tried not to laugh.
"Looks don’t last long, Amber! You shouldn’t base a relationship on how soone looks!" she scolded, her eyebrows knitting together in disapproval.
I couldn’t help but laugh. "Don’t worry, Mom, I’ll kick him to the curb when his looks go," I joked.
"You’d better not!" Liam warned, moving to my side, wrapping his arm around my waist.
My mom looked between the two of us a few tis, a shocked expression on her face. Her eyes flicked to Jake, her expression bewildered and confused. Jake nodded sowhat reluctantly. All of a sudden, she started laughing and shook her head. "I should have known! All that teasing and stuff, I didn’t realise it was sexual tension," she said, laughing harder as Jake snorted angrily.
"I don’t want to know!" Jake growled, covering his ears quickly, shaking his head as we all just laughed.
My mom pulled
into another hug. "I’m so pleased for you, Amber. He’s such a good boy," she whispered.
"I know he is," I agreed as she let
go. I took hold of Liam’s hand, pressing my side against his. I couldn’t help but wish I could take him in my room and have him rub his hands all over my body again, I hadn’t been with him since this morning and it felt like forever.
