I cupped my hands around Liam's face as I leaned in to kiss him.
His lips were already slippery from lip-gloss ,when they parted I could taste a bitter sweetness in his tongue .
I knew how obsessed he got with candies sometimes . He had his favourites stuffed in his desk , pockets .
I laughed at his childishness
" What is it ?," he asked
" You were eating candies again ," I told him lightly pinching his cheek .
This cuter side of him made him look more adorable.
" Let's play a game," he offered ," If you can guess the flavour you can tell me to do whatever you want and there will be three chances . If you fail , you need to do whatever I want ."
I thought for a while , simple enough . I had a pretty good idea what was his favourites among the candies .
" Alright ," giggling I leaned closer to him . I thought that he would get shy as I put my tongue inside of him . But he did not .
His gaze weighed on my heart , making me fluster. Shouldn't it be the opposite?
He stayed still as I rolled my tongue in his mouth . Under my fingers ,I could feel his neck getting hotter and hotter .
My skin tingled even if he was not doing anything .
When I pulled back from him , he looked dazed . I could see how red his face was . I knew that he was holding his breath .
He still managed to give me a sly smile ," Well ? Tell me your answer ."
" Err , coffee ? ," that was the first taste I could think of on my tongue.
His smile widened .
" Sit on my lap , Julia ."
My heart was a mess as I climbed on him . With a yank he pulled my legs around him .
Suddenly I was conscious on the thin shirt and shorts I had wore to sleep with .
I knew that he had seen me naked . But not on the sofa , not in the dining room like this - I felt exposed .
Even with the door locked , I was drowning in embarrassment.
" Try for your second time ," Liam offered .
As I bent to touch his mouth again , I felt his hand slipping inside of my shirt .
" Liam ?," my voice broke .
" Shh, losers don't have a say."
Liam did not move his lips an inch but I had to part them with my tongue. He did not kiss back as I traced my tongue inside his mouth the second time . Just his hands carassed down my waist .
It was difficult to concentrate.
I shivered under his touch almost accidentally biting his tongue off .
" I told you to find the flavour ,not eat me ," he sounded breathless," Did you find it this time ?"
His finger circled on my back . I was losing all my reason . I blurted out the first thing that came to my mind , which was his scent ," uh ,Mint ?"
" Are you being wrong on purpose? ," he said , though clearly looking pleased with it ," Julia , unbutton your shirt then ."
My head felt light from his touch . Every part of me felt sensitive like electric running down my muscles.
It was this sense of pleasure that was making me lose myself.
" Julia , if you don't follow the order ,there will be a punishment."
He did not mention about 'punishment' before though .
My hands trembled as I started unbuttoning my shirt . When I looked back at him , I shivered under his gaze .
He stared at me like he was going to eat me alive . And a part of me wanted him to do it , right there and then .
I knew that he had seen each piece of my skin. But undressing as he watched was much more embarassing than I had thought it would be . Like I was serving myself on a platter for him . It did not help how close he was with my legs wrapped around him .
Like I was shamelessly begging him to take me to the bed . I kept the shirt on me as they barely hid what were the impotances .
He sucked in a deep breath as he stared at me ,"You are teasing me , aren't you ? With covering yourself half way like that ," his hand wrung in my shorts like he wanted to tear it away ," Your final chance ."
This time when I kissed him ,I could feel his tie ,his silk shirt on my skin . I could feel the sweat on his neck on my fingers.
Even in this cold weather , his skin was feverishly hot , so was his mouth . I felt like my insides were melting under his carasses.
" Your answer ?," he asked in just two seconds , clearly getting impatient.
" It's chocolate, isn't it ?," I asked .
He paused for a second , and then he said ,"'Wrong , again . Julia , undress me this time ."
It was not as easy as he had said .
He put his mouth on my neck sucking in my skin with his lips while his tongue tickled me .
My legs gripped around him tighter as I tried to remember how to unfasten a tight and remove a suit. But it was difficult to think with his fingers running down my skin. It was driving me crazy how soft yet electrifying his hands were .
I barely had managed to remove his coat and tie as he reached centre of my chest. Touch of his soft and wet tongue was so thrilling that I bit my lips so I would not start moaning accidentally.
" Liam , let's go to the bed ," I trembled like a leaf in his arms .
He grinned like a devil ," Aren't you being too impatient?"
With a swift motion he pushed me on the sofa so he was on top of me .
" Go on ," he urged me to finish unbuttoning his shirt as he dipped his face to lick at the back of my ear.
" I can't think straight," I admitted my defeat
" I did say that if you can not finish the task you will get punishment ."
I stared back at his blue eyes . The longing in them made me pull myself closer to him .
I wrapped my arms around his neck .
Wasn't it everything I wanted ? To be desired as much as I desired him?
I knew that tiny part of me still hesitated to be this close to someone. But I knew how love works.
It is to let go of the fear and to have faith .
" I don't care ," I told him ," I am not scared of punishment."
" Good ," he said, he was breathless as if he was drunk just from tasting my skin ," Then I can teach you something today ."
A small panick rose in my neck ," Be gentle .... please."
I wanted to remind him that I was new in all of this .
He kissed my cheek before throwing his shirt on the floor ," Always."
For a second , I got a glimpse of a brown candy wrapper that was peeking from inside his suit pocket which was now lying on the floor .
I was pretty sure that brown ones were used for chocolates .
