The date gradually came to an end and Tom walked me to my car. We stood next the drivers door and I rummaged in my bag for my keys.
“I had a lovely time with you Elise” he stated and I smiled up at him.
“I did too” I lied. I thought about Liam and his dirty phone call for the majority of it and when I wasn’t thinking about the phone call I was thinking about f*****g him when I got back. Tom leant down and kissed my cheek. I unlocked the car and he opened the door for me.
“Thanks a lot for dinner” I said and as I stepped into the car.
“It was my pleasure, we should do it again sometime” he suggested and I smiled.
“Drive safe” he said closing the door.
I got home and walked through the front door to be greeted by my mum.
“How was it!” She exclaimed and a wave of embarrassment shot through me as she followed me into the kitchen.
“Yeah it was great” I responded and found Liam sitting at the table.
“Did you have fun?” She continued to interrogate.
“Yeah I did mum” I replied to her. Liam smirked at me and piped up.
“I heard that their menu can be quite limited, some people leave still hungry for more” I flashed him a look of warning but thankfully my mum didn’t notice his snide remark.
“Oh really? I’ve only heard good things” my mum responded and turned to the sink to wash up some pans. Liam looked at me seductively and bit his lip. I shook my head and tried not to smile.
“Actually, the menu had exactly what I wanted” I returned the cheeky comment. Liam’s smirk turned into a a grin as he tried to turn his attention away from me.
“Anyways, I’m tired and it’s Friday tomorrow so work will be busy. I’m gonna head of to bed” I yawned and said goodnight.
The next week was pretty boring. All I did was work, come home, completed some of the assignments on my course and then repeated it the next day. Not a lot happened between me and Liam, he still made flirtatious remarks when we were eating dinner and taunted me with his looks but that was about it. Although Thursday night he was extremely expressive about his frustration. He hadn’t had a date with a girl all week which mean he also didn’t have s*x. He had walked into my bedroom when I was working on my course and removed my laptop from my thighs. I was shocked at how forward he was when he wrapped his arm around my waist and laid me down on the bed.
“What are you doing Liam?” I shrieked and he placed his finger to my lips. He leant down to my ear and whispered “don’t make a sound”.
His fingers traced down to my chest and continued to my shorts. He scooped his hand below the elastic and on top of my thong. I gasped and he smiled. “Still not interested?” He softly asked and leant his lips down to connect with mine. Our lips entwined together whilst his hand pushed against my clit. Gentle moans escaped between breaths and I started thrusting against his hand.
“Tell me what you want” he whispered and I opened my eyes. “I want to feel you” I gasped from the anticipation of his touch. He went to move my throng to the side when all of a sudden we heard footsteps defending to the basement.
“Liam!” Mark yelled and he quickly shuffled away from me and sat opposite. I sat up sharply and tried to hide my expression.
“Liam!” He called again when he got to the bottom step.
“In here!” Liam responded and Mark entered the room.
“There you are, I’ve managed to land you a job working for John”. Liam’s face dropped with disappointment.
“John?” He exclaimed and his dad nodded proudly.
“Working in an office?” He tensed his jaw and Mark clocked on to his negative reply.
“Is... it a problem?” Mark asked and I am frowned.
“Why do you have to interfere all the time? I have been looking for a job and I’m looking for something I want to peruse as career, not be handed to me because it’s boring and no one else wanted to do it!” He yelled and I looked at him confused. His dad has just helped him out and he’s being really ungrateful about it. He is 3 years older than me and should have at least started climbing his career ladder by now.
“Liam...”
“Don’t get involved Elle” he snapped and I was taken back.
“I thought it would be a great opportunity for you to start earning some money, it doesn’t have to be long term!” His dad replied slightly annoyed by his disrespect. Liam grunted and stormed out of my room. Mark followed him and continued the argument from his bedroom. Minutes past and Mark had slammed Liam’s door.
“Your impossible!” He yelled and stormed back upstairs. I hesitated for a second before making my way do his room. I knocked lightly.
“Go away Elle!” He assumed and I opened the door. He was sitting there with one of his weights in his hands and he pumped it to his chest. He placed it to the floor and stared at me.
“Liam... what was all of that about?” I asked him and he huffed.
“It’s none of your business”
“Your dad was only trying to help. I’m sure he didn’t mean...”
“Elle, just leave!” He yelled and I scowled at him.
“You don’t know anything about me so just keep your opinions to yourself from now on” he snapped. I looked at him in a state of shock. He was so gentle and seductive when 5 minutes ago and now he’s back to his arrogant, arsehole self. Rage overcame me and couldn’t stop it from spilling out.
“Thank f**k your dad came in when he did. I nearly fell for you pathetic playboy ways then. Your a player and your ungrateful!” I yelled. Tears of anger welled up in my eyes and Liam watched as they fell. But he did nothing, he just turned his head away from me and replied in a defeated tone “just go Elle”.
