Amelia's mind races as she try to come up with a quick response while taking a sneak peek at Liam. He was still staring at her, so intensely.
Amelia quickly looked away and responded to Amelia's pending question.
"i felt so lazy to walk up the stairs" She said, hoping she really buys it this time.
Olivia looks like she was on verge of digging for more intel when she heard the low screech of tires. She runs toward the window, her eyes widening.
"Oh shit, mom is here!" She yelped, turning to stare at Liam and Amelia with panic written all over her face.
Liam peeked through the window as the sound of the car pulling into the driveway grew louder. He groaned, raking a hand through his hair.
"She wasn't supposed to be back until next week" He said looking accusingly at Olivia.
"What don't look at me like that, that was what she told me" Olivia said in defense of herself.
Liam's eyes scanned over the littered cups and bottles and he looks over at Amelia. "Mind grabbing the trash bags Amelia?"
Amelia nodded, gnawing on her bottom lip.
"I uhh-I have to get something upstairs, I'll be back!" Olivia rushed out, leaving Liam and Olivia in her dust as she rushed upstairs.
Amelia couldn't help but smile, shaking her head knowing Olivia probably wanted to escape her mom's incoming wrath.
"I don't think she'll come back dow-
She turned around only to stop mid sentence when she noticed Liam close to her, a little too close. They were nearly brushing against each other.
Amelia flushed, her tongue growing heavy.
"I-uhh
She took a step back only for him to reach out and stop her.
"Kitten" He said, his voice so husky and alluring.
Amelia looked up at him stunned. His grey eyes bore into her ocean blue ones.
"It was you last night wasn't it" Liam said hoarsely.
Amelia's heart skipped a bit, she could feel her cheeks grow even hotter as she realized what he was talking about.
"I...I don't know what you're talking about" She stuttered, taking another step back from him, but he followed closing the gap between them once again.
"Don't play games with me, kitten" He said his hand reaching out to touch her arm gently, sending a shiver down her spine.
Amelia's eyes widened, her heart almost leaped to her throat.
Soon her heart began to race as she tried to come up with a response. Liam's gaze was so intense that she couldn't think properly.
The memory of last night, of everything they did, came crashing back at her. It was a bit blurry but she remembered his touch, his lips on her skin, the way he made her feel.
Amelia shuddered at the thought.
"Liam," She whispered hoping his mom would come to her rescue by entering the house.
Liam started at her intensely, so intense that it felt like he was looking right into her soul.
Amelia bit her lips nervously, unsure of what to say, she didn't even realize she had started rolling a strand of her hair around her finger.
Liam looked at her action and took a step closer, his body now pressed against hers. His hand went to the small of her back pulling her closer to him.
"Answer me Amelia," he whispered, his breath hot against her skin. "It was you, wasn't it?"
At this point Amelia breathing wasn't stable anymore, her breathing had became rough, she was trying to ignore the way he was currently making her feel. At any moment now his mom would walk through that door.
And the second she thought that, the door opens.
Amelia jumped away from Liam before they could see their intimate position.
Amelia flushed under his stare and moved away from him to avoid feeling the way she was feeling at that moment.
She heard the shocked gasp of his mom followed by a yell his name "Liam Smith!!!!"
Liam winced and scratched his, he tore his gaze away from Amelia and looked in the direction of the door, he gasped "Dad!!!, you're back"
"Wanted to surprise you guys but I got surprised instead" Mr Smith said looking around the messed up hall.
"I heard dad's voice!!" Olivia's voice came from upstairs followed by the sound of someone running. "Daddy!!!!" She shouted immediately she saw her dad and ran to give him a hug.
Mr Smith had been on a business trip for almost a month now.
"This must be Ammy, how are you dear?" Mr Smith said and rubbed her head.
A few minutes later after catching up with their dad and a round of lecture from Evelyn. Liam, Amelia and Olivia were asked to clean up the entire house until it was clean.
Olivia wiped her eyebrows, "I can't believe I listened to you Liam!" She huffed, her back slouched in exhaustion.
