No Control

The fashion conference has been a great experience, but I’m happy I get to see Liam tomorrow.
As I make small talk at the final cocktail party, all I can think about is Liam. Caroline and I are chatting about some new designers we’ve met, when she looks behind me and gets the biggest smile on her face. I turn to see what she’s looking at. My breath catches in my throat as I lock eyes with the most handsome man in the world. “Liam.” I gasp, before running across the room to him. He smiles and starts towards me, when I reach him I leap into his arms. He lifts me up and spins me around. When he sets me down he holds me so tight, we both have tears in our eyes. “Liz, I’ve missed you so much. I couldn’t wait a second longer. It feels so good to hold you.”
I touch his face and his hair. “It’s really you. I’ve been so lost without you. But how are you able to be here?”
“The other lads are traveling now. You and I will leave tomorrow. I’ll cut it close but I should get there in time. I just couldn’t wait another day to be with you.”
Then his fingers are in my hair and his lips are on my mouth. It feels so good, so right, and I feel complete.
We pull back for a moment and I realize the whole room is watching us. “Liam, everyone is staring at us.”
“Let them look, they might learn something.” He winks before his mouth is on mine again and his hands move from my back, down to my ass.
I whisper in his ear. “You better take me to the room now. I can’t wait any longer.”
Liam smirks. “Let’s hurry.”
I wave a quick goodbye to Caroline as Liam takes my hand. How good it feels to have the spaces between my fingers filled with his again.
Unfortunately we aren’t alone on the elevator ride to the room. Liam squeezes my
hand and we just look into each others eyes. No words are necessary. Our eyes say it all. I move in and lay my head on his chest. He smells so good. Our hands are still locked together as Liam rubs my back with his other hand.
We finally make it to my floor and as we enter the room Liam looks around at all the roses and smiles.
“Is that a satisfied smile Payno?” I tease him.
He laughs. “I was hoping it would make a big impact, to show you how much I was missing you and how much I love you.” He runs his fingers through my hair.
I wrap my arms around his neck and tell him. “It worked.” Before kissing him.
Then our built up passion can wait no longer.
