My Best Friend's Brother | ✔

Chapter 24

Ariel's POV

Adam had led me back to the car. He brought me to a beautiful beach where we laid in the sand, with my head on his chest and his hand draped around me.

I was still a little flabbergasted with the whole situation on how we met and so forth so I couldn't help but question it a little more.

He had stated that he thought he stopped liking me around the age of thirteen or so, that was around the age that he started his rebel ways and his phase.

"Did you have a good time tonight?" He asked softly after the 10 minutes of silence we had just lying under the moonlit sky.

"Yeah, I did. Thank you." I whispered.

Adam kissed my forehead in return and I smile in satisfaction.

I take out my phone after a few seconds and see that it's 11:34.

"Adam, we should probably go, it's getting late." I murmur still looking at my phone to see if I have any messages on my phone from Libby.

"Adam?" I say once I realized that he didn't respond.

"Ad-" I say as I lift my head to look at him but is cut off by his voice.

"Would you be my girlfriend, Ariel?" He says quickly, still not looking at me.

I'm taken back slightly by the question. "Um, I-I, w-we..." I suck in a deep breath to stop myself from being a stuttering mess.

"I-I would love to.." I reply.

Adam let's out a sigh of relief and smiles sheepishly at me.

I smile back and rest my head on his chest and inhale his scent.

Adam Haynes is my boyfriend.

---------------------

After we left the beach about 20 minutes later, we decided to call it a night and go home. 

We walked up to his front door and I turned around to face him.

"Are you sure you had a good time?" He asked me for about the 20th time tonight.

"Yes, Adam.." I laugh. "...now stop asking." I finish.

We stand there awkwardly for about a few seconds until Adam finally breaks the silence.

"I guess we both go inside now and not just you." He chuckles, making me also laugh.

I open the door that was already unlocked since Libby said she left it open for us, for whatever reason. I guess I thought she would run down the stairs and bombard us with questions.

As soon as I open the door, Adam steps in, slams it shut and pushes me on it roughly. Not enough to hurt, just enough to... arouse me in unexplainable ways.

He slams his lips to mine, and I moan from the contact as he holds my face in both of his hands, pulling me closer to him. His lips move expertly with mine, almost perfect for each other. 

He slides his hand to the back of my neck, bringing his body flushed against me as if that was even possible.  

I pull back slowly, unsurely, not wanting this to go any further. As a result, he rests his forehead against mine, breathing heavily, as I am.

he slowly brings his thumb up, tugging at my bottom lip and then letting go, resulting in it popping back in its place. 

"Sorry, I just had to do that." He whispers.

"Um.." I say out of breath. "That's cool. Yeah... " I conclude awkwardly.

Adam smiles at me, separating our bodies from each other. "I'm going to take a shower. " I smile at him lazily still not recovered from the situation.
