Free Embracing Love by Delisa Lynn Page A

inside me that he wasn’t wearing a condom. So glad I started taking those pills last month. “The condom! Fuck! You had me so turned on I forgot to put it on.” “It’s okay, I’m on the pill now.” He smiled and rubbed his nose against mine. “That’s good L, now I will never have to wear one again.” I just laughed at him.
    “ I love every part of your body.” I giggled. “Lila I can’t stay long,” Liam whispered. “I know, my love.” I started to cry. “Don’t cry, my sweet L, I will see you on Thanksgiving.” “Promise?” I said. “I promise you, I will be back in your arms soon.” I thought, what would I ever do without his embrace? His kisses? His touch? I think I would die from a broken heart.
    I showered and hurried to class. I had never been this late before. I met Nikki for lunch and I told her about Liam stopping by. “Lila, you have sex written all over your face!”
    “ What? No I don’t. Do I really?” “No, you’re just glowing. I’m happy he swung by to give you a quickie, now you will stop being so damn sad when Brody and I get our groove on.” “Bitch please, I’m not sad. I hate hearing his moans.” “I know, he’s loud, isn’t he?” Nikki says.
    Evan texted me and wanted to meet for dinner. I felt bad. I needed to tell him I have a boyfriend. I just didn ’t want to hurt him. I loved hanging out with him and I know once I tell him about Liam it’ll all change.
    The days fly by and it ’s a week from Thanksgiving. Nikki is going to Ohio. Evan and Brody are going home to Utah. I’m going to miss hanging out with Evan but I’ll be with Liam. Do I tell Liam about Evan? I don’t want him to be jealous. I still hadn’t told Evan about Liam.
    I was having dinner with Evan, Brody, and Nikki before we all went our separate ways for the holiday. I decided it was time and I was going to tell Evan everything. But I chicken out. What the fuck is wrong with me? Ugh! He was such a great friend. I was really lucky to have him and I didn ’t want it to change.
    “ Lila, I’ll miss hanging out with you.” I wanted to say I will miss you too, but I will be home making love to my boyfriend all week. “You’ll have Brody.” “Not the same Lila, he isn’t as pretty as you are.” “I have to agree with you on that. I’ll call you when I get back.” He leaned over and kissed my cheek. “See you soon, darlin’.”

As my plane lands, I saw my parents waiting on me. I was so excited to see everyone. Although it had only been months since I left California, it seemed like years.
    Eric and Addison still hadn’t made it back. As we pulled in the driveway I got a text from Addie saying they were on their way. My parents were asking me millions of questions about school, my new friends, and my roommate, which they knew all along was my long lost best friend.
    About an hour after Addie ’s text she and Eric came in. I was so excited to see her. She asked if I had heard from Liam since his visit but I hadn’t and neither had she. Where was my Liam? Why wasn’t he here? He finally called and said he would be here on Thanksgiving, which was tomorrow. How the hell was I supposed to sleep? I couldn’t stop thinking about seeing his handsome face, kissing his lips, and laying in his arms.
    Thanksgiving was here and I still hadn ’t seen Liam. Ashton texted me and said to go to my parents’ beach house. I thought why the hell did he want me to go there? Ashton and I were on speaking terms, but I would never forget how he treated me.
    I went alone. I ’m glad I did because as I opened the door it was Liam standing there with nothing but a towel on. I wanted to rip that towel off his sexy body and fuck him on the floor. “Liam, oh my gosh! I have missed you so much. I was afraid you weren’t going to be here.” “Lila, I told you, I will never leave you!” “I’m starving. After I get dressed, do you want to grab some food?” “Do you want to come back to my
