Chapter 5 Shameless

The alarm went off at 6 in the morning. I turned it off but instead of getting up, I rolled on the other side and fell asleep again.

I only woke up when there was a loud bang from the living room.

'What the heck?' I thought as I slowly opened my eyes and picked up the phone to check the time.

It was 9:30 am.

DAMN! I am so dead! I have Stats lecture at 10!

"You are going to be late," I heard Betts shouting from the living room. Guess, she was already back.

"You should have woke me up sooner!" I yelled at her as I picked up a dark blue jeans and a black t-shirt from my wardrobe.

"I called you so many times, you dumbass," Betts annoyed voice came back at me.

After quickly putting on the clothes, I ran to the bathroom outside my room to wash my face and brush the teeth.

It took me 10 minutes to get ready. I didn't have time to eat breakfast. Guess I would just grab a coffee on the way to the lecture hall.

"I am going now. See you," I said to Betts as I closed the door behind me.

Thankfully, I made the class in time. In the middle of the class, I got a text message from Liam. We had exchanged phone numbers with everyone yesterday.

"Do you want to meet up for lunch?" He asked. "We can discuss how we are going to look out for materials."

"Sure…do you want to meet up in front of the Thai place at 1:15?" I texted him back. The Thai restaurant was few shops beside Grill & Bar.

"Okay. See you then," his reply came back instantly.

When I reached the Thai place around 1:10, I could see Liam already waiting for me at the front. He waved his hand when he saw me running towards him. I didn't realise yesterday, but now I could see that he was good looking. Tall, lean with a beautiful blonde hair.

'Not bad' I thought. 'It would be nice to have a boyfriend as good looking as him. Damn- I was again thinking of something crazy.

"Oh you didn't have to run," Liam said as I reached him. "I was just a bit too early for the meeting." And he flashed his beautiful smile.

Definitely a hottie, I thought again. Should I flirt a bit and seduce him? I wondered but after seeing that I was all sweaty from running, I gave up the idea.

"I guess I was too hungry," I replied back. He could feel the sarcastic note in my reply. He smiled as he opened the door of the restaurant and let me pass first. After saying thanks, I went inside.

"Did you just finish a class?" He asked me as we took a table near the window.

"Yeah, I had Stats- statistics I mean," I said, putting my back on the empty chair besides me. "What about you?" I asked him.

"No classes for marketing today. What do you want to eat? You said you were hungry." He asked me handing back the menu.

"I will get their small sea food noodle and papaya salad," I said without looking at the menu. I have been a regular customer of this place and knew what I wanted immediately.

He called a waitress and ordered the food. Then took out his MacBook. I guess this was discussion time.

I took out my laptop and asked him, "So, how do you want to do it?"

"Because we are looking at alcohol consumption, development and society, I thought it might be good to look at each area and then find the connection," he started to explain. When we finished the discussion and our lunch, it was already past 4pm. Wow, not bad, I thought to myself. He is definitely a good company.

"Shall we meet for coffee every two days to check on the progress," he asked me as we were about to leave the restaurant.

"Sounds good! Around 9," I looked at him to see if he was okay with the time.

He nodded in agreement. "By the way, tomorrow is weekend, so shall we start our meeting from next week?" He asked me. When he saw me agree to it, he continued, "then do you want to come to my place to pick up the book now? You can look over it during the weekend."

I was a bit surprised. This was just my second time meeting him and I was not sure if it was a good idea to drop by his place. But I didn't want to appear conservative either by saying no to a request by a new friend.

"Don't worry, it's not that far away," he said to me when he saw me hesitate for a moment. He might have thought that I was worried about the distance. "I brought my car today, so I can drop you later on as well." He smiled at me. I couldn't say no and so I followed him towards his car.

It really was not far away from the uni, perhaps 15 minutes drive. It was near by a train station as well. He stopped the car infront of a townhouse.

"This is it," he said driving his car to a garage. "I don't think the guys are in the house at the moment."

"Guys?" I asked him, surprised.

"We are four students from marketing using the place. It's easier that way," he explained. I understood. It was easier to stay together with your friends.

He unlocked the front door and invited me inside. It was very luxurious. The living room was bright and big with celing to ceiling window through which you can see an open swimming pool on the other side. It was definitely a super expensive house, that's for sure.

But before Liam could say anything, we heard voices coming from a room near the living area. And when it became clear what those voices were, I was embarrassed as hell. Whoever they were, they were pretty busy. We could hear the moans louder and louder.

"Harder, harder…" a woman's voice pleaded with whoever was with her. And she let out a loud moan of pleasure screaming "yes….please…yes.."

I was dumbfounded. And I thought there were only singles living here. Liam quickly cleared his throat and ran towards the door, trying to block me from looking at it.

"Mike, you there," Liam knocked at the door. "I got a friend over."

A few seconds later the door opened. I don't know what made me look, but I peaked from behind Liam. It was not Mike whom I saw but Josh.

He sure was in a rush; I don't see why he even have to come out of the room in that state.

He had nothing on his top. I could see his well built, sun-kissed upper body sweaty from whatever they were doing there. And as my eyes moved down, I could see that he was in a rush to put the pants on. The jeans he was wearing was really low; he had not even zipped it all the way- I could see a bit of dark hair visible near the unzipped area. And the bulging of something near the zipper was also too visible to not notice- it was almost trying to get out of that jeans- just a little moment and I felt that it would be out. As I realised how big the bulge was, my ears turned red.

"What the hell are you doing here?" Liam asked him in surprise.

"Couldn't take her to my place…had to ask Mike if I can play here for sometime," he said in a lazy voice. His voice was more hoarse than what I remembered from yesterday. Perhaps, it was because of all the moans. Damn, what was I thinking?

"Oh hey, Sophie," he waved at me when he saw me at the back. "Sorry, not in a state to come out and greet you." He gave a mischievous smile which showed that he was not sorry at all.

I knew he could see my ears turned all red- was it from embarrassment or excitement- I wasn't even sure myself.

"It's alright," I managed to reply him but I have no idea how I did it. "Sorry to disturb you. Liam, shall we pick up the book now," I turned to Liam and asked him.

Liam was taken back by my question but seem relieved to get out of the situation.

"Sure. I will go up and bring it. Do you want to sit in the living room?" He asked me as we reached near the stairs.

'No, I don't want to sit in the living room' I wanted to say to him but I just nodded in agreement. I quickly rushed back and stood at a corner which blocked the view of Mike's room. But I could still hear them. How could he go back and continue what he was doing, I asked myself. Shameless!

He didn't even close the door of the room now and so I could hear the voices clear and louder.

"Please….please….ahhh…ahhh…" I could hear the woman pleading him.

Shameless jerk!
