"Mmmmmmmmm... God this is amazing." Liz smiled with pure contentment as she bit into her burrito. "You were right this place is heaven." She spoke while covering her mouth. Brian laughed at her, thinking that he loved how she took pleasure in the little things. He smiled warmly at Liz every thought of Allison gone. The pain that she had left him with seemed to have finally been stopped and he felt that warmth of happiness when he was with Liz. Even despite the drama. He didn't want to give her up.
"You're staring. Did I do something wrong?" She looked at Brian and felt the heat of self-consciousness rise to her cheeks. His tongue darted out to moisten his bottom lip as he ran a hand through his hair, giving it a messy, bed head appearance. His lips spread in a smile that made her heart melt a little every time.
He laughed slightly," No you did nothing wrong. I was just thinking about something." He trailed off. Dinner had been his idea and even though he had known Liz for years, and had always liked her, he felt the pull in his heart was too soon.
"What is it?" She looked concerned, and knew she was being nosey. One thing she had learned over the past couple of years was that if Brian Gamble wanted to share, he shared. He folded his hands under his chin and the tattoo down the back of his arm flexed and she couldn't help but stare as he began to rub his hands together.
"Just that you're beautiful. Are you okay with taking the rest to go? Maybe go back to your place for a movie?" He raised his eyebrows is question. She knew that if they went back to her place any movie would go unwatched and the food would probably go uneaten. She bit his bottom lip trying to look torn and failing. She smiled warmly.
"Lets go." Brian waved over the waitress and asked for the food to go as he paid. When they stood he took Liz's hand and entwined his fingers with hers, running his thumb over the back of her hand. Only letting go for the brief car ride to her apartment.
Liz dropped her keys in the bowl on the table as they entered her apartment getting chills as she briefly recalled what they had done one it. Brian's arms wrapped around her stomach and he kissed the nape of her neck. His intense gaze reflected in her family photo. She turned to him, wrapping her arms around his neck and kissing him deeply.
"You've gotten very...," she paused, searching for the word," ...affectionate tonight." She kissed him again as is hands slid from her waist to cup her bottom and pulling her deeper into his kiss. His tongue grazed her lower lip and she opened her mouth, beckoning his tongue with her own. He pulled away leaving her wanting more.
"Cherish this, it won't happen often." He smile, his eyes dark with lust as he kissed her again.
"Bedroom...now..." He spoke between kisses as he snaked his hands under her shirt. She smiled into his mouth and took his hand, leading him where he already knew to go. His shirt was over his head as soon as he entered the bedroom. His dog tags jingled as they bounced against his chest. He kissed her as he worked her shirt over her head, his warm hands pulling her by the waist.
Brian lowered her on the bed, intoxicating her with sweet kisses and love bites while his hands removed the rest of her clothes. Liz's hands ran over his chest and rib cage as he kissed the tender spot on her collar-bone and a moan of pleasure escaped her lips. He trailed kisses down her stomach and nipped playfully as he traveled further down her body. She ran her hands through his hair as he looked up at her, his eyes heavy with lust. He paused above her mound of red curls and gently pushed her legs open more. She gasped as he dipped his head down and traced slow circles around her swollen nub before sucking it between his lips. Causing her back as she moan his name.
Brian continued his slow torture of teasing her before lifting her further on the bed and kissing her deeply. He stepped away from her as he removed his pants, his darkened eyes taking in the full sight of Eliza's bare form in front of him, her face haloed by a mass of flaming red curls. He positioned himself on top of her kissing her with a need that filled every part of him. Her hands ran along his ribcage before she wrapped them around his neck.
Brian moaned as he pushed into her and she pulled him closer, his dog tags dragging along her skin. One rough hand ran down her side and along her thigh, taking pleasure in every sigh and moan that escaped her lips. Keeping a steady rhythm as he kissed her and tried to hold off for the moment when he felt her clasp around him. He felt her nails dig into his shoulders as she pulled him closer, moaning his name and some obscenity he couldn't understand between her gasps. She arched against his body as hers gripped around him. Brian's pace quickened as he felt his own climax approach, and he groaned into her neck when she pulled him closer as his climax hit him hard. He braced himself on his forearms momentarily as he shook against her. Her skin damp from the thin layer of sweat that had formed on them.
Brian rolled onto his back next to Liz and she moved and rested her head on his chest. Listening to his heart as it's beating returned to normal. Brian ran a hand under her hair and placed it on the back of her damp neck and breathed deeply.
"Well that was different." Her voice had an edge of sleepiness to it as he looked down at her.
"Yeah it was," He looked down at her, her eyes closed and her breathing steady. He moved her slightly and kissed the top of her head. "I think I might...I think I love you." He whispered but she was already asleep and didn't hear him say it.
