The Way Back to You

Chapter 23

Adam smiled as Fiona leaned her head against his shoulder as they watched a movie on his couch. He pulled her closer, kissing the top of her head softly.

They had the house to themselves for the day, thankfully his father and Drew understood how much they needed to spend some time alone and, after some urging from Omar, Audra finally agreed to go out for the day. Fiona was leaving early the next morning and Adam was happy to be able to spend time with her uninterrupted.

After spending most of the morning in his bedroom, Adam and Fiona finally emerged and he made her breakfast. By early in the afternoon, they curled up on his couch and began watching movies.

When she pulled out a Robert Pattinson movie for them to watch, he rolled his eyes. When he saw Claire from Lost show up on screen, he perked up slightly which made her laugh.

Halfway through the movie, he heard her sniffle. He put a finger under her chin and tilted her head so he could look at her. "Why are you crying?"

"I know how it ends," she said simply.

He kissed her forehead softly and wiped away a tear. "I get to pick the next movie."

"And what movie would that be? Transformers?"

He shook his head. "I was thinking Say Anything." He laughed when she raised her eyebrows. "What? You know I have a soft spot for movies from the 80s."

"I know. But I always thought you meant the original Batman or Star Wars or Indiana Jones."

"I see those enough by myself," he told her, shrugging one shoulder.

"Or we can just forget the movies," she suggested.

"And do what?" he asked, before it dawned on him when she meant. "Oh." He smiled. "Yeah, we could do that."

She smiled and kissed him. She began leaning forward, but he countered her and gently pushed her onto the couch until he was laying half on top of her. Slowly, his hand moved to her stomach.

She gasped softly when his fingers slipped into the waist of her pants, tearing her mouth from his. He froze, but didn't move his hand. "What?"

"We shouldn't do this here," she told him.

"Why not?" He kissed her neck softly. "No one's gonna be home for hours."

She bit her bottom lip when he pulled back to look at her. He wasn't going to continue unless she wanted him to, but he left his hand on her stomach, caressing it softly. She had to admit, it would be nice to change things up a bit. She loved being with him, in the moment, the setting didn't matter to her but his bed was getting a bit boring.

Finally, she smiled. "Keep going."

He kissed her again and reached inside her panties to touch her.

She moaned against his mouth. No matter how many times they did this, she would never get used to how good Adam's fingers felt against her.

There was only one thing that felt better.

He seemed to read her mind, because suddenly he broke their kiss and began removing her pants. He slowly pushed her shirt up to kiss her stomach before he ran his hands up her thighs, slowly parting them.

He kissed the inside of her right thigh softly before he draped her leg over his shoulder. Finally, his lips met her other set of lips. She gasped softly as he licked her and moved two fingers inside of her.

The front door opened and closed, something they were only vaguely aware of in the moment.

"Um…"

Adam's brother voice made them both open their eyes quickly. Drew was standing with his back to them. Adam separated himself from her and threw himself over her to cover her, but he knew Drew probably already got an eyeful.

"What are you doing here?" Adam demanded. "I thought you were gonna spend the night at Bianca's."

"She got sick. Sorry."

"Well, we're kind of in the middle of something."

"Yeah. Sorry," Drew said again.

Adam stared at his brother for a moment, who had turned around and was now looking at Fiona. "Leave!"

"Right," Drew mumbled. He began walking away, not taking his eye off of her.

Adam briefly considered getting up and chasing Drew, but if he did nothing would be covering Fiona. Finally, the older boy disappeared up the stairs.

Adam sighed and looked apologetically at his girlfriend. She groaned, her head falling onto a throw pillow.

"Sorry," he said. "I didn't think he'd be home."

"Can you get my pants, please?"

He picked her pajama bottoms and panties off the floor. He moved off of her as she got dressed. "Are you ok?" he asked softly.

She let out a quick, humorless laugh. "I'm fine. Your brother just saw me half naked, but I'm fine."

"Maybe he didn't see anything," he said, shrugging.

"Adam, please." She stood to pull her bottoms on. On the bright side, if there was one, she wasn't completely naked.

He kept his head down. "Sorry," he mumbled.

"It's not your fault," she told him, holding her hand out to him.

He looked at her again, raising his eyebrows.

"Come on."

He took her hand and slowly stood. "Are you taking me to the firing squad?"

She shook her head as she led him away from the couch. "Upstairs," she told him.

He smiled. "You want to?"

She turned to him just before starting up the stairs and kissed him. As she wound her arms around his neck, pulling him closer, it was obvious her desire for him had not waned.

Her lips separated from his, but he quickly grabbed her around the waist and pulled her back, kissing her again.

"Be good," she whispered, pulling away from him again. She took his hand once more and led him up the stairs.

"I should go," Fiona whispered as she stood in Adam's arms near the security gate of the airport.

He nodded and slowly released her. The weekend had gone by far too quickly. Thankfully, his mother let him go to school late so he could go with her to the airport, but with security checkpoints he felt like he was losing an extra hour with her.

"It's only a few weeks until winter break," she reminded him, noticing his frown.

He smiled and nodded again. Three weeks. Just three weeks until they would have almost a whole month together.

"I'll see you then," he said softly.

She placed a gentle kiss on his lips before she stepped away from him. "I'll call you," she told him.

He nodded once more. "See you soon."

Fiona hesitated as she looked at Adam. She wanted so badly to stay with him. To go back to his house and lay down in his bed and just hold each other for hours.

"Go," he said, seeming to read her mind. "I'll be here when you come back."

"You better be." She quickly kissed him again before turning to walk through the gate.

He put his hands in his pockets as he watched her disappear into the crowd. His father walked up behind him and put a hand on his shoulder, making him jump. "Come on," Omar said. "I promised your mother I'd have you in school by eleven."

Adam nodded and turned to follow his father out of the airport. His phone buzzed in his pocket. He smiled as he looked at the text message from Fiona he'd received: 20 days!

The end

AN: I addressed this earlier, I originally started this story planning for it to span an entire year, but instead the school year will be split into three stories: this one, the next one which will cover winter break, then the fall semester. Then summer and that cycle will repeat itself again. The next story in the series is called Fix You and should be up by Monday.

AN #2: the movie they were watching earlier on is Remember Me, for those wondering. Those who have seen it will probably know why it made Fiona cry.

The sequel, Fix You has been posted!
