Chapter 106 - Cute As A Baby

The trio left soon after the discussion, leaving the two lovebirds alone. They knew that Stella needed some time to let all the information sink in. 

Before leaving, Liam took out a picture from his wallet and passed it to Adam. "I was going through some of our old stuff and found this. Thought you guys may want to have this." 

Adam looked at the picture in his hand and his eyes widened in surprise. It was an old polaroid. A boy of around four years of age was holding a newborn baby in his arms. The baby was wearing a baby cotton frock. Her eyes were shut close as she held onto the boy's finger tightly, squeezing it. Adam could recognize that the boy was no one other than himself.

"Is that Stella?" He finally managed to speak up, looking at Liam with a faint smile on his face.

Liam nodded and left the couple on their own after biding his goodbyes.

After he had left, Stella finally managed to look at the picture properly. 

"Is that you?" She asked as she snatched the picture from Adam.

"You were cute as a baby." Adam didn't bother answering her question.

"Am I not cute now?" Stella asked him, her lips pursing into a pout. 

Adam shrugged and swept her off her feet. He carried her all the way to his room and placed her down on the bed. After taking the picture from her, he put it securely inside his drawer with the the other picture that Liam gave them before.

He made a mental note to ask Bella to contact a photographer. He wanted both of these pictures framed.

He climbed into the bed, lying next to her. Bringing her closer to himself.

"Can't say about you being cute or not, but I do find out hot." He spoke up, licking his lower lip as his hand made its way under her loose shirt, grazing over her fair skin. He felt Stella's breath getting hitched under his touched. 

He traced his fingers around the lower edge of her bra, sending shivers of pleasure down her spine.

"Do you know how hard it is for me to control myself around you these days?" He murmured softly next to her ear, his voice brimming with seduction. "One of these days, I will have you." He placed the a feather like kiss behind her ear. 

"I will bring you your sleepwear." He said before leaving her alone on the bed, all flustered, as headed towards the walk-in closet. 

He returned after a while and passed her one of his shirts and a pair of black silk shorts. Though she had her own sleepwear, a lot of them, she had turned his shirts and t-shirts into her sleepwear, not that he minded it. For him, they looked much better on her.

"I will join you in a while. Need to take a cold shower." He said, emphasizing on 'cold', and made his way to the bathroom. His last few days have been spending with him taking cold showers. He was afraid that one of the coming days, he wouldn't be able to control his desires. Only he knew how much he desired her, how badly he wanted to do it with her. But he wanted to make it special for them. It will be their first time, and he wanted it to be memorable for her.

"Wake up, sleepy head." Adam spoke softly as he tried to wake her up. 

"Umm…. What time is it?" Stella asked in her groggy morning voice.

"Six in the morning." Adam replied to her patiently. 

"It's too early. We don't have to go to the office for another two hours. Let me sleep." She muttered, turning around to bury her face into Adam's pillow, blocking the sunlight.

Adam's lips curled up in a smile as he watched her act like a spoilt teenager.

"Are you forgetting that we are supposed to be exercising. Lillian even sent some sportswear for you. Get up and change." He added, as he held her hands, pulling her up in the process.

He was wearing a black t-shirt paired with a matching pair of sweatpants and white workout shoes.

"Alright! I will see you in the gym." Stella didn't have a choice but to reluctantly agree. She was the one who brought this on herself, so she had no other choice but to bear it.

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

Adam was just warming up when Stella entered the gym. Looking at the girl, he almost lost his footing. 

She was wearing a black sports bra and a pair of matching sport shorts which were hugging her pretty ass perfectly. 

Adam gulped down a mouthful of saliva at the sight before him.
