Chapter 252 - Strip tease

Lucas looked at Jen who was quietly dozing off in the passenger's seat as he drove the both of them back home. He had to admit that he did not expect that he would feel as tired as he did as a result of the party. He can't imagine how tired Michael was since he was there from the beginning of the party.

Since it was already quite late there was no traffic on the road and since Jen was sleeping, Lucas did not restrain himself from speeding along the highway since there was no one to stop him. Besides that, he was also feeling quite tired so he just wanted to quickly get home and rest.

It took him half the time it normally would to get home and after he parked his car and turned it off, he looked at Jen who was still asleep. He smiled to himself and got out of his car. He went to the passenger's side of the car and opened the car door.

He leaned down and undid Jen's seatbelt. As the pressure of the seatbelt loosened on her body, Jen opened her eyes only to meet Lucas' hazel eyes.

"We're home?" Jen asked as she turned her head to look at her surroundings.

"En," Lucas said and pushed a strand of loose hair behind her ear.

"Sorry I fell asleep," Jen said as she squinted her eyes. She knew that the venue was quite some distance from the hotel and there was the possibility of him falling asleep behind the wheel. 

"Mmh, it's alright, you look tired," Lucas said before pecking her lips. He felt that she looked so cute when she was half asleep. Jen was still a bit dazed so she didn't have much of a reaction.

"Let's go home," Lucas said and helped her out of the car. Jen leaned heavily against him and he took his time to guide her to the elevator. As they stood inside the elevator, Jen burrowed herself in his suit jacket as he was giving off a lot of body heat and she practically fell asleep on her feet.

Lucas walked forward when the elevator doors opened and almost dragged Jen along with him. He immediately stopped and wrapped an arm around her waist to hold her up.

"Jen" Lucas said as he looked at her closed eyes.

"Mmh," Jen responded before mumbling something incoherent and opening her eyes. She immediately squinted her eyes from the light in the elevator.

Lucas didn't think she was tired to the extent that she was. So he bent a bit and hooked one hand on her lower back and the other one behind her knees before he lifted her up and walked out of the elevator.

Jen comfortably snuggled against his body and buried her face in his neck as she placed her hands on his shoulder. Lucas opened the door to his house and toed off his shoes before he slipped his feet into his slippers and walked into the dark house.

He walked past the large dining and living room and went up the stairs that led to their rooms. He opened the door to his room and closed it with his foot and placed Jen on the bed and put her feet on his lap before he removed her shoes.

He undid the straps of her heels and while he was handling her feet she started feeling ticklish so she opened her eyes to see what as happening.

She quietly watched him remove her heels and as he tried not to wake her up. When Lucas lifted her legs from his lap he saw that she was watching him and when their eyes met Jen gave him a lazy smile as she slowly blinked at him. 

"Did I wake you up?" Lucas asked as he held her hand. Jen sat up on the bed not completely awake but she wanted to take a shower before she went to sleep so she was determined not to go back to bed.

"No, I want to take a shower," Jen said as she threw her legs off of the bed.

"I'll go in first, take your time," Lucas said as he removed his suit jacket and threw it in the hamper. He then unbuttoned his shirt and turned to check on Jen since she was being too quiet. He saw that she was staring at his torso in rapt attention.

He had caught her doing this on numerous occasions so he was quite unfazed, what had him curious was how she would always look at him as if there was something new that had been added on to his body.

Jen watched as Lucas shrugged off his shirt and how his muscles rippled with the action before her attention was drawn to how his hands were undoing his belt.

Lucas felt like he was performing a striptease, especially when Jen licked her dry lips, it was quite a strange feeling that he did not intend to dwell on for long.

"I see that there is something else you want to do besides shower." Lucas teased as he paused his movements. Jen noticed that she was being inappropriate and turned her face away.

Lucas chuckled when he saw how bashful she was with him he finally turned around and showed his back to her as he went to the bathroom. Jen watched his disappearing body before she finally snapped out of her daze.

She was really hopeless whenever Lucas was involved. She smiled to herself helplessly as she too removed the long dress she had on and once she removed her undergarment she finally felt like she could breathe properly.

She then walked into the bathroom and took one of the folded towels and wrapped it around herself before she went in front of the mirror to remove her make up.

She kept on drawing out the time and as she was dawdling in front of the mirror and Lucas' frustrated voice finally echoed in the bathroom.

"If you don't come now you won't be taking a shower" he threatened. Jen quickly disposed of her make up removers and hopped into the shower with Lucas. Jen was immediately soaked when Lucas pulled her close to him and bent down and caught her lips with his.
