In the back of my mind, I know that Ashley or Katie or worse his little sister could walk in at any moment but it doesn't make me step back. Everything inside me is screaming to get away but I'm glued to the spot.
"I'm not." His voice is softer than it has been. It's almost gentle. It's definitely not teasing, but that scares me more because it's when he's sincere that he hurts me most. "I can see it in the way you are biting your lip."
He runs his finger across my lip, leaving the taste of his skin there.
"I can feel it in the electricity that is always between us."
He squares his shoulders, challenging me to deny it.
"I'm going to kiss you now."
