Chapter Forty: Oops

His heart was beating frantically against his chest, matching the beat of my own. Something possessed me to wrap my arms around him completely, to press myself against him. A sigh caught me by surprise, my eyes springing open at the sound. I think that was me. Jackass snaked an arm around my waist, pulling me in closer. My breath hitched in my throat, my body aware of every part where we were touching, bursting into flames under his fingertips. I started taking deeper breaths, out of fear that I would stop breathing completely. I was at peace but in turmoil at the same time. Every step we took, every sound he made, rattled something in me, a desire I never knew I had. And in that moment, I wanted him.
