Chapter 74

"Okay?" I ask in disbelief.

I hold her closer just in case I misheard and she's about to force me out of her apartment.

"I-I'll believe you." She says and I try to calm down my erratic heartbeat in case my excitement deters her.

"You-"

"For now Leo but no more lies and if anything happens again..." She threatens.

"It won't." I lift her chin and plant my lips on hers, too ecstatic to control my actions.

She melts against my body and I take the opportunity to try and lift her onto me because that's her natural position whenever we're this close, always hanging onto me like a koala bear on a branch.

When she moans I assume it's because she needs me as much as I need her but then I feel her hands pushing at my chest.

"N-no, we cant." She mumbles between my lips.

"Can't what?" I ask, gripping her thigh to keep me in reality.

"We can't, Leo." She says louder and pushes at me.
