Slowly, as if he was taking care to make sure that everything would work out perfectly, his hand reached out to capture the side of my face before his lips slowly inched closer to mine.
He's going to kiss me...
I thought that I had been brought under a binding spell as his lips approached mine. It felt like everything that I had been waiting for and dreaming of was about to come true at that very moment. It felt like if our lips met, my life would take a drastic turn for the better. For a moment everything just felt so right; however, in the very next instance it felt like everything was spiraling out of my control. My body stiffened and refused to move the way that I wanted to as if every fiber of my being was resisting what was about to come. My mind struggled to understand the feelings swirling in the depths of my heart and the way that my body was behaving. Anthony was about to kiss me, but for some strange reason that I did not understand, I didn't desire his kiss.
