SEVEN

Austin settled his mouth on hers, wrapping his arms around her and dragging her to him. Pressed against him, she surrendered to the kiss, and for a moment she reveled in the feel of being in his embrace.

When his lips left hers, he rested his forehead against hers, cupping her face. “I’ve wanted to do that since that first night we had warm milk together.”

The feel of his palms against her cheeks, the tingle of her mouth where his had been, the minty taste of him on her lips, the thundering of her heartbeat in her ears overwhelmed her senses. She slid her eyes closed to block his appealing features from her view, but his image imprinted itself in her mind. The connection between them was strong. He made her believe in tomorrows. He gave her hope.

And she knew there was no hope for them.

Hannah finally stepped away, his arms falling to his sides. “I’d better get that monitor for you.” Quickly she escaped into her bedroom, retrieved the piece of equipment and returned to the hall.

Austin stood where she’d left him, no emotion on his face. She thrust the monitor toward him, keeping herself at arm’s length. After he took it, she spun on her heel and covered the few feet to her door.

Pausing, she glanced back, hating the sudden wall between them, put there by her. “For the record, I’ve wanted you to kiss me, too.” Then she disappeared into her room and closed the door before she threw herself into his arms.
