Chapter Thirteen

Harper

We’re nearly at the top, just one more ridge and we’re there, not without a lot of complaining from me. Why do all the nicest views have to be at the top of something?

Edward says it's that way so that you appreciate it all the more. I'm not so sure - I’d appreciate it even more if I didn't have to climb anything.

Did Edward really say I could kiss him? It’s a crazy suggestion but one I'm so tempted to go with. It would solve the issue of being terrified to kiss anyone. Everyone presumes I have experience with guys now, so I can’t exactly turn around and tell everyone I don't know what I'm doing. If I kissed Ed, he could tell me if it was rubbish - he’s kissed girls before, and he would be able to give me tips.

I shiver at the thought of kissing Ed. What would that be like? To have his mouth on mine, his arms around me. I want that. I don't want things to be weird, but kiss Ed? Jesus, it’s not exactly a hardship. He is hot - any girl would jump at it, not that I’d tell anyone, but yeah, if I'm going to learn with someone, he would be a top choice for a teacher.

He turns back to me because I'm trailing behind, "Come on, slowcoach, we're there."

He holds his hand out and I grab it, trying to keep my composure. We step up and are met with the most amazing views. They're out of this world, something that an Instagram picture would not do justice to. It is beautiful.

I turn to Ed, noticing that he still has hold of my hand. "It’s gorgeous."

He looks at me and then turns to admire the view, "Breath taking."

A couple of people are milling around - a man with his dog and a couple wearing hiking boots that are making their way back down.

I take a swig of my bottle of water and hand it to Edward, who takes it off me and has a swig. We’re sharing a bottle of water, that’s almost kissing anyway...

We’re silent for a minute, soaking in the rolling hills. If ever there was an opportunity, it’s here.

"Ed?"

"Yeah?"

"What happens on the hill stays on the hill, right?"

He frowns at me, "What are you talking about?"

"Let’s do it... if it’s OK with you." My mouth is dry. I take another drink.

He stares at me blankly. Oh god, he’s going to make me say it.

I clear my throat. "The practice kiss."

His eyes widen, and he swallows. "Oh, that. Are you sure?"

I shrug, "It’s embarrassing, but yeah, if it won’t gross you out too much."

"It won’t gross me out at all."

I smile at him and give a slight nod. Go time.

"OK, so, we need to be facing each other, like this." He grabs my shoulders, facing me to him. "OK, he will probably, you know, if he’s any good," he smirks, "put his hands on your face or your neck like this.
