I could have kissed Suzie for hours. For an eternity. I could have happily sat in that incapacitated vehicle and just kissed her.

I’d done my fair share of kissing before, but nothing compared to this. There was a connection there that I’d never felt before, something that made the act of kissing so much more than lips on lips. It was a silent communication, a level of bonding that went beyond words. With that kiss I tried to tell her everything I’d been feeling ever since I’d discovered that she was Prince Z. I tried to show her what she’d come to mean to me and how I saw her.

Clearly I’d been failing these past six weeks—I’d gotten her attention but hadn’t been able to get her to see that I liked what I saw. That I wanted to know more.

I tried to say all that with the kiss, but in the end I just kissed her with everything I was feeling and hoped she felt it too.

When I finally pulled back she had her eyes closed and her lips were pink and swollen. Her cheeks were flushed and her long pale lashes fell against her freckled cheeks.

She was stunning.

I reached a hand up to cup her jaw and stroke her cheek because I needed to feel her skin. When her eyes flickered open her gaze was glassy and dazed. I grinned at the sight of it.

“Why did you do that?” she asked, her voice breathy and sweet.

I bit back a groan. Did she seriously not get it yet? I leaned forward and pressed my forehead to hers, willing her to see what I was feeling. “Because I wanted to.”

There. That was the simple truth. Any more and I’d have to explain to her just how I fell for her in the first place. Now just didn’t seem like the time to admit that I knew she was Prince Z, or to let her in on the fact that I was DataG.

I had to tell her eventually, of course. I knew that. But I was sort of hoping that maybe I could get her to like me first, or at the very least not distrust me so much.

And yes, I did see the irony in the fact that I was keeping a secret until I earned her trust. But if I told her too soon, I could lose her in real life and as my online friend. I wasn’t sure I could risk that.

See? I hadn’t lied about being selfish.

“I thought you said this wasn't a date.” Her expression was still adorably confused.

“I said this outing would be whatever you wanted it to be,” I clarified. “You never asked me what I wanted it to be.”

She blinked. "And what exactly do you want this ‘outing’ to be?"

I laughed softly at her use of air quotes when she said outing, amused beyond belief by her skeptical tone. Was it possible that this girl still didn't get it? I sobered up
