I was so caught up in the kiss that I didn’t notice when he reversed our positions, trapping me between the window and his body. His jacket slipped off my shoulders and joined my purse on the floor. I honestly couldn’t have cared less, not when his hands were clutching my waist, as possessive as though we’d been dating for years; not when his mouth devoured mine as if he’d die if he stopped—or maybe, I was the one who would die.
I couldn’t tell you how long it lasted, but I could say this simple kiss aroused me more than my last boyfriend’s weekly efforts at putting me ‘in the mood.’ The fact that those efforts, such as they were, came back like clockwork every Saturday night at nine… Let’s just say he wasn’t my boyfriend for very long.
I could also mention how hard his cock was, pressing against my upper thigh, and how much trouble I had keeping my hands around his shoulders. Don’t judge me. It’d been a long, long time with nothing more than my own hands and my trusted vibrator.
When he pulled back, I was breathless, lightheaded, and certain I would die if he didn’t kiss me again.
That idea somehow scared me for a second. I heard sirens down the street. Something felt very, very strange, like I was in a dream and so close to waking up that I knew it was a dream. Right then, I looked into his eyes and was trapped once more by his stare.
“Is that what you came here for?”
Although his words came out as a murmur, I thought I could hear a whole array of emotions behind them. Desire, but also wariness. Hope, drenched in fear. Or maybe they were my emotions I was projecting onto him.
“No,” I replied, still a little out of breath. “I never imagined… No. And if you want me to go, I will.”
“It might be best if you left, yes,” he said, but the way he caressed my cheek with the back of his fingers made his words entirely unconvincing. Also, his free hand still rested on my hip; with his body so close to mine, he was effectively blocking my way out. Talk about mixed signals…
“If you want me to leave,” I said with a small smile, “you’ll have to let me go.”
He didn’t move one inch. “I didn’t say I want you to leave. I said it might be best if you did. I don’t always do what’s best. Do you?”
Clearly not. There had to be a thousand reasons why this, whatever this was, couldn’t possibly end well. At that moment, however, I couldn’t think of a single one. And even now, even knowing what was going on, I have a hard time imagining myself walking away after that kiss.
“I try to. But in my love life it has rarely been that easy.”
His eyebrows shot up and his fingers stilled on my cheek. “Love life? Is that what you think this is? Love?”
Never mind the coolness of the air.
