“Hey…”, he cooed softly sending shivers right into my spine. “…come here”. Scratch that… he was sending shivers all over me, from my head down to my toes!
I nodded upon hearing him as his hand found the bare skin that was exposed from my shirt ridding up. His large hand ignited sparks in me that were just unexplainable, and I found myself wanting more.
As if I was on a trance, I turned my face over him without any hesitation or fight at all. I looked at his face, looking intently at his gorgeous features: those little minute details of freckles on his nose and that cute mole next to it - things you’d miss out if you did not look much closer. Looking down at his face, I let my eyes run on those stubbles that sits nicely up his lips and when he smiles, that sweet dimple that I used to pinch back then because of just how cute it was…
I sensed his face dropping, with his smirk turning into a pout. I zoomed out my focus from his lips that were honestly quite irresistible to devour to see his eyebrows scrunched up with his eyes looking at me intently.
“Why are you looking at me like that?”, backing out his face slightly at me with a confused look.
“Wh-what?”, I stuttered, figuring out exactly what he meant with that.
“That look”, Gerald said pointing at my face. “Wait…”, he told me his face lighting up with a grin, “… are you thinking that I was going to kiss you?”
“NO!”, I screamed at him pulling away from his hold quickly. But inside I was screaming. Yes! Yes! Yes! I want your darn lips on mine! Even if it will be the death of me!
I looked away from him hiding these freaking blushes. Why do I blush easily, I asked myself staring up above.
Gerald chuckled and leaned his head on my shoulder to whisper in a sweet voice into my ears, “Sarah, if you wanted to… you know you could just ask.”
I flinched slightly as his warm breath touched the nook of my neck. I had my head held up exposing more skin to his breath, which just rattled the butterflies more in my stomach.
I closed my eyes wanting the kiss to happen. Why am acting up like this? Am I needing his physical attention? Am I wanting more of him?
I was expecting him to brush his lips and put little kisses along the nape of my neck but I was left hanging. I opened my eyes slowly not wanting to meet reality, but only to see Gerald on my side sifting through my bag. DARN YOU GERALD ANDERSON FOR LEAVING ME HANGING!
“You are going to sleep here, okay?”, he said as he zipped up my duffel bag. I looked at him confused. So he wants to sleep now? What about that darn kiss? Crap, I was turning into a slutty girl now.
“I’ll put my extra pillow in between us so that I won’t throw myself into you”, he said laughing at the last few words that came out of his mouth. “See I am a man. I know how to respect woman’s personal space”, he said proudly with a smug look as he handed my blanket.
“Good night”, he said casually throwing my duffel bag slightly to the side. He leaned in to the sides and came out of the sides to put the extra pillow in between us. I looked down scornfully at the pillow that was separating us and wanted to throw it outside. DARN YOU PILLOW!
I sighed and spread out my blanket as I crept myself in onto the comforter. “Good night”, I replied back to him almost saying it out of annoyance and anger. I fluffed the sides of my pillow and placed my head onto it to face the other side of the tent.
“One more thing…”, Gerald said behind me. I scrunched my eyebrows up at his voice, snapping my head to look over him to check what he wanted but only to meet his lips halfway through.
His lips were pressed on mine and I was literally stunned and left speechless of the touching. Gerald’s eyes grew wider and looked surprised of what happened.
He pulled away quickly from the kiss, shocked of what just happened. “Shit. I - Sarah, sorry. I was only going to give you a peck on the cheek as a good night kiss. Honest.”
Gerald looked so cute when he was worried and when he put his hand behind his neck running it up and down through his hair... damn.
I was tempted not to but I could not let the moment pass. I leaned in to brush his lips, giving him a quick peck on the lips.
“Sweet dreams”, I cooed back at him settling my head back to my pillow. I bit my lips, slightly embarrassed of how bold I was of what I have just done, but heck I tried my darn hardest to resist doing it. I just hope it did not come out super flirty or slutty move though.
I could still feel Gerald frozen by my side and a part of me was jumping because of it.
"Guess it was just not me liking these kisses", I thought to myself as I grazed my finger to the burning sensation that Gerald had left to my lips.
