As he leans forward, I know my world is about to change. This guy has way too much power over me. What am I even doing? 816Please respect copyright.PENANAwCz9KRAVOM
This is not me.816Please respect copyright.PENANAQpeVrZ4bBy
816Please respect copyright.PENANAznNWVmWa6X
I am not impulsive. 816Please respect copyright.PENANAs5n3I9Jc0Y
816Please respect copyright.PENANAT1i8ARoYiJ
I do not lose control.816Please respect copyright.PENANAjbpkpxsnHe
816Please respect copyright.PENANAmViKTMHQjP
I do not kiss random guys.816Please respect copyright.PENANAFRad8JUnTz
Okay, so he isn't completely random since his friend is kinda dating my friend, but still... I don't know him. At all. 816Please respect copyright.PENANAlXiFKNRXAF
From want Ness has told me, he is a total player. 816Please respect copyright.PENANAQ3dPuKbbf9
816Please respect copyright.PENANAS9tgA4FwQc
I run my eyes down his body. A very hot player. 816Please respect copyright.PENANA0R9w8frVIw
816Please respect copyright.PENANAmxpCgc14LX
With big bulging muscles. 816Please respect copyright.PENANA6026H9EomO
816Please respect copyright.PENANAlzHGdKRuBs
And hair a girl could sink her fingers into...816Please respect copyright.PENANAJy1sF9U9Fi
816Please respect copyright.PENANA49HdBtMqkU
And dimples... 816Please respect copyright.PENANAJRRloCT3gJ
816Please respect copyright.PENANAvnpQVyEjiZ
Encasing a heart stopping smile.816Please respect copyright.PENANAPECHLoHlfj
816Please respect copyright.PENANAUFyNuqaz6c
And deep green eyes... That just so happen to be staring at me. 816Please respect copyright.PENANAMp2ajyDL2h
Crap. He's really close. Is that desire in his eyes? Or maybe he is completely repulsed by the kiss we shared. Oh no, is he going to vomit on me? I really like this dress.816Please respect copyright.PENANAAClHwfFMFu
What is he doing? What is he thinking? Would it be weird to ask him? Duh... Of course it would be weird!816Please respect copyright.PENANAFWp9eQQ5jI
Is he waiting for me to make a move? What should I do?816Please respect copyright.PENANAbAAU3K0taE
Crap, he has me over thinking everything. I need to stop. What does 'Ness always say? I sneak a glance in her direction, but she's stuck to Nate like a sucker fish. She is definitely not going to be any help.816Please respect copyright.PENANAm4nbKlzkCA
"Just go with the flow." I hear her voice replay in my head. Right... I can totally do that. Easy enough. 816Please respect copyright.PENANAWbjANPYbux
The flow... 816Please respect copyright.PENANA4l98kChZVx
But what is the flow here? Is the flow kissing or not kissing? Does the flow involve talking or not talking? 816Please respect copyright.PENANAqsMPYkm5fN
Gah! I need to know what he's thinking. Would I totally ruin everything if I said something? I have to say something. 816Please respect copyright.PENANAXaQWcRvO0i
He pulls back slightly, giving me room to breathe. I immediately miss his closeness. I miss the warmth of his body near mine. My body notices the loss and begins the pull towards him again.816Please respect copyright.PENANA6ms6uWBoe0
Good god, I have been single for less than a day and I am already craving someone else. 816Please respect copyright.PENANALMMlBwdux8
I am not this girl. 816Please respect copyright.PENANAO4CjEr5VHm
816Please respect copyright.PENANAL4YCypeztK
I am independent. 816Please respect copyright.PENANAUcWP5Rrl2I
816Please respect copyright.PENANAZUFeOF5xaN
I am intelligent. 816Please respect copyright.PENANAPjojG0SKAw
816Please respect copyright.PENANAS1F0wg1W1m
I do not crave any guy. 816Please respect copyright.PENANAPDWTigw3EC
816Please respect copyright.PENANAyHVq6yaTfV
I have my head on straight. 816Please respect copyright.PENANABx54ogv1Tk
I will NOT fall for him. Or his tricks.816Please respect copyright.PENANAtY2w9HvF7y
"Kat?" His eyebrows draw together, giving him a look of concern. 816Please respect copyright.PENANA2TmNOj2mOY
Shoot. How long have I been sitting here staring off into space? 816Please respect copyright.PENANAYB7wJjNYWe
"Uh... Yeah?" My voice comes out strained. What the heck is wrong with me? I bring my hand up to hide my face. Maybe if he can't see me, he will forget I'm the idiot sitting here. 816Please respect copyright.PENANAaYBQSA8fvK
Hey, a girl can hope, right?816Please respect copyright.PENANAaIZn5mTDjC
No such luck. He pulls my hand away to gently lay it on the table, but he doesn't release it. 816Please respect copyright.PENANAcGKOLYT1tz
"You okay?" He quirks a brow. I wonder if he feels the flow of electricity between our hands like I do. Does he feel the pull between our bodies, as though they long to be united?816Please respect copyright.PENANAYgyGyVJyrA
Or am I just totally crazy?816Please respect copyright.PENANAYnk93FIuP0
I glance down at our entwined hands ignoring my brain's plea to pull away. This connection with him is oddly comforting.816Please respect copyright.PENANAYczGA55pkS
My eyes slide up to meet his. "I'm fine." I manage to get the words out, but even I'm not convinced. 816Please respect copyright.PENANAk9NP206IvE
He lets out a soft chuckle before leaning forward to whisper in my ear. "I can literally see the wheels turning in your brain."816Please respect copyright.PENANAgZXJMwgSB2
I pull back, my mouth dropping open. God, could I be any more awkward? 816Please respect copyright.PENANAYeRuzJdELw
I'm not sure what to say, but he continues without prompting. "I didn't realize anyone actually thought that hard." His cocky smirk returns. 816Please respect copyright.PENANA9K2OlArdUX
I scoff, yanking my hand from his. "Sorry to burst your bubble, but not every girl is an air brained bimbo." I cross my arms while leaning back to glare at him. 816Please respect copyright.PENANAmZrXVWIWG6
His eyebrows shoot up in surprise, his hands raised in surrender. "I never said that."816Please respect copyright.PENANAi6U0BnI7Wl
"Yeah, well... I have thoughts." Crap. That was really lame. "Deep thoughts." Yeah, that didn't make it better. How much did I drink?816Please respect copyright.PENANAWwmyBlxXSH
"I bet you do. I didn't mean to imply anything about you... or the entire female gender." He seems genuine, but maybe he's being condescending.816Please respect copyright.PENANA9q1WYeS9W6
I can't decide if I want to believe him or not. Being offended is easier than being vulnerable.816Please respect copyright.PENANA3lJEmDtFHW
"Well, maybe you don't know everything." I try to hold onto the indignation, but I feel it slipping away as the confusion fills his eyes. 816Please respect copyright.PENANAyI8tzyKXS0
I can tell he's trying to figure out where my hostility is coming from and where he went wrong, but I just want to be angry. And it has nothing to do with him.816Please respect copyright.PENANAMgZtXNBRky
"Never said I did." Insecurity flashed across his face amplifying my need to comfort him. Opening up could be a terrible idea. I'm going to blame the alcohol in my system. 816Please respect copyright.PENANArdeh0h3jTb
"I..." I let out the breath I didn't realize I was holding. "I... uh... tend to over think things. Pretty much everything. And today... actually yesterday, at this point, was not the best day." 816Please respect copyright.PENANAQamfJLVXRy
"I didn't know..." His eyebrows draw together, the concerned look returning to his beautiful face. "You really can talk to me you know."816Please respect copyright.PENANA9scj05byF7
He gently pulls my hand back to his and begins to rub his thumb along my palm. An involuntary shiver runs through my body.816Please respect copyright.PENANAjy0vzaRQVV
I am so screwed. 816Please respect copyright.PENANAnTvsKAiZPb
He's not only incredibly good looking with the body of a Greek god, but he seems to be a pretty good guy... 816Please respect copyright.PENANApUX8lLjunK
Dang it. I will not fall for him. 816Please respect copyright.PENANA0objB3JjVG
I feel drowsy, like I'm floating. "But can I trust you?" I whisper. In the back of my brain somewhere, I know that was lame... but I can't filter anymore. 816Please respect copyright.PENANAYfewIRz95V
"Of course." He looks deep into my eyes, like he's trying to convince me, but I'm already convinced. My eyes burn from the need to close them.816Please respect copyright.PENANAhXqUYqldMP
I open my mouth, unsure what's going to come out. "The douche bag knew I would catch him, didn't he?"816Please respect copyright.PENANA3GesMF6uOP
"What are you talking about?" I hear his voice through the haze. 816Please respect copyright.PENANApcefDcEuEh
I'm not sure how to explain. "He had... she was... he had her... doing that... in our bed. He probably just wanted an excuse to get rid of me. I was too boring. I could never do... that... what she was doing... I couldn't. I wouldn't."816Please respect copyright.PENANAd6yJddfrkS
I hear male voices mumbling. It feels like there's water in my ears. I think 'Ness is talking, but I can't understand her. But she will understand what I'm trying to say. She always understands me.816Please respect copyright.PENANAaFDqz6fb6l
I can't stop myself now that I've started. "I really thought he loved me... God, I loved him... Didn't help though. I'm not what he wanted." Spots dance in front of my eyes. And my lungs burn.816Please respect copyright.PENANAwUOFRqVAy1
"Why am I such a prude? Why wasn't I enough?" It's hard to breathe... and my face feels wet. Am I crying? I really need air. Everything hurts.816Please respect copyright.PENANAm6e6ETsfuS
I can feel my body giving into the darkness, as my mind drifts to my soft bed. I just want to sleep. I just want this night to end. I feel my eyelids growing heavy. I'm unable to stop them from closing, not that I would want to. 816Please respect copyright.PENANA35mBVCB9ar
"Kat?" I hear Ben's anxious voice in the distance, but all I can feel is my body giving into sweet sleep. My body just wants to shut down and I want to let it even though I know this isn't a good idea.816Please respect copyright.PENANA0UxNcMj44W
As he catches me in his strong arms and his scent surrounds me, he is my last thought before the darkness pulls me under. 816Please respect copyright.PENANAYzte6xydUr
I will not fall... any more... for him.
