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? 759Please respect copyright.PENANA6rt9n80cSK
This is not me.759Please respect copyright.PENANAqLYqo1OUpS
759Please respect copyright.PENANA3hcuEbn594
I am not impulsive. 759Please respect copyright.PENANAFFIk5FwNCC
759Please respect copyright.PENANAx4egIcyv6v
I do not lose control.759Please respect copyright.PENANAqJ49PfSRYf
759Please respect copyright.PENANAi2rJm5cdpB
I do not kiss random guys.759Please respect copyright.PENANAntDzAmVvKt
Okay, so he isn't completely random since his friend is kinda dating my friend, but still... I don't know him. At all. 759Please respect copyright.PENANAoBOn7ukfTJ
From want Ness has told me, he is a total player. 759Please respect copyright.PENANA5zewvbdpX7
759Please respect copyright.PENANAadfIjRktHx
I run my eyes down his body. A very hot player. 759Please respect copyright.PENANAk7RbszKucl
759Please respect copyright.PENANAXZWhpNDe3E
With big bulging muscles. 759Please respect copyright.PENANA3K3dQLftu6
759Please respect copyright.PENANA7QpZAB6nzH
And hair a girl could sink her fingers into...759Please respect copyright.PENANA19qSdz72t2
759Please respect copyright.PENANAglzJBJavrl
And dimples... 759Please respect copyright.PENANAIltMZYFMlH
759Please respect copyright.PENANAwKu0m55kjZ
Encasing a heart stopping smile.759Please respect copyright.PENANAncXrnE5Lul
759Please respect copyright.PENANAvH2qdOda6q
And deep green eyes... That just so happen to be staring at me. 759Please respect copyright.PENANAmnVY3wQCYE
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.759Please respect copyright.PENANAf7YGV3YPhC
What is he doing? What is he thinking? Would it be weird to ask him? Duh... Of course it would be weird!759Please respect copyright.PENANAmMXWPykmti
Is he waiting for me to make a move? What should I do?759Please respect copyright.PENANAcGmgIX23WO
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.759Please respect copyright.PENANAKEX92ya8DG
"Just go with the flow." I hear her voice replay in my head. Right... I can totally do that. Easy enough. 759Please respect copyright.PENANArwCO7LGigi
The flow... 759Please respect copyright.PENANAfRsNOybviQ
But what is the flow here? Is the flow kissing or not kissing? Does the flow involve talking or not talking? 759Please respect copyright.PENANAzuqhRnr8ld
Gah! I need to know what he's thinking. Would I totally ruin everything if I said something? I have to say something. 759Please respect copyright.PENANAvfnhe1zILx
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.759Please respect copyright.PENANAHbkuWqfldQ
Good god, I have been single for less than a day and I am already craving someone else. 759Please respect copyright.PENANA73rcezV76l
I am not this girl. 759Please respect copyright.PENANAImtVCrumK4
759Please respect copyright.PENANAdQMiHaGo4t
I am independent. 759Please respect copyright.PENANAElA0WNFswp
759Please respect copyright.PENANAbjCe9Xlt9L
I am intelligent. 759Please respect copyright.PENANAdvq3kgUjkt
759Please respect copyright.PENANAfJsaL8sX3f
I do not crave any guy. 759Please respect copyright.PENANA2uj3jBaklm
759Please respect copyright.PENANArsSc6tEjMi
I have my head on straight. 759Please respect copyright.PENANARujn1g7seZ
I will NOT fall for him. Or his tricks.759Please respect copyright.PENANARMSO6pkSDd
"Kat?" His eyebrows draw together, giving him a look of concern. 759Please respect copyright.PENANAPsMHzPjeYB
Shoot. How long have I been sitting here staring off into space? 759Please respect copyright.PENANAw1qRxxOB7o
"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. 759Please respect copyright.PENANAnyjeWk0RuY
Hey, a girl can hope, right?759Please respect copyright.PENANAcVK0xbcZEp
No such luck. He pulls my hand away to gently lay it on the table, but he doesn't release it. 759Please respect copyright.PENANAhWBI3zqJJR
"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?759Please respect copyright.PENANAEeuf8t8Kxr
Or am I just totally crazy?759Please respect copyright.PENANAgqsNhPwQUG
I glance down at our entwined hands ignoring my brain's plea to pull away. This connection with him is oddly comforting.759Please respect copyright.PENANAw9W0b556NQ
My eyes slide up to meet his. "I'm fine." I manage to get the words out, but even I'm not convinced. 759Please respect copyright.PENANAGd3KjMm8Wa
He lets out a soft chuckle before leaning forward to whisper in my ear. "I can literally see the wheels turning in your brain."759Please respect copyright.PENANA99h0GaUipK
I pull back, my mouth dropping open. God, could I be any more awkward? 759Please respect copyright.PENANAn9T9KGBzXG
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. 759Please respect copyright.PENANA07RWtPrVJb
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. 759Please respect copyright.PENANARqkIcfNpsB
His eyebrows shoot up in surprise, his hands raised in surrender. "I never said that."759Please respect copyright.PENANA57tracAgEO
"Yeah, well... I have thoughts." Crap. That was really lame. "Deep thoughts." Yeah, that didn't make it better. How much did I drink?759Please respect copyright.PENANA72hKb8Thsj
"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.759Please respect copyright.PENANAjdUItvGzh0
I can't decide if I want to believe him or not. Being offended is easier than being vulnerable.759Please respect copyright.PENANAIqrfrQasSj
"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. 759Please respect copyright.PENANA3pBAAg1pX2
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.759Please respect copyright.PENANALtXaGKWpSv
"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. 759Please respect copyright.PENANAxmalglDL66
"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." 759Please respect copyright.PENANAVIUgn2T0Wy
"I didn't know..." His eyebrows draw together, the concerned look returning to his beautiful face. "You really can talk to me you know."759Please respect copyright.PENANAOz8dPOUsvq
He gently pulls my hand back to his and begins to rub his thumb along my palm. An involuntary shiver runs through my body.759Please respect copyright.PENANAG8VxwOZoGz
I am so screwed. 759Please respect copyright.PENANADLdMOgUsJ8
He's not only incredibly good looking with the body of a Greek god, but he seems to be a pretty good guy... 759Please respect copyright.PENANA1MkeoBUw6u
Dang it. I will not fall for him. 759Please respect copyright.PENANAx18fvRW85d
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. 759Please respect copyright.PENANAYZ6yJWYN3S
"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.759Please respect copyright.PENANAai7RFXUXnz
I open my mouth, unsure what's going to come out. "The douche bag knew I would catch him, didn't he?"759Please respect copyright.PENANAwysW5r30zA
"What are you talking about?" I hear his voice through the haze. 759Please respect copyright.PENANAgkaZUXAlHF
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."759Please respect copyright.PENANA5y4KmEUrCz
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.759Please respect copyright.PENANA7klNwVfSBM
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.759Please respect copyright.PENANAMowWfbvqrv
"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.759Please respect copyright.PENANACWzvEOrUol
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. 759Please respect copyright.PENANAozh3mWl8Ar
"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.759Please respect copyright.PENANAVeiuI4ZsGv
As he catches me in his strong arms and his scent surrounds me, he is my last thought before the darkness pulls me under. 759Please respect copyright.PENANAnxWQoRucsk
I will not fall... any more... for him.
