"I would like to spend more time with you." He whispered against her skin. "I would like to forget everything for a while. Can we stay here tonight?"

He swallowed a lump as he tried to control his urges. When she looked up and met his gaze with her nervous eyes, he stopped himself from touching her.

However, she suddenly crashed into him, pressing her lips against his and wrapping her arms around his neck. He looked down at her and their gazes collided. She was nervous, but she ran her fingers gently down his neck like Kyrah said she should do.
