LAURA
Josh drew back from the kiss, his lips lingering just above mine as though he was still contemplating whether to
connect them once more. His blue eyes locked onto mine, intense and probing, and for a brief moment, silence
enveloped us. My heart raced in my chest, pounding so vigorously that | was sure he could hear it.
"What the hell was that?" | managed to whisper, my voice shaky and breathless.
He ran a hand through his hair, gripping the back of his neck as he let out a low, frustrated groan. "I don't know,"
he said, his voice rough, almost angry. But then his eyes found mine again, softening. "All | know is that every
t| see you, | have this... this urge." "An urge?" | repeated, my brows furrowing.
"Yeah," he said, almost snapping, but then he sighed, the tension in his shoulders deflating, "It's like this need.
Like I'm dying of thirst, and you're the only thing that can quench it. T look at you, and all | want to do is..." His
voice trailed off as he gestured between us, his meaning clear.
| blinked, unsure what to say, unsure if there was anything to say. My lips still tingled from the kiss, my skin
burning where his hands had been. | felt like | was standing on the edge of a cliff, teetering between pulling him
back toor running away.
Josh let out a sharp exhale and shook his head, almost as if trying to clear his thoughts. "Forget it," he mumbled,
shifting in his seat as he reached for the gearstick. Without another word, he put the car back into gear and
pulled onto the road, leavingsitting there, stunned and silent.
The rest of the drive was unbearable.
The silence between us wasn't just awkward-it was charged, thick with tension that neither of us dared to break.
My mind raced, replaying the kiss over and over again, analyzing every second, every movement, every flicker
of emotion in his eyes.
By the twe pulled into his driveway, my nerves were shot.
Josh parked the car, and | unbuckled my seatbelt in a daze. | barely met his eyes as | got out, muttering quickly,
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt"Thanks for the ride," before heading toward the house.
When | stepped inside, the foyer was dark and quiet, with the only sound being the soft click of my shoes against
the floor. | took a deep breath, trying to steady myself. Jess was supposed to be here, but she was off with Bryan,
leavingalone in this massive house with Josh.
| had barely stepped toward the staircase when | felt him behind me.
His presence was unmistakable warm, overwhelming, and so close that it sent a shiver down my spine.
Before | could turn around, his hands grazed over my arms, featherlight at first, then more deliberate as they slid
upward. His palms moved to my shoulders, and he brushed my hair aside, exposing the curve of my neck. "Josh,"
| whispered, but my voice was weak, lacking conviction.
He leaned in, his breath warm against my skin. My head tilted to the side on its own, my body betraying me, and
my eyelids fluttered closed.
What the hell was he doing?
More importantly, what the hell was | doing?
"Do you wantto stop?" he whispered, his voice low and rough, sending a shiver straight through me.
I shook my head, barely able to process the words before they left me.
"Good," he murmured, his lips brushing against the sensitive spot where my neck met my shoulder.
The first kiss was soft, almost tentative, but it didn't stay that way. His mouth opened against my skin, sucking
lightly, teasing. Heat bloomed under his touch, spreading throughlike wildfire.
His arm snaked around my waist, pullingback against him, and his other hand glided up my throat. His
fingers were gentle yet firm as they gripped my jaw, tilting my head to the side until his lips found mine again.
This kiss was nothing like the first.
Josh didn't hold back. His mouth opened against mine, and his tongue slipped in, exploring, tasting. The kiss was
deep,
consuming, leavingbreathless and dizzy.
I couldn't think, couldn't move, couldn't breathe.
