“Hmmm…”
Before I can take another step back, Reed is stalking forward. He grabs me around the waist and pulls me to him before leaning down to kiss me breathless. His tongue tangles with mine until we’re both panting. The way my body responds to Reed; it’s never been this way for me, not with anyone else. Like I was made just for him and he’s the only one who can make me feel so alive.
I’ve missed him, and even though I can’t admit it out loud, I was dying for this. For him.
“Take me home, Reed.”
He grins, then squats down and hoists me over his shoulder, in true caveman fashion.
“Oh my god, Reed, put me down!” I screech. “Someone’s going to see my butt in this dress!”
If that happens, I’ll be mortified and die. Death by embarrassment. It’s an actual thing, look it up. Thank God we’re in a dark alley and alone, or I might actually have to kill him.
I feel a sharp sting on my ass from Reed’s hand as he slaps it. Hard.
Well… I guess that’s my answer.
