“You don’t seem all that excited about it, though.”
“How could you tell?”
He merely shrugs, his eyes smug and amused.
“Well, other than the fact that I’m going to miss the end of my sophomore year because of it…” I exhale. “I’m kinda nervous.”
He waves a hand. “Eh, you’ll be fine. You’ve done plenty of stage stuff already. Can’t be that different in front of a camera.”
“I’m not nervous about that.”
“Then, what?”
“It’s…” My cheeks burn. “Well, the role is kind of mature and I have to… kiss my co-star.”
Fox shrugs. “And?”
I hesitate for a little too long and he cocks his head.
“You’ve never been kissed before?” he asks.
“Pfft! Yeah. Of course, I…” I exhale, unable to even believe my own crap. “No. Not exactly.”
He laughs. “Really?”
I cringe. “Yes. Really.”
“You?”
“Look, you don’t have to rub it in, okay.” I retreat an inch. “It’s embarrassing enough already.”
He shakes his head. “Don’t be embarrassed. It’s kinda cute, actually.”
I look up. “It is?”
“Yeah. Here…” He wipes his mouth and turns to face me. “Kiss me.”
Kiss him? Kiss Fox Fitzpatrick?
Me?
“What?” I ask.
“Kiss me,” he says again. “Or I’ll kiss you. End result is more or less the same.”
Oh, god.
“Here?” I squeak. “Now?”
“Yes. Here. Now.”
“No!”
“You’d rather your first kiss be on set with some guy you hardly know in front of twenty crew members who just want you to get it over with so they can go to lunch?”
“Well…” I pause. “No. Not when you put it like that.”
“Then, come on.” He smiles. “Lay one on me.”
