"I thought you said you hate burnt popcorn."
"Huh?" he asks with a stupefied stare, and then he turns to follow my gaze. "Shit," he spews while jerking open the door. He frowns as he opens the bag, and then he shakes his head. "Sorry."
"I happen to like it that way," I say with a laugh while pulling down a bowl.
His body brushes up against mine as he pours it in, and I feel my heartbeat quickening from the accidental graze. He swallows hard, and I look up to see him staring at me.
"You look… really good," he murmurs softly.
"Thanks," I murmur while blushing again.
His thumb reaches up to stroke my blushing cheek, and my breath catches in my throat.
"Pink really is a good color on you."
Considering I'm wearing a red top and blue jeans, it's obvious he's now referring to my blushing hue.
"Movie," I strain out, my whole body suddenly aching to feel his hands somewhere else.
He smirks lightly, and takes the popcorn from the counter to start heading into the living area.
"I picked a zombie flick. I thought horror would be better than a chick flick, and those two were quite literally your only options."
I laugh a little and then nod. "Sounds good."
He sits down on the large sectional with the remote in his hand, and I sit down a safe distance away from him.
"You won't be able to reach the popcorn from there. I don't bite… unless you want me to," he jokes, his eyes sizzling through me.
I swallow hard and force a smile as I move in closer. Our legs graze each other's and I stiffen up a little. The smallest touch from him seems to be igniting fires all over my body, and unless he plans to extinguish them, I'll burn alive with too much contact.
"You okay?" he asks as the movie starts.
"Yeah," I shakily release while cramming some of the burnt popcorn into my mouth.
Bring on the blood and gore and kill this lust.
The movie is almost over, and despite the blood and guts, I'm starting to burn worse than the popcorn I almost single handedly demolished. My leg has pushed against his more, and he's slouched down with his hand resting on his leg, close to mine.
So close to my change, my hormones really are at an all time uncontrollable level. This was so stupid. I hate to admit this, but I should have listened to my mother.
"I'll be right back," I murmur uncomfortably while standing up.
He pauses the movie before tilting his head.
"Too much?" he asks, motioning toward the horror scene.
Not enough. I need something to completely kill my desire to rip his clothes off right now.
"Um, nah. I just need something to drink. You want something?"
"Do you have any wine or anything?" he asks curiously.
"Yeah. White or red?"
"White, please."
I smile and nod while diving into the kitchen. I grab the carnations that are resting in the window and bite through the petals while digging around the cabinets for my honey. As soon as I find it, I turn it up and let the slow-falling, sticky mess fall into my mouth.
