“Like what?” I push to my feet, not sure where in the hell my words are coming from.
“Things you’re not ready for, let’s leave it at that.”
I want to challenge him. Ask him how he knows I’m not ready, but deep down I know he’s right. It’s easy to get lost in the excitement and the thrill of it all, but as the rational part of me slowly returns, so does my voice of reason.
Sebastian kisses the top of my head and then takes off into the foyer, stopping to slip on his shoes. I walk him to the door, not really sure what to say or what to do.
“Thanks for tonight, Tess. I needed this.” He pulls me against his chest, my arms going around his taut frame.
I close my eyes and inhale deeply, having never smelled anyone who smells quite like Sebastian. Unlike Dylan, Sebastian is more man than boy, and his scent reflects that—musky and masculine.
“Me, too,” I admit, having not realized how much until this very moment.
“Can I call you tomorrow?” he asks, pulling back to look down at me.
“I’d like that,” I answer truthfully.
The smile I get in return nearly takes my breath away. My god, he’s even more handsome than I realized before. It’s one thing to check Sebastian out from a distance, it’s quite another to be so up close and personal with him.
It’s almost inconceivable that a guy like this would ever waste his time on a girl like me and yet, here he is. Looking at me like I’m all he sees, and here I am feeling like I’m seconds away from melting into a puddle at his feet.
