“I guess we have to be more careful,” she said, staring at my mouth.
I inched closer, backing her up against the counter. “We should definitely be more careful.” My hand went to her belt loop again as I stared down at her.
Lily’s tongue darted out, wetting her lips, as she waited.
A beat passed.
And another.
Until the air was so thick between us it was hard to breathe.
Laughter filled the shed as the others watched Bryan and Cole duke it out on some video game. They were all distracted, or they were giving us some privacy. Either way, I couldn’t resist leaning down and sealing my mouth over hers.
Lily’s fingers twisted into my hoodie, yanking me closer until the hard lines of my body pressed against her soft curves. She whimpered as my tongue slipped past her lips and curled around her own.
Fuck, I loved kissing this girl.
It wasn’t hurried or superficial. It was real and raw, and it felt like she’d plunged her fist into my chest and grasped my heart in her hand.
When I finally broke away, I touched my head to hers and breathed in a shaky breath.
“Hi.” She smiled up at me.
“Hi,Lilypad.” I smirked.
“Hey.” Her fingers pinched my nipple, twisting hard.
“Joke,” I spluttered, wincing in agony. “It was a joke.”
Her laughter sank into me, fisting my heart again. This girl… this complicated beautiful girl.
I was falling for her.
Headfirst, irrevocably falling.
“It’s one of my less favorite nicknames.”
“There’s more?”
“Mr. Bennet has always called me Lilypad. My sister and friends call me Lil, sometimes Lilster, and my mom calls me Lily Star.”
“Lily Star, I like that.”
“There’s even a song.” Her cheeks dimpled, turning my favorite shade of pink.
“A song, you say?” My fingers found the loops in her jeans again. “And do I get to hear this song?”
“Maybe. One day.”
“Lovebirds,” Bryan yelled. “Why don’t you put each other down for a second and come play with me?”
“Oh my God,” Lily breathed, burying her face in my shoulder.
“Feeling a little left out, Bry?” I shot back.
“Damn right I am. Now get over here, Thatchman and show me what you’re made of.”
“We should probably…” Lily gazed at me, her mouth saying one thing and her eyes saying another thing entirely.
