“Where’s Christian?”
“He left with Kinley. I told him I’d find you and make sure you got home safely.”
“Did you know what I was doing?”
“Something like that.”
“So now what? We go back to pretending you don’t notice me?”
He didn’t say anything, but he didn’t have to. The expression on his face spoke for itself. It spoke volumes.
“Awesome. Thanks for nothing.”
I turned and left him there, ready to go break down in the bathroom at the arena of the rodeo. I didn’t realize we’d walked so far out to the woods. My heart hurt so profoundly I was surprised I was still breathing.
Head bowed.
My world tumbling around me.
Tears continued to cascade down my cheeks, and I bet I looked like a mess. Dark black mascara leaving lines on my face.
When it felt as if I couldn’t walk any longer, my legs giving out on me, I heard Julian loudly exclaim, “For fuck’s sake!”
I stopped and turned around at the same time he gripped onto the nook of my neck and slammed his mouth against mine.
He. Kissed. Me.
Julian kissed me.
I was shocked, confused, and overwhelmed. My eyes shut tightly, my breathing hitched, and my arms fell to my sides in defeat. All the sadness in me was gone. Feeling what I had wanted for so damn long. His lips were rough but smooth against mine. My heart drummed so fast, I swear he could hear it. My knees went weak the longer his lips stayed on mine. It was the most overpowering, mind-blowing, consuming emotion I’d ever felt in my entire life.
There would be no coming back from this. Ruining me for every other boy who might come along.
Reading my mind, he slowly parted his lips and pull me closer. Molding us into one person. I melted against him as I parted my lips, following his lead. Matching the same rhythm he’d set for me.
The second his tongue touched mine, I thought I was going to die. Right then and there, in his arms, with our mouths fused. I pulled back my tongue, and he took it as an open invitation to slide his into my awaiting mouth. Our tongues whirled in their own game of push and pull, turning this kiss into something more than I’d ever expected.
I wasn’t the only one losing my mind—Julian was getting lost in me too.
No words could come close to describing what was happening at that moment between us. The feelings he stirred deep within my heart matched my emotions with each stroke of his tongue. Feelings I didn’t think were possible to experience. Emotions I didn’t even think existed.
I never wanted him to stop kissing me.
When a soft moan escaped my mouth, he pecked my lips one last time before gradually pulling away from me. Leaving me breathless and wanting more.
Wanting him.
Incoherent thoughts ran rapidly in my mind while my eyes fluttered open. Leaning his forehead against mine, he gazed profoundly into my eyes.
“This was your first kiss, wasn’t it?”
I swallowed hard.
Eyes wide.
Heart open.
Love pouring out of me.
