He was transfixed with watching her; the way her pupils dilated and her nostrils flared just slightly. She parted her lips and he watched as her tongue came out to wet them.
“I want you to.” Greer swore that his heart stopped. She wanted him to kiss her. Could he do this? What if his parents walked in? She put her hands on either side of his face and he didn’t grimace. “Don’t panic,” she whispered. He could feel her breath as it wafted over his skin. She smelled like cinnamon from their candy, and he liked it. It didn’t make him want to rub his face.
Alexis stared into his eyes, her hands still on his face. “When you’re ready. I’m not pushing you.”
Greer leaned closer until his forehead touched hers. He sat there, wondering if he was going to pass out before he kissed her. She dropped her hands from his face and instead put her arms around his neck. He had never been touched like that.
“Are you okay?”
He nodded, not able to speak. Gathering all of the courage he had ever had, Greer moved closer to her. It seemed like it took forever for him to reach her, but when his lips made contact with hers, he made a sound he had never made before. She was so… perfect.
He touched his lips to hers gently, feeling the pillowy softness against his own lips. He knew how this was supposed to go; he had watched enough movies. But no one tells you how to do this the correct way, and he had no idea what he was supposed to do now.
Greer pulled away slightly, his hands shaking as he brought them up to her face. “Alexis,” he whispered, using his thumbs to trace her cheeks. “Is this okay?”
She nodded, a blush spreading over her cheeks. “Again.”
She was asking him to kiss her again? Greer grinned, hope blooming in his chest. She liked it. He did a good job. He moved quicker this time, taking her lips in between his with a little more force. This time she made a noise he could only hope was satisfaction as their lips moved together. Her arms tightened around his neck, and he moved his hands from her face to around her waist.
They kissed for what could’ve been seconds or days. All he knew was that his head was in the clouds and it was like she had just unlocked something inside him that had been waiting for her his entire life.
She had never felt the way she was feeling right now, with Greer’s lips pressed gently against hers. His hands were on her lower back, and she could feel the warmth of them through her dress. She never, ever wanted this moment to end. She might have to check to see if her head was still attached, or if it was floating into outer space.
Alexis had no idea how long it had been since he had first put his lips against hers, but her pounding heart rattling against her rib cage told her it hadn’t been long enough. Greer Henderson had kissed her. Many times. It wasn’t lost on her how monumental this was for him, but it was just as much for her. She felt her body shaking with the overwhelming feelings that were taking over.
She whimpered when she felt his tongue against her lips. This man could kiss . While Alexis didn’t have much experience with this, she didn’t need much to know that he knew exactly what he was doing. She moved her hands slowly from behind his neck to run through the hair at the nape of his neck, opening her mouth to allow him to deepen the kiss. She was worried that something she did was going to push him over the edge, but so far he seemed just as much into it as she was.
When her tongue touched his, his eyes flew open. She froze, not sure what he was thinking, but Greer closed his eyes again, continuing to move his tongue gently against hers. She had died and gone to heaven. They had all been right. Hailey, Cate, her parents. She didn’t want to be his friend. She had been fighting what she thought couldn’t happen since she first met Greer. Now, there was no turning back for her.
A car door outside made Greer jump, and he pulled back,
