"Because in that case I'll have to stop and believe me, I don't want to." he says gazing at my lips."You realize that this is a bad idea right?" I ask him.There is a smile playing on his lips. "Is it?"I roll my eyes at him. "Yes, a really, really bad idea." His hand goes to my cheek and he begins to stroke it with the back of his hand. "It doesn't feel that way."I grab his hand to make him stop doing that, not wanting to fall into his charms but it's too late anyway. "You want to keep kissing me..." I whisper."All the time..." he says, our lips are so close that I can feel them move against mine as he talks."You can't tell anyone about this..." I whisper closing my eyes.
