I don’t have any of the distracting quote pictures today. I made it…a whole three days managing to use them? Not that anyone but me knew that’s what I was trying to do. It was going to be my new ‘thing’ on my blog. A picture with an (inspirational or otherwise) quote every day.
But I ran out of time because…I’m to one of my absolute favorite parts of my story and I got so caught up in revisions yesterday I couldn’t think of anything else. I’m going to get back to it today, but in the mean-time, this is what I was working on yesterday. ‘She’ doesn’t get a name here, because that might ruin the surprise, right? I’m halfway through the story and…hehehe…I love it <3 (am I allowed to say that about my own story?) “So…” Conner let the words sink in. It didn’t make any sense. “If I’m not your job any more, why are you here tonight?”
She leaned closer, face inches from his. Her voice dropped to a whisper. “I wanted to see you.”
He told himself the heat crawling under his skin was purely a physical reaction. “How’d that work out for you?”
She scooted closer, nose almost touching his. “You were there, you know as well as I do. But since you’re asking, even though it didn’t go quite like I thought it would, I’m not disappointed.”
He watched her eyes, fascinated with the way the blue mirrored everything she said. “Sorry about that.”
“No you’re not.” She licked her lips. “Are you going to kiss me, or not?”
He pulled back, but not a lot, enjoying the energy between them. “What makes you think you’re one of those special few worth giving a chance?”
“What makes you think you’re more than a one-night stand?” she countered.
He didn’t have a response, so he improvised. Wrapping his fingers in her hair, he pulled her closer and kissed her. She whimpered and rested a hand on his chest, crushing her mouth against his.

Love the romantic tension between them! Well done 😉
