This kiss

In the minutes before the kiss, her mind had been in utter chaos. The stresses of work and study flew in a whirlwind, combining with his ability to fluster her almost beyond the ability to speak. Her face was flushed as she attempted to string a coherent thought together and form it into a sentence aloud. The world was overwhelming and she could barely take a second more.

In the seconds that he lowered his head her breath caught in her throat and her eyes widened in realisation. Fingertips brushed over the soft skin of her cheek in a light caress before sliding into the depths of her hair. With his touch the chaos became calm and a new stirring began.

In the moment before his lips touched hers, she felt the warmth of his breath over her face. Skin prickling with excitement, a shiver raced the course of her spine and her heart began to speed. The voice of panic in the back of her mind was drowned by a desire to give in, and her body leaned forward into the wall of his chest. She wanted to lose herself in his gaze, but her eyes drifted closed of their own accord and she was lost instead to the sensation of his lips meeting hers. The first touch was feather light, the merest brushing of his warm, soft lips over hers. When her fingers curled into the fabric of his shirt, feeling the muscle of his chest beneath, he took it as an invitation for more. His lips hovered a long moment barely against hers before he moved forward again.

Moving slowly and deliberately he explored the silken feel of her full lips, learning each dip and outline. His tongue teased the dimple beneath her lower lip; causing her lips to part and her breath to come out on a sweet sigh. Seizing the opportunity, his tongue flicked teasingly over her lower lip, sweeping around the curve of her mouth in an enticing dance before slipping between her lips. She shivered with the shock of electricity his taste sent down her spine, her tongue curling around his, stroking along it and building the fire within.

Her hands flattened against his chest and slid upward, over his shoulders and around his neck. The movement brought her body firmly against his, and she revelled in the contrast of his hard body against her soft, yielding form. As their lips moved against each other, their tongue danced, a slow seductive tempo that belied the intense desire rising in them. His tongue tempted and teased, enticing hers to follow into his mouth where he captured it between his lips. He sucked softly, and she shuddered against him, helpless to stop the small moan that formed deep within and escaped. His free hand slid down the curves of her body, and around to cup her buttocks, pulling her hips hard into his. Heart pounding, the blood roared in her ears until she was sure she would faint from the pure pleasure of his kiss, her head was spinning so out of control.

He released her tongue, and eased back just enough that his lips did not fully leave hers but allowed her to catch a breath. His arms did not release their hold, for which she was grateful, his caress on her ass driving her increasingly crazy. Lips touching lightly, he held still, waiting until she was ready. She was more than ready … her hand tugged him those precious millimetres lower, and she took his lower lip between her own, suckling gently. When her teeth nipped lightly, she was rewarded with the shiver of his body against hers. Emboldened, she slipped a hand beneath his arm and around, dragging her nails the length of his spine as she tortured his lips.

His moan seemed to fill her ears, and she thought it was the sexiest sound she would ever hear. She felt it resonate from head to toe and wondered how she could draw another from him. Licking her tongue across his lips, she teased him, nipping, sucking and pecking until he growled, a guttural sound that thrilled her to the core. He backed her up until her back met the wall, jarring her slightly, and his lips claimed hers greedily. His hand tugged her hair, tilting her head back so he could slant his lips over hers at the perfect angle, his tongue delving and tasting her sweetness. Gripping her ass firmly, he lifted her with such ease that she gasped in surprise. Hooking her legs around his waist instinctively, she clung to him and became very aware of his hips nestled firmly between her thighs. Deep brown eyes locked on hers, and she noticed the shade was darker than normal, and wondered if her eyes reflected her desire in a similar way.

Both breathing hard, they gazed at each other a long moment. His thumb rubbed over her bottom lip, reddened and bruised from their kiss, deliciously swollen and tempting. She kissed the pad of his finger, smiling softly as she flicked her tongue against it. His eyes flared, his hand moved to cup her face and his mouth came down over hers. Moaning approval, her arms tightened around him and she welcomed the invasion of his warm tongue, meeting it with her own. Whiskers prickled against her soft skin, adding to the sensations that threatened to make her lose control. Fingers pushed into his hair, massaging his scalp and tugging him ever closer. He pressed her further into the wall, trapping her with his weight as his mouth trapped her tongue, sucking on it as his own tongue stroked and teased. They explored each other endlessly, wrapped in each other’s embrace as they kissed passionately.

Nothing in the world had ever, or would ever, matter more than this kiss.
