He didn't follow as she moved away from him. A pang of disappointment would resonate in her chest. She beat down the questions that flared up, refusing to acknowledge them. He would sit, making himself comfortable despite that distance that seemed to stretch on between them. She didn't like it, she wanted him to be closer so that she could feel his touching her and his warmth wrapping around her. Again he would whisper, pulling her gaze to his face. What was she thinking? There was so much, she didn't know where to begin. A small smile would lift the corners of her lips. "I was just thinking that you're awfully far away." Her voice was soft, shy almost. She would peer up at him through her lashes, unsure of how he would react to her statement. Her mama had taught her many things, including matters of the heart and how to protect such a fragile thing. But she found herself feeling defenseless against him. His touch was far to enjoyable. His voice way to alluring. His scent overwhelmingly intoxicating. She had defense against such things. |
