Laughing, she shoves at me until I sit up, taking her with me as I straighten. Then without any thought, I’m gripping the back of her neck, and my lips are on hers. I freeze, wondering if I’ve gone too fast or should back off, but that worry eases when her silky lips move against mine. Charged static spreads through my body as our tongues slip and slide together, completely forgetting where we are.
