“Get out of your head,” Joey grunted softly, nose brushing against mine as he pressed another kiss to my lips and pulled me back to the moment. To him. “Stay with me,” he instructed, green eyes locked on mine. “Be here with me.” “I am,” I whispered. “I’m with you, Joe.” With my eyes wide open and focused entirely on his, I forced my fears to the back of my mind, letting my body take over the thinking for me as I drowned in my feelings for him.
