Liam links his fingers with mine and moves his other hand from my hair to rest against the side of my neck. I'm sure he can feel my pulse skyrocket under his fingers. "I wanted you here to spend time with you. But I'd be lying if I said I wasn't hoping to kiss you tonight. I've been thinking about it for a while now, probably since the first day I met you. But I've been trying to be respectful of you. And if you tell me no, or that you don't want to, I'll understand, and we can watch the rest of the movie in silence, or you can even leave if you need to."
