me to move up to the next seat so he could sit next to me. My heart was in my throat, I didn’t expect him to sit with me, I figured he’d stay where he was. I was scared to breathe as my breaths were coming out in pants; I hoped with all my might that he couldn’t tell. I was trapped between him and the wall and the desk behind me. “You just find a topic you are uncomfortable with and we can start there.” He looked over to me and I could feel my stupid cheeks on fire, thankful for my long hair falling down over my face.
“ Erm… You see the name of the book?” He looked down at the book then back to me with a puzzled look on his face. “Yeah, that’s the topic I’m uncomfortable with” I gave him a small smile that didn’t reach my eyes and he laughed at me.
“ Right, well what is your worst part and we can go with that, ok?” I groaned.
“ Algebra and Functions? Actually, no, I don’t think we have long enough for that!” He laughed at me again.
“ How about we go over that in the next couple of lessons?” he offered with a sympathetic smile.
“ Ok.”
“ Trig? Geometry? Vectors? Sequence and Series?” I groaned dramatically and threw my head down on my arms resting on the desk, earning myself more laughter from him. “I could just sit here and berate your football club of preference.”
I looked up at him with a raised eyebrow. “Erm… Pass.”
“ Ok, I’ll let that one slide. How about I just write a few different things out and we’ll see how you do with them?”
“ Yeah ok, thanks.” he got up and grabbed his notepad and a pen and wrote a few different equations down for me from the book and passed them to me to solve. I got halfway through and they started getting tricky; I spun his pen through my fingers a few times before throwing it down on the table. “Arrgghhh I give up!” I sat back in my chair with my arms folded across my chest.
“ You can’t just give up!”
“ Yes I can. I just did. See? ” I motioned towards the table with my hand.
“ Look, I’ll help you.” Jamie shifted slightly closer to me and leaned over to see my work better, he started explaining the problems to me. Well I presumed that was what he was doing; I couldn’t concentrate on his words because he was too close for me to form coherent thoughts. I just wanted to lean in and kiss his beautiful lips so badly. I sat up again trying to listen to him more carefully but I couldn’t. He was too close; my head became foggy as I breathed in his aftershave. “Liv?”
“ Hmm?”
“ Are you even listening to me? Look I know it’s-” He turned to face me. He was only centimetres away from me. I felt his warm breath fan over my face like the day before and he swallowed hard; my breath caught in my throat, I held it in as his gaze drifted down to my lips. He slowly starting leaning closer to me, his beautiful light green eyes back on my dark ones, watching me. Heat surged from my centre, radiating through all of my body as he came closer.
His nose brushed against mine and my eyes fluttered closed; I felt his lips press softly against mine just once. Pulling away slowly we both stared at each other , silently pleading to carry on. He lifted his hand up to my face, brushing his fingertips over my forehead to move a strand of hair that had fallen into my eyes. I leaned in at the same time as him allowing my eyes to close again as we softly touched our lips together once more.
He ran his tongue along my bottom lip asking permission to deepen our kiss; I opened up for him , sighing softly as I felt his tongue invade my mouth seeking out mine. Our tongues felt like they were dancing together as he explored my mouth and I, his. His hands were in my hair pulling me closer to him; I shifted in my seat to face him with all of my body and he did the same as our kiss became more urgent. His thighs encased mine, pressing them together tightly; it was heaven and hell at the same time.
All rational thought
