In spite of being conscious about a lot of things,Kate still felt ecstatic as Dexter's lips brushed tenderly with affection against hers. Their kiss was slowly getting deeper and that was when Dexter pulled back a little,leaving a tingling sensation on her lips. Aside the light flush on her face,Dexter noticed the tears that had rolled down her cheek,which she quickly wiped off with a quiet sniff."...I'm sorry". Dexter told her quietly.
"For what?" Kate instantly realized how stupid her question sounded.
"Just...." Dexter trailed off,smiling a little at how cute she seemed at the moment."I uh__shouldn't have done that,you..."
"I have a boyfriend",Kate quickly said,a little more to herself than to him. She couldn't believe she actually let Dexter kissed her and she liked it. So,where does that leave George?
Dexter watched her avert her eyes from him and then took a moment before speaking,"Katrina. I was serious about what I said earlier. I really want you back....But__you don't have to give me an answer now,take your time to think about it". He told her in a yet gentle tone.
Kate met his eyes again and this time,she couldn't look away. He just had this strong effect on her and no matter how hard she tried,she couldn't ignore it. She was so unsure at the moment__even if she had wanted him back,she still couldn't say her answer right away.
"...Okay,so um__",Dexter then tried to ease the tension that was gradually coming up between them. He took the shopping bag he had left on her bedside table,"You should eat this before it loses its sweetness".
Kate rolled her eyes and almost smiled,he always used that line whenever he tried to feed her. She cleared her throat softly,"I'll eat it later,so...."
Dexter was already shaking his head,"Nope. I have to watch you eat it. Now". He sounded like he was teasing__but serious at the same time.
Kate sighed and took the bag from him anyway_she knew there was no point in arguing with him. She brought out the Sandwich and Vanilla Latte,she looked at Dexter again and he just gave her an encouraging smile. "You're seriously going to just sit there and__watch me eat?" Making me feel awkward and giddy all together? She added within herself. It might be weird,but that didn't mean she wanted him to leave.
"Yeah,I have to. Well,unless Heather comes back,and she's going to take a couple more hours to...",Dexter was saying,and just then,they both heard Heather's voice as she walked in. Kate's eyes went to her direction. "...A_nd I was wrong". Dexter still completed,not bothering to look back at Heather. Kate bit back a giggle.
"Sorry,Kate. I ran into someone when I was trying to__Oh Dexter you're here,and you already got her something". Heather moved closer to them,holding the two coffees in her hand firmly. She paused when she noticed the expression on their faces. "What's up?" Dexter stood up and and stepped closer to Heather,looking down at her with intimidation. Heather almost shrank,gulping down her building nerves,"What?__did I do?" She asked him unsurely.
