Finding Love

Chapter 38

Aloras POV

"Hold still," I scowl, holding her face harder while Lynn fights a laugh.

I roll my eyes before carefully applying the eyeliner. Lynn's hands stay rested on my sides as I straddle her lap.

I pull away a bit, staring to make sure it's even. Lynn opens her eyes, and my attention moves to them instead of inspecting the makeup around her eyes.

"Do I look pretty?" She whispers with a teasing grin, her hands roaming to my lower back only to draw us closer. My chest presses into hers, and I wrap my arms around her neck while she smiles up at me.

"You already looked pretty," I tell her, making her grin.

Pulling back, I grab a light shade of lipstick before grabbing Lynn's chin in my hand.

Sitting on the floor of my bedroom with music playing quietly in the background, I'm doing Lynn's makeup simply because she asked me to.

She was curious as to what she'd look like with it, and I was happy to show her.

"Don't smile," I whisper as I lean closer, eyeing her lips as I hold the tube of lipstick close.

"Hard not to," She whispers back, and I roll my eyes, fighting my own smile as I tilt her chin to get a better angle.

I gently paint her bottom lip with a pale pink colour. I let out a breath as her hands slip under the back of my shirt, resting on my bare skin.

I feel her eyes on me, but I keep mine glued to her lips, fighting the urge to kiss her.

"Alora..." She whispers, and I remind myself to stay focused. "Don't talk," I mumble. I should be focused on getting her lipstick on right, not kissing her.

Lynn hums in agreement, pushing my hand holding the lipstick away just as she closes the gap between us. "I agree. Let's not talk, " Lynn whispers against my lips.

I let out a breath, feeling her mouth brush mine. I almost groan.

I then snap out of it and bring my eyes up to meet hers. They're already on me, and I narrow my eyes at her. "You're distracting me," I accuse her, and she lets out a breathless laugh.

"I'm distracting you? You're the one sitting on my lap, holding my face while staring at my lips" She raises her eyebrows, shooting me an accusing look, all while wearing a teasing smile.

"To apply lipstick," I remind her, and she hums as she leans impossibly closer. I feel one of her hands move, and she places it at the back of my neck. "Liar.." She whispers.

Seconds later, her lips are on mine.

I groan immediately.

Fuck it.

I toss the lipstick to the side, cup her face, and kiss her back.

She smiles against my lips, unable to help it. I let out a breath. "Bitch.." I whisper, and she just laughs before kissing me hard again.

I fucking melt.

I cling to her tightly, while she uses her hands to pull me closer.

We're pressing against each other, but it's still too fucking far.

Lynn finds a solution and pulls my shirt off over my head.

I pause, my eyes going wide as she tosses it to the side. "This okay?" She whispers, sounding breathless as she looks at me, and the look in her eyes has me shivering.

"Fuck" I whisper, pulling her close just to kiss her again. She hums against my lips, her hands roaming up my bare sides, causing goosebumps wherever she touches.
