It had become a routine for Taylor and Travis to go to school together. Every morning, Travis would wait for Taylor outside her house, leaning casually against his car with a smirk that sent butterflies fluttering in her stomach. It was a simple gesture, but it meant everything to Taylor, knowing that Travis was there, waiting for her, made the start of each day a little brighter.

The school days that followed were a mix of excitement and tension. Walking into the school together had become the new norm, and with it came the inevitable stares and whispers. It was as if the entire student body couldn't get enough of the sight of the popular bad boy and the quiet, nerdy girl making their way through the halls side by side. Some students looked on with curiosity, others with envy, but none of that mattered to Taylor. All she cared about was the way Travis would reach for her hand whenever he sensed her unease, his touch grounding her in the chaotic sea of high school life.

By now, they had become experts at stealing moments whenever they could. Their days were filled with quick, heated glances across the classroom, lingering touches in the hallways, and secret smiles that spoke of shared memories and unspoken promises. But it was the moments they managed to steal away from prying eyes that were the most thrilling.

One afternoon, after a particularly grueling class, Taylor found herself walking towards the library with Travis by her side. They had developed a habit of retreating to the library during their free periods, using the excuse of studying to spend more time together. Today, however, the air between them was charged with something more, something electric that had been building all day.

The library was quiet, the perfect sanctuary from the noise of the school. Taylor led the way to the back, where the rows of shelves created a secluded corner hidden from the rest of the room. As they reached the spot, Travis tugged on her hand, pulling her into a shadowy alcove between two towering bookshelves.

"Travis, what are you—" Taylor started, but her words were cut off by his lips crashing against hers.

The kiss was urgent, a collision of pent up desire and need. Taylor melted into him, her back pressing against the cool, hard surface of the bookshelf as she returned the kiss with equal fervor. His hands were everywhere, on her waist, her back, her neck, fingers digging into her skin as if he couldn't get enough of her.

Taylor's hands found their way into his hair, pulling him closer, deepening the kiss. The world outside disappeared, and all that mattered was the way Travis's lips moved against hers, the heat radiating from his body, and the way his touch sent shivers down her spine.

Travis broke the kiss just long enough to whisper against her lips, his voice rough with need. "I've been thinking about this all day. I couldn't wait any longer."

His confession sent a thrill through her, making her heart race. "Me too," she admitted breathlessly, her fingers tracing the line of his jaw.

Travis smirked, his lips brushing against hers in a teasing kiss before trailing down her neck. "We shouldn't be doing this here," he murmured between kisses, his breath hot against her skin. "But I can't help it."

Taylor bit back a gasp as his lips found the sensitive spot just below her ear, her knees threatening to buckle. "Then don't stop," she whispered, her voice barely audible as she pulled him even closer.

Travis didn't need any more encouragement. His hands slid down to her hips, gripping them firmly as he pressed her back against the bookshelf, his body pinning hers in place. Taylor's breath hitched as she felt his hand slip under the hem of her shirt, fingers tracing the soft skin of her stomach, inching higher and higher.
