Fool me

Chapter 22- Catch 22

Tessa POV

(Unedited)

His lips met mine and I felt my mind lose sense of what was happening. I sat there frozen, while he placed a burning kiss to my lips. Just as he was about to pull away, I pulled at the bridge of his shoulder and crashed his mouth to mine. Joey didn't hesitate to kiss me back and pressed his plump lips harder to mine. His hands trail from the base of my neck, down my arms and finally gripping my waist tightly causing me to gasp.

I could feel Joey smirk in satisfaction as he decided to deepen the kiss. My hands make its way to his soft hair, giving it a slight tug, making him let out a soft moan. I can't help but smile that I had that effect on him.

His tongue glides across my bottom lip; asking for entrance but I stubbornly deny, making Joey groan. I smirk at his childishness and wrap my arms around his neck pulling him closer to me.

I feel so dizzy, it is as if this is not my body and I am watching this in 3rd person. His kisses are making me feel high and breathless, and I can't seem to get enough of it. I feel like I am on cloud 9 and I am not planning on coming down anytime soon.

Eventually we pull away with goofy smiles on our faces. Joey's lips are red and swollen-mine probably is too based on the fact that my lips are throbbing- and his eyes hold a lustful and excited glint to them.

"Feeling better now, babydoll?" He breathes, gesturing to my hand that was bleeding a few minutes before. I look down at my hand that now had brown flakes resting upon the cut. The blood had finally dried.

I had completely forgotten about my injured hands, I won't deny that Joey's kisses did help me forget about the pain. In fact, I had completely forgotten it was even there.

"Kind of." I blush, not wanting to sound like a complete fangirl in front of him. His smirk only widens when I say this.

"Kind of?" He asks amused, he leans closely staring with his green orbs into my brown ones. The sudden proximity has the wind in my throat and my heart smacking against my chest.

"Y-yes" I stammer, trying to sound confident but failing miserably.

Ugh! Did I have to sound so nervous? I sound like a cat near water; not knowing if it will be thrown in.

"Oh really?" He asks again, the amusement only growing bigger in his face and voice. His lips are now in a wide grin and I try my best not to look at his mouth, just in case I do something reckless...like attacking his mouth with mine...

"Really." I surprisingly say without sounding like a nervous wreck ball. He arches up his eyebrow in a teasing manner.

"How about now?" He asks, placing a gentle kiss on my cheek. I shake my head robotically.

"Nope." I say when in actual fact I felt better just at the sight of him topless. My cheeks turn rosy when I realize that he is still not wearing a shirt.

Goodness gracious Tessa, don't look down...it could be the death of you.

"Hmmm...and now?" He whispers before leaning in, placing a lingering kiss on the corner of my mouth. My eyes flutter close, savouring the tingling sensation he gives me.

He then kisses my nose, my jaw and I can't help but feel mad that he is teasing me. Before I know it, my hands grab the sides of his head and smash his lips to mine. Joey smiles into the kiss, while snaking his arms around my waist.

Joey pulls away when a loud ringing erupts from his pocket. We both let out a groan at the sudden interruption. Joey's hand is still wrapped around my waist, and digs in his pocket with the other before pulling out his phone.
