Saving him!

Chapter 23 : Goodbye awkwardness

I stood still, frozen. Felicity was also frozen. I was just staring at Nate and he was staring at me. I went to open my mouth when he cut me off.

"Dance with me?" He asked and I couldn't refuse but I couldn't talk in general, I just nodded.

We moved to the centre of the room, the music was now a slow song, this world hates me. Nate placed his hand at the base of my back and another taking my hand, lacing his fingers with mine. I stared at our entwined fingers and placed my free hand on his shoulder. I looked back to where I left felicity. Not only was she unfrozen but she had been joined by Lisa and Chris who was shooting thumbs up towards us.

I turned my attention back to Nate who was staring at me. The atmosphere wasn't a bad awkward anyone it was a good awkward, we both knew we wouldn't talk about Monday but we both knew it wasn't completely off the table.

Nate was wearing a navy tux and a white dress shirt. The tux obviously complimented his body structure as did my dress that Lisa brought because she knew I didn't remember about the dance because I would have packed a skater dress probably.

"You look beautiful" Nate spoke gently, I didn't realise when I was thinking we were both staring into each other's eyes.

"Thanks" I blushed "You clean up nice yourself" I spoke, he chuckled "What now?"

"Nothing" He chuckled lightly trying not to draw attention

"What?" I questioned smiling

He leaned forward and wiped my upper lip slightly "You had litter on your lips"

I smacked his shoulder "I could had de-glittered myself" I laughed

I rested my head on his chest and he moved his hand which was in mine and let his hands join at the bottom of my back, he rested his chin on my head. We were swaying. I didn't even realise the photography teacher take a photo of us. Which I totally wanted.

If you looked at us right now you'd assume we were a couple, Hell I'd assume that we were a couple but we weren't and this night would eventually end and I wasn't looking forward to it but I was going to enjoy it while I still can.

"Can I steal her?" I heard Lisa spoke

I looked at her and Nate smiled pulling away from me, 'come back' I scream internally. I looked at Lisa and she was holding a sheet of paper. She turned it around and it was the picture of me and Nate. We were both smiling, my head resting on his chest and his head resting on my head, his arms hugged my body and we looked like we were in utter bliss.

"You were dancing for 5 songs" Lisa spoke looking for a reaction

"What, I thought it was just one?" I spoke raising an eyebrow

"At least 15 minutes" she smiled

Myself and Lisa decided to search for Felicity, but when we found her she was in a compromised position the bathroom with a guy resting between her legs and kissing her, intensely. We backed out of the bathroom as quietly as we could, which was pretty slick. I should be a spy.

It was now 11:00pm and myself and Lisa wanted our bed and Felicity could eventually come back or stay in the guy's room. We got changed into our pyjamas and me in Jared's shirt and my short shorts.

We weren't in bed long until Lisa fell asleep. She was out by 12:00 but I still lay there, trying to sleep after the most memorable night ever.

Laying in the cold sheets of relaxing comfort, dismissing the whistle of snoring that faced me due to Lisa. Ignoring sounds and slipping into a state of my delusions. Imagining and investing my time into the idea that I could touch his skin, his lips...

That's when a loud knock signalled my attention to the door, and then again.

Slipping out of my bed sheets the cold air hit my legs due to my short shorts resulting in an instant effect of horripilation.

Opening the door quietly to not interrupt Lisa's slumber, he stood there. His hair slightly covering his eye, his lips slightly parted that glistened with a touch of mischief in his eyes. He stood over me, luring me closer.

"Is she awake?" Nate questioned, knowingly talking about Lisa who was snoring

"No, she is snoring really loud" I laughed "Why?"

"No reason" he replied huskily, stepping closer, wait was Nate about to k-

Nate cupped my cheeks my eyes widening, his lips crashing hungrily onto mine, pulling my waist closer with every synchronised movement dragging us deeper into the kiss. My fingers laced through his hair making him purr with gratification. His arms snaked around my body, keeping me in position. I was trapped in a mysterious kiss that Nate had created.

His tongue massaged my lips, asking if he could enter. I parted my lips to grant him access. His lips made their way to my jaw and then slowly to my neck releasing a moan of approval. His body pushed mine to the wall gently which made the door close with a slight bang. His hands clutched mine seductively raising them eagerly above my head, making my body sink further into the cold wall; the kiss grew deeper and more passionate every second. The aurora was exiting and lustful.

His lips continued to travel further and further down my neck and the moans grew. His lip brushing my ear about to speak when a cough distracted us from each other.

"Get a room, and not this one. It's mine" Lisa chuckled before placing her head back onto the pillow causally.

We stood there, no space between us, not knowing what to say. He stepped back slowly and opened the door and disappeared out of the long hallway.

Nate just kissed me and I really liked it!
