27. Like, A Lot

Art class seemed to drag on forever. This was my last class of the day and I just wanted it to be over with. I reached into my pocket and pulled out the paper Paige had written to me on.

I love you

Her handwriting was so simple yet girly, there were loops at the end of her Y's and her L's were cursive. I folded the paper back up carefully and slipped it into my wallet.

Eventually, the last bell rang and I bolted out of the room. The sea of students seemed to get crazier everyday, I would have to push and shove just to get to the parking lot. When I did, I spotted Paige leaning against the light pole in front of my car, her ankles were crossed and she had a book in her hands.

"Hello," I said to her once I neared close enough, Paige's face broke out into a grin and she shut her book.

"Hi, handsome," Paige smiled at me. Her smile was like the sun, if you stared for too long, you might go blind.

"I missed you," I stepped forward and pulled Paige into my arms, her head settled under my neck. I saw Paige about an hour and a half ago, but I missed her all the same.

"Ditto," she whispered into my ear and ran her hands down my back.

I twisted the ends of her hair in my fingers and kissed her on the top of her head before pulling back.

"I'll come over and help you clean up," Paige sighed into my hand as I put it on her cheek.

"You don't have to, really." I wrapped my arms around her again and pulled her into my chest.

"I'm going to," Paige mumbled and I rested my cheek against her head.

How did I get so lucky? That may be corny of me but, how did I? I must have been a saint in another life because, damn, have you seen Paige? I felt my hands subconsciously move from her lower back into the back pockets of her jeans.

"Landon," I heard her warning in my ear and I pushed her backwards against my car.

"Paige," I copied her scolding voice, my hands came out of her pockets to rest on her hips.

She grabbed the back of my neck and pulled me to her, her lips were needy against mine and I was all too willing to reciprocate.

"Okay, okay," Paige pressed the palms of her hands against my shoulders and made an attempt to push me back. I smirked down at her and bent to kiss her once more.

"No, no, I can't do this is the parking lot. What I want to do to you right now is illegal to do in public," she whispered into my ear and I growled against her neck.

"Take me home then," I moaned as she pulled the collar of my shirt so I was flush against her.

"I don't think I have the willpower," she kissed my wet lips and pulled away, "to let you be," her lips found mine again and she pulled back just as fast as she kissed me, "out of my reach for that long," her nose trailed against my jaw and I felt it in my groin.

"Get a room!" Somebody shouted from across the parking lot and I shoved my middle finger into the air as I trailed my mouth down Paige's neck.

"Seriously, we need to go. I'm about to loose my mind," Paige mumbled breathlessly and I reluctantly pulled away from her.

"You better speed and run all the lights," I whispered into her ear and watched as she jogged to her car before getting into my own.

Driving down the highway proved to be more difficult then I assumed. I was already rock hard with the picture of Paige in my head and my foot pushed the gas a bit more. Damn, what this girl does to me.
