Sharing the same car with Natsu would be awkward enough, but sharing one with him alone and on the way back to his house is overwhelming.

We sit in silence as the radio plays some random, over played, pop song.

My hands are folded tightly in my lap as I force myself to look out the window.

We normally would be jamming out together and singing our hearts out to these over played songs, but this time we both knew it wasn't the time for that.

My skin and lips still tingle from his touch, my whole body is warm.

I curl my lips inward as I think about what just happened.

They way his fingers caressed my skin, they way his lips left me wanting more, his eyes and the way they encaptured me.

My cheeks are dusted pink just at the thought of him.

Natsu isn't just some boy that I grew up with, he's a man now.

I hate to say it but I liked what he did to me, I hate to say it but I almost wanted it to continue.

Those type of thoughts would get me in trouble.

We can't do something like that together.

It's almost as if it's against the rules, it felt wrong but so right.

I remember how scrawny he used to be and how much of a cry baby he was when we were growing up.

But that little scene that just happened opened up my eyes.

He isn't some scrawny dorky boy anymore, he goes for what he wants and he's not afraid to take it.

That just made me want to give in.

But I can't, and he knows we can't give in.

We're just friends and that's how it'll stay.

I didn't notice him pulling over until the car stopped, I was tugged from my thoughts to look at him.

My heart jumps finding his onyx eyes already looking at me, knowing that he shouldn't be driving right now; After our incident, we split ways for us to get ahold of ourselves, knowing drinking would be involved.

Sometimes I would tease him about his eye color, they sometimes look green in the right lighting.

"What are we doing?" I lean back a bit, my back resting against the window.

We had pulled off onto the side of the highway, cars speeding by, the fleeting lights catching Natsu's eyes making them twinkle.

"We need to talk" his voice is low, he is also oddly calm as he speaks.

"About?" My voice cracks and I internally curse at myself, I sound like a nervous pubescent boy.

"You know what about" his hand tightens around the steering wheel, and I swallow slowly.

"Is that a good idea?" Is my quiet response, my fingers playing with the hem of my shirt.

"We're going to have to talk about it at some point" he runs a hand through his messy hair.
