Star Girl

It felt like someone had just thrown hot coals onto my body. The burning was so intense. I didn't want it to end, though. I shouldn't be kissing him was my first thought. My second thought was, man, he can kiss. I didn't have any experience in the area, but it sure felt good. He pulled away then. I looked up at him. I bit my bottom lip. He toyed with the hair behind my neck for a little moment. Harry took a step back, letting go.  

I couldn't help but feel more alone than ever. Harry must not feel what I had felt. I'm so stupid! Of course he hadn't felt anything remotely warm from kissing me. I guess it was just another memory among the many to cling to at night. I felt ashamed, too. I probably should have just let him have his space. It wasn't any of my business and now I was going to have to suffer through this. He probably thought I was just another fanatic anyhow. I looked away from him, tears gathering.

"Hey," Harry said, tugging my chin up. "Maybe I shouldn't have done that, but I just feel this thing between us. I couldn't control myself. It felt so good."

He kissed me again. I wasn't as unprepared this time, but it still burned hot. I felt his hands settle on the sides of my face. My hands wrapped themselves around his neck, almost instinctively. I forgot to breathe. I pulled away from Harry's lips and gasped.

"Ahem."  

"Well now," Said another voice.  

"Go Arry!" Cheered another voice.  

"You stupid twits," Harry grumbled.  

I buried my face inside his shirt.  

"Don't let them see me, please." I breathed.  

"We come back here to tell you that we just met some wicked gals and we find you snugging another one." Someone said.  

"Tom, Danny," Harry began. "Please leave"  

"But we want to meet her!"  

"Leave," Harry said through set teeth.  

"All right, mate. Whatever you say," Their laughter fading as they went.

I looked up at him and quickly said good bye. I walked to the door where Asia, Libby and Will were waiting. They asked where I had disappeared to and I told them a sales clerk jumped me. We all laughed and went on our way. We were halfway down the sidewalk when I glanced back. I saw Harry. He waved at me, one hand in his pocket, girls behind him swooning. I grinned and turned, tears again gathering my eyes. I was getting to emotional.
