Chapter Nineteen

His kiss said more than any words ever could. Longing, pain, passion and hope all formed an unspoken truth in the featherlight way our mouths touched. From the tips of my toes right up to my scalp, the tsunami of finally feeling his kiss swept through my body, tearing down every wall of defence in its path.

As he gently brought his hands to rest on my waist, his lips parted. Each delicious movement of Noah's mouth caused another bone to fall from my skeleton. Each fleeting brush dissolved another muscle. I was melting into him, and I didn't want it to ever stop.

Lightly, his tongue began to dance against mine, the heat of his mouth igniting the flicker that had been burning deep within me since that first day on the bus. Running my hand through his hair to the back of his neck, I pulled him closer, my other hand reaching out to steady myself on the bed as the weight of his torso pushed against my chest.

The pressure of his body against mine forced my breaths to become shallower. As my supporting arm began to shake slightly, Noah's hands slid from my waist to hold my back with his wide palms. Smoothly, he maneuvered my body down until I was laying flat with him above me, his legs straddled across my thigh.

Whether it was an intentional move or not, as he bent his body low to continue our kiss, his knee pushed gently between my legs. The bolts that shot through every last one of my nerve endings caused me to gasp loudly into his mouth.

Feeling his lips spread into a smile as he continued to tease my tongue with his, he pushed his knee towards my centre again. As my body tensed under the aching warmth, his mouth moved along my cheek to graze my collarbone, exposed thanks to my off-the-shoulder jumper.

Another small groan escaped my mouth, right next to his ear. Not even at my own sensations this time, but the fact I could feel his hardness against my thigh while his knee continued to apply pressure between my legs.

"Those noises," he breathed against my neck. "You're killing me."

Not knowing how to reply, I pulled his face towards mine and met his lips once again, exploring the inside of his mouth like someone only just tasting ice cream for the first time.

Placing his forearms flat on either side of my head, Noah's body slid expertly down on top of mine, as the muscles in his arms rippled with his full weight.

As his groin came to rest on mine, I instinctively raised my hips to meet him. If his knee had felt good against me, then this blew it completely out of the water. Wrapping my ankles tightly around him, I ran my hands up and across the skin of his back underneath his T-shirt.

"Noah," I gasped softly, as my body ached with the sensation of finally feeling his pelvis pressing between my legs.

Pulling his head back, his green eyes focused on mine. "Are you okay?" he asked, "Am I hurting you?"

"No, not at all," I giggled. "You just kind of, hit a spot, that's all."

"Yeah?" he replied, flashing a wicked grin down at me. "You mean when I did this?" he asked, as he pushed his groin against me again.

My skirt had ridden up with his movements, leaving the thin pair of black tights as the only barrier between us. Pulling my leg up further, almost around his waist, he pushed down on me again as he ran his tongue lightly up my neck.

Groaning at the two sensations combined, I arched my back beneath him.

He exhaled against my ear. "If you keep making noises like that I'm going to come in my pants like some fucking teenager."

Keeping my eyes closed as he continued teasing my neck with his lips, a lazy smile spread across my face at the thought of doing that to him.

Digging my nails into the skin on his back, I responded quietly. "I could always make you come in other ways if you like?"
