Our fingers intertwined. He leaned over me as I stood up on my tip-toes. Our lips pressed together, and I immediately felt the goose bumps. My knees were weak, and butterflies flew in my stomach.

Every part of me wanted to hold on to him, and never let go. I would never, ever get used to this feeling. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Highest Rankings: #1 in Hookups #1 in Players #1 Numbness
