Carter was holding up an umbrella keeping us from getting soaked while he stood in front of me with an emotionless expression. " I saw duckies" I breathed out chewing on my bottom lip. Pulling me closer Carter wrapped his arm around my waist keeping me in place while I placed my hands on his chest taking deep breaths. "The only one allowed to bite your lip is me, sí" he responded lowering his head. Before I could think of anything to say his lips were on mine. He instantly took control of the kiss, exploring my mouth as he pleased. -------------------------------------
