"Do you ever give being insufferable a rest? Don't you get tired of annoying me and then acting smug about it?" Annoyed, I asked the infuriating girl sitting across me. "Why do you always find a fault with everything I say or do? Could it be that I'm the first girl that isn't flustered around the infamous Mitchell Clarke?" Mila raised a brow. Once again annoyed with the girl who's been taunting and teasing me for way too long, I abruptly stood up from my chair and made my way across the table to where she was seated, I placed one hand on the table and the other on the headrest of her chair and hovered over her, my face a mere centimeter away from hers. "Ooh turn on the air-conditioner things are about to get H.O.T - hot." Mila remarked as she fanned herself. "Don't act invincible, I see you when I'm not looking, you're dying for me." I whispered Mila shifted up in her seat and moved closer, she looked in me eyes and challenged, "If you're man enough, out that theory to the test and kiss me." --- Mitchell and Mila are complete opposites.

"Do you have any idea how damn frustrating you are?" He trapped me between him and the wall. Stubbornly, I looked squarely at him, "You say this like it's news to you." He pursed his lips, clenched his jaw, and stared at me with darkened eyes before he closed the gap between us. I stared at him squarely as I felt his body heat radiated off me, my lips parted and my breathing picked up a notch. He placed one hand on the wall and brought his lips an inch away from mine as the other hand trailed up my arms, "I am going to make you feel my frustration." I ran my finger along his jaw and dared him with my eyes, "I'm Mila," I grinned, "You can try but we both know you won't succeed." He ran his thumb over my bottom lip, "Don't take my love for you as weakness," he stated and captured my lips with a fiery kiss.
