He tickled me gently but the effect was dangerous. I fell onto the bed and Jake come on top of me, continuing to tickle me.
"Stop Jake. Stop!" I laughed out loud. He finally stopped and placed his hands on either side of my face so he was not putting his weight on me. I breathed out heavily as I looked into his luminous green eyes. We both stared at each other, being lost in one another's eyes."
