'Can I do something?' He asked nervously.

I nodded. He looked at my hair, at my necklace then back to my eyes, he looked at nose, cheeks until he came to my lips.

I held my breath because I knew what he was about to do next.

This is when I stopped playing hard to get.

He leans in, "Thats one of the reasons I chose to sit next to you." his whisper sends a chill up my spine, "That and you're always the prettiest girl in the church." Kolby always makes my Sunday best even better. I keep the ends of my mouth from giving away too much as a whisper back, "Better watch yourself, hick." I point upwards, "Marry had her eyes on you." "Her and half this town." he says. "Doesn't that worry you?" I ask causing his face to soften. "You know what?" he says, "When I see you, none of them matters. Nothing matters." his breath feels like a soft tickle on my neck while his words hit me like a nine-ton sack of bricks. * Find out in The Water Girl's Secrets [Completed] - currently editing

Blaze White is the New Girl at the Prep school in her mothers old home town. But her only goal for senior year is to keep a low profile, no friends, no parties and NO boys. Axel may be adored and worshipped by his peer-but he hates people, except 5. So when a beautiful but closed off girl suddenly enters his group. He is not welcoming of the mysterious beauty despite the pull they both feel. •••• WARNING: This was written many moons ago. I have decided to put it back up because of a large request from readers. However, I was a kid when I wrote this so take it with a grain of salt. *** Like a deer in head lights, I freeze and watch as the car comes towards me expecting to get hit. But to my surprise, the car swerves to the side slightly next to me and comes to a stop. I take a deep breath I didn't know I was holding at the driver's side door swings open and a very pissed off Axel steps out. "Thank god," I mumble and place my hands on my knees to catch my breath. "Blaze?" He says and I hate it. I hate how he says my name as if it's his. Like he knows it's the only thing I want to hear, him calling out to me, looking at me, focused to me. It's the first time in my life I wanted someone's attention so badly I didn't care how I got it. And that was too dangerous for me to hold onto. "Are you insane or some shit? I could have killed you!" He says and starts to walk towards me. I take a big breath and step back away from him, "s-stop! Axel," I stutter still panting. It's then he notices the blood on my hands and shirt. "Is that blood?" He asks staring at my shirt and I take another step back. "Stop, stay b-back," I try to say confidently but I can't even breath right. Realizing he won't listen I start to turn around planning to make a break for it. "Don't run from me Blaze it won't go well," he growls reading my thoughts causing me to freeze in my spot. "Do not ever think you can get away from me."

It took every ounce of my willpower not to reciprocate his kiss. Our lips moved in flawless synchrony. I trembled as I felt his tongue tracing my lower lip. My legs turned feeble, and I clutched his shirt for support. Suddenly, his hands released mine and firmly seized my waist, simultaneously drawing me closer. I could perceive the fervent heat emanating from his body. His heart throbbed rapidly beneath my hands. I withdrew my hand and exerted a forceful push to separate us. "Soaf... please," he implored, his azure eyes locked onto mine. "I... I have to go," I responded, taken aback by the unexpected situation. ************ Sophie Esinberg embodied the typical nerd, often seen with glasses perched on her nose and her arms clutching books tightly as she made her way through the school hallway.
