"Why do you stay with him?" he asks as he corners me between the desk and his arms.

I looked down so I didn't have to see his face. He knows what goes on between me and my boyfriend and now he won't let me go. 

"B-be-because I-I'm a-afr-afraid." I stutter still looking down at my feet. 

He puts his finger under my chin and makes me look up at his beautiful bluish gray eyes. He's so beautiful from his chiseled features, to his beautifully tousled hair. His perfection makes me realize how imperfect I am. 

"Then why don't you leave him?" he asks as he searches my eyes for something unknown. I look into his eyes as they draw me closer and closer to him. To my surprise he is also moving closer to me. 

"How? I have no one." I whisper as our lips are barely touching and I can practically taste his minty breath. 

"Leave him and come to me." he says as he finally crashes his lips to mines taking me into a whole new world. I find myself responding and winding my arms around his neck pulling him closer to me.
