A Simple Rule

Our faces are only inches apart now and I can feel his breath on my cheek. My eyes are closed, too afraid to open them and look into his eyes. His hands are firmly placed on my hips sending a tingling sensation through my body. “Hannah,” he mumbles my name but my body is frozen, I don’t move. “Look at me.” His tone of voice makes it clear that it’s a statement. But I’m too scared to look into his mesmerising eyes.
