"Can you keep a secret?"
He whispered quietly, mischief flashing in his eyes.
Abby leaned in closer, smiling almost evilly. She rested her arms on the old oak table in between them. Stars glittered overhead and the moon was the perfect spotlight highlighting her sharp features.
She had always wanted this; to be here with him and to listen to his secrets. It had been her dream for as long as she could remember. His face had been in her every dream, her every vision, her every thought; and now she was living it.
"Better than you know." She whispered back, her weighted words slipping through her lips like silk.
He smiled, his perfectly straight white teeth flashing brilliantly against his tan skin. He lean even closer, closing the distance between them until his mouth was at her ear.
"You'll have to do better than that."

One of his hands glided up my thigh, stopping to rest on my hip. His breathing grew heavier, matching mine. "You always have a sweet scent when I'm near you," he murmured against my skin. "Like vanilla and cinnamon." His teeth grazed a sensitive spot on my neck, and I hummed involuntarily. My legs pressed together, trying to stifle the ache building between them. He was making me feel things I hadn't felt before-things I wasn't sure I could control. "I should-" I started, my voice faltering as I tried to regain control. "I should get you something to sober up." I quickly slipped off the table, putting space between us, but he was faster. His hand caught my wrist, and before I knew it, he had me pinned against the wall. "So?" His voice was low, almost a growl. "Must I always stay sober? I don't want anything... just you."Complete
Crimson Desires
"You think you've got me all figured out, don't you?" I say, my tone sharp as I glare up at him. Archer's lips curve into a faint smirk. "I don't need to figure you out. I already know your type." "Oh, do you?" I step closer, challenging him. "Enlighten me." His eyes darken as he leans down, his voice husky. "Reckless. Self-destructive. You'd run into flames just to prove you don't burn." "And you're the hero who thinks he can save me?" I shoot back, fists clenching. "No," he says evenly, his gaze boring into mine.

He strides closer, his eyes focused intently on me. I stumble backwards, feeling the cold wall press against my back. He stops inches away from me, forcing me to stare at his dark brooding eyes. I was enthralled by them, luring me in. "What are you doing?" My throat went dry as I spoke, his figure closing in. His scent made it even harder to think straight, a mix of fresh pine and smoky wood was all I could breath in. He doesn't answer and leans in closer to me, I could've gotten lost in his eyes, he tilted his head as the light shadowed the side of his face. "You amuse me, Abby" He whispered. His lips grazing my cheek. I stood there, stunned by our proximity. He pulled back slowly, staring, unflinching.

Reluctantly I entered the cafeteria. I didn't have any reason to go other than my sudden need to be there, so I just stood by the door. I stood there for about 5 minutes before I realized how stupid I was being. As I turned and walked toward the door I bumped into a guy. "Oh sor-" He started to say before he looked into my eyes and I swear I saw his eyes get a darker shade of his original brown "No it's ok, it was my bad." I said before he scoffed and walked past me. Usually I wouldn't have given a shit but to be honest when he did that I got a pain in my chest that caused me to jerk forward."Complete
