Well, no – he can’t keep a lady waiting. But oh, how his heart hammers in his chest. Kissing is most certainly not his forte. It’s something he’s never done. But Ann is right. He doesn’t like keeping her waiting. She’s worth so much more, a person that’s willing to give her all her desires and everything beyond. Ah – he’s thinking too much. Stalling, even. Hesitantly, his hand rises, slender fingers coming just underneath her chin. They’re shaking – he’s trying his best to ignore it. “No, I’ll not keep you waiting any longer.” He does his best to stay true to his word, just lightly tilting her head up as he leans into her frame. Lips are barely a breath apart where he halts with nerves, but he finds the closer he’s gotten, the more enticed he is. ( She smells like strawberries and that only adds to draw him in. ) Making that final move, his eyes shut as his lips softly capture hers. Oh, how long does he stay here? Does he move? Does she move? He’s pretty sure his heartbeat is stopped now.
OH, SO HE WAS JUST AS NERVOUS AS HER, that was more reassuring in all honesty. As his fingers grasped her chin she could feel them shaking. Slowly she rested her hand onto his shoulder, drawing nearer. She gulped as her gaze locked onto his. Time seemed to stand still for the two of them as he got closer. God her heart was REALLY going crazy. It seemed like her cheeks refused to return to their normal. If anything the heat from her cheeks had spread to behind her ears as her stomach started doing somersaults. There was this warmth to Yusuke despite his element being ice, the closer she got the more she felt at home. There were few people she would dare let get this close to her, Yusuke was on that very short list. He had her trust because she knew he wouldn’t do anything that she wouldn’t approve of. That was just the kind of guy he was. Such a kind, genuine, and intense person.
The fact that they were fire and ice was a little cliche but it had her chucking to herself as she got lost in her thoughts. That was when it happened. Their lips sealed in a kiss Ann’s eyes slowly fell shut, leaning into him, hand sliding gently to the back of his neck. What a rush! Had she ever seen herself in this moment with him? No. Then again Ann always had a rough time confessing, she couldn’t lie that she had her eye on Yusuke for a while now, but this just felt like a dream come true to her.
