Her heart was thumping when Mik rounded the room. It wasn’t just the way he was looking at her, but the way he talked was convincing enough that she almost believed it. He likes you. You like him. It’s good. You’re good. Just go with it, Rune.
He sat down and when she looked into his eyes, it was while trying to see straight through the back of his head and glimpse the wall beyond. She shifted a little, not away exactly, but to get a little more comfortable. Yet she could shift across the continent and still be unsure of herself. You’re being stupid. You’re no kid. Act cool. So she forced herself to really look him in the eye.
Her eyes widened with brief alarm by the touch on her leg, and she barely had a moment to swallow before the softness of lips brushed hers. She found herself pressing her lips back upon his and parted them just barely to feel the wetness of his tongue beyond. Every inch of her skin prickled tight. It’s cool. He likes you. She laid her hand on his and pulled it upward along her thigh until, well, there was no more leg to go.
And when their hands found what they found, Rune pulled away to look for the inevitable reaction. It was a sort of comical wince that settled on her face, anticipating what was surely going to be inevitable rejection.
