CLONE • E.D

11

I pull back from the kiss - that has lasted for minutes now- to get some oxygen back in my lungs.

I pant softly as I rest my forehead against Ethan's, my eyes still shut as I bite my bottom lip and let out a soft chuckle.

I've never wanted anyone this bad.

" Leslie " he speaks and I immediately feel the butterflies in my stomach.

I loved it when he said my name.

" is it bad if I said that I wanted to kiss you again? " Ethan whispers, his lips brushing over mine as he speaks. I wanted to put my lips back on his, but I was still out of breath.

" I don't think so " I chuckle before I peck him on the lips and rest my hands gently against his soft cheek before I pull back and stare him in the eye.

I wanted him in so many ways. He was driving me crazy ever since I met him. But after this kiss, my feelings have crossed the line.

" you're so beautiful " he whispers before he caresses my cheek and tilts his head to the side, watching my hand go over his on my cheek, not taking my eyes off his.

I hated this, but I loved it. It was dangerous. If anyone found out about this, nothing else but bad would happen to the both of us, but right now, that bullshit didn't matter to me. I was focused on him. And only him.

If I could sit on his lap and run my hands through his hair for the rest of my life, I would do it.

We didn't speak for over fifteen minutes. Instead, we stared into each others eyes, knowing that words wouldn't do us any good in trying to explain how bad we've both wanted this.

" you know, " Ethan starts as he pushes a strand of my curly, black hair behind my ear and smiles at me. I shrug at him.

" kissing you is just one of the many things I want to do to you " he says ever so softly but his raspy voice made the words sound even better coming out of his mouth.

If I wasn't this whipped, I'd probably make some joke about it, but now, all I wanted was to see what he wanted to do to me. I wanted him so bad I hated it.

" huh " I nod at him as I let out a chuckle and fix my posture on his lap, running my hands through his brown hair.

The fact that he was a clone was still floating around in my head. If he didn't get to live life for a while, he wouldn't have known any of this. But fortunately, he lived one before.

He told me about the high school he attended, his ex, and everything that he has ever experienced during his time out there.

So I knew where he got all that from.

" I wish you could see yourself the way I see you. " he whispers and I don't try to hide my face. Instead, I stare back at him and smile widely.

I loved every second of this, I wanted this more than anything.

" What a gentleman " I joke and let out a giggle.

" only for you, baby girl " if words could kill, I would've been dead by now. The way baby girl rolled off his tongue was like my music to my ears. I didn't like being called baby girl, I hated it, but he made me love it.

He made me love so many things that I wasn't planning on loving.

" how are you even real? " I whispered, mostly to myself, as I caressed his cheeks and gulped. I wanted to kiss him again.

I seriously hate how I was feeling, always wanting to throw myself at him, but it was him who made me feel that way.

" If I could stay like that for years, I would " the words suddenly came out of my mouth, but I didn't mind it, it was what I was thinking anyway.

" princess, " he starts as he leans in, slipping his fingers gently under my chin, pulling me closer to him until out noses are touching.

" I want you all to myself, in every way. " He whispers before the familiar feeling of his lips on mine comes back. I wanted that feeling to be there for the rest of my life.

God, I'm whipped.
