His Heart's Desire

Alice

After that huge cry fest, we all had in the bathroom. Tracy, Gen, and I both agreed to never talk about this. Not at least until Tracy was ready. Then we went on our separate ways. Gen to science, Tracy to art and me off to find Nick. I was done with all my classes already. And I knew Nick was too. Because he was always in his favorite spot this hour... the library.

Upon entering the library, my eyes start their search for Nick. He's never where people can see him he's always in his usual spot in the back. On that stool reading.

Giving my surroundings a once over I make my way down the darkened halls where he would be.

I round the corner and sure enough. He's there.

"Nick," I announce and his eyes snap to mine. He's quick to put a bookmark in whatever he's reading and shoving it back in his bag.

"What are you reading?" I whisper.

"Doesn't matter." He says ending the conversation so we sit in an awkward silence.

I look down before speaking but Nick has other plans and he speaks the same time I do.

"Look, I'm-"

We stare at one another before he motions to me. "You first." Nodding, I take a step closer to him and he stands up quickly.

"I'm sorry. I mean, I'm always sorry- but I feel like I don't understand what you're going through and just making assumptions about you and your probably super nice family." I say and it's quiet for a second.

"You know what. Never mind. I don't know why I came here." I say quickly holding on tightly to the straps of my bag.

I turn around but Nick grabs my wrist and pulls me to him. I gasp as my small frame connects with his hard body.

"Don't talk about me. Don't talk about my family. I don't want to hear any of that leave your lips." Nick whispers in my ear and my lips part at the sensation of his hot breath on my skin.

I pull away from him slightly and swallow hard. I bite my lip nervously unable to move my body.

"Don't do that either." He says huskily and his rough hand cups my cheek. His thumb rubs over my bottom lip and I stare into his blue eyes that are more than focused on my mouth.

He pulls my lip out from the trap my teeth are holding them in.

He leans in.

"Nick..." I practically whimper.

I can feel his breathing getting heavier. "I want you." He says and I need to pinch myself. I'm totally dreaming. Nick isn't like this.

His large arm goes around my waist and pulls me closer. If he's going to kiss me he needs to do it now. I want him too.

When he smirks against my lips I get frustrated. I fist the top of his shirt and pull him down so our lips clash.

The feeling of his mouth on mine was sensational. Sending shocks throughout my entire body.

I'm quick to softly moan from the pleasurable contact and that sound seems to undo him.
