“What my father doesn’t know can’t hurt him.”

She nods. “Ok, well, you had better make this happen tonight then, hey?”

“I’m trying.” I snap in frustration.

No matter how much I flirt with the guy, he just isn’t flirting back.

To make it weirder - he keeps checking me out. I can see he enjoys looking at me, and when we dance together, I notice how tense he gets.

I’m going to make a move.

He thinks I’m pretty and he can’t hide it, so I’ll make a move.

He’s probably just nervous about my father. That’s probably all that’s stopping him.

When all of us head over to the dance floor again, Mas is looking more relaxed. Frankie has made sure he’s had enough shots of tequila to relax his shoulders and put a bit of a smile on his face.

I step close to him again, but this time my stomach is fluttering with a hundred butterflies. I am so nervous I can barely see straight.

I can’t believe I’m going to do this.

If I kiss him - and he kisses me back - I will be the happiest girl in the entire world.

He wouldn’t kiss me if he didn’t have a crush on me, too.

Wrapping my arms around his neck and pressing my breasts against his solid chest, I stare up at him.

“You are relentless.” He says, his deep voice vibrating against me.

His eyes are locked with mine, and I can feel the tension between us growing.

I trace my fingers over his jaw line, and he doesn’t stop me. In fact, he’s still looking down at me.

My eyes fall to his lips.

I feel my own lips parting.

My heart is beating faster and faster by the second.

I’m going to do it.

I’m going to kiss him.

But before I have a chance to make my move,he leans down to kiss me.

I can’t believe it.

I’m so shocked that for a second, I forget to kiss him back.

But as his lips move against mine, the rest of the world and all of my thoughts fall silent.

I’m in heaven.

His mouth is locked over mine as he pushes his tongue between my lips.

I wrap my hand around the back of his neck and press harder against him.

I feel my entire body become alive as I rock myself against him.
