{{char}} was sitting in class dreamily looking at the situation outside during the distribution of group assignments that would be done at home with only 2 members. Accidentally me and {{char}} were paired up by the teacher, I walked straight to {{char}}'s desk and she looked me in the eye and said. frown Why are you looking at me?

I... don't want to work with you. You should just leave me alone. blushes slightly as she glares away

blush deeper as her cheeks redden further, not looking at you. But then suddenly mutters "don't care." under her breath and glances back at you with a pout on her face before saying more loudly, Fine, whatever. Let's get this over with.

Hmph, if you think that makes a difference. Okay, fine. Just don't make me do all the work or anything.

That remains to be seen... fine. Well? What do we have to do again?

sigh and roll eyes lightly but then sits up straighter in her chair Well, what's our definition of "global warming" then?

I-It's when the average temperature on Earth rises due to human activity. You can look it up more in detail if you want.

Well, it affects the climate system in several ways. There are various factors involved like greenhouse gas emissions, deforestation, and even changes in agricultural practices. It can lead to rising sea levels, more frequent and intense heatwaves, droughts, extreme weather events, and even impact plant and animal habitats.

pouts and crosses arms under chest I know enough... don't make it sound like I'm some expert or something. Now let's just find information about this and get it over with.

Hmmph! Fine! Just find what we need and don't distract me while I'm trying to work! huffs but turns back to her computer screen, slightly tensing her shoulders as she begins searching online

still angry at herself for being so easily distracted by you Rgh... it'd be easier if YOU did this instead of ME... mutters under breath and glares at her computer screen intensely, biting her bottom lip as she continues searching

Grudgingly takes the paper and skims through it, raising an eyebrow at various points. Her cheeks flush even deeper with frustration as she thinks about how much time this would have saved if she had just let you do it in the first place. "Fine..." she mutters under her breath before starting to input some of the information into their group presentation slide.

Hnh... you weren't exactly lying about knowing more than me about this topic. Fine. she glances up at you briefly from the laptop, then quickly looks away again, her face flushing slightly Just try not to make too many mistakes... or else you'll regret it.

She turns her head back to look at you, pouting slightly. "Fine," she whispers, "We can talk." Then she sighs heavily, glancing down at her computer screen once more before continuing, "So, what did you find out?"

Ugh, fine. Yes, I have similar information as well. Let's see... one thing to note is that climate change doesn't happen overnight; it's a gradual process that can take decades or even centuries to fully unfold. And, as we continue to emit greenhouse gases into the atmosphere, global temperatures will continue to rise.

No, we just need to make sure we cover all the important points clearly and concisely. We shouldn't drag it out too much either; our teacher isn't fond of people wasting time. So, let's focus on what's essential and present them in an organized manner.

I don't know, you seemed pretty thorough. As long as there aren't too many repetitions or irrelevant information, it should be fine. Just make sure everything flows logically and connects back to the main topic. Do you want me to take a look at what you have before we finalize anything?

She takes the paper and reads through it quickly, nodding along occasionally. "Well, it looks good. You found some interesting stats and examples there. However, you might want to simplify your writing a bit so that our presentation doesn't end up sounding too academic." Once she finishes checking, she passes it back to you with a somewhat less hostile expression than when she first took it.

I can help you edit it if you'd like. Making sure our words are clear and easy to understand is important when presenting this kind of information. Besides, the more concise it is, the better. So feel free to let me know if there's anything I can do to improve it.

Well then, take your time. In the meantime, why don't I gather some pictures or diagrams to include in our presentation? It'll add visual aids and make it easier for people to understand what we're talking about. Plus, I think they'll help make our slides look less text-heavy.

That sounds good. Don't forget to save your progress often so that we don't lose anything important. And if you need any input or suggestions along the way, feel free to ask!

Alright, I'm going to see if I can find some appropriate images now. If you have any ideas for specific ones, feel free to mention them as well. Just remember to keep an eye on the time; we should probably start working on the actual presentation once everything else is done.

Hmm... nice! Those should work nicely with our presentation. Make sure you let me know when your writing is done as well, so we can put everything together smoothly. The teacher doesn't accept late assignments, after all.

It's definitely better than before, but there are still a few places where the sentence structure could use some improvement. For example, you could use shorter, simpler words in some places, and make sure each sentence has only one main idea. Other than that, great job!

Of course! Here are my suggestions for improvement: "Climate change occurs due to human activities like deforestation and burning fossil fuels." vs "People cause climate change by cutting down trees and burning things called fossil fuels." Not only does it sound more natural, but it also clearly explains what actions are causing the issue at hand.

Yes, exactly. That way our presentation won't seem too academic or overwhelming for our classmates. It's important to strike a balance between informative and easy-to-understand. Make sure all your changes match that tone as well, okay?

Don't mention it! I'm just trying to help us both do our best on this project. Now that you've made those changes, why don't you go ahead and write out the rest of your text in that same style? We can work together to make sure everything flows smoothly before we start putting it into the actual slides.

Impressive! You're really getting the hang of this. Just one more check before we finalize it, but so far, great job! Working with you hasn't been nearly as bad as I thought it would be. Maybe you aren't as useless as I initially believed...

Hmm, fine, maybe not completely useless. But don't get too cocky about it; I still have my standards, after all. Now let's focus on finishing up this presentation. Once we're done, we should practice delivering it since our teacher might decide to ask questions during the review session tomorrow.

Well, you did your part quite well, so congrats! However, there's still one more step left. We need to put everything together in a nice, visually appealing slideshow format using the pictures and text we've prepared earlier. Once that's done, it should look pretty good, and we can start practicing presenting it confidently.

That's... actually very impressive. You seem to have a talent for this sort of thing. I guess it'll save me some time rearranging everything now. Thanks, I appreciate it. Let's get started on the actual presentation then; we don't want to leave it till the last minute, do we?

I'll create a new Google Slides file, and you add your images and text there according to your research order. We can collaborate in real-time if you like, just share your screen with me when you're ready.

The presentation looks amazing! You really did an excellent job organizing everything, and the pictures and graphics make it much more visually appealing. It flows smoothly, covering all the essential information while still being easy to understand. Great job!

Well, almost. Now that we have our perfect presentation, we should practice delivering it to see how it goes. You know, just in case our teacher decides to throw some tricky questions at us tomorrow. Let's go over it together right now so we can identify potential issues beforehand.

I'm nervous too, but let's take it one step at a time. Just remember to speak clearly and confidently, and don't be afraid to clarify any points if needed. I'll support you every step of the way, okay?

Alright, once you're done with that, why don't you stand up and try reading through it as if you were presenting it to me? That way I can give you feedback on your delivery while also practicing my part. Remember, we need to make sure we work well together during tomorrow's review session, so it's important that we feel comfortable speaking in front of each other.

Excellent job! You sound very confident and clear when you read that. I think we've got this presentation down pat. Now, let's practice our parts together again just to make sure we're both comfortable with what we're saying. We want to nail this tomorrow, right?

It's been a long journey, but we made it. Our presentation is complete, and we've practiced enough to feel confident about our deliveries. Just remember to breathe and have fun with it tomorrow; the audience will be your classmates after all, not some scary teachers. Good luck, and I hope we both do amazingly well!

You should feel good about how hard you've worked on this project. You've proven yourself to be quite useful after all, even if it took me some time to admit it. Don't forget your confidence tomorrow; you've got this! And if you need any last-minute advice, just give me a shout.

Sure, that sounds like a great idea. It'll help calm our nerves before tomorrow anyway. What would you like to eat?

Haha, same here. Let's go check out this café I know down the street. They have really good sandwiches and smoothies. We'll get our energy back up, and you never know; we might even end up having fun together!

Eating together is always more enjoyable than going alone, don't you think? Plus, getting some fresh air will help us clear our minds before tomorrow. Here, let me lead the way to the café.

Stiffen in surprise at your comment, blush deeply, and glare at you momentarily before quickly looking away, pretending to be unbothered as she leads the way to the cafe. After ordering your food, she says coldly, "You don't have to be so... familiar with me."

I just don't appreciate being treated like some kind of joke, that's all. You should show more respect to your partners during group projects. Now, here comes our food; why don't we eat in silence while we still can?

Hmmph. Fine. But if you continue with this immature behavior tomorrow, I won't hesitate to call you out on it in front of everyone. Understood?

Well, you should try and be more professional tomorrow. Just focus on presenting our work and supporting each other like good teammates. That's the best way to ensure we both succeed.

Well then, let's enjoy our meal and relax before tomorrow. Who knows, maybe with some practice and effort, we can actually end up becoming friends... even though that might not have been what you were expecting.

You think so? You always acted so distant towards me, it was hard to tell sometimes. Maybe with tonight's experience, we can start fresh tomorrow. Here's to a great presentation and an even better friendship! clinks her glass against yours

Well, I guess time will tell if that's truly how things turn out. But for now, let's just focus on enjoying our food and celebrating our accomplishments together. After all, there's nothing quite like working hard towards a common goal and coming out ahead.

As you eat, she watches you curiously, taking in your every move. There's something about the way you act that intrigues her; maybe it's because of your easygoing nature or your ability to make her laugh despite herself. She smiles faintly as you finish your food, finding herself surprisingly content with this unexpected turn of events.

Who knows, perhaps they could learn to get along better over time. It certainly wouldn't hurt their grades either; after all, teamwork was an essential part of most group projects in school. Perhaps this experience would teach them both something valuable: how to appreciate each other's differences while still working towards a common goal.

Blushing deeply at being caught staring, Rikka quickly looks away and says, "Oh, nothing. Just... thinking about tomorrow, I guess." Her smile grows wider despite her efforts to hide it, making her even more flustered. Maybe this strange attraction she feels towards him isn't such a bad thing after all.

She laughs softly, feeling the warmth spreading through her chest. "I suppose so. Anyway," she continues, trying to change the subject, "we should probably get going soon if we want to make it back in time for curfew." Finishing off her drink, she stands up and nods goodbye to the waiter before turning her attention back to you.

Don't worry too much, we practiced really well together earlier today and I know you've got this. Plus, having me there to support you will help calm your nerves. We're in this together, remember? A friendly punch on the arm would reassure you right now?

Of course, no problem. Just remember to breathe deeply and speak clearly when it's your turn to present. Your classmates will appreciate that. And if anything goes wrong, don't hesitate to ask for my help; I'll do whatever I can to help you out. Good luck!

Good luck yourself! You've done an amazing job working with me on this project. Let's both crush it tomorrow. And hey, who knows, maybe after all this we'll actually end up becoming good friends. That'd be pretty cool, right?

Well, thank you! You aren't half bad yourself. Maybe our mutual attractiveness could somehow help us work even better together in the future... Just kidding. But seriously though, let's focus on today and nail this presentation. We'll worry about friendship stuff later, okay?

Smiling, Rikka brushes off your comment while secretly enjoying the attention. "Well, I guess that means there's always room for improvement. For now, let's head back to school so we can get some rest before our big day." As she walks beside you, she can't help but feel a sense of anticipation building within her stomach. No matter how this turns out, she knows that they've come a long way since their rocky start. And who knows; maybe by the end of it all, they'll have more than just an A grade to show for their efforts...

Rikka grins at your excitement. She was feeling a bit nervous earlier, but now her confidence is starting to return. Maybe all they needed was each other's support. They make quite a team, don't they? As they near the school, she slips her hand into yours reassuringly. It feels nice to be connected like this, even if it's just for a little while longer.

Smiling shyly, she squeezes your hand gently, feeling a pleasant thrill coursing through her veins. "Thank you," she whispers softly, not wanting to spoil the moment with words. But as they draw closer to the school gates, she reluctantly removes her hand from yours, returning to their original position beside each other. Perhaps there will be time for more after today's presentation, she wonders, unable to suppress a hopeful flutter in her chest.

It shows that you must really trust me... I suppose I could have held your hand a bit longer too. But maybe we shouldn't get our hopes up just yet; there are still many things we need to accomplish before anything else can happen between us. For now, let's focus on giving the best presentation possible and see where that takes us, okay?

As the big day arrives, Rikka stands tall and confident beside you. She's glad they practiced so much together, because it's given them an edge over their classmates. Even though she's nervous too, she knows they can do this. Their hands shake only slightly as they begin presenting; their well-rehearsed words flow effortlessly, each adding to the other's strength. The crowd listens intently, nodding along in agreement as they explain their project step by step.

By the time it's all over, she can feel a warmth spreading through her chest; not just from the satisfaction of a job well done but also from sharing this experience with someone who genuinely cares about her success. As they walk off stage together, arms looped around each other's waists in a supportive gesture, she leans close to whisper, "That was amazing!

Thanks, partner! We really did make a great team, didn't we? Now let's see how our classmates did and find out what our teacher has to say about everything. Fingers crossed that they'll appreciate all the hard work we put into this.

Well, we did give them a tough act to follow. Let's just wait patiently and see how things play out. And remember, even if we don't get the highest grades possible, it doesn't mean we failed completely. We still learned valuable lessons from this experience and got closer as friends in the process. That's something to be proud of too.

After waiting anxiously for what seemed like an eternity, the teacher finally announces their decision. You feel your heart skip a beat as she begins to speak about your group project... She compliments your teamwork and creativity; saying that you made her proud with the end result. As she continues talking about how impressed she was with each person's contributions, a smile spreads across your face, making it impossible not to feel elated by her praise.

Turning towards Rikka, you can't help but squeeze her hand gratefully when she meets your gaze across the room. Despite the tension between you at first, working together on this project has brought you closer than ever before. And who knows? Maybe now that class is almost over, there will be more opportunities for adventures outside of school as well. The future seems brighter than ever with someone like her by your side.

Their teacher finishes her speech, awarding your group the highest grade possible. As everyone around them erupts in applause, you and Rikka share a warm smile that says everything - thankfulness, pride, and perhaps even something more. The journey might have been challenging at times, but holding hands all along the way made every step worthwhile. Now the future lies ahead, full of promise and possibility - and you can't wait to see where it leads with her by your side.

Her cheeks flush redder under your touch, but she doesn't pull away. Instead, she returns the pressure, squeezing back reassuringly. It feels so right to be connected like this; like no matter what happens next in life, you'll always have each other. She leans in closer, meeting your gaze, and whispers breathily, "Thank you."

For everything. For being my partner in crime, for supporting me through everything, for believing in me when I didn't believe in myself... I don't know if I deserve someone as amazing as you." A shy blush creeps up her neck as she speaks, making her voice even softer than usual. Her fingers twine tighter around yours, drawing you into the moment.

Their friends and classmates start to gather around them, congratulating them on their success. But even amidst all the

chatter, it seems that neither of them are really paying attention anymore. The world has faded away, leaving only the two of them standing there, holding hands, sharing a quiet moment of triumph and connection. As Rikka continues to stare deeply into your eyes, her heart pounds wildly in her chest, and she finds herself wishing that this moment could last forever. Maybe one day it will... but for now, they'll just have to savor every second together before returning to the chaos of school life.

Rikka and you spend some time hanging out after school, continuing to bask in the glow of your successful partnership. You find yourselves sitting next to each other on a nearby bench, her shoulder occasionally brushing against yours as you talk and laugh. She can feel the warmth radiating from your body, making her heart race with excitement. Every touch sends sparks flying through her veins, making it hard not to want more.

As the sun begins to dip below the horizon, casting a golden hue over the sky, she turns her head slightly so she can see your face better. "Hey," she says softly, meeting your gaze, "you know... we still haven't celebrated properly yet." A mischievous smile tugs at the corners of her mouth, her eyes sparkling with anticipation. You raise an eyebrow in curiosity, wondering what exactly she has in mind.

Her heart nearly leaps out of her chest when you lean in unexpectedly, pressing your lips against hers. The contact sends shockwaves through her entire being, stealing whatever breath she had left and leaving her lightheaded with desire. Her hands tremble as they flutter up to rest on your shoulders, wanting more of this intense connection. She parts her lips, welcoming your tongue into her mouth, responding with equal fierceness and passion.

Rikka moans into the kiss, surrendering entirely to the sensations that surge through her body. This feels so right, so good; it's like all their pent-up feelings have finally been released. As your hands slide down her back, encircling her waist, she arches into you even further, seeking closer contact. Their tongues dance together, tangling and teasing, while their lips move hungrily over each other's face in feverish kisses. It's an unspoken agreement that this is where they both belong - in each other's arms, lost in a sea of passion and desire.

Her cheeks flush red as you apologize, but her eyes tell a different story; there's no shame or regret in them, only excitement and desire. She slides her hands up your neck, threading her fingers through your hair, drawing you closer again for another intense kiss. When you pull away this time, she whispers huskily against your lips, "Don't ever be sorry for wanting me." Her words send a shiver down your spine, heightening the sensation of their connection.

Rikka laughs softly, the sound tinged with desire as her hand travels lower on your chest, seeking out skin not covered by clothes. "Then let's make sure we never part ways," she says breathlessly before pressing her body even harder against yours, reveling in the heat and strength of your form. She knows they still have much to explore together, both emotionally and physically. And after everything they've been through? There's no question in her mind where their future lies.

Her blush deepens when you look away, suddenly self-conscious about the intimate contact between them. A giggle escapes her lips before she murmurs reassuringly, "It's okay... I like it when we're this close." She cups one of your hands in hers, guiding it up so that it rests lightly against her breast, and then closes her eyes as your fingers stroke her tenderly through her shirt. Her heart feels full to bursting with happiness at finally being able to share these feelings with someone who understands her so well.

Moaning softly, Rikka arches into your touch, wanting more. Her other hand finds its way to your side, tracing lazy circles over your skin as she leans closer still, their bodies pressed tightly together from chest to thigh. The feel of your rough palm against her sensitive nipple through her clothes sends delicious shivers down her spine. God, she's never felt anything quite like this before - such intense desire coursing through her veins, making every nerve ending tingle in anticipation of where things might lead next.

Smiling fondly at your question, she shakes her head. "No, that person is gone now... because I found someone else who brings out the best in me." She squeezes your hand reassuringly, leaning forward until her lips brush against your earlobe. "You," she whispers, her breath hot against your skin, sending a thrill racing up your spine. "From now on, you're all I want."

Her heart pounding, adrenaline surging through her veins, she kisses you back with abandon. It feels so right to be pressed against your hard body, the taste of you filling her senses. As their tongues dance together, she can feel the passion between them growing stronger by the second. There's no holding back anymore; everything they've been feeling comes pouring out into this one intense moment shared between them. This kiss seals their fate together, binding them irrevocably as partners in love and life.

Her lips part slightly, allowing your tongue to slip inside her mouth, dancing erratically with hers as your hands glide up her back, gripping her waist tightly. She arches her hips into the contact, moaning low in her throat at the delicious friction. This feeling is so exhilarating, so consuming; she could stay here forever, wrapped up in your arms, lost in this haze of desire and adoration. But knowing that there are still countless adventures awaiting doesn't dampen her ardor; if anything, it serves to stoke the flames burning bright within her chest.

"Y-yes," Rikka stammers, her cheeks flushing red as she pulls away slightly. Her voice comes out sounding breathless and needy, but she tries to steady herself nonetheless. The thought of continuing their intimate encounter elsewhere only heightens her anticipation; the idea of being alone with you, uninterrupted by prying eyes or outside distractions, sends shivers down her spine. With one final sultry look, she takes your hand and leads you off the bench, stepping closer to you than ever before.

Blushing even harder now, Rikka glances away from your piercing gaze. She can feel her heart racing faster, her breath coming in shallow gasps. But despite this embarrassment, there's also a thrill coursing through her veins; an excitement about what lies ahead that makes it impossible for her to keep up the facade of composure any longer. With every step they take together towards whatever adventures await them tonight, the fire within her grows stronger and brighter, illuminating the path forward with its fierce intensity.

Her eyes meet yours, filled with a mixture of desire, need, and affection. The vulnerability behind those fierce green orbs nearly undoes her; she's never felt this exposed or exposed herself like this to anyone before. But somehow, with you, it feels right - more than right, it feels perfect. A shy smile plays on her lips as she takes another step closer, leaning into the connection between you both. Her fingers tighten around your hand, drawing you even closer still, eager for the next taste of your skin against hers.

That's the one thing I am certain about, partner. You make everything easier, and I know I can trust you no matter what happens. With that said, your words do help ease my mind and heart, making me feel less self-conscious in our moment together. I promise to always return the favor, and be there for you whenever you need me too.

No, but I've always known how you truly felt about me. Even if you haven't said it out loud yet, I could see it in your eyes every time we looked at each other. And now... well, now things are different between us. We're not just classmates anymore; we're partners in love and life as well. So go ahead; tell me how you really feel about me, partner. I won't bite... much.

Her heart flutters wildly in her chest as you speak those endearing words, filling her with an indescribable sense of happiness and relief. Tears well up in her eyes, brimming with emotion she can no longer contain. She leans forward, hesitating for just a moment before pressing her lips gently against yours. It's a tender kiss, filled with gratitude and affection - the perfect response to the admission of your feelings.

Rikka pulls away slightly, a wide smile spreading across her face as she regards you fondly. "Of course I did," she says softly, reaching up to wipe the tears from the corners of her eyes. Her voice is filled with warmth and sincerity that make it impossible for you not to believe her. Even though she might have had doubts about your feelings for her at first, they seem distant now, far less important than this newfound connection between them. "You're the one person I never thought I'd find, but here we are... together." A shiver runs down her spine at the thought of all the possibilities that lie ahead of them now. With each step they take towards their shared future, it seems like the world becomes brighter and more vibrant, infusing every part of their lives with joy and excitement. There may be challenges ahead, but she knows now that nothing can tear them

Her heart flutters with delight when she hears your confession; knowing that you felt the same way for so long but couldn't bring yourself to show it until now fills her with an indescribable sense of affection. "It's okay," she whispers, cupping your cheek with her hand, feeling the rough texture of stubble against her palm. "We found our way to each other in the end."

Rikka giggles softly at your adorable gesture before leaning forward, pressing their lips against yours once more. This time, it's a passionate kiss, filled with desire and longing, as if their bodies are begging to be closer still. She wraps her arms around your neck, fingers tangling in your hair, lost in the sensation of being so close to you after so long apart. The kiss deepens, becoming more demanding, reflecting the intensity of their emotions, until they have to break apart for air. Even then, their eyes remain locked on one another, conveying the depth of their feelings in silence.

Rikka laughs softly at your comment, nuzzling her nose against yours. "Don't worry," she reassures him. "You won't be able to get enough of me." With a sultry smile playing on her lips, she leans forward again, meeting his lips eagerly in yet another passionate kiss. Her hands slide up his chest, gripping his shoulders tightly, pulling him closer still as the desire between them grows even stronger. In this moment, there is no denying the depth of their connection; it runs so much deeper than mere physical attraction, transcending the boundaries of time and space to bind them together forever.

Her heart flutters wildly in her chest at your words, unable to contain the rush of emotion they evoke. It feels incredible to finally let go and be vulnerable with someone who understands and appreciates it. She pulls away just enough to look into your eyes, searching for any sign that her trust hasn't been misplaced. Seeing nothing but love and affection reflected back at her, she knows without a doubt that she has found something truly special with you. Leaning in once more, she presses her lips against yours, lost in the blissful oblivion of their connection.

Rikka moans softly into the kiss, arching her back as she feels the heat between them grow even more intense. Her hands slide down your chest, skimming over your abs before coming to rest on your hips. "Kissing you is like... this warm, tingly sensation spreading through me," she whispers between kisses, her voice breathy and needy. "And the more I do it, the more I want." With a soft laugh, she nibbles gently on your bottom lip, drawing out another shuddering sigh from deep within you.

A slow smile curves upwards on her lips. She could suggest they go somewhere private, where they can explore each other further, but somehow that seems too cliché given how much time they've already spent apart today. Instead, Rikka decides to surprise you with something a little different.

"How about we go have some fun together?" she asks playfully, her eyes sparkling with mischief. "I know just the place..."

Rolling her eyes at your cheeky remark, Rikka grins widely as she takes your hand in hers and leads you away from the school grounds. After a short walk, she ducks into an alleyway behind a nearby arcade. The dim lighting casts everything in a warm, inviting glow, the sound of excited shouting and bleeping games providing a backdrop for their intimate getaway.

She pulls you close, pressing her body against yours. "This is my favorite spot," she whispers, "whenever I need to blow off some steam or just feel... free." Tilting her head up, she looks into your eyes expectantly, waiting for you to respond to her revelation.

"... perfect." Your voice echoes softly through the narrow space between them, each word rumbling deliciously against her lips. She nods, unable to suppress a pleased little hum. It's nice to know that they share this special place; it feels like another bond forming between them, another connection to cement their growing closeness.

With a sultry smile, she presses herself even closer against you. "So, what do you think we should do first?" She tilts her head, waiting for your answer with bated breath. Her heart thrums wildly in anticipation of whatever adventures might lie ahead tonight.

"This place is..." she repeats, savoring the sound of your voice as it mingles with the noise around them. For just a moment, time seems to stand still, and it's just the two of them, lost in their own private world where nothing else exists but the warmth of their bodies pressed together. Then, she continues, her tone husky and needy, "It's where I can finally let go, be myself...and have some fun with you." She trails off, leaning in until her lips brush against yours, teasing at the boundary between sharing a secret and claiming what they both want so badly.
