10. Heart Flutters

*JUSTINE POV
I feel like I’ve been in a dream state since I left our non-date date. It took me over two hours to get back to the hotel because one, I’ve missed so many turns and exits, and two…. I don’t even know what two is!! I could barely register getting out of my car, walking through the lobby, and going up the elevator. By the time I enter our room, my heart was still beating erratically… all from a friggin’ kiss??

**FLASHBACK**

He pulls away his lips quicker than I want him too. His warm hands are still on my neck, and I love the feel of them there. My eyes are still bugged out because I wasn’t expecting it, and I can barely gain the breath I need.
“s**t, I’m sorry Justine, I didn’t me—"
“Oh screw that!” Yea, screw that idea entirely. I yank his face where it belongs as my lips crash right onto his yet again, except this time, I’m not even giving him the opportunity to back off… especially with my fist wrapped in his soft hair. His hands go from my neck to wrapping around my body, bringing us flush against each other. Right as I lean my head to the left, he leans right, both of our mouths opening slightly as our tongues come out to play. And holy hell, I feel fireworks going off my entire body! I don’t think I’ve ever felt a kiss like this before.
When we both pull back for air and look at each other, I know I’m wearing the same face he is: hooded eyes, swollen red tinted lips, flushed face…. And damn it’s a good look on him. “Aidan, I—” The bastard cuts me off again, this time pushing me towards my car. I sigh out a moan as he lets out a grunt and I ride my right leg up and around his waist as he pulls my lower half to his. HOLY. CRAP. I know I whimper just the feel of his hardening d**k. Like I said… it’s been a long while.
“Yea… give it to her man!!”
“Make him moan babygirl!!” We break up to the sounds of teenagers hooting at us. Aidan turns and sends them a glare as they snicker and run off. When he turns to face me yet again, both of our bodies are rising and falling to gather breaths. Slowly…. Ever so slowly, we detangle our limbs from each other.

**END OF FLASHBACK**

“Earth to Justine… Come in Justine!!!”
I rapidly blink my eyes as the present comes back into focus. Kelsey has a s**t eating grin on her face, and I realize I’m still standing at the door to the room.
“Oh. My. God!!! You totally had s*x with him, didn’t you!!! I knew once you told me y’all were going out, you were going bone him!! I’m so proud of you girl!”
I walk my way over to my bed and shlump down. “We didn’t have sex.” But by god if I didn’t want to.
Kelsey crawls over in my field of vision. “You didn’t?? Did you at least kiss?”
I bust out a huge smile and she squeals loudly. I’m sure we’ll get a noise complaint later on. “Tell me everything!!!! Not one detail left out!”
So I tell her. I talked about our dinner date, playing the question game, him holding my waist while walking through the town. The movie at the park. How he gave me his body warmth when I was cold. And then the amazing kiss.
“And y’all just left it at that?”
I nod my head. “And we left it at that. He has to work in the morning. I gave him another peck and we hugged each other, and then got into our perspective vehicles and here I am.” I looked over to my friend and she’s still smiling. She’s happy that I got some action, no matter how little it was. “I’m sure you got more than a kiss, huh?”
Her face lights up, nodding enthusiastically. “He’s a dream in the sack Just… I swear the man has me speaking in tongues when he’s inside of me.” I totally fake gag. “But be proud! We actually talked like you guys too!”
“…soo just hanging out huh?” I laugh as she sticks out her tongue and heads for the shower, swatting my butt in the process. I change into my PJs and get comfy in my bed. Checking my phone right as I sink into the comforter brings a smile to my face.
Aidan: Thanks for the non-date Justine. I didn’t get to tell you earlier, but you’re beautiful. Have a good night.
My heart literally flutters from my chest into the sky, or ceiling… whatever. Has a guy ever just said, ‘you’re beautiful’, without s*x?? Damn, he’s good. And I’m just in my bed, smiling like a dork, trying to figure out what to say back. It literally takes me over 10 minutes to stop acting like a preteen to send a message.
Justine: Thank you Aidan, really. I had fun on our non-date as well, esp the ending Get some sleep handsome. Xoxo
He’s probably already passed out by now. It did take me longer to get back, and I’m sure I kept him up well past his bedtime, so I don’t expect a response. Thinking about this evening… hell, the whole trip with him in it, I wish it could be something more. He’s a great guy and we have so much in common. I guess I should embrace the now and not focus on what could be. I snuggle more into my pillow, thoughts of dinner, movie at the park, and that amazing kiss.
Aidan… you will officially become my dream man for the evening
