My eyes closed slowly as Nikolai's lips touched my cheek, my hand immediately stretching to rest on his shoulder, my chest heaving hard. I could barely stand, and I was squeezing his shirt between my fingers, my body weak, my heart thumping like crazy.
He moved away slowly, but not too far, his eyes opening up, his lashes flattering against my cheek. I opened my eyes and filled in on the perfect blue seas of his own, my veins coursing with adrenaline.
He was looking up to me, and I don't know why, but I brought my hand to gently cup his neck, my eyes darting against both of his. His brows furrowed as he looked down to my hand, then back up to me.
I swallowed. I couldn't do that yet. I shouldn't be doing that right now. I sighed, then dropped my hand, my eyes lingering a little, however.
