"We... Shouldn't" she said reeling as they broke apart. "I mean... You're Daniel's friend, still in college... Do you even know how old I am?" she usually looked younger and knew if he knew her age he wouldnt be kissing her and much less in such a manner. It had been more than te years since she had been in any real relationship back to when she was in college herself.
The kiss was incredible. It was everything he wanted it to be, he had always thought she was beautiful, but he never imagined this would ever happen. He felt like he could pause and curl up in this moment forever, enjoying it, relishing the beautiful nature of it, then, suddenly, she pulled back, breaking their embrace.
“Why shouldn’t we Rhona? I don’t think I have to know whether you’re 31 or 32 to kiss you.” He shrugged, both of them sitting on the couch looking at each other. He could tell she was conflicted. She seemed so vulnerable in this moment, he’d never seen her like this, and all he wanted to do was make sure she was okay. He gave her a tight hug, whispering in her ear “we won’t do anything you don’t want to…” breaking the hug, and staying so close that their foreheads touched, whispered again, “do you not want to?” They locked eyes as he finished that last sentence
