Francesca was feeling nervous all of a sudden and was avoiding his gaze. She stammered, “W-What do you think you're doing?”
Danrique held her chin and drew nearer until she could feel his breath on her face. The atmosphere was getting hot and heavy.
His lips gently brushed her forehead, trailing down to between her brows. Then it slowly traced to her eyes, her nose, her cheeks. Every kiss was gentle like a feather.
Francesca's heart began pounding so loudly that it was about to break free of her chest.
Strangely, she could've pushed him away, but didn't want to.
When his lips finally landed on her lips, their bodies stiffened as though a flicker of electric shock had passed through them.
A blurry memory flashed across Francesca’s mind. It was a young boy accidentally kissing a young girl. The accident had shocked them, leaving them frozen like statues.
A pure kiss had bounded two young hearts together.
This moment felt like that. The memory seemed far away but familiar.
Danrique was getting worked up as his breath became shorter and heavier. He cupped Francesca's face with his hands, wanting to deepen the kiss.
However, rapid and consecutive knocks came from the door, disrupting the magical moment.
Francesca snapped out of her daze and frantically pushed Danrique away.
Feeling awkward, Danrique turned his back to her to organize his feelings. Once he got his emotions under control, he asked, “What's the matter?”
“Mr. Lindberg, I have something to report.”
“Give me a minute.”
Danrique looked over his shoulder at Francesca and said, “Rest well and stop thinking so much.”
“Okay,” Francesca muttered with blushed cheeks. After shooting him another glance, she hurriedly left.
Gordon bumped right into Francesca upon opening the door. He was shocked to see the shy look on her face.
Francesca dashed back to her room and flung herself onto her bed. She stacked her hands over her chest where her heart was. What is happening?
I have no dating experience and no interest in romance, so why couldn't I push Danrique away when he was so close to me?
