Riley's face flushed crimson, and she instinctively glanced at Ross.
Ross immediately set down his glass and jumped up. "Uh... you guys talk. I'm going to use the restroom." He darted toward the hallway but, realizing he had never been there before, stopped in confusion. He looked at Riley awkwardly. "Where's the bathroom?"
Riley pointed the way.
Ross bolted like his shoes were on fire, vanishing into the bathroom in the blink of an eye.
Riley shot Sebastian a playful glare. "Look at how much you terrified him."
Sebastian looked the picture of innocence. "I didn't do anything." He extended his hand toward her again.
She walked over and placed her hand in his.
With a gentle tug, she tumbled right onto his lap.
She thought he just wanted to hold her hand and certainly hadn't expected to be pulled onto him. Panicking, she tried to scramble up.
Sebastian's large hands locked firmly around her slender waist.
Riley looked at him in a panic, lowering her voice. "Let me go. Ross is going to walk out and see us."
"He knows better. He won't come out."
"We still shouldn't—"
Before she could finish, Sebastian's lips crashed down onto hers, silencing her. She pushed weakly against his shoulders.
He broke the kiss, resting his forehead against hers as their breaths mingled. His voice was dark and seductive. "Did you miss me?"
Feeling his warm breath fan across her skin, Riley felt her entire face burn. Staring into his dark, smoldering eyes from mere inches away, her heart raced. "Yes."
A devastating smirk curled his lips. He leaned in, brushing his mouth teasingly against hers. "Aren't you going to ask me?"
That light graze sent a jolt of electricity straight through her. Her fingers curled involuntarily against his shoulders. "Did you miss me?"
"Day and night." With that, his mouth claimed hers once more.

Update please...
Its better when the female lead is strong. Nothing worse then reading a story with a weak main character...
