RORY’S POV

The next morning, I tried my best not to feel nervous about seeing Todd. It was very hard considering I have not been able to stop having flashbacks of what happened between us.

Somehow, I have been unable to stop thinking about how moist and soft his lips felt against my skin. When they touched my lips….. they felt even better…….

Or the way his hands moved over my body…..//

While slipping in to a white asymmetrical neck T-shirt and fitted jeans, I tried to remind myself that Todd and I were just friends. I was still saying the same thing to myself as I got to the front lawn of my house where Todd was usually waiting for me.

My breath hitched in my throat and all the pep talk I had been giving myself seemed to have vanished suddenly.

He looked gorgeous! He had his head bent over his phone and his hand was in his pocket. His muscular tall figure towered before me in an imposing but hot way. His hair was so shiny, dark, and it looked damp .

He wore a simple grey, Nik

    RORY’S POV My stomach clenched as I spotted Leslie by her locker down the hall. Todd was completely oblivious to our locked stare as he scrolled through his phone embraced. As we drew closer, Leslie slammed her locker shut, the metallic clang made a very sharp noise. Her eyes flicked to Todd’s hand which held mine and then her eyes flicked to me, a sharp, icy glare that held the sting of yesterday's argument. If looks could kill then I would be chopped liver by now because oh, how Leslie glare at me. Without a word, Leslie turned sharply and walked away, her shoulders stiff. I didn’t know how to feel. On one hand, I felt relieved because for a moment I thought she was going to storm towards me and cause a big scene. On the other hand, Leslie’s eyes held some kind of underlying threat that bothered me, I can’t lie.“Hey.” Todd whispered interrupting my thoughts and my head snapped up and looked at him.“Are you okay?” His brows were furrowed as he looked down at me in confusion

    RORY’S POVDamn it! How exactly am I suppose to go through with these lessons for crying out loud? Currently, my heart is one inch away from leaping out of my chest. Why won’t it be? I don’t think my body has been so pressed up against Todd in…. Forever. (I know, you’re probably thinking, just last night, you both were wrapped around each other slow dancing in a noisy diner. Please squash that!) This bike experience with him is definitely different. At first, all I did was to simply hold around Todd’s waist as he drove us to school on the ever fiery Jardele. But in a short time, I found myself being closer to him and wrapping my arms around even him. It was the most serene place to be. I suddenly forgot all about all my fear for speeding vehicles. It was like being on this bike with Todd was the safest I could be. When we arrived at school, my anxiety had set back in and I could not help but wonder how many people would talk about us.“Thank you for the interesting ride.” I said

    RORY’S POV“What? You both were grinding and I intensely making out just out front?” Rosalie exclaimed in shock and excitement with her eyes widened.I sighed letting my hands cover my face as I sank back on the sofa. I really wished that I could be swallowed up by the Sofa. I had gotten back home, probably trembling like a scared chicken with my back against my door when Rosalie had come in asking what the matter was.“I feel so embarrassed.” I murmed to myself with a sigh as I covered my face up with my hands.Rosalie gave a wicked cackle despite my sensitive situation. “There’s nothing to be embarrassed about baby. It’s not! I just don’t understand how you both went for lessons to kissing…. I thought that maybe the kissing part would come later.” She said with a smirk. Speaking about the kiss brought the memory fresh in my brain. The urgency when his tongue moved with mine in a demanding but savouring manner.I sighed feeling my bones go weak like jelly as I replayed it in m

    RORY’S POV I could feel the frantic beat of my heart as I hurried towards my house shakily. Yes, my body was trembling and threatened to buckle. My body was still on so much fire that it felt like Todd’s hands were still roaming around my body.“Rory! Please wait!” He called after me.I did not listen, I had no intention of waiting or of letting him get to me. But damn these heels! This is why I don’t wear them in the first place!If Rosalie was here, she would be howling at me in laughter. The heel of my shoes are not very high but for someone like me who is always wearing flats…..“Rory!” I heard Todd’s voice more clearly now.He caught up to me before I could even get far but that’s not such a surprise, is it? Imagine me trying to outrun the start basketball player of our school and wearing these shoes!“Rory! For goodness sake!” Todd let out a frustrated growl as his arms closed around mine.He pulled me towards his body and it felt like my body was immediately struck with the s

    TODD’S POV Okay, so there I was, just looking at her. Rory. It hit me again, like it always did, that I just couldn't keep these words locked up inside me anymore. Not after tonight. Tonight felt different. The way it felt to hold her in my arms, the way she just fit against me, like she was made to be there. And honestly, I felt like I was finally where I was supposed to be too, holding her. I don’t want to sound like a crazy person but I’ve been in love with her from the first day I met her. I know I was only eight years old and some of you don’t believe in love at first sight but do believe me when I say that I fell in love with her from the first day and I promised not to let her go. It was surprising to me honestly. I never tried to be around someone so much but I just always wanted to be around her. Her presence eased me and made me feel happy. I enjoyed having her around me. And why wouldn't I? Seriously, she's like finding some incredible treasure, you know?

    RORY’S POVNiall Horan’s voice filled Todd’s car, that slow, easy song wrapping around us like a soft blanket. “Slow Hands.” It fit the mood, somehow. The song was cool and steady. My eyes were closed, but I could practically feel Todd’s glances that made my heart flutter. Tonight delt magical for me and when the car finally sighed to a stop, I knew we were home. My stomach did a little dip of disappointment, a feeling I tried to ignore but couldn’t quite shake. The night had been… nice. More than nice. It had been dreamy.The way Todd had held me, the way he danced right there in front of all those people! The way his fingers brushed against my skin…./“Candy.” Todd’s voice was soft. It broke through my sleepy thoughts and, as always, sent a little thrill dancing through me.I opened my eyes slowly, fluttering my lashes against my cheeks. He was looking at me, and his smile… . “Thanks for tonight,” I managed, sitting up and grabbing my purse from the floor.“You’re welcome,” he s

    RORY’S POVI think I have prayed a hundred times already begging for strength. “Now, chin up,” Todd said softly, his gaze meeting mine. His blue eyes seemed to deepen, and for a fleeting moment, the sounds of the diner faded away, leaving only the two of us in our own little world. I lifted my chin, trying to ignore the frantic beating of my heart, he was looking at me so intensely and I could not help but think of Rosalie, was this a sign? “Good,” he murmured, stepping back slightly, though still within a disturbingly close proximity in the confines of the booth. “Now, try walking. Like you own the diner.”I took a few tentative steps in the cramped space, feeling more like a newborn giraffe than a confident queen amidst the tables and chairs. Confidence, Rory!“More… purpose,” Todd coached, his voice a low tone that showed seriousness. “Imagine you’re heading towards something you really want… like your name on that Professor’s project.” His eyes locked with mine again, and sudd

    RORY’S POV Learning had always been enjoyable for me. It doesn’t matter when, where or how.I enjoy learning, doing assignments, mental tasks…. But learning with Todd? Oh, with Todd, it was… different. It wasn’t as if he was giving some sudden intellectual awakening, mind you. He managed with the scientific names and I know Todd well enough to know that he really doesn’t understand most of what he asks me. But that was not what made me feel happy during this times. It was simply the process. It was in the deliberate way his brow would furrow into these adorable little lines as he painstakingly tried to articulate a question, his focus so intense it was so cute. It was in the fleeting glimpses of his perfect, dazzling smile whenever I managed to stumble upon the right answer flashing his perfect teeth, a reward way better than any A+. And then there were those moments when my explanation went completely over his head, his gorgeous eyes narrowing slightly in confusion, a look that, t
