conversation in over five years.
That’s not much of a friendship.”
    “I like
you. If you could like me too then that’s how friendships start.” He brushed a
lock of her hair off her cheek and tucked it behind her ear. She quivered at
what felt such an intimate touch.
    “Are you
cold?” he asked, misreading her shiver.
    “Yes, a
little.” She fibbed, suddenly needing to be nearer to him. He shifted closer on
the boulder and put an arm around her shoulders. She allowed herself to nestle
into his warmth. She couldn’t resist bringing one hand up and placing it on his
jumper against his chest. She could feel his heart beating under her hand. She
looked up at him under low lashes.
    “Careful,
Rose,” he warned, “You’re playing with fire.”
    She trailed
her hand down his chest, across his stomach and then along the edge of the
waistband of his jeans. She didn’t know what inner demon made her do it, only
that she wanted to very much. She was usually so shy around boys.
    He pulled
her against him. Her chest crushed against his, and kissed her once again.
    She sighed
with satisfaction against his mouth. She had craved this since the first kiss.
A warm spiral of pleasure wound through her. She curled her hands around his
biceps and reveled in his physique; how could she not have noticed before just
how incredibly yummy he was?
    He pulled
back suddenly and she looked up at him, taking in almost for the first time the
tousled black hair, the sky blue of his eyes, the fantastic cheekbones and strong
chin. But he wasn’t looking at her. His eyes were on the row of trees between
them and the school, and then she heard what he must have heard.
    “Leo? Leo!”
Diana’s voice. “Where are you?” her tone began to get plaintive.
    “Damn!” Leo
jumped to his feet. “Sorry, Rose, once again I shouldn’t have done that.”
    Rose, who
had been feeling all dreamy staring at him, suddenly felt annoyed.
    “Are you
and Diana a couple?” She had to ask.
    “No, not at
all.” He ran his hands through his hair as though stressed. “But it’s
complicated. She would be very upset if she thought we were doing this.”
    “She’s in
love with you?” It seemed the only possible explanation to Rose.
    “No, of
course not! It’s complicated.” He kept glancing towards the school.
    “Yes, you
said that.” Rose waited for him to tell her more.
    “I have to
go.” Hmm, apparently he wasn’t going to tell her anything.
    “Right, and
this never happened?” She tried to clarify where they stood with each other
now.
    “Never
happened.” He agreed.
    He turned
as if to walk away. Then spinning back he pulled her to her feet and wrapped
his arms around her.
    “Last
time.” He whispered against her lips. It was a hard and quick kiss but Rose
still felt the whole world tilt. He released her and strode off back toward the
school as she sat back with a bump on the rock.
    So, where
were they now? Back to how they used to be? It was pretty clear to her that he
fancied her and probably pretty clear to him that, no matter how unfriendly she
might have been in the past, she definitely fancied him too.
    How
annoying that her first serious crush was on a Flanagan! It couldn’t be anyone
worse as far as her family were concerned. She couldn’t deny to herself that
she definitely had a serious case of lust for him now. By kissing her socks off
like that he had made her want him badly. The kisses she had experienced in the
past had been nothing in comparison.
    For the
first time, since Leo had first kissed her, she now remembered Ben. How easily
Leo had eclipsed Ben from her mind. Ben was lovely and she did like him, but
she now realized her attraction to Ben had only ever been lukewarm from the
start. He’d never made her feel dizzy with desire. Maybe no one but Leo ever
could. Not that it mattered; she and Leo weren’t going to kiss again. But she
would have to have a conversation with Ben. She and Ben weren’t a couple; after
all
