The Hills Party (The Hollywood Twins #1) Read Online Free PDF Page B

dinner had been wonderful and they started making their way to the West Hollywood party. Rachel began to grow nervous again. It was easy to talk to Kyle, but she was not sure she would be able to get along as easy with his friends. They would probably not have much in common. She expected them to be an assortment of well off, trust fund, twenty-something’s that would not understand why she did not know about the latest celebrity gossip.
     
    When they arrived, the house was much smaller than she expected. To her relief no one was half-naked on the front lawn and when he led her inside, the party was intimate with candles lit and only about a dozen people in attendance. She immediately felt comfortable, and Kyle made the introductions quick and painless.
     
    "This is my friend Miles," he said introducing a handsome young man with dark hair and light blue eyes. He smiled at Rachel.
     
    "This guy has seriously not stopped talking about you since last night," he laughed, causing Kyle to glare at him.
     
    "And this," he said with irritation. "Is my best friend, Cindy," he gestured to a woman who was holding a tray of snacks. She was very pretty with curly red hair and bright green eyes. Rachel felt a little intimidated, but Cindy greeted her so warmly that Rachel could not help but feel comfortable. Once she had met all of his other friends, they cranked up the music. Soon Rachel was lost in Kyle's arms dancing to something more soulful than thumping dance music. She loved the way his arms felt around her, and when she glanced up at him, he was always waiting to meet her eyes, as if he would stare at her all night for just one glimpse of her dark green spheres.
     
    She tried not to let her expectations get too high, but it was hard not to when he was so amazing. Even before the party was over, Rachel felt as if she could walk on air. Her mind was filled with thoughts about what the future would bring. She knew it was too soon to be thinking of such things, but she could not help it. There was no doubt in her mind that she was starting to fall for Kyle. She just hoped it wouldn’t end in heartbreak. She had been in there before and that didn’t end well. However, she also realized that in order to find true love, she would have to risk getting hurt.
     
    The party wore down and when he drove her home, he walked her up to the apartment door.
     
    “I hope you didn’t find my friends too crazy,” Kyle said with a smile.
     
    “Not at all,” she smiled back. “They were wonderful. I had such a great time tonight.”
     
      There in the shadows of the evening, he leaned just a little closer to her. She looked up at him with her dark green eyes, and opened her mouth slightly as an invitation for him to move forward. He smiled in return and nudged his lips a little closer to hers, until their breath was mingled between them. Rachel could not wait any longer, so she tipped her lips upward and crossed the space between them, caressing the softness of his with a subtle but sultry kiss.
     
    Kyle sighed sweetly at the connection and eagerly returned the kiss, though he was careful to keep it soft and slow. Rachel's arms slid around his waist, and his hands cupped her lower back, drawing her closer to him. Her mind spun as his tongue brushed across hers and suddenly she knew. It did not matter if they had only been on one date. It did not matter if he was the Hollywood type, she did not want him to go home.
     
    She reached for the handle on the door, and Kyle took a step back in surprise as she opened the door. He studied her eyes for one hesitant moment, and then swept her along with him inside of her apartment. There was no time to think about what was happening, as the drive that had been set loose within each of them, did not speak in words; it spoke in caresses, and passionate kisses.
     
    The two collapsed onto the couch in the living room. Briefly Rachel thought of Hanna, who most likely was in her room. She wanted to
