end; this was our final move.
Once there was enough distance between us, he crooked
his finger at me, beckoning for me to come to him.
I did.
I walked, and then I took off running, one final lift, the
same climatic lift as the one in the movie.
Once I was close enough to Maddox, I jumped. His
hands gripped my hips, and he lifted me up and over his
head. Strong and firm, he kept me steady.
Oh God.
Every muscle in my body tightened. I released a shaky
breath as I slowly slid down the length of his body, feeling
every hard inch of him. My palms pressed over his chest,
sliding down his ribs and abs.
“I got you,” he rumbled.
Do you?
Once I was touching the ground again, I curled my arms
behind his neck, and our foreheads pressed together. His
lips brushed against the tip of my nose, and my eyes
fluttered close.
I can’t breathe.
I swayed, dizzied by the mere proximity of Maddox. My
heart hammered in my chest. He exhaled, and his minty
breath was on my lips.
Don’t kiss me.
Kiss me.
No, don’t ruin this.
A loud clap against the silence of the room had me
flinching away. My eyes flew open, and Maddox’s darkened
as he pulled away.
I swiveled around and faced Bea. When did she get
here?
“Lila!” she squealed, clapping her hands. “That was
amazing… explosive! Oh my god!”
Bea walked further into the room, looking quite pleased.
If there was any tension in the air, she ignored it.
