RED

Vos pulls away but I immediately jump back into his arms and hide my face in the crook of his neck. The vibration from his laughter sends electricity down my spine and I couldn't help but revel in the pleasure that gave me and instead of actually acknowledging it, I only tighten my hold on him.

Yeah like that'll make the situation any better!

"Please don't say anything. I'm really embarrassed." I whisper, dutifully ignoring the hard thing poking at my stomach.

"Why would you be embarrassed?" I feel his hand circle around my waist and hoist me higher against him, effectively making it seem like he's carrying me or maybe it'd look like I was straddling him?

Really, Red? Why in the world are you thinking about this now?

"Because...." I stop and think about why I'm embarrassed. I don't really know why I'm embarrassed actually. I pull away and push his chest, urging him to put me down but as my eyes meet his, I immediately turn a darker shade of red.

"Well?" I swallow hard and purse my lips feeling hot all of a sudden. The intensity of his stare and the giddy feeling running along my nerves not at all helping this situation.

"I just... what was that? I mean I thought... I mean where did that come from?" He gives me a soft smile and as he pulls the hem of my shirt towards him, I slap his hands away. "I can't be near you!"

He immediately frowns and let's go of my shirt, seemingly hurt and of course I am somehow compelled to comfort him. "Not that I don't want to be close to you!" I feel his intense stare through the heat on my face but I refuse to look at him as I stare at the tree behind him. It's a very beautiful tree, mind you. "It's just... I can't think straight whenever you're near me." He stays silent and I start to fidget with the uncomfortable silence that has fallen upon us.

"Look at me." I startle out of my thoughts and look up only to gasp and step back as I come face to face with his chest. How' he got close to me with out me being aware is beyond me.

Psh, You're unaware most of the time anyway.

Ugh. Stupid conscience.

"Red." He slips one arm around my waist, allowing me to go no further than this current position as I regain my bearings. "Remember how I told you that we can't be friends?"

My eyes widen as I remember feeling bothered by that particular statement. I nod silently and gasp as he hoists me up again, making my legs wrap around his waist as my arms find their way around his thick neck.

"I want that to apply to us now." I frown, confusion penetrating my head. So was that a goodbye kiss? I look at him again, pain stabbing at my chest as I try to read his expression but it remains amused and excited.

"So you want to be enemies instead?" I ask carefully, unwinding my arms from his neck and attempting to push at his chest so I could get down but Vos wouldn't budge; instead, he burst out laughing which made me frown deeper.

After about a minute of full out laughing he calms down and rests his forehead against mine. "How does you cute head come up with all these scenarios?" My mouth drops open as I try to once again process his words.

"Wha-"

"I would like to be more than friends. Not enemies, never enemies. I'd like to be..." my heart beats faster with every word that comes out of his mouth in anticipation. Oh my Goddess is this really happening? "... as humans call it, I'd like to be your boyfriend."

I stare at him in silence as my world stops turning and the only thing I could hear is my heart beat against my ears but somehow I could feel everything; I was hyper aware of his arms holding me against him, his chest against mine and his eyes showing nothing but sincerity and devotion.

I hate to be the devil's advocate but what about his mate?

Immediately, I release a shuddering breath. That's right, what about his mate? I'd never want to be the person to ruin a mating.

"So? What do you say?" I open my mouth to respond but I couldn't find it in me to reject him or to accept him. Is it always this hard? I know I want him, I can no longer deny that but what of his mate then? Will he turn out like Abe and reject his mate for me? But even if he did I'd never let him do that. Every one deserves their mate's love.

"Vos..." at the tone of my voice he stiffens and even I could feel his apprehension and anxiety.

Will you really reject him?

Damn it! Stupid conscience! Do you want me to accept him or not? What the hell!

"Red, if you're not ready that's fine-"

TO HELL WITH THIS.

Before he could utter one more word, I slam my lips against him, wrap my arms around his neck and tighten my legs around him as I convey all my feelings into the kiss. I have no experience what so ever but if he wants to be with me he either has to deal with it or teach me how to be better at this.

Vos stands still for all of three seconds before he responds to the kiss and pushes me against a tree as I feel the rough trunk press against my back; he hoists me higher and hooks one hand under my leg while his other hand intertwines with my free hand and pushes my hand above my head as he grinds into me.

Pleasurable sparks run all over my body as a moan escapes my lips, allowing his tongue to enter and battle with mine. The kiss was fierce but gentle at the same time and it was making me go all kinds of crazy, all my worries about being a home wrecker has gone down the drain and the only important thing right now was that I am in Vos' arms and that he is in mine.

I suddenly felt heat from my core as he grinds against me and I couldn't help but mewl louder as his hand releases mine and runs down my face to my shoulder to the curve of my breast and finally rests against the exposed skin of my stomach.

Oh my Goddess this is actually happening!

As he pulls away I take in a lungful of air but find my legs clenching as he continues his assault on my neck and start to run circles over my stomach. "Vos-oh my go-ugh." I moan again as he starts sucking at the base of my neck making my nipples harden and my fists clench.

"Vos!" I finally breathe out and put both my hands against his head so I could physically pull him away but of course that didn't work. I however feel him smile against my neck and move his kisses down to my collar bone. "Vos!" I hiss as another moan escapes my treacherous lips.  

He finally pulls away, his light brown eyes, now completely black as he gives me a dimpled smile. "Was that a yes?" I laugh as I lean against the tree, and clasp my hands behind his neck. I was still straddling him but I didn't want to pull away.

"Wasn't that clear enough yet?" I ask, shaking my head as my heart went into over drive.

"No." My eyebrows raise as tingles run all over my stomach as he start circle his thumb against the skin of my hip bone again. "I think you have to make your answer clearer."

"What-" I couldn't answer because he leans in and closes the gap between us with another earth shattering kiss.

A/N:

I AM SO SORRY.

Between the Volcano erupting, grad school work, actual work and the virus spreading (I work in the medical field and face patients everyday) I've been very busy! I barely have time to write and I'm having a major writer's block but not anymore! Things are better and less hectic now so... yes.

I AM SO SORRY!

I promise to do better!
