“Okay.”

I enter the kitchen, easily gliding now that I have a mission. Or, to be more accurate, now that I have a good excuse to stay off that couch for another minute.

I open the refrigerator and grab two cans of soda from the door.

“You okay?”

I snap up and spin around to find Drew standing in the kitchen doorway.

“Yeah,” I blurt. “I’m fine. Why?”

“You just seem nervous,” he says.

“No.” I blow a raspberry. “Not nervous. I do this all the time.”

He raises a brow. “Do what?”

“Uh…” I swallow. “Glass with ice or straight from the can?”

“Glass,” he answers.

I set the cans on the counter, purposefully putting my back to him as I reach for the cabinet above my head.

Relax.

I set two glasses down and?—

A hand grazes my shoulder from behind. Chills erupt down my spine and Drew steps closer. His touch wanders upward as he pushes my hair to the side and exposes my neck.

“Hey,” he whispers.

I shiver. “Hey…”

Drew kisses my neck. I close my eyes, feeling the gentle purse of his lips on my skin and his other hand inching around my hip. He kisses me again, this time even deeper as I instinctively lean back against his body and his hand slowly crawls toward my breast.

“Chips!” I blurt out.

He pauses. “Chips?”

“Uh…” I spin around to face him. “Did you… want some?”

“No,” he says, smiling with his eyes on my Jenna-approved cleavage.

He kisses me, and I feel it everywhere. My lips tingle and my toes curl in my shoes. My belly rumbles and my hairs stick up. An eager passion takes hold of me. I push onto the tips of my toes as I wrap my arms around his tall shoulders. He pulls me against him, holding me about an inch off the floor as he kisses me even deeper.

Our lips barely part as Drew guides us away from the counter. I hold on to his shoulders, feeling lightheaded and woozy, but his kiss is more than enough to keep me steady.

He releases me on the couch and I let him guide me onto my back.

Be open. Keep your back straight.

Wait, we skipped some steps here.

Uh…

Touch him.

I hesitate as Jenna’s voice echoes in my head. The movie plays on, filling the silence with comedic banter, but none of it is as loud as her berating me.
