[He sighs into her ear, something soft and gentle. Warm breath blows against her skin. Something has gotten into them today. He's not really sure what it is.]
Shhh. It's okay. We have right now. You're stuck with me for the moment.
[He reached out, cupping her face and gently brushing her cheek with his thumb. He smiled, leaning in to kiss her. Now it was his turn to linger at the corner of her mouth. ]
[She was entranced with the way he touched her, she always had been. He was so tender and so gentle, Annie held her breath for a long moment, then turned her head just so. Her lips brushed his lightly and she sighed.]
[A shiver ran through him as she did that. He wanted so badly to return the kiss and deepen it. One hand moved down to the small of her back. He would always worry about her. And always want to protect her. His voice is soft as he whispers in her ear.] Annie...
[She has no idea what they're doing or why, but when he says her name like that, she feels a sense of longing in him that she just needs to echo. She does know. She feels it, too.]
[It wasn't fair. He knew timing was always wrong. And in this moment, he didn't care. Leaning in close, he nuzzled her neck and sniffed her sweet perfume. Closing his eyes, he enjoyed having her like this. ] What are we doing? [Because whatever it was, he couldn't deny himself much longer.
[She was incapable of raising her voice above a soft murmur, but she had no problem with stepping back into his arms, the closeness and his question causing her chest to tighten when she lifted her lips to brush against his jaw while she spoke.] Probably something we shouldn't.
[His lips brushed against hers. It was the barest of kisses, hardly a kiss at all. He wanted this, even if he knew it was a very bad idea. They had gone down this road casually. What would happen if they took it further? He didn't know. ]
[She reached up and touched his face with her fingertips, running them along his cheek before she deepened the kiss just a little. Was this still casual? Could they be casual if they did this again? She didn't know, but she didn't pull away, either.]

Don't make a promise you can't keep.

[Her hug turned into a cling.]

[He sighs, clinging to her right back. No, he isn't going to kiss her or get emotional. Even if he wants to.]
