leaning his head back.

He quickly tries covering it up with a cough. “Lee! Are you listening to me?!” Jenn shouts sounding annoyed. “Sorry babe—something got caught in my throat.” I don’t even pretend to hide my laughter; Lee turns to me shushing me with his finger.

I bring my hand up zipping my lips, and begin to unbuckle his belt. He quickly grabs my hand stopping me. Meeting my eyes silently begging me to stop. I pretend to think about it. I shake my head mouthing, “I’m having way too much fun.”

I slowly pull his shirt up kissing his naked chest feeling it rise and fall as he took each deep breath. “Well tell her…I said I hope she’s…okay.” Lee finally said trying to move from underneath me, he whispers, “Kate…please…stop it.”

Shaking my head ignoring him—I lean into his ear and whisper, “What’s the magic word…Lee?” Hearing his silent breaths he finally talks into the phone, “Yea I’ll see…you tomorrow…“ I slowly lift my face up looking in his eyes.

Meeting my eyes he glances at my lips as I lick them moving closer. He doesn't turn away, looking deep in my eyes--waiting. I watch him close his eyes as I finally bring my lips down on his--kissing him.

We both hear Jenn shouting his name--he pulls me closer, running his free hand up my back and through my hair. Hearing our heavy breathing and feeling our wet mouths I pull his hair bringing him closer. I just couldn’t get enough of Lee.

“Lee! If you don’t answer me right now!?!” Jenn shouts in the phone. We finally pull away with Lee grabbing the phone. I smile getting up walking to the bathroom.

Closing the door I let out a breath. Oh my god I just kissed Lee--and he kissed me back! Oh my god...and did he ever

kiss me back. I don't think--no. I know I have never been kissed the way Lee just kissed me. It was perfect.

And with Jenn right there on the phone--I let out a laugh. I look at myself in the mirror shaking my head You are going straight to hell Kate--you know that?

After I catch my breath I turn off the light leaving the bathroom. Shocked to still find Lee waiting on my bed.

The Hidden in me

Can’t believe his still here.

Either he's incredibly pissed--ready to brawl it out. Or his ready for round 2!

I slowly walk to bed stealing glances at him trying to decipher what kind of a ‘Lee’ is waiting for me. He watches me approach the far dresser grabbing the bottled-water.

Not giving anything away as I stood there sipping--hoping he’d be the first to speak. No such luck. Was that a smile? He turns back to the t.v. with what I thought was a smirk on his face. So far so good.

“I thought you would have left.” I finally said putting the bottle down--still cautious to make any sudden moves.

He looks up at me, “Why would you think that?”

“I dunno… I figured you would be mad at me for… what I just did.” Never leaving my eyes he licks his lips--smirking, “And what did you just do?”

“Come on Lee--really?” I finally said getting on the bed, sitting up opposite of him. “Yea—really.” He said looking me in the eyes.

Playing with the covers I look up at him, “Umm… you know I kinda played with you a little.” He stifles a laugh raising his eyebrow, “You kind of ‘played’ with me a little?”

“Yea.” “Okay I see.” He said as he nodded his head trying not to smile.

“What?” I finally said. “Oh nothing. You.” “What about me?” “Nothing—just you.” He finally said looking away at the tv with a smile on his face.

Okay he is not getting away with that. “Lee?” “Hmm?” He said still looking away. I hit him on his knee, “Lee? What do you mean by that?”

And turning to me he responds, “I mean leave it to you to classify what you just did as ‘playing’ with me.” “Well I was. What else would you call it?”

He brings his hand up placing it on his chest, “You’re asking me?” “Yea, I’m asking you.” I said crossing my arms over my chest. A little annoyed--don’t ask me why.

Looking down he smiles, “I don’t think… you were playing with me at all.” And looking up at me, he meets my eyes, “I think… deep down you were more than serious.”

He stares at me waiting for me to respond--I don’t. Instead I get up walking to the dresser.

I could feel my heart pounding, and there was something fluttering in the pit of my stomach somewhere--that I wish would stop. I was nervous--he made me nervous. And I couldn’t bring myself to look at him.

Knowing Lee I knew if I looked at him he would see it written all over my face. So I stood at the dresser eating a strawberry. I figured if I kept myself busy--it wouldn’t show as much. Plus it gave me something to do with my hands--that hadn’t stopped shaking since he looked at me.

I mean yes a part of me was serious about what just happened but if I admitted that then… it would make being around him just that more complicated. And I needed to keep things light--fun. Otherwise my nerves would take over and I wouldn’t be able to handle it.

“Kate?” “Hmm?” I finally said—pretending to concentrate hard on what I was doing. Which wasn’t much. I mean how many ways can you eat a strawberry?

“You can eat them over here ya know,” Lee finally said sounding amused. “Oh yea I know—I just didn’t want another ‘episode’ to happen. You know me,” I said glancing at him trying to sound as ‘un-nervous’ as I possibly could--while also trying to justify me standing at the dresser in the first place.

I turn looking at him, “Would you like something else to drink? We are out.” I held up the empty bottles of water. He shook his head, “No I’m okay.”

“Okay well I’ll be right back.” I walk to the door. “Kate—stop.” Startled I stop turning around raising my eyebrows waiting for him to speak. He doesn’t. He gets up walking toward me standing in front of me.

Swallowing I don’t look up in his eyes. “Am I making you nervous Kate?” Lee said no more than two inches away from me.

I could feel his breath on my face. “No. Why you say that?” I said glancing up at him. I know--I am such a liar.

He runs his hand down my arm with his fingertips holding my hand, “No? Then why are you shaking?”

After I didn’t’ respond he takes his hand gliding his fingertips along the base of my neck bringing them down to my chest, placing his hand over my heart, “I can feel your heart racing… am I not the reason for that?”

“You know you are,” I finally whispered silently to myself. He takes his hand lifting my head, “What did you say?”

Finally meeting his eyes I respond, “You know you are…Lee.”

We stare into each other’s eyes, him still holding my chin. He brings his face closer and this time I close my eyes as he brings his lips to mine--kissing me.

Catching our breaths he pulls me closer bringing his hands up running them through my hair--never leaving my lips. I touch the sides of his face taking both my hands running them through his hair.

Feeling his heavy breathing on my face and feeling his body against mine I let out a quiet moan--pulling his hair. He pushes me against the door opening my mouth with his tongue. He finally pulls away with me sandwiched in between both his hands as he leaned against the door.

“Why did…you pull away?” I finally asked through shuddered breaths.

“I haven’t pulled away… I’m still here,” Lee whispered in my ear as he took his hand running it down my chest touching my breast. I feel myself let out a breath closing my eyes.

“I’ve never touched you like this…” He said gently tugging on my nipple area feeling it rise with his touch. Kissing along my neck--he played with my breast; gently squeezing it with his hand.

I grab portions of his hair as he did so letting out quiet moans. I never knew I could feel like this.

He looks up at me smiling, “And I’ve never heard you make sounds like this either…” I let out a laugh--silently embarrassed. He lightly chuckles biting my ear, “I like it...”

Feeling myself blush I bring my hand up covering my face. He brings my hand down looking in my eyes--I look away. “Kate?”

I bring my hand back up covering my face, “What?” He doesn’t pull it away, he takes my free hand placing it on his chest, “You feel that?”

Feeling his racing heart underneath my palm I bring my hand down looking in his eyes. “You make me nervous too,” he finally said meeting my eyes.

I grab his shirt pulling him closer kissing him--hungrily. I could kiss Lee forever.

Feeling my heavy breathing as I caught each breath, I feel him run his hands down the sides of my body grabbing my ass pulling me closer.

Feeling him hard in between my thighs I instinctively bring my body closer--grinding him with my hips. I hear him let out a silent moan as he sucked on my face still grabbing my ass thrusting it against him.

“Touch me…Lee” I hear myself whisper as I lean my head back closing my eyes. “I am touching you… god

do I love touching you like this…” he said as he runs his hands up under my top grabbing my breast.

I take his hand gliding it down my body resting it over-top my pants in between my thighs, “No here… touch me here Lee…”

Feeling his hands there I let out a moan dropping my hand still feeling him there as he moves his hand playing with me, “Damn Kate… you have no idea what you do to me…” He brings his hands up pulling my top over my head. Hearing a knock we both freeze. “Kate?”

Realizing it was Paul at the door Lee puts his hand over my mouth resting his body against mine. Hearing our breathing slow
