And the entire experience goes from bad to worse. The words were designed to push her away. To get her angry and annoyed with him because he was 'teasing' her. They were said specifically to make her move.
She'd moved all right. Just in the wrong direction.
Blood rushes in his ears and his heart pounds in his chest at a rate that no amount of exercise could ever meet as her hand reaches for his head. Too shocked, he flinches away from her touch as he stares at her in disbelief.
He's quickly moving to push his hands against the bed and scoot away from her touch because he's so confused by her actions until her question stops him cold.
After all this time, she still has no idea the effect she has on him. His entire body stirs to life at her mere touch to his head and she is completely oblivious to what it does to him. Too shocked to actually move away, his gaze lifts to meet hers and finds himself quickly trapped within the innocent curiosity he finds there.
Warning bells sound in his brain but he ignores them and snatches her hand from his head and in a single swift movement drags her to the bed until she's beneath him as he leans over her. "Tease you."
