Like Damon, Alex felt the same pull. Not kissing Damon felt wrong, but actually kissing him would feel even more wrong. The thing was, Alex wasn't so sure he couldn't use a bit more wrong in his life. Stupid decisions were just part of who he was. Somehow, though, Alex restrained himself, even with the sweet as honey words coming out of Damon's sweeter mouth.
"Can't stand to live without me, huh?" he half purred, his mouth resembling something that might have been a smirk with the slightest hint of a dimple.
