Cinderella Dorms
We were in the boy's dormitories. It was almost midnight and we were the only ones awake. I was trying to finish that horrendous Potion's essay and he was--Well, I'm not sure what he was doing, but I doubt he was studying. "Hey Shay," I said, still immersed in the essay. "How do you blend--?" I looked up and he was much closer than he should have been. Please, Seamus, don't taunt me like this.
"Why haven't you kissed me yet?" The seductive note in his voice startled me.
"Wha-uh-what?" I squeaked.
"Why haven't you kissed me yet?" he repeated, as if I hadn't savored every word the first time.
"I...well, I...uh...I mean, I don't...Well, I do...but I'm not-"
My breath stopped as he let his hand slowly slide up my chest before allowing a shushing finger to rest on my lips. I shivered.
This has to be a joke, I thought.
"He's only joking...he's only joking...he's only joking"
He quickly removed his hand and let it lie limply at his side.
Oh no! Had I said that out loud??
"What?" I could hear the flustered-hurt-anger in his voice. He stepped away.
I reached out. "No, Seamus, no, you don't understand! I just meant--"
The anger must have won. "Whatever, Dean."
He walked away as my knees gave out and the clock struck twelve.
