Chapter 39
Jace,
You probably think I play hard to get and tease you on purpose.
I have no plot devised, in fact I'm completely clueless.
It's just that when I see you, my world shrinks down to the size of the space in between us.
You could be lecturing and I'm trying to listen your advice, but your words get lost in the music that is your voice.
If I could just lean over, gently tilt your chin and let our eyes lock together as they naturally do every time.
You'd stay still as I leaned in.
You may say something more and I would answer with 'I promise', whether it fit the question or not.
There may be hesitation, a moment for you to try and stop me, but if you don't;
Our mouths would touch, my landing on yours.
It would feel firm and taste sweet.
It would be us kissing, and for ever after that kiss start a new beginning.
Remember the 80,000 love letters? The count would be reset to the first love note after the kiss.
But I won't be counting as your mouth opens easily to mine.
Your arms will circle me and pull me closer.
My tongue will feel ridges as it explores deeper.
You may catch your breath in your throat as I immediately feel for skin somewhere on your body.
But I'm the amateur, just a student in this art and one minute later you would have me disrobed and flat on my back.
I would be in a panting frenzy as I have never experienced.
Your hands will be everywhere, your fingers in sync with your mouth.
How fast the lesson will be over for me.
When you pull away, you'll wake me from my dream.
I'll whimper "don't stop."
You'll eye me and try to give me assurance.
It won't help and you'll have to leave.
You'll say, "I don't want to go."
I'll hold your empty shirt in my fists.
I won't control myself.
Your breath will hitch when I run my tongue up your neck before I gently nip at your earlobe.
Then I'll murmur in your ear, "teach me more."
Please meet me soon.
Clary
