Her mind dropped that thought partway as she noticed he was leaning towards her. She let her eyes slide shut as he kissed her, keeping her hand on his cheek as she moved just a touch closer to him. Her hand in his squeezed, holding onto him as they sat there and for a moment, she couldn't think of anything else but how close they were and what this kiss meant.
