the end is nigh - what a relief

A laugh followed after her snicker, eyes glancing behind her to find him hot on her heels. The advantage of height and nimble footing had her caught quickly. His hand snatched out, pulling, turning them where he willed. There was no firm resistance, only pitiful tugs and giggling as answer from Aoife. Yet now his bluff had been called, curiosity had taken over.

Gravity upended before she could dwell further. Calves hit the frame of the bed, laughter switching to a yelp of surprise as her balance tipped backwards, sinking into the blankets and mattress. Everything came sharply into focus with his words. The bed, his leaning over her. Leaf’s throat went dry, her breath caught unsure of what to say at first with this more direct Seb.

Her cheeks flushed, their rosy hue deepening further as she found herself outmatched. Her previous confidence faltered and Leaf stammered. [color=#0074d9]“I.. heh, I…eh… I don’t.. Um… know.”

[color=#0074d9]Stop fucking laughing.

[color=#c14700]I can’t help it. How?

[color=#0074d9]We are not talking about this.

There was an audible gulp and Leaf closed her eyes, awaiting ridicule. After a short breath to compose herself she calmly added.[color=#0074d9] “This.. this is where I admit. I've. I’ve never.."[/color] she laughed, wishing she had the ability to be invisible, beginning to draw her hands back to cover her face.[color=#0074d9] “I…I don't know, is what I'm saying. I know... but I.. eh.. haven’t...beenwithanyone,Sebastian.” [/color]
