The time flew by, I tried to make Emily feel comfortable and directed the topics of the conversation. I noticed that the wine loosend her up a bit, Ieven got the feeling that she was flirting..?
At moments like that I had to restrain myself because I want to take control and show Emily what I can make her do and feel. Luckily I have good control.
After we cleaned up, I suggested to sit down on the couch with a drink.
"Tell me, do you see anyone right now? Do you have a partner?" and I looked at Emily and a light blush appeared on her cheeks. I have to chuckle to myself because I feel like my looks are having an effect on her.
I wanted to ask this question earlier in the past few weeks, but I hadn't found the moment yet.
In any case, I can no longer deny that I am attracted to this beautiful woman. But I also know that this is not possible, in this position. In addition, I do not know whether she is in a relationship; I'm not going to start anything with someone who's in a relationship.
"Can you hear yourself? Relationship? Stop daydreaming Liz" I mutter to myself.
Meanwhile I hear a soft cough from Emily. I have to shake my head to get out of my own thoughts. "Sorry, my mind was somewhere else"
"I'd like to know where" I hear her mumble softly.
"No, you don't want that" I say with a wink. And where her cheeks used to be a light pink, there is now a darker shade.
For I don't want her to feel ashamed, I say; "But to return to my question..? Tell me"
She clears her throat and says; "Well at the moment, I don't see anyone.. I've had a few relationships in the past but I don't think I have found anyone who suits me and who wants to stick with me" she says with a small smile.. While she Says this she looks at me and I see something in her eyes that I can't quite place. Insecurity? A need? It's vulnerability.. And that's when I decide she might be worth taking the chance and blurring the line. I slide a little closer to her, move my hand to her face and let it slide down her cheek to her neck, intertwining my fingers in her hair. Meanwhile, I hear her breathing stop.
"Then what is it that you are looking for?"
