“A little,” she said, slightly smiling.
Without asking, I wrapped one arm around her shoulders, bringing her closer to me. I could have found a blanket or offered her a sweatshirt, but I wanted to be the one to warm her up. I needed this moment to make my move.
Thankfully, Ava didn’t protest and allowed me to snuggle her closer to my body. A soft melody played on the screen as a pair of lovers began to kiss during the movie. Ava smiled, and my heart began to race wildly.
“After this movie, do you want to watch another one, or are you ready for bed?” I asked.
Her answer would be my ticket to knowing what to do next. I waited anxiously for her to respond, praying she wanted to stay up longer with me. If she chooses to go to bed, I may lose my chance with her tonight.
“I’m not really tired. Besides, I’m having a good time hanging out with you,” she said softly.
Heat pooled inside of me. Damn, was she into me? We had connected on so many levels the last two days, but did that mean she desired me the way I did her?
My hand hung close to her chest, and I couldn’t seem to remove my eyes from her perky tits that were right under my fingertips. One finger slightly brushed against her breast, eliciting a slight move from Ava. However, she didn’t shy away from me, which gave me hope.
“I enjoy being with you,” I told Ava, forcing her to look at me. “You are so beautiful.”
She had to know how much I craved her. It had to be pouring out of me. Her cheeks flushed from my compliment, which was the cutest thing I had ever seen. I allowed my hand to brush against her breast again, and this time, my fingers lingered along the fabric of her shirt a little longer. I wanted to rip that shirt off her and suck on her tits, but I knew I needed to take this slowly. Ava deserved better than someone just ravishing her body without knowing how special she truly was.
“I...” she opened her mouth to speak, but her words trailed off.
Did she want me to stop? Good god, I hoped not.
“If you want me to stop or leave you alone, just say it. I want you, Ava, but I would never do anything you didn’t want me to do,” I swore.
The words were difficult to get out, but they were the truth. Ava was special and worth waiting for. Shaking her head, Ava bit her lip in a move that had me wanting to take her right there.
“That’s not it. I just... this is so different for me,” Ava said.
I knew what she meant. She had only been with me, and I’m sure having feelings for a woman was complicated. I needed her to know that her heart and body were safe with me. I wasn’t like the others/men she had been with before.
“I understand. I respect you. I want you, fuck how I want you, but I won’t push you to do anything you don’t want to do,” I explained.
She looked down at her lap, confusion swirling on her face. “I guess I’m just feeling so many things. I’ve never wanted a woman before, but you have me feeling things I’ve never felt,” she admits.
Fuck. Me.
“I want to make you feel good,” I breathe.
My hand slightly shook as I rested it on Ava’s knee. I heard her breath catch, but she didn’t take her eyes away from the film on the screen. Her silky-smooth skin felt cool beneath my fingers.
I knew I was playing with fire, but this was my chance, and I had to know if Ava felt anything for me. Tyler and Lydia had gone to bed an hour ago, and Ava could have retired to her room as well, but instead, she stayed up with me to watch another movie. That had to mean something, right?
Plus, she was wearing a skirt and made no move to hide her bare skin from me.
Tilting her head, Ava turned to look at me. There was something in her eyes: desire, possibly?
My hand roamed up her thigh, inching closer to the hem of her skirt. She didn’t move away from me, and, to my complete shock, she opened her legs a little further to me.
“Is this, okay?” I whispered, my breath warming her sweet neck.
Her lips pursed as she nodded.
Moving further up her leg, my fingers brushed against her silky panties. I could feel the heat radiating from her sweet pussy, and she was already wet with desire.
If I had any questions about whether Ava felt anything for me, this answered all of my doubts. She may never have been with a woman before, but I turned her on.
Leaning closer, my lips hovered close to hers. Ava’s eyes lit up with surprise as she stared back at me.
