Not That Bad
Twilah’s heart raced as she listened to her rapid breathing.She then looked right into Blake’s eyes and said, “What if I don’t like bad? Then what?”
He chuckled then replied, “I’ll be really bad.”
He smiled and Twilah rolled her eyes and looked away, trying to hide her smile.But, Blake lightly pulled her chin to face him.
“You busy tonight?” His voice made her hands tremble.
“Uh..” She hesitated, “Yes.”
“Come on, it’ll be fun!” He inched closer to her face as if trying to convince her.
“Sorry babe, I’m not that bad.” She said cooly.
“That’s a shame.” He said sarcastically butat the same time he meant it. His face suddenly turned serious and it got silent again. The base of the music was the only thing that could be heard. He set his hands on both sides of her cheeks. He leaned forward so slowly to kiss her but Twilah turned her head slightly down. As much as she wanted to she knew she couldn’t.
“Blake…” She whispered,”I hardly know you..” His lips were centimeters from hers.
“I have to go..”She whispered.
