Side Effects of a Date

"Aren't you going to invite me in?" Kael pouted dramatically as he stood at her door staring at her with hopeful eyes.

Isidora smiled and shook her head playfully. "Nope. First date privileges only extend as far as dropping me home," she added with a teasing smile.

"But that means we only climbed down a few flights of steps. That is not satisfactory! I mean it is not even a drive." He exaggerated the statement, crossing his arms as if deeply offended.

Isidora shrugged at that. "Your satisfaction is not my problem," she said with a mocking grin. "Now, I'll be going. Bye. Good night."

Before she could turn away, Kael caught her wrist, pulling her close as he leaned in. "Tell me, do first date privileges not include a goodbye kiss?" His voice was low and suggestive as he stared at her, the hopeful puppy look changing into something more sinful.
