"If you were mine, you would never feel alone again, Charlie," he whispers against the skin of my neck, giving it a slight nip. His fingers bunch the material of my dress in his palm, hiking it up my thighs. He grabs behind my knees and lifts one leg, wrapping it around his waist and leaving my bare hip exposed. I watch his Adam's apple bob as he swallows heavily, looking between our bodies.
"Pretend?" I pant, knowing this is where we pretend to be normal, act as if we're not obligated to hate each other. That we're ordinary people who want to be together. He slides his palm over my thigh, the feeling of his hand so close to my pussy causing my core to throb.
He nods, his breath heavy as his hand travels between my legs, a finger trailing up my inner thigh. My body breaks out in a sea of goose bumps as a shiver spreads through my limbs.
