Troubled Heart

“A-are they--?” Claire stammered with her round eyes on Hunter, her cheek starting to blush. She slightly bit her bottom lips and looked down at her feet.

“Yes,” Hunter said while looking down at her face. “So, let’s just get this over with,” Hunter said coldly and half-whispered.

He took his hand, touching between her jaw and cheek.

Claire felt as if her heart was about to explode because she’s feeling both nervous and excited by his touch and the gazes from everyone there.

She was slightly held back between fluttering her eyes and gasping, but Hunter’s fingers were already on her nape.

His thumb was under her jaw, he gave a slight pressure with his thumb which made Claire have no other choice except to bring her chin up a little bit more.

As soon as their lips clashed with each other, Claire didn’t hear any sounds at all. She could hear her beating heart pounding so hard, and her surroundings turned blurry as if they were alone.
