Jacks's eyes flash dark and before I know it, he has a hand on my chest and he's pushing me backward until I'm pressed flat against the door of my apartment. My breath catches and that's even before his lips meet mine. Unlike so many of our other kisses, there's nothing tentative about this one, nothing gentle. His tongue slides into my mouth and I have to reach up and grab his shirt to keep from falling straight to the floor.
Somehow, it ends too quickly, blinking my eyes open in a daze when he speaks again, his breath a whisper against my lips.
And then every bit of blood in my body rushes south. "Oh, good heavens," I breathe, my throat suddenly completely dry as I try to swallow, nodding dumbly.
My hands are shaking as pull my keys from pocket and it takes me a truly embarrassing amount of time to get the right one in the lock and the knob turned. Elvis blinks up at us from his perch on the couch and I make sure the door is closed and locked behind us before I clumsily kick off my shoes.
Before I can talk myself out of it again, I crowd up close to Jack, my heart going about a mile a minute. "Maybe, uh... maybe the bedroom? Would that be okay?"
