Her lips.
The taste of her mouth on mine.
The feel of her breath against my cheek.
The way her tongue felt when it slipped into my mouth.
Every part of me hums to life just thinking about that kiss.
My body responded in ways I’ve never felt, from what should be described as a simple kiss.
That was before she deepened it. Or maybe I was the one who pulled her closer.
I can still smell her perfume.
Although now I don’t have to imagine her perfect scent, I’m right next to her. I just have to be careful not to take a huge whiff, or I might seem crazy.
I’m not obsessed with the enemy, Bristol Greyson.
Not even I believe that silent mantra that itches my head.
“Quit staring, Moretti, I’m fine.”
I can’t blame her for using my last name, since I’ve been calling her Greyson.
I hate feeling that there’s a spark between us. Anyone else, and I’d be excited, elated even, but with Bristol, I’m just waiting for her to rip out my heart and stomp all over it.
“Have you seen a doctor about the fainting?”
Her eyes tighten. “It’s none of your business.” She’s pissed once again. Not a huge surprise, considering who’s angry with me.
I’ve gotten used to her hatred of me. It’s not like I see her very often anymore. That was one reason I chose not to attend Great Falls University. I heard Bristol Greyson was attending; I opted for somewhere far away from her.
I’d never admit that little fact to anyone. Not even my twin knows the reason I picked Evergreen University.
Plus, the scholarship was an added bonus. Dad was surprisingly thrilled that I picked EU, which I thought was a little weird.
Mom always had more interest in hockey, at least attending my high school games. I can’t recall Dad ever going to a high school game that I played, but he’s always busy with work.
I never really cared.
Playing hockey was about having fun.
And getting a full-ride scholarship and guaranteeing me a spot on the hockey team with Ashton and Luca, it sealed the deal for me.
While I’d met them when we were much younger, it was the fact that I’d seen Luca play against the Predators the previous year, when we toured the campus.
I wanted to be on his team.
He’s a fantastic center.
I play right wing.
We make an amazing combination, and I wouldn’t be that far away from my twin sister. Going out of state was going to be a huge adjustment for Sophia. I felt a little bad that I wasn’t going to attend Great Falls with her, but knowing we were a couple of hours apart, it was perfect.
Sophia steps closer, glancing Bristol over. “Can I get you anything? Water? Juice?”
“Do you have anything salty? And water would be good.”
