@amaryllx ☽ continued from here
she needed him to stay, & his lips falling against hers only served as a reminder of just how badly she needed him to stay. the fear she felt slowly subsided until it was forgotten. as long as he stayed right there, & they stayed as they were; lips moving against lips, the rest would always be just noise. her hands came to rest on the sides of his shirt & they quickly clenched at the fabric there; ensuring that she would keep him close. it didn’t matter to her who would see or what they would say. if anything she silently hope that the two of them just looked like a young couple showcases their love through actions rather words; which is exactly what they were in that moment.
as they stood there in the middle of the sidewalk getting lost in the realm of each other, he wasn’t lee taemin & she wasn’t his secret girlfriend. they were a boy & girl who loved each other; a man & a woman who had fallen on a rough patch but were slowly getting up to build themselves back up. it wasn’t always easy, but when their lips were pressed against each other it all reminded her how much it mattered. but this kiss was different. it was more than just a declaration of love. it felt more like a statement. his mouth was moving against hers in a rush & rough fashion; one that she almost couldn’t keep up with. & his grip on her cheeks continued to tighten & tighten until she found it difficult to pull away. but the need for air was too apparent, & her body fought him off.
breathing heavy she placed her hands on his chest & peered up to him with eyes full of confusion (with a hint of fear). she wasn’t sure how she was meant to react to such a touch, she hadn’t ever experienced that from anyone. especially not from taemin. ❝ what’s going on with you? ❞ she breathed, her chest rising & falling as she tried to capture the breath that kept running away from her the more she thought about harshness in his touch. ❝ i love you. ❞ she felt the need to remind him; perhaps as a way to coax the softer side (the side she knew well) back out of him.
