I step closer to her, quickly grabbing the roll and tossing it back on the shelf. What few inches dividing us is cut to zero when i take hold of her upper arms and draw us into a kiss. slightly tilting my head to my right and planting a kiss firmly onto her soft, full lips. I had betrayed her trust in me and caught her off guard with this kiss. Her body tensed when the situation became clear to her. Frantically her arms pushed and shoved me trying to release my grip. I kissed her deeper. Her body dipped and twisted, working to free itself and still my kiss lingered.
I should of Let her go, and I would of if she had at any point pulled her lips away from mine. While her body fought against me, her kiss did not. The kiss was more satisfying than I could of ever imagined. Her lips caressing mine and mine, hers. The sweet taste of her mouth slowly filling mine made my heart beat out of my chest. It made every nerve in my body tingle to be locked in the first, and maybe only kiss, with the most gorgeous girl I have ever known. I never wanted this kiss to end but I didn't want to suffocate this poor girl, so I withdrew my lips from hers.
I realized as I pulled away that I hadn't thought of anything to say or do after I kissed her. There I stood, hands still on her arms, probably looking like a deer in headlights. I couldn't read the look on her face. "What have I done?" I thought to myself.
Suddenly I couldn't look at her anymore. I was disgusted with myself for putting her through that. I should probably go." I managed to mutter. She didn't say anything. I turned and walked away. I left her standing there in the stock room. I didn't look back I just retrieved my cart and walked out of the store. On the walk out I couldn't help but think about what an asshole I was. Katie deserves better than that. " But why didn't she pull her lips away from me? Did I imagine that?" I asked myself. It was useless to try to wrap my mind around what just happened.
My heart was still pounding like I had been thrown out of an airplane. Nothing made sense. I have been to this store hundreds of times and as I left I tried pulling the door open instead of pushing. I did manage to figure out the cargo door to my delivery truck but fumbled locking the cart into place. I needed to calm down and collect myself before I got behind the wheel. I sat down on one of the thigh high shelves in the back of the truck to rest. I put my elbows on my knees and my head in my hands. I just stared at the floor wondering what was next. Would she call the police to report me molesting her? She had every right to. "Well Nick, was it worth it?" I said aloud to myself.
