Notes: I wanted to write more about Helen and Nate before I go back to my books. Now if it's a little cheesy it's been awhile since I wrote a m/f kissing scene. Well enjoy ^^ This follows
Hanging Out After a few blissful seconds Nate pulled back smiling down at Helen. “That was nice.”
Helen smiled back pressing a kiss against his cheek. “Yes it was.”
Nate sat up sitting back against the couch. Helen followed sitting next to him. Nate wrapped his arm loosely around Helen’s waist bringing her closer. Helen smiled resting her head on Nate’s shoulder. Nate rubbed her side gently. “I suppose I should tell you that I’ve thought about that for awhile.”
“Really?” Helen asked.
Nate nodded, “Yeah at first I thought it was because of the romantic movies Carla made me watch. Then I started thinking about it on my own one day. I thought it was wrong because you’re my best friend and I didn’t want to mess that up. Not to mention I wouldn’t hear the end of it from my family if I messed up either. So I kept the thought to myself even during everyone’s teasing and my string of bad dates. I think I’m rambling so I just wanted to say that I like you, really like you. I liked kissing you too.” Man I sound like I’m 15 again.
Helen looked up at Nate and the flush slowly covering his face. She smiled kissing the corner of his mouth. “I feel the same way. I like you. I really like you and I liked kissing you. You’re funny, sweet, and cute. Even when you annoy me I still like talking with you.” I hope that came out alright.
Nate grinned nuzzling her cheek. “I feel the same when you go into your stubborn mode.”
Helen giggled, “Oh hush, it’s not as bad as your stubborn mode.”
“Nuh uh, mine isn’t as bad as yours.”
“Yes it is.”
“No it’s not.”
“Yes it is.”
“No it’s not.”
“Helen,”
“Yeah Nate,”
“Want to watch another movie?”
“Sure, but before we do I have to tell you two things.”
“Alright, what is it?”
Helen reached up pushing a loose strand away from Nate’s face. She placed a hand on his cheek,
“I always thought you looked cute with hair in your eyes.”
Nate blew a loose strand away looking back at Helen. “Really, because I was thinking about cutting it so it wouldn’t be in my eyes anymore.”
“Hmm trim it, but don’t cut it. I love the way it looks, but short hair could look cute on you too.” Helen said.
“You think so?” Nate asked running a hand through his hair.
Helen nodded, “Yes I do.”
Nate’s flush deepened as he smiled sheepishly. “I’ll think about changing it. What’s the other thing?”
Helen looked down at Nate’s t-shirt before looking up at Nate. She smiled shyly, “Can we kiss again before the next movie?”
Nate smiled, “Of course we can.” He placed his hand on the small of Helen’s back pushing her flushed against him. He leaned forward connecting their lips with a soft kiss. Helen closed her eyes wrapping her arms around Nate’s neck. Nate licked her bottom lip asking for permission.
Helen opened her mouth slowly, moaning when Nate’s tongue touched her own. She pulled him closer slipping her fingers in his hair. Nate groaned rubbing her back slowly. Helen broke the kiss only getting a few seconds to catch her breath before Nate captured her lips again.
Helen moaned leaning into the kiss once more. Her hands returned to Nate’s hair as she pulled him closer. Nate groaned pushing Helen back against the floor as he deepened the kiss. He meant to go at a slow, steady pace for Helen, but it was hard to follow the plan with Helen biting his bottom lip. Before Nate could taste her sweet mouth again he pulled back.
“When do you have to be home?” he asked between breaths.
Helen smiled, “My parents are out of town, remember. I don’t have to be home for awhile. That means I can be here for- upmf!” She groaned when Nate kissed her again. Helen pulled Nate closer opening her mouth to his questing tongue. Nate groaned turning his head to the side to deepen kiss.
This was turning out to be a great day. Nate was sure they could find a movie to watch. Helen didn’t doubt that.
