ELIZABETH

What is Wily doing?

Oh my gosh, he’s kissing me. He’s actually kissing me!

And this isn’t some mindless peck on the lips after handing in an assignment. He’s put some thought into this. He stared at me for a breath-stealing moment, then glanced at my mouth and made a choice…

To kiss me!

Wily Wilson is kissing me because he wants to.

Holy shit.

What do I do with this?

Uh… maybe you should kiss him back.

How?!

I’ve never kissed a guy before. I have no idea what I’m doing, and it’s taking everything in me not to freak out.

Just breathe.

His lips are covering my mouth. How am I supposed to breathe?

I can’t do this.

Yes, you can. Don’t you dare move, Elizabeth Satchwell !

Wily’s hand shifts on my face, trailing around to the back of my neck while his tongue darts out, brushing along my lower lip.

Oh shit! What was that?

Do I open my mouth?

Yes! Just like they do in the movies!

At least try it.

My lips are trembling as I tentatively part them to see what it feels like.

Tipping his head, Wily changes the angle, his tongue gliding across the tip of mine.

Oh my gosh, that feels so freaking good!

Am I doing it right?

I don’t know if I’m doing this right.

Do I…?

My brain starts to sizzle, panic taking me out as my heart rate accelerates to this heady rhythm that makes me dizzy.

I can’t do this.

I don’t even understand why he’s kissing me.

And then for some wretched reason, Jade’s face pops into my head, her green eyes flashing.

If she saw us right now, she’d kill me!

Screw her! She’s not the boss of you.

Just enjoy this kiss and ? —

I can’t!

How can I enjoy this kiss when it shouldn’t be happening?

Wily Wilson does not like me that way.

He shouldn’t.

I’m not his type.

I’m not? —

Ripping my mouth away from his, I give him one gasping, gaping look before bolting from my chair and darting around the closest stacks.

“Satch?”

Ignoring his confusion, I run into the back corner of the library.

It’s seriously the stupidest thing I could have done.

One, I left all my stuff behind, and two… I’ve cornered myself.

How the hell am I supposed to escape from here?
