A New Beginning
Chapter 23
Next thing I knew I had my lips pressed against Ashley's. His lips were so warm, so soft. I defiantly couldn't pull myself away from them. Butterflies fluttered in my stomach as I felt him press a bit more against my lips. I could feel my heart getting higher and higher, as if it were about to explode. I never thought my first kiss would be so thrilling. He gently puts his hand on the back of my head. I warp my arms around his neck. Our lips move slowly, passionately, against each other. I've never really felt this alive before. Even when I first met Andy and Ashley.
Ashley pulls away, but only a few inches away. "Was that your first kiss?" He smiles, tenderly staring into my eyes. "Yes," I whisper. "And I'm sorry I did that, it was supposed to be a goodbye peck. But, it turned into something more." He strokes my hair. His kind looking eyes peering into mine gives me even more butterflies. "Kara, everything happens for a reason. I don't want you to be sorry for doing that, you shouldn't. I enjoyed every second of it."
I can feel a blush creep across my face. "Ashley, I just don't want to ruin what we have so far. Besides, why in the world would you want me?" He puts both of his hands gently on my face. "One kiss, or more, won't ruin what we have and are making. It's okay to have that little bit of romance between best friends. It spices the friendship up. Makes it just that much more enjoyable." I blink and stare towards his shirt. "Kara," He tilts my head so I'm looking back into his eyes. "You won't break my heart if you don't want to go any further then friends. If you want someone else it's okay."
I feel a tear roll down my face. Ashley wipes it away. "I just, I'm not sure who I want really. But, it doesn't hurt to still flirt with me if I do get into another relationship with someone else. You know I love it when you flirt with me." I say smiling brightly into his eyes. "Thank God, because I know it would really kill me if I couldn't." I brush a strand of hair back that fell onto his forehead. "So, can we just be flirtatious friends? For now at least?" Ashley strokes my cheek. "Of course, Kara. But, can we do something for a little while?"
I look down at his shirt and smirk. "What is it Ashley." I say rolling my eyes. "Can we make out? I promise you'll like it." I giggle, but before I could say anything his lips were on mine. At first it was a soft, light kiss, but then he pressed harder. Oh God, what a passionate kiss. I could hear our lips smacking together. I grabbed the back of his head and made him kiss harder.
Ashley's hands travel down from my face, past my sides, to my hips. He started lightly stroking them. I was getting more turned on by the seconds. I pressed my body against him as he did this. I can't really control it anymore, my hormones are getting the best of me.
Ashley and me hear Andy's car pull in the drive way at the same time. We quickly stop and sit farther away from each other. I can't help but giggle as I watch Ashley wipe my lip stick off his lips. I can't believe we actually French kissed for a few minutes after the passionate kisses.
Andy and CC come in. "Hey Ashley, what's up bro." Ashley gets off the couch to go greet CC. Andy comes up to me. "Hey Kara, I can drop you off home real quick if you want me to, before I go and drop Ashley off at the airport." I smile and stand up. "Sure Andy." I see CC go up stairs as I grab my purse off the coffee table. I'll meet him some other time. I look over at Ashley. Of course, I can't leave without a hug. I go up to him and hug him. He holds me tightly. "Bye beautiful," he whispers in my ear before he lets go of me.
I get in Andy's car and turn towards the passenger window to hide the tears falling from my eyes. Kara it's only for a little while, I remind myself. But, I know for sure he isn't going to be my boyfriend. I like him to much to ruin it with falling in love. I don't believe in love, it only hurts people. Love just is a terrible thing. That's why I just want to be best friends with him, and Andy for that matter. But, sooner or later I want to try out dating someone. See what it's like. And I have the perfect person in mind...
