“Are you okay?” Levi said, his forehead creased in confusion over her sudden change of behavior.

“I’m fine.” Her voice sounded breathy and disjointed to her ears, but he only nodded.

He leaned in to her, tucking a lock of hair behind her ear. “Are you sure you’re feeling okay?”

“I’m sure,” she reassured him, her lie failing miserably.

The panic beating inside her couldn’t hide the intensity with which she wanted his lips pressed against hers. The fear didn’t stop her from leaning in to him, from meeting him halfway.
