She seemed surprised, her eyes fluttering shut as they kissed. He would be able to feel her quick heartbeat as she kissed him back.
His hand hesitated as he rested in gently against her neck before he pulled away suddenly, looking stricken. "I... I... Sorry. I..."
He shook his head, not meeting her gaze as he pulled away, ignoring the draw he felt towards her. "Sorry. Maybe we should just go to bed."
He tensed instantly, his hand coming up almost as if to protect himself from a blow. There was a quiet moment where he was completely still, as if his very blood had frozen. It passed, though, and she would be able to feel his hand run through her hair hesitantly.
He watched her with wide eyes, his hand on the side of her neck. "Don't be sorry," he murmured before taking her hand. "Let's go to bed, okay?"
He pulled off his shirt, looking through the drawers for a pajama top. "I feel like you're lying to me," he said, turning his head to look at her before frowning. "What are you doing?"
She smirked at him, a slow grin spreading across her face. He would be able to see the irregular set of second set of sharper canines. "Take that!"
