For now and for this moment.

[kristay]

Xander chuckled softly as he interlaced his fingers with hers. "You could do that, but I think you'd find it annoying too so it wouldn't really serve the purpose." He nodded, he too didn't want the night to end. He just wanted to lie down there, curl up with Collins under the brightly lit night sky. He wanted to make wishes and kiss her senseless, hear her laugh and get to know her even more. "I think we can arrange that." Xander wanted the same thing, and just thinking about the kiss to end the night made him want to kiss her again so he did. He pressed his mouth against hers briefly, just to taste the chocolate and strawberries she had eaten.

[Tiff]

Collins pulled out of the kiss and stared into his blue eyes which reflected the meteors streaming across the sky. "Would you mind if I kept kissing you?" She asked. "I mean I like the meteors, but I love kissing you more. I want my mouth to hurt from kissing you so much."

[kristay]

Xander chuckled at her statement and nodded; he wouldn't have wanted anything else in the world if he could just keep kissing Jordan Collins. He lightly brushed her cheek with his free hand, moving closer to lightly kiss her cheek and trace her jawline with his mouth before kissing her mouth. "I'd like that... I'd like that very much actually."

[Tiff]

Collins' eyes opened as he moved from her lips to her cheek and jawline, but swiftly slammed them shut once again once he reached her mouth again. She was truly fighting the lustful thoughts and actions, eating her up inside and after a minute of kissing his gorgeous lips, she soon fell right back into the kiss, thoughts still in tact, but knowing her acting on them would turn out ugly. She stopped beating herself up over rushing into things and wanting to continue to rush and just enjoyed what was happening at the present moment.

[kristay]

Xander only pulled away once he was sure he'd run out of air, lightly sucking on her bottom lip before opening his eyes and pulling away altogether. He shook his head as he lightly brushed the pad of his thumb against her smooth cheek. "You're like a drug to me, Collins. I can't get enough of you..." It was like Collins was slowly eating away at the binds and restrictions he put on himself and it was taking every ounce of control that was left in his body to keep from pinning her down and having his way with her. He just wanted her that much; Xander was scared though. He knew he felt fluttery and ridiculously happy when Collins was around. Xander loved hearing her talk, seeing her smile and laugh... He loved kissing her and all the things that made Collins who she was. But he had never heard of anyone falling in love so quickly; was it possible? Was it possible that he had fallen head over heels in love with Jordan Collins?

[Tiff]

Collins was in a content place, she didn't even bother pouting when he pulled away to get some air, she kept her eyes closed as he sucked on her lip, ran his thumb across her cheek and only when he spoke did she open her eyes to look up at him. She smiled warmly up at him and nodded her head. "Same for me Xander." She let the smile spread further across her face as she watched various emotions cross his features. "You confused too?" She asked.

[kristay]

He felt his cheeks flush and darken with color when he realized that Collins was watching him struggle with his emotions. "I-I want you so much Collins, it's something new to me... I have never wanted anything more in my life than the way I want you right now. I want to wait, I don't want to rush things and ruin them... But..." He ran his fingers through his hair, hoping he wasn't blushing anymore. "You're so perfect, I'm afraid that if I wait any longer, you'll realize how unworthy I am of the attention you give me." This was still their first real date but he wanted Collins to be his. He smiled a bit nervously at her as he lightly cupped her cheek. "Jordan Collins, I know I promised you I'd take things slow but my hormones and my heart are just not listening to what I'm telling my brain. I know this is only our first official date but would you be my girlfriend?"

[Tiff]

Collins started to feel bad for making his head spin so wildly. She'd given Chelsea so much grief about rushing into a relationship and now here she was about to say yes to this gorgeous guy and maybe even take it a step past what Chelsea had done. She sat up and took his hands, she nodded her head yes. She'd been fighting the urge to tell him no, for his own good, maybe to get his head back in order, but she wasn't strong enough for that, she was fighting her own moral battle. "You're sure?" She'd already committed, she just wanted to make sure he was really alright with it, it wasn't meant to be offensive at all. "I don't want you to rush if you aren't ready, I'm having a hard time fighting my desire for you, myself and I'm losing the battle."

[kristay]

Xander chuckled at her question and responded with a nod, sitting up as she did. "I don't think I've ever been so sure of anything in my entire life." He paused, made a face and burst out laughing. "Sheesh; I sound like I'm proposing to you, I'm sorry." He was glad she said yes and was also a bit relieved that he wasn't the only one feeling the things he was feeling. Xander leaned closer to her and captured her lips with his own, closing his eyes as he kissed her again, moving one hand from Collins' grasp to move firmly around her tiny waist, effectively pulling her closer to him as he tilted his head to further deepen the kiss.

[Tiff]

Collins was thrilled by the things he was saying but had no time to respond to them so she just let him go ahead and kiss her. She wrapped her arms around his neck and continued to kiss him. She wanted to let her hands wander, but she couldn't, she didn't want to mess up something so perfect.

[kristay]

His fingers burned and itched to touch her and Xander's restraint broke just a bit as he slowly slid his hands up her shirt, his cool fingers lightly skimming her waist and back. He broke away briefly to gasp for breath and mutter, "Tell me to stop and I'll stop..." Before moving his mouth over hers again. For some reason Xander just couldn't get enough of Collins; she wasn't even doing anything more than usual but he found his restraint slipping and cracking in places. He just wanted her that much and it scared him.

[Tiff]

Collins stared up at him as he spoke and though she didn't want him to stop, she kept thinking that maybe he wanted to stop or that she should stop him, that she'd let him go as far as he'd allow himself and then once it was all over he'd regret it and though she knew he wouldn't blame her, she'd feel guilty for not stopping him. "Xander, if you're not ready to go farther, don't do it to impress me."

[kristay]

Xander chuckled as he kissed the tip of her nose. "I'm not trying to impress you Collins. I want you." He shook his head as he finally pulled away, knowing he'd be pinning her against him soon enough. "Too much I'm afraid." He ran a hand through his messy hair before meeting her gaze. "I dunno Collins; I lose all sense when I'm around you. I can't help but touch you and kiss you and... It's a bit frightening really.", he said with a soft chuckle.

[Tiff]

Collins searched his face. "Do you want me to tell yo to stop? Would that help?" She kept searching. "I mean I don't want to stop, I have no qualms with going further, but I will feel extremely bad if you go ahead with this and end up going against all those good guy values and morals I know you have in place."

[kristay]

Xander smoothed the crease between Collins' brow with the pad of his thumb, smiling. "Honestly? I don't know. I know I should wait, but I find myself slowly not caring about that. I'm not saying it's your fault because it isn't. I guess my brain and hormones just aren't used to being around such an amazing girl." He briefly kissed her mouth, just because it was so tempting before looking into her eyes. "I'm sorry for confusing you Collins."
