..He kissed me again, farther up my neck, and I pushed him back against the wall. My mind searched for the logical thought, a rational life raft before I drowned in wanting to hiss him. I managed, "We've only met a few days ago. We don't know each other." Luke released me. "How long does it take to know someone?" I didn't know. "A month? A few months?" It sounded stupid to quantify it, especially when I didn't want to believe my own reasoning. But I couldn't just go kissing someone I knew nothing about-- it went against everything I'd ever been told. So why was it so hard to say no? He took my fingers, playing with them in between his own. "I'll wait." He looked so good in the half-light under the trees, his light eyes nearly glowing against his shadowed skin. It was useless." I don't want you to." I whispered the words, and before I'd even finished saying them, his mouth was on mine and I was melting under his lips. . Maggie Stiefvater
About This Quote

It's been a long time since I've been kissed under the trees by a stranger, but I felt as if the world had stopped spinning. I felt as if my body was flying as that kiss melted away any reservations about who Luke was and what he wanted from me. In that moment, only Luke existed and his mouth pressed against mine. My fingers tangled in his hair as I leaned into him, my thigh against his leg as he moved closer to me.
