“His gaze softens, as if he sees right through me. The expression changes his whole face. Like this, he reminds me of a big teddy bear. His features are gentle and smooth, framed by long strands of dark blond hair, and the crinkles at the corners of his eyes make me want to reach out and brush my fingers over them.
Would he be gentle with me too? Would his large hands be soft on my skin? Or would they be rough and callused?”

“She lifts her head, her face so close that the sweetness of her breath is like a ghost of a touch hovering over my lips.
