Whirlwind

Jessica's POV:

His question hit me like a ton of bricks and I really wasn't expecting that. I instantly knew the answer but there was something holding me back. I stared in to his eyes and my heart melted.

His expression and body language was crying out to me and I knew I needed to give him an answer. I had been so hurt in the past and I had always said I would take things slow from now on, but on the other hand I had always been one to trust my gut instincts - and they were telling me not to hold back.

I took a deep breath and gathered the words in my head - for once I was actually thinking before speaking!
"You're an amazing person Harry and I feel like I have known you for years. This is completely new to me, I am quite a private person and would never have imagined I'd ever be in this situation."

His eyes fell from my gaze and disappointment spread across his face.
"But I've never been one to ignore my feelings or not push myself out of my comfort zone. I'm not overly crazy about the attention or the fact my life may be more public than I ever thought it would be however I think the positives will definitely outweigh the negatives."

His eyes instantly met mine and his expression changed dramatically. It was a mixture of shock, relief and excitement. Before I had the chance to say another word, he pulled me towards him and wrapped his arms around my neck.
"You do not know how happy you have just made me."

His words sent shivers down my spine and I suddenly had an overwhelming urge to kiss him.

Harry's POV:

I am literally the luckiest guy alive. I really thought Jess was going to tell me she wasn't interested and I was preparing myself for the rejection. This couldn't have turned out any better.

I'm not one to usually rush in to anything either, but there was something about Jessica. I reluctantly pulled myself out of her embrace and met her gaze once again. She was so beautiful. I moved the stray strands of hair away from her face and let my fingers caress her cheek. Her skin was so soft to touch - and I knew I just had to kiss her. I slowly lifted her chin and brought her lips to mine. I gently pressed my lips against hers - wanting to savour every moment. Our lips seemed to be in sync with each other; moving, tasting and teasing each other.

As we both pulled away I felt like I needed to catch my breath. I have never had a kiss so intense and I knew I wanted more. I wanted Jessica to be mine.
