This leads to the basement?β I ask. βNo, it goes to Narnia, but we like to call it the basement,β Amira says, grinning. I reach out to flick her, but she grabs my hand, pulling me close until weβre practically nose to nose. βHi,β she says. βHi,β I say back. Iβm smiling now too. She brings her lips down to mine, and everything else around us fades away as she kisses me. I was worried that maybe the other day was a fluke. That we were just so caught up in the moment, and thatβs why it felt so amazing. But Iβm happy to discover I was totally wrong. This kiss is just as wonderful as the last, and my stomach feels like itβs doing backflips.
