She had never felt so comfortable with a man before. She had waited for the anxiety to kick in when she found out that Luke was into her, but it never did. The way he looked at her made her feel cherished and beautiful. And the way he kissed her, oh. His kisses were all-consuming and quite literally, left her without breath. As the band finished its final number, she turned back to Luke for another soft kiss. “I guess it's time to go.” He nuzzled her cheek for a moment then started for the door, her hand snugly in his. As she gave him directions to her apartment, she contemplated asking him in. She recalled the heated conversation between Luke and his father and realized that he most likely didn't have anywhere to go tonight. He was able to find a spot close to the building and walked her to the door. “Luke?” “Hmm?” he asked as he tucked his face into her neck. “I couldn't help overhearing some of your conversation with your father earlier. Do you want to stay here tonight?”
