I Hate That I Love You
Chapter 1
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Carly's POV
I started to panic when I heard the world start to count down from 10.
"10... 9... 8..."
I looked around for my best friend, Blair Bradley, but she was no where to be found. All I saw was her parents and her boyfriend's - Aiden Chambers - parents.
The pang of loneliness hit me.
Since my parents were always away, I spent most of my holidays with her family. So here I was, on New Years Eve, watching Time Square on the Bradley's flat screen TV as the yearly ball started to drop.
"7... 6... 5..."
What do I do now?
I guess I kiss myself. No big deal. Lifting my elbow, I got ready to make out with the curve of my hand.
"4... 3... 2..."
My heart dropped as I was whipped around and crushed against a hard body. I didn't have time to scream because lips crashed down on mine in a rough manner. My eyes automatically fluttered closed as I felt the kiss.
It started out as a peck but I felt his tongue licking my lips, demanding them to open. As soon as I made a gap, his tongue swooped in and played with mine. He tasted of sweet wine and I was addicted.
I didn't even hear the loud cheers coming from the television and the adults in the house. I didn't hear anything, see anything, or feel anything but this kiss. It was the first time that someone's kiss had me electrified and hungry for more.
My hands were placed on his chest and I thought his heart was going to pound right through them. His hands were tangled through my hair, holding my head in place as he kissed me senseless.
I felt my knees go weak and felt myself start to slip away. Quickly, his arm went around my waist and steadied me. This also caused us to come together even closer and I gasped at the sudden heat that vibrated from him.
It all ended too soon. One second, I was having the greatest kiss of my life, the next, those sweet lips were pried away from me.
Ready to see who my prince charming was, I opened my eyes... And gasped.
Blake Bradley?

Blake's POV
I wasn't planning on doing it, I really wasn't. But the idiot lifted her hand as if that was going to be her New Year's kiss.
I had to save her.
"4... 3... 2..."
Agh, shit.
Not knowing what got over me, I took two long strides towards Carly West. I grabbed her arm and whipped her around. I didn't waste any more time, I planted a big one right on her lips.
I came to her with a plan; a quick kiss. Then I got a wift of her flowery scent and I think that's what bewitched me.
Not even the jaws of life could pry me away from Carly's soft, supple lips. I traced her lips with my tongue, asking for permission to enter. Right when her lips parted, I guided my tongue past them and searched for hers.
Carly tasted so sweet, like honey. Her lips tasted like strawberries and I lightly nipped at them, sucking them into my mouth.
I kept telling myself that I needed to pull away, but I couldn't. My mind had gone blank, I couldn't help myself.
