"We shouldn't be doing this, Zakir. It's wrong. We can't be that close," I breathed out.
"Do you care about me?" he asked quietly as he cornered me against the counter. His voice got deeper, his breathing heavy.
"Of course I do. You are a close friend. Now move away from me. This is temptation. Don't give in to shaytan's (satan) whispers. Move away," I whispered.
My heart was drumming against my chest. He was making me feel tingles all over my body. My body started aching from the electric shocks. His breath fanning over my face. I wanted him to hold me, to touch me, to kiss me. I wanted him to whisper sweet nothings into my ear. I felt my knees wobble but held myself against the counter. He was so close to me, yet so far.
"I need you," he whispered into my ear.
