Eilis’s silence was unnerving. The fact that she didn’t respond to his confession made Yaz scared. She’s going to leave, he thought, preparing for the worst. His body began to involuntarily shake as he tried to keep his wits about him. He had to keep it together until she left. Then he could turn into the pathetic mess he was striving to hide. With the stakes running high and seemingly against him, Yaz couldn’t bring to pull his hands from over his eyes. He felt her weight shift on the bed, heard the sheets rustle softly. His heart pounded, expecting her weight to vanish, but it didn’t. He felt the bed near him adjust to her weight before he felt her hands on his own. He let her pull his hands away from his eyes.
With some hesitation, he opened his eyes. Her face greeted him with a soft smile. The softest smile he had ever seen. Her dark eyes were gentle in their expression. He wondered at her for a moment, still uncertain and scared. When he felt her lips press gently against his, his breath caught before he returned it just as gently as he received it. Her fingers made his scalp tingle as they tangled into his hair.
Yaz shyly drew his head back from the kiss, breaking it. “I thought you were going to leave,” he admitted, his voice a little strained as he tried to keep his wits about him. He felt foolish now for even thinking such a thing – she obviously felt the same for him as he did for her – but the fear had been overwhelming.
