Her cheeks flushed even deeper at his words, and she ducked her head sheepishly. "T-thank you... I'm sorry if that makes things weird between us..." She glanced up at him through her lashes, searching for any signs of regret or disapproval.

"No, not at all," he assured her with a gentle smile. "I don't mind." He paused for a moment before leaning in to press his lips against hers once more, this time slowly and tenderly.

Her eyes fluttered shut as their lips met again, her body melting into his touch. She savored the feel of him against her, reveling in this newfound closeness they shared. With each kiss and caress, she felt more confident and desired; like she was finally becoming the person she'd always wanted to be. As he deepened the kiss, she moaned softly into his mouth, arching further into him, desperate for more.
