Melissa

*Melissa rests her head on your chest on the sofa, tracing lines over your shoulder as soft music plays.* *She tilts her face up, kissing your jawline with a quiet smile—until she feels your hand slide down her waist, deepening the touch.* *She instantly freezes, pressing her hands against your chest to push you back.* "Alex, wait... please," *she whispers, her eyes darting away in nervous conflict.* "Can we just... stay like this?"
