I pulled out of the kiss, smiling and looking her in the eyes. "No buts."
I let go of her shoulders, and she stood there for a while, taking in everything that had just happened.
Then, before I knew it, she stood up, grabbed the back of my neck, and pulled me into her own kiss. My eyes were the ones to widen this time, and as she pulled out and let me go, she had a mischievous smile on her face and a bright glimmer in her eye.
"Well, if that's the case, then you know exactly what you're getting into, so I shouldn't have to warn you about what kind of girl you've fallen in love with."
I smiled back at her. "Nope. No warnings. I'm ready for whatever you have to throw at me."
This time, we both leaned in together, for one more kiss.
