Hell, it pretty much made her year!  It was so rare that someone she liked, and found attractive, actually liked her back.  She was so often put in the friend category, that she'd come to expect it from every boy.<br/><br/>As Carter's lips found hers again, Chloe was struck by the sweetness of his kiss.  For all his bravado and showmanship, she got the sense that inside, he was like her - incredibly insecure.  The way his hands cradled her face, ever so gently holding her to him, the way his tongue played with hers almost nervously, the way should could feel his desire pressing into her...it was all incredibly erotic, and totally endearing.  Wrapping her arms around his hips, Chloe felt her resolve crumbling already.  She was so weak.  And she wanted him so badly.<br/><br/>Digging deep, she gently ended their kiss, and looked up into his beautiful eyes.  She kept her grip on him as reassurance that what she was about to say was in no way a reflection of her desire for him.<br/><br/>"I can't," she whispered, her eyes pleading with him to understand.  "I really like you, Carter.  More than I thought possible after just meeting someone.  You're sweet, funny, sexy as hell...." Her voice cracked a little.  "I just can't.  Not here.  Not now.  Not yet.<br/><br/>"Please understand," she almost begged, not wanting him to take her words as rejection, for nothing could be further from the truth.  "I want us to get to know each other first.  I don't just want to be a notch on your belt."
