Chapter 25: Confessions
Their kiss was chaste since they were both inexperienced, but when they pulled away, Gina felt lightheaded. Her breaths were coming out in short puffs, and it was as if she couldn't get enough air into her lungs.
There was a massive blush across her cheeks, and she pressed her face into Jason's chest to prevent him from seeing how embarrassed she was.
Jason smiled gently as he buried his nose into Gina's hair. It smelled like his shampoo, and he knew she had used all of it again. He chuckled at the thought and spoke.
"That was surprising."
Gina's hand tightened against Jason's shirt. Her blush was growing all the way to her ears, and Jason could hear the embarrassment in her voice when she spoke up again.
"So uhm... I like you, Jason."
Jason laughed.
"You know you're meant to say that before the kiss, right? Or were you trying to make sure I couldn't say no?"
Gina slammed her fist into Jason's chest angrily, and Jason laughed. If he was still the same as before, then that would have hurt like hell, but now he could barely feel it. Gina spoke up again.
"Give me an answer already! This is embarrassing!"
Jason pulled back and brought Gina's face up so he could see it. Her cheeks were bright red from a heavy blush, and she averted her eyes from him with a pout! Jason felt a sadistic pleasure shoot through him once he saw the way she was so shy at that moment. Jason always knew Gina to be tough and strong-willed, so seeing her react this way because of a confession did crazy things to him.
