The feel of water sprinkling my face woke me up. My eyes flew open and Donvino stood above me, gloriously sweaty, his water bottle in hand. I sputtered. He gave the bottle a good squeeze. Water flew into my face. I kicked and shrieked, leaping to my feet then darting away like a stray dog with a pilfered bone with him right on my heels. I lost a flip flop. He caught up to me before I even reached the old mossy door, his longer legs giving him a speed advantage. I also might have let him catch me just a little.
His arms came around me. Off my feet I went with a squeal then he gently placed me back to the cool grass. I held onto his forearms while laughingly looking up at him.
“You’re not mad at me anymore?” I asked even though his happy face told me what I needed to know.
“I was not mad at you, Arlo,” he replied as he searched my face for something. I rose to my toes to press a kiss to his rough cheek. He turned his head into the innocent peck on the cheek, his lips meeting mine. I was shocked but only for a second. Pulling back, my lips tingling from that sweet brush, I stared into simmering dark chocolate eyes.
“Did you do that on purpose?” I had to know. He’d been so ping-pongy that I did not want to misread a simple mistake. He edged us out of the doorway, nodded just once, and then captured my head and crashed his mouth to mine. My brain stalled like an old car then suddenly fired back up with a hearty YES!!
