With her eyes closed, Xiu felt the world stop. As if the background noises vanished into oblivion and the only sound she could hear was her own heartbeat and the sound of his breathing. Adding on the presence of his hands on her waist and his lips on hers, Xiu's world was set ablaze. Oddly, she was the person who was happy seeing her world burning down.
The butterflies in her stomach when he nibbled on her lips were real. It wasn't just a fantasy for her, she actually felt what it meant to have butterflies wreaking havoc in one's stomach. That tingly sensation was traveling from the tip of her toes to the nerves of her brain. It felt too good to be real.
