TEMPTATION
CHAPTER 4: Kiss Goodnight
Catalina’s P.O.V
I sat there on the front step under the soft, warm, hazy fall weather waiting for Taylor to come pick me up. I kept staring at the minutes on my phone hoping they would go faster.
As my mind started to wonder to all that happened yesterday, it targeted me and Harry’s strong conversation after school.
I just couldn’t get him out of my mind, he was so close and he smelled extremely good! And his eye’s they were like getting lost at sea. I was hoping that he would be at the party after I rejected him yesterday.
Just the thought brought an uneasy queasiness to the pit of my stomach, suddenly chills roller coaster over my skin; making me colder now.
*Honk, Honk*
I looked up to expect to see Taylor but no.
It was him, right there in front of my house.
I got up slowly cuffing my hands around my arms, trying to bring some warmth to them.
As I reached the car, the black tinted window slowly rolls down; revealing a green eyed, wicked smile, brown curly haired boy.
“Hop in Angel”
He turned his point of view back towards the road, as I still stood there. When he didn’t hear any sudden movement towards his car he turned to look back up at me.
“My mom told me not get in cars with strangers”
He looked at me with amusement in his eyes
“Do I have to bribe you with candy?”
“No, but you can sure as hell tell me how you know where I live?”
He turned off the car now and effortlessly climbed out, rounding to my side. He was wearing black skinny jeans, a thermal grey shirt that put in fences on his muscles and a sliver necklace that hung around his collar bone. He leaned up against the car with his arms crossed.
“What?”
“Get in the car”
“No…nope” I shook my head to prove I was definitely in denial of getting in his car.
“First you reject me…that was quiet cute love. But no you’re not even wanting to drive with me?”
“Yep”
He ran his hands threw his hair as he clenched his jaw looking at the ground searching for a response.
“You look…beautiful angel”
I looked down at my clothes, admiring what he just said.
“And I just want to escort the most beautiful lady to the party”
He tried to act coy……and it was surely working!
“Well…..” I looked down at my phone, Taylor should be here. Oh what the hell!
“Okay then” I pointed my finger at him “But no funny business”
He opened the door, with a devious smile smacked across his face. Oh why does he have to smile?

Harry’s P.O.V
We arrived at the party, sure I’ve never been to one of these but it was actually cool acting human for once in my supernatural life.
I parked the car on the curb, and then went to her side to open her door. As she climbed out, the hem of her dress eased up showing her mid-thigh. I parted my lip in gasp, than bite my lip to close my mouth and hide my expression.
We walked our way up the path, squeezing our way throught the kids who were smoking and drinking on the front step. I opened the door, and guided her in; putting my hand on the small of her back.
As we walked in, everybody gazed down to see the new people who arrived then went back to what they were doing.
“Catalina!”
I see a blonde girl walk our way, bringing cat into a full bear hug. “Girl, why weren’t you at home?”
I stepped in “Oh, I’m sorry I picked her up instead”
She looked at me like a shiny new toy, I’m pretty sure I saw her drool. “Oh…um..no, no it’s fine” she waved her hand nonchalantly
I leaned down to whisper into her ear “You want something to drink?”
She slowly nodded her head, not breaking contact with the blonde girl. I slowly made my way through the crowd of kids dancing in the middle of the floor over to the kitchen. I walked around the island counter to the punch side, and quickly filled up to cups.
I sat them down on the side counter; leaning up against the refrigerator, I whipped out my phone to send a quick text to Bobby.
Bobby:
I made it.
I looked up to eye Catalina; she was still talking to the blonde girl over by the steps.
Well…is she safe?
Yeah, I don’t see anybody
Well than, keep an eye on her….they could be anywhere
Okay
I slipped the phone back in my pocket and leveled my face back up to see Catalina holding a drink in her hand; I think they call it beer. I stood there steady concentrating hard on her thoughts, under my breath I hushed the command “Don’t drink it angel”.
She looked over at me just as I dropped my connection. She had a confused look on her face; she probably thinks she’s going mad. I picked up the drinks and made my way over to her “What’s wrong?”
She switched her face from confused to careless “Oh nothing” she grabbed the punch from my hand “I just, I don’t think I should drink this beer” she put it down, as she continued indulging in her punch.
****************
We arrived back at her house, I shook her awake. Her eye’s slowly opened grasping her surroundings.
I got out and circled to her side unlocking the door, I slipped off my jacket and place it on her. She grabbed it tighter, forming it more to her body. We walked up the steps and turned to look at each other.
“I had a lovely night Harry, I thought I wouldn’t”
I stuffed my hands in my pocket, circulating some warmth to my fingers. “Why you say that?”
“Because you’re……you know”
She looked at the ground, I leaned closer now. And lift her chin up “Are you scared of me angel?”
She shrugged her shoulders; I leaned in; looking at her for approval. Then I slowly plant a tender, soft kiss against her lips. “What about now?” she opened her eyes, looking at me like I was an angel. Ha isn’t that the understatement of the year. “No, no I’m not scared of you”
She turned around and walked into her house, I smiled as I turned around heading back to my car.

Catalina’s P.O.V
I hurried and slammed the door holy shit! I stood up slowly trying to catch my breath. Did I…..I did! I walked up the stairs to my bedroom, dropping his jacket on to my desk top chair.
I sat on my bed, slowly peeling my shoes off. His lips were so soft, but it felt so wrong. He’s probably a bad boy….I shouldn’t be messing with him. A warning sign kept blinking in my head, telling me to leave him alone.
I got up and slipped my dress off, climbing into bed. Trying to warm myself up from the cool contact of the cold sheets, I pondered myself to sleep. What does this mean for us? Am I his girlfriend and he’s my boyfriend?.......but I thought he had a girlfriend?
I got this wanting to throw up feeling in my stomach I feel like a cheater…..wow….he cheated on his girlfriend! But It felt so right at the moment.
