He lowered his head to mine, kissing me with gentle tenderness, moving along my jaw and down my neck. The same as I had done to him. He rose up, straddling my waist, pulling me up by my shirt.

It's ok to hate what you've written.
It's more important to get words on the page and weed out what you don't like so you can create something better.
I'll be working on rewriting this whole section tonight.
Just remember that you GOT this and your book will be amazing.
