Kiss Me Not

Brione rushed out of her room and the entire scene of that night started playing in her mind vividly. Gavin had written what happened that night, every dialogue between the two of them in his journal so she could imagine each and everything as a clear picture.

This was the ray of hope she was looking forward to. She scolded herself for not thinking about it before! She bit her lip and her heart was pounding against her chest as she was making her way to Cedric's room. She was very nervous thinking about what could happen… Would she be able to do it? Kiss Cedric?

-Gavin's Journal-

"This is the best night of my life because the most important woman in my life gave me her first kiss. She was never able to kiss anyone because of her phobia and I am really happy as I'm about to write a long and detailed scene on how it happened. This is very embarrassing but I don't want to forget a single detail so I will write it like how I write the scenes in my books.

I'm on cloud nine as I'm writing this while sitting on a chair beside Brione's bed. I look at her once in a while, admiring the beauty of the woman I love and will always love for eternity…

I am too excited so I will start writing about the important and memorable moment in my life so far!"

"I really don't understand why I can't bring myself to kiss anyone! I'm dying to have that project. I desperately want to act in that movie but I failed the audition because of a kissing scene... simply because of that damn kissing scene!" she complained as she took another sip from the bottle.

Gavin sighed helplessly as he eyed the empty bottles of vodka on the table.

His lips curved into a roguish grin as he teased, "I guess kissing scenes are just not meant for you. Especially with other men..."

His eyes sparkled involuntarily while gazing at Brione's beauty. In his eyes, her beauty was beyond comparison… Her beauty was the epitome of the saying 'a beauty that could start a war between countries'.

Those long curly eyelashes, cat-eye-shaped eyes, prominent eyebrows, pointed nose, and heart-shaped lips…They were all perfectly sculpted for her oval face. His favorite part was her heart-shaped lips that were naturally red tempting him to kiss them every second.

Gavin inhaled loudly as if gathering some strength before he courageously whispered, "Have you heard of the love story of the sun and the moon? They say that the sun loved the moon so much that he died every night just to let her shine."

Opening her eyes, she commented, "Hmm… the sun is too stupid then…" before drinking another gulp of vodka directly from the bottle.

He chuckled, pinched her nose, and whispered, "Are you saying I'm too stupid? Because I'm the sun and you're my moon… that is how much I love you..."

Her eyebrow furrowed but a mischievous smile appeared on her face as she moved closer to him and playfully whispered, "Kiss me then. Let's see if the love you offer can help me overcome my philemaphobia."

He could smell the alcohol in her breath when she spoke so close to his face. He shook his head and firmly answered, "No, I won't!"

He wanted to add that he would only kiss her when she was sober but she ignored him. She leaned closer to him until there was only a finger's gap between them before she declared with a wink, "Yes you will."

He suddenly felt her lips landing on his. It was so soft and delicate that his instincts overpowered him and he subconsciously started kissing her back earnestly and passionately.

She was a sloppy kisser, kissing him without any direction… moving her lips here and there, sucking and licking...

She paused after a while and her eyes widened as she stared at him in disbelief. He gulped as the realization was striking him. He opened his mouth to say something but she cupped his face and pulled him again for another kiss.

"It tastes like candy…" she unknowingly murmured in between their kisses. She has always liked the taste of candy so she continued licking and sucking.

"Tasty… Hmmm…" she moaned.

He managed to pull out of the kiss because if he didn't, he was afraid that he would lose control and do more. Taking advantage of her, especially when she was drunk was the last thing he wanted to do.

"Are you drunk?" he questioned looking at her watery eyes intently.

"Yes, I am but who cares! How come I can kiss you huh? Your lips taste like candy! Let's kiss once more!" she blabbered everything in one breath before she felt her head spinning around, making her lose consciousness.

He was quick to catch her and whispered, "Will you remember this time when you wake up tomorrow?"

He let out a deep sigh as he wrapped her in his arms. He wanted to confess to her but he lacked the courage to do it. He could only do it whenever she got drunk but unfortunately, she would always forget it once she woke up.

He wondered if there would ever be a time in the future where he could be aggressive and do the things he wanted to do without hesitation…. Without having to consider the friendship they had since childhood. He was hiding all his emotions from her. His mind and body felt like a ticking bomb ready to explode at any given moment and show the real him that he wanted her to see.

Brione snapped out of her thoughts when she reached Cedric's door. She filled her lungs with air and then exhaled loudly. She raised her hand and pressed the doorbell.

"You can do this Brione! Bring him back to you!" she cheered herself, filling her head with positivity and courage!
