Season 2

Chapter 11 : Kiss Ends! Denial On!
(Lily's POV)

Waaaaahhhhh! WH-WHAT'S happening?! I-s Dominic k-i-s-s-i-n-g m-me?! Maybe I'm dreaming this and just going to wake up by my mum's yelling.

But I can feel pair of slightly rough lips on mine. This is too much to take😣😵. My knees shook slightly and I lean on him to keep my balance.

Dominic slowly pull away from me and I almost whine out in slight disappointment. WHAT'S WRONG WITH ME!!! I felt a sudden rush of heat in face, ear and neck.

I dare to peek at Dominic after calming my racing heart and controlling my breath. His face is blank as usual but I swear there's a slight pink of hue covering his cheeks.

I guess Mr. Devil can get fluster too. This proves he's a human too hah! But why did he kiss me out of sudden?! And that was my first kiss though I'm feeling only relieve.

Dominic finally has the decency to look at me(or look down), Humph! He open his mouth but close it. His expression looks trouble. He press his lips and blurt out instead.

"That man was being troublesome. I just kiss you to make him get lost. Think nothing of it", Dominic said in his usual dry tone. I feel a slight ting of disappointment.

I look across the road and indeed that man was not standing there anymore. "Thank you", I squeak out and try not to glance at him. We stood there for what feel like an eternity.

"We should get going. It's getting colder and my apartment is just 2 blocks away", Dominic said looking down in front of his black boots.

I shiver out when a gust of wind hit on my slightly exposed neck. Trembling my fingers press into my jackets coller in hopes of covering as much.

I jump away when something warm is shoves right in my face. I grab the thing and pull it away from me. I blink over a grey woolen scarf with D initials on it.

"Here... it'll be annoying if you caught a cold", Dominic said not meeting my curious eyes. We start walking down the sidewalk, a reasonable distance between us.

I've this sudden urge to hold his hand. What's wrong with me?! Dominic is MY FRIEND. I shouldn't have these feelings for him.

I mean I already have a boyfriend! Only couples hold hands, kiss and do stuffs. I try to tell myself that but my heart starts racing whenever I peek at Dominic.

(Dominic's POV)

Ahhh...I know Lily is secretly taking glances at me time to time. I don't think this girl know the meaning of being secretive. Still I didn't dare to turn towards her.

She must be very confuse and hurt. I stole her first kiss after all. How did I know? Maybe a bit of Bethenny and stalking or both? Not going to say anything further.

I silently open my apartment door and...left it open for her. Damn I should say something anything to break this overwhelming silence.

But I've never deal with situation like this. I don't know what to say to make things better. "Go ahead and sit over the coach. You can open tv or do anything.

I've something to deal". I walk away without waiting for her reply. Wow Dominic smooth, very smooth! I just wish to hit my head for such a lame excuse.

I enter the kitchen to start on dinner. I doubt any service line might be working for take out. Besides it will be nice distraction away from weird thoughts.

I look up at the sound of something hitting. It's coming from windows which are getting hit by strong winds. The weather is getting worst.

Looks like we're going to have blizzard tonight. I don't think it'll be good idea for Lily to go home. That's mean she has to stay here for tonight.

Damn the guest room is a total mess as I never have any one to begin with. I can't ask Lily to sleep with me! That will make me sound like a pervert.

Ahhh I have to crash on coach tonight. Thank goodness I bought a huge coah or my body would have been sour the next day. First I'm going to make instant noodles.

"Dominic, do you need some help? You're cooking dinner, right?" My object of distraction said from the doorway. Great some alone time was I wishing for!

"No I'm making noodles. Is that ok with you?" I ask her though I'm already pouring water in the pan. "Yeh... sounds good. Umm I... I think I have to stay here for tonight.

My mum called me. She told me it's dangerous to go out because of bad weather. I should stay at my friends house. Is it ok? Sorry I didn't ask you first before telling her.

Is it ok?" She said cutely rubbing her eyes. I just nod my head not trusting my mouth to spout something embarrassing. I still felt her eyes on me.

Is she not going to head back to the living room? Lily ends up helping me stirring the soup while I cut some veggies to go with noodles. I'm not trusting her with a knife.

I can already imagine a very long night waiting for me. I don't know if I can sleep with a girl in my house for the first time. Damn! Stupid brain stop thinking rubbish!
