Lewis's POV
I didn't like the idea of Bella's game suggestion in the first place. It was called Masquerade Kiss. Similar to 7 minutes in heaven it was played like this. Everyone dresses up in ball gowns and suits (which I find quite childish) then wear masks and wigs, then the couples are randomly paired up. You are not allowed to talk and the couples begin to kiss. Then everyone removes their masks and have a laugh. I was mainly afraid that I wouldn't get Cleo and she can get very jealous. But it wouldn't matter it's just a simple kiss, right?
So that's how it began I dressed in a sharp black suit with a pressed tie. I went back into the living room and watched as the others emerged, looking hopefully for Cleo. And then I spotted a brown haired beauty. It had to have been her. She wore a long flowing pink dress, and pink is her favorite color. A smile portrayed my lips as I took her hand and we danced. It had been a long time since we'd been dancing but she still flowed around the room gracefully. And finally came the time of the kiss. I slowly pressed my lips against hers. Instead of the usual warm tingling feeling I felt very hot like sparks were flying off us. Then she touched the bottom of my lip with her tongue, asking for entrance to which I eagerly accepted. She took my hands and placed them on her waist then slowly eased them down farther and wrapped her arms around my neck. Cleo had never kissed like this before, but I wasn't complaining. Perhaps in a mask she felt more comfortable.
It was then I noticed that it everyone else had finished and we were still making out. Suddenly I heard her voice, "Lewis!" It was Cleo and she sounded aggravated. I came to the realization that I wasn't kissing Cleo but someone else. I was a dead man. I quickly threw off my mask and reached for the girl's who I had been kissing. Rikki! It was Rikki!? However, I wasn't feeling disappointed that it wasn't Cleo. Weird right? I'm such a terrible boyfriend. But that kiss was nothing like I ever felt with Cleo. Is that what real love feels like?
"Cleo! I know how this looks but-"
"Don't just don't, I don't want to hear it!" She screamed and ran outside. She looked really hurt and really upset. Rikki quickly went over to the gaping Zane and I went after Cleo.
"Cleo I'm sorry, please just listen." I tried.
"No!" She said and sat down on the dock crossing her arms.
"The only reason I kept kissing her was because I thought it was you and I was wondering why I felt no spark!" I blurted out, even though it was a big lie. I had felt spark. More than I had ever felt with anyone else even Cleo. But I had to tell her something and the truth was not an option. She looked over at me with softer eyes.
"Really?"
"Yes" I said smiling then leaned into kiss her. Our lips touched and for the first time I felt nothing. I wished that we could kiss and feel like I did with Rikki. I really did, but that wasn't the case. After that we walked hand in hand back inside. Cleo kissed me again and again and every time I wished it was Rikki. I looked back over to her where she sat awkwardly next to Zane. I gave her an uneasy look of nervousness, but Rikki only shrugged. I guess we'd never know what if.
A/N: Just so you all know this is a one-shot there will be no continuation but I will write other fics with Lewis/Rikki so look for em! Thanks!
