„Read between the lines." And then I started to lean in. When I felt her lips responding to my kiss I was ecstatic. It felt so good especially because I had doubted that she liked me like that. Then she pulled away, started panicking. I tried to not show her my disappointment and get to sleep. Thankfully the day had been exhausting enough so I could fall asleep easily.
Later when we were back at the house I sat there, eying the destruction around me and felt miserable. Why did she respond to the kiss? Did this mean I at least crossed her mind in a not-brotherly way? Where I such a bad kisser that she had to panic?
Only after we where at the police and Fly told them and me about the dream I started to understand her reactions better. It wasn't necessarily my kissing abilities or me as a person that made her pull back. No. It was all too much at once, her starting to think about me as a potential boyfriend, me telling her that I could picture her as my girlfriend. But did she really like the kiss? Was it as satisfying for her as it was – in retrospective- for me? Only one way to find out.
I asked her. And I liked what I heard, this did seem promising. Of course, she'll need time; I can't rush her into anything. But I know this will develop further. I can wait because Fly is definitively worth it.
