Five drabbles that all involve some kind of kiss. Some may be tied in with canon (what officially happened in the show) and some not. It should also be noted that I've only seen up to season seven, so, as I said, they might not be canon.

Anyway, even if some pairings are not your favorite (in fact, I only have two true favorites, so I challenged myself here), these are moments that I have envisioned happening nonetheless. Now, please enjoy. :)


Bond

She'd often thought that time spent in solitude, which was so hard to come by and always seemed so desirable from the outside, was the very remedy for releasing herself from the drama in her life. A life not unlike a tumultuous sea in which the sudden gusts of wind blew her this way and that, trying to stay afloat, bobbing up and down, up and down...

A tear escaped down her cheek as the emotions she'd felt much earlier – had it been a week already? – crept into her consciousness yet again. Elation, anxiety, shock, and finally grief.

Sitting in front of the apartment, watching a blur of seemingly carefree people passing by, laughing, running, shouting, Kelly felt the all-too-familiar twinge of her heart. She thought of her mother. And hated her a bit.

How, she thought, could anyone deny the birth of a child? Whose right, other than that of the life growing inside of its mother, was it to simply end a lifetime of joys, pains, accomplishments, and love before it had even begun? Seven days ago, she was going to become the mother of Brandon's son or daughter. Six days ago, they told her she would no longer be that mother, and may never be again. She knew that she was thinking irrationally, but God, life was cruel.

Another tear formed and soon the cheery passers-by morphed into hazy streaks of color, flitting by in their separate world.

Suddenly, a particularly large blur obscured her view and she wiped her eyes.

"For a second there, I was afraid you weren't gonna notice me."

"Hey," she said softly, forcing a small smile at the usual boyish charm.

"I, uh..." Brandon unconsciously put a hand behind his neck, trying to think of an excuse for showing up unexpectedly. "I just thought I'd stop by to..."

"To see how I was doing?" Kelly offered.

"Well, now that you mention it." He gave a small grin.

The silence that followed was more than enough of a hint as to how she was feeling.

Brandon sat at the end of Kelly's beach chair and searched her glistening eyes.

Kelly was well aware of the redness around her eyes and the continuous sounds of her sniffling, but she couldn't have cared less. Brandon wasn't one of those guys who would offer an awkward pat on the back or try to lighten the mood simply with a cheesy joke because he felt uncomfortable.

"We almost had a child." Her whisper was nearly inaudible. That mantra had played like a broken record over and over in her mind. Over and over and over...

She couldn't tell if he already knew what she was thinking. It had been a week, after all. Yet, here she was, still lamenting the same song.

"For a moment," she continued, trying to wipe away the cascading teardrops, "I really believed... that it would all happen, you know? That it was real." She knew she had told all of this to Brandon before. She didn't care.

Slowly, Brandon raised his fingers to her smooth, still face and began wiping away the tears with his thumb. "It was real, Kel. That's a moment that... that we'll always have. One I wouldn't change for anything... or anyone else."

His voice was reassuring, unwavering. Yes. A good moment. A good memory. She grappled at her messy thoughts and tried to piece them back together. She wanted to see things differently.

Without awkwardness or uncertainty in his movements, Brandon leaned forward and gently, ever so gently, kissed away the few droplets still embracing her skin.

Closing her eyes, Kelly allowed her mind to drift, to float like the people passing by.

They had almost had a child. That knowledge would never leave her. But instead of inciting that harrowing pain, she could at least breathe more easily, if only to keep herself from choking on her own tears, knowing that there was at least one person who would give her the whole world just so she could see happiness once again.
