=Affectionate=

It's like, time stopped. I could no longer hear the calm flow of the water in the

river's trail. The crickets seemed to finally stop making those noises I hate so much but is

something relaxing. My face was shadowed now as the back of his head blocked the

moonlight and the fire's light. I could feel his hands landing gently against my hips then

slowly moving up to my waist as he pulled me close. I don't even know whether or not

I'm leaning against the tree anymore or what. I did not know anything anymore! And

what is this?! My eyes finally focused as I see his eye... it wasn't fully close yet! My

eyes widen as I feel a burning sensation of my cheek. Is he watching me?! His lips moved

slowly, massaging against mine. They were warm and soft...

"Hn..." I sighed softly in contentment as my eyes started to close.... NO! No

wait! Don't do that! Stop! What are you doing, Moonbay?! Snap out of it! My mind is

telling me one thing... but my lips is telling me another.

I leaned my head back and he supported it with one hand. The curves of my body

perfectly fist against his as he trapped me. There's nowhere to run. I could feel his lips

curve into a playful smile because we both know that he won. I was so lost... so... I

don't know, I can't really explain. There's this weird sensation in my stomach. I don't

know whether to start giggling or what because trust me, the feeling was weird. Ever

heard of the expression "Butterflies in your stomach" well, trust me, it's true. Well, you

may ask "How could you feel butterflies in your stomach?" Look, just trust me in this,

it's you. You can't explain it but when you get it, that's the only time you'll understand it

fully.

I felt a sudden rush of cold water wash over me as I felt him trying to do

something! W-why is he....?! What is he...?! I could feel his mouth open, trying to find

a gap between my lips. He leaned my head back a little bit more and started rubbing my

back... as a sign of 'it's okay' maybe? A sign of reassurance? I, very slowly, parted my

lips as a thousand thoughts crossed my mind.

"Is this only a spare of the moment for him?"

"What am I suppose to do when... well, you know... when he actually started making out

with me?! I don't know what to do! Do I go like this? Or maybe like this?"

"Is this lust or pure affection?"

"Why is he showing this side of him now?"

Then it shot me like a gun pointed in my head. We're alone... that is why. We're

always around Van and them that... that we don't really get to talk or get the chance to

hang out by ourselves. We never really took time to know how each other feels. Well, not

like there's anything between us before this.

I could feel his presence around much stronger now than ever before. I actually

saw him fully as a man... not just a part of our team or a friend but... a man. I could feel

his strong-arms around me... his nice, lean chest against mine. His warm tongue softly

entered my mouth. I think he could feel my nervousness so he tried so hard to be as

gentle as he can... well, either he noticed my nervously or he could hear my heart leaping

out of my chest! I blanked out for a while then I noticed... it wasn't so bad. Both our

tongues stroke one another softly, kinda playfully. I could feel him fighting the urge to let

all his emotion go. He tried to remain gentle, soft. Then, the next thing I knew, his left

my mouth and started leaving a trail of kisses from the corner of my lips down to my

neck. I gasped for air; one, I haven't got a breath while we were kissing and second, the

soft trails of his lips brushing against my skin just made me gasp for air. It's tingly... it's

like, I could feel electricity o every part of my being whenever his lips land a soft kiss on

any spot of my body. I unconsciously arched myself up as if... asking for more? Wanting

for more? Yearning for more?

He stopped his trail right in the middle of the side of my neck. Why stop now?! A

look of disappointment crossed my features. Why is he stopping now?

"I've been waiting for this for so long..." Irvine finally spoke in a somewhat

hoarse voice. My eyes widened as he cleared his throat weakly. He could not fight his

passion burning inside of him and the desire to be close to me. "All those times...

looking at you from a far... watching you... finally, I was given a chance..." I could feel

him move close against the side of my face, his lips softly brushing on the side of my ear.

He's been watching me...? All this time?! I could feel his breathing, calm and serene,

against my ear. "Now, we're all alone... no one will be able to bother us anymore."

"W-what do you..." then I could feel his lips part, kissing the part of my neck

where he had stopped before. I could feel him starting to suck on it softly. The area that

was occupied by his mouth started to feel warm. I've always been disgusted by hickies. I

thought that they were a very disgusting act of expressing your affection for someone.

But, I guess I shouldn't have thought that since I haven't experienced it... because you

know why? I sorta... like it now.

Ooooo!!!! Hehe, sorry if this is a... erm... too intense chapter. Just, well, you know,

trying to spice things up a bit! Don't worry, I won't go too far. I'll keep it appropriate!
