Part 2: The Blackout

You make me feel out of my element
Like I'm walkin' on broken glass
Like my worlds spinnin' in slow motion
And you're movin' too fast

2004- Kira's House

"Conner…" He was the last person she expected to see standing outside her door soaking wet. Kira was hoping to have a relaxing night without having to deal with him. But something inside her made her feel different at this moment.

Kira gazed at Conner's wet figure and noticed how incredibly hot he looked right now. 'Holy crap! I did not just say hot! I think Conner's hot? What is wrong with me?'

Kira shook the thought out of her head. When she looked back at Conner, a drop of rain trickled down the side of Conner's face. Oh. My. God. Kira's body melted at that moment. She regained her composure and smiled softly at Conner.

"Kira, are you going to let me in or are you going to keep smiling at me?" asked Conner who was starting to shiver.

"Oh, right…sorry." Kira said quickly. She let Conner in and closed the door. Kira ran upstairs to grab Conner a towel and some dry clothes. When she came back down, Kira saw Conner taking off his shirt and laying it down on the table. "Oh wow…" Kira muttered quietly.

Kira couldn't believe how well-toned Conner was. She watched as rainwater trickled down his chest and abs. She gulped nervously and couldn't break the trance she was under. 'Conner is…so…wow…hot. Why does he make me feel this way?'

Kira snapped back to reality when Conner called out her name. She smiled nervously and walked over to him. She handed him the towel and the dry clothes. "Thanks, Kira." said Conner.

"You're welcome. If you want, the bathroom is…um, upstairs on your left. So you can change. Here's the flashlight if you need it." Kira explained as she handed Conner the flashlight.

Conner nodded and headed upstairs to the bathroom. Kira sat down on the couch and groaned. She needed to control herself around Conner. It's already hard enough with him here.

Were you right, was I wrong
Were you weak, was I strong, yeah
Both of us broken
Caught in a moment

'You are in deep, Kira."

'Like I didn't know that already!'

'Just trying to help.'

'Well, don't. This whole thing is too complicated.'

'Maybe it's time for you to admit that you are in love with him. It would make things less complicated.'

'No, I can't. I can't admit that I'm in love with him. It's just too hard.'

'You can't or you won't, Kira. You've know him for a long time and he has changed a lot. No matter what happens, he'll still be the same Conner you know and love. You just need to give him a chance.'

'I know. It's just that I'm…scared.'

'Scared? Scared of what?'

'I'm scared of getting hurt and that I'll lose him as a friend.'

'You should know that's the one thing Conner will never let happen to you. He cares about you way too much. Losing will be like losing a part of him.'

'Just like losing him will be like losing a part of me. And that's why I can't admit that I'm in love with him.'

'Then, you're already losing him, Kira.'

'I know.'

Kira couldn't believe what she was thinking. Of course losing Conner as a friend would kill her, but as long as she didn't tell Conner how she felt everything would be all right. How wrong was she? Kira pushed away her thoughts and looked over at the photo albums.

Kira walked over to her photo albums and pulled out one of them. On the front of it, it said 'Kira and Conner'. "I wonder why Mom has this…" Kira murmured. She opened it and saw a picture of her and Conner at age 3 playing with a sprinkler.

0o0o0o0o0o0o0

We lived and we loved
And we hurt and we jumped, yeah

0o0o0o0o0o0o0

Conner dried his hair with the towel as he walked downstairs. He looked up to see Kira on the couch looking through an old photo album. He walked over and sat down beside her.

"So whatcha lookin at?" asked Conner.

"Just looking at old photos of us." said Kira.

"How did your mom get old photos of us?" asked Conner.

'That's what I'm wondering…' thought Kira. "I'm not sure. Maybe she got some from your mom."

"Yeah, maybe…" They continued looking until Conner noticed one picture that seemed familiar to him. "Now I haven't seen that picture in a while."

"What do you mean?" asked Kira.

"Your mom took that picture of us right after we…" Conner began to explain.

"After we what?" asked Kira.

"After we kissed for the first time…" Conner replied.

Kira looked up at him and caught him looking back at her. There was a silent connection that neither one of them broke.

0o0o0o0o0o0o0

But the planets all aligned
When you looked into my eyes
And just like that
The chemicals react
The chemicals react

0o0o0o0o0o0o0

At that moment, Kira began to remember that day. She was upset and Conner came over to help make her feel better, which he did. They talked and laughed, and it seemed Kira became happier. Then, Conner asked if he could kiss her. Kira said yes, and Conner kissed her softly on the lips. It was moment she would cherish for the rest of her life.

She couldn't believe she forgot about it. Her first real kiss. Oh how much she wished she could do it again. But she couldn't do it. Here she had her chance to kiss the same boy who kissed when they were 10, and she couldn't do it. Kira looked away and broke the connection.

Conner had no idea what just happened but shrugged it off. They continued looking at more pictures in the album.

When Kira went to change the page, Conner went at the same time to change the page and their hands met. A warm sensation went through Kira's body when she felt Conner's touch. She looked back up at him and the connection came back stronger than ever.

"Kira, can I kiss you?" asked Conner

"Yes…"

0o0o0o0o0o0o0

Maybe it's intuition
But some things you just don't question
Like in your eyes
I see my future in an instant
and there it goes
I think I've found my best friend
I know that it might sound more than
a little crazy but I believe

0o0o0o0o0o0o0

Conner leaned down and gently kissed Kira. Kira's senses went crazy and she deepened the kiss. Conner hadn't expected Kira to kiss him back but it didn't matter now.

Kira sat up and straddled Conner around his waist as they continued to kiss. Conner left her mouth and began kissing her neck. A moan escaped Kira's mouth as Conner kept kissing her neck. She latched onto Conner's hair and let out another moan.

Kira ran her hands down his back and his chest. When she reached the rim of his red shirt, she slipped her hands under and roamed around his chiseled abs. Conner like the feel of Kira's hands touching him. Kira slipped her hands out front and grabbed the rim of his shirt. She pulled it off him and stared at his glorious abs and chest.

"Like what you see?" Kira nodded. Conner kissed her softly again as his hands went down to the rim of her shirt. He slipped his hands under her shirt and began to gently rub her stomach. Kira could feel the heat rising, making her want Conner more. Conner slipped off Kira's shirt without breaking the kiss.

They broke the kiss and leaned their foreheads against each other. Kira didn't want to stop. "Conner, don't stop…"

"Are you sure?"

Kira nodded and kissed Conner again. The rest of the night they made sweet love to each other without a doubt in their minds.

The next morning

Kira woke up with a smile on her face. She saw Conner's handsome face smiling back down at her. He was holding a yellow rose in his hand. Last night was incredible and Kira didn't regret any of it. "Good morning, handsome."

"Good morning, beautiful. How are you feeling?" Conner asked.

"Better than I ever felt before. I'm glad that it was with you and no one else." Kira smiled happily.

"Good. I'm glad." Conner leaned down and kissed her softly. He took the yellow rose in his hand and gently glided it down Kira's bare back. Kira softly moaned.

"That feels good…"

Conner smiled and replaced the rose with butterfly kisses down her back. Kira giggled softly. She has never felt this happy with anyone for a long time. She loved the way Conner made her feel. He was the only one who could make her feel this way. But one question remained. Was all of this because she loves Conner or was it all just a one time deal? She didn't know. What she did know is that she wanted to spend the rest of her weekend with Conner.
