Chapter 5
A few days later
They were dancing.
Kai : You're a bit stiff.
Bonnie : I can't help it.
Kai : You need to relax. Feel the music.
Bonnie : Trying to.
Kai : Get off your shoes.
Bonnie : What ?
Kai : You'll feel the steps more if you do that.
She took off her shoes and her dancing was slightly better.
Kai : he smiled Good.
His smile warmed her up. He was always so kind to her.
Bonnie : Why do you want to teach me how to dance ?
The next move brought them almost face to face. She forgot how to breathe. They looked into each other eyes for a few seconds. The song ended and they broke apart.
Kai : I think it's enough for today.
Bonnie : You didn't answer my question.
Kai : I like your company he grabbed a water bottle and sat on the floor
She sat next to him wondering what he truely meant with that.
Kai : Thirsty ?
Bonnie : Yes.
He handed her the bottle.
Bonnie : Thanks.
Their hands brushed and tingled at the touch. She tipped her head back and sipped slowly a few gulps. Kai was looking at her.
Bonnie : she put the bottle on the floor Do I have something on my face ?
Kai : No he leaned over getting closer to her
She should move away or stop him. She did none of these things. Their lips met and they shared their very first kiss. It was sweet at first but then it turned more passionate.
Bonnie : she pulled away We shouldn't...
She couldn't finish her sentence because he captured her lips again. For a few minutes they were alone in the world.
Bonnie : she pulled away again and got up No !
Kai : Bonnie...
She ran outside and didn't stop until her lungs started to burn. She leaned against a tree and closed her eyes. She could still feel his taste.
Bonnie : she put her hand on her lips Father, forgive me because I've sinned.
The next day
He was waiting for her. He had to admit he was a bit nervous. Caroline went in.
Kai : You're late. Oh, it's you.
Caroline : Sorry to disappoint you ?
Kai : It's fine.
Caroline : You were expecting someone else.
Kai : Mmmm...
Caroline : Malachai.
Kai : Fine. I was waiting for Bonnie.
Caroline : Excuse me ?
Kai : I'm just teaching her how to dance.
Caroline : I know you. I know you like dancing but I also know you have an ulterior motive.
Kai : It's almost embarrassing how well you know me.
Caroline : Just spill the beans.
Kai : I kissed her yesterday.
Caroline : Let me guess. She ran off.
Kai : Yeah.
Caroline : Seriously, what did you expect ? On a second thought, don't answer that. I already know.
Kai : I know it's wrong but I can't help myself. I am attracted to her.
Caroline understood her friend was heading towards trouble and she got worried.
