4. Cheek Kiss: A friendly, "I really like you" kiss. Often the preferred kissing method of a first date. With your hands on your partner's shoulders, gently brush your lips across her cheek.
Elijah x Arista
The two friends walked up to the girl's house in a comfortable silence.
"Thank you for taking me out for dinner," Arista said.
"It was nothing," Elijah replied back.
"I mean it, Cheesecake Factory can be pretty pricey."
He smiled at her, "I don't mind, really."
They continued to walk together in the warm Texas air.
"I'm sorry I couldn't get my car fixed in time to drive us to the restaurant."
"It's okay," she looked up at the moon and the stars, "Perfect time for star gazing."
Time passed an a comfortable silence filled the air. Arista smiled to herself knowing that her and Elijah were such good friends that they didn't feel awkward when there was nothing to talk about. When the pair finally walked up to the girl's uncle's home, they grinned at eachother.
"Thanks, again, Eli."
"Anytime, Alice."
The girl reached into her hoodie pocket to grab her house keys.
"Alice?" Elijah called.
She turned her head to respond when he gripped her shoulders.
"Eli, something you want to say?"
Ever so slowly, the male pressed his lips against his friend's cheek. The affectionate gesture led to the trilingual teen's cheeks turning a light pink, barely visible underneath the house's porch light.
"What was that for?" she asked him.
The Spanish teen shrugged, "That's what you do after a date. Normally on the lips, but I decided to take your feelings into consideration and kissed your cheek instead."
"Well let me do the same," Arista planted a kiss on Elijah's cheek. "Goodnight."
"Goodnight," he said before walking in the direction of his aunt's house.
The End
I'm so happy that this isn't as long as the rest! :D Short and sweet!
