Jeremy froze for a moment. One moment he was seriously contemplating whether he should confess to her right then or not and the next moment, he is being kissed by her – the one he loves.
This is the first time she is kissing me when she is sober... She is kissing me when she is sober!
His hand holding her waist gently traveled to the back of her head and he held her other hand closer to his heart. Her lips were soft and they had a sweet taste to them.
He kissed her back.
Jerlina tried to pull back realizing what she has done. Only when he kissed her back did she realize that she has kissed him to stop him from speaking.
What have I done?
Sensing her retreat, Jeremy let go of her lips. He opened his eyes and looked at her. With a blush, she looked like a freshly blossomed rose in his arms.
"The kiss... I'll expl-"
