Chapter 17 - Chapter 17 First Kiss

Amber's POVs

Like Albert Einstein said; "You can't blame gravity for falling in love"

So I can't blame myself for falling in love, it comes naturally. But falling for two different people at the same time is wrong. I have to choose one of them, I am not too hungry that I have to eat two hamburgers at the same time. But none of them are available for me, even if I have chosen one of them doesn't mean he will choose me too. Some more they're gonna marry another girl, I'll just get over it and burn this feeling into ashes. Wake up, it's not gonna work.

"Stop right here, that's my house"

"Oh, Hannah is also living nearby and I used to pick and drop her here"

"Yeah I know, Ethan told me last time"

"Oh, he dropped you here before?"

"Yes a couple of times"

"Okay, so how about your feeling towards him now?"

" I don't know Noah, let's just get over it I don't wanna talk about him, and shall we call the night, thanks for everything you do for me I appreciate it"

"I'm sorry, Good night"

"Good night I gotta go"

"Uh wait"

He grabs my wrist trying to stop me while I'm leaving.

"Yes, is there anything else?"

"What about me?"

I stopped for a while and began wondering what he was talking about.

"What do you mean?"

"I mean how do you feel about me?"

"I feel happy spending time with you and I feel grateful for everything you do for me today so thank you"

He put my open palm against his chest and said

"Feel it"

"What?"

"Feel my heart"

"Why?"

"It's beating unusual"

"What do you mean"

"Is it okay if I said, my heart is pounding for you?"

"Noah" He put his finger on my lips trying to stop me from speaking any word.

"Look at me"

"I'm looking at you"

"Look at my eyes"

"Yes I am"

"Deeper"

"Why"

"Say that you don't have any feelings for me, not even a bit"

"Why would I do that"

"Amber says it!"

"I can't"

"Why?"

"Because I like you and I can't lie about it"

We are both silent, and staring at each other then he began to move his hand and touched my cheek gently. I feel a tingling sensation while he moves his finger sliding softly on my skin down to my lips and said;

"I think I like you too"

My heart is pounding so hard, I feel like my heart is going to jump out of my chest just by hearing those words come out of his mouth. His eyes are shining like a sparkling glass, our eye contact is getting so deeper and deeper making us both drowning in this intense situation. I'm speechless, my mouth is freezing and I can't even say a word. I feel so awkward and don't know what to say or what to do. His face came closer to mine and made my heart beat racing unstable, finally, his lips met mine but how could I not resist at all, time stopped in a collision of senses when our lips began to accept each other. My heart skipped a beat and I gasped a throaty sound. His lips were soft, almost silken, and pillowy against my own. I could feel the soft tickle of his breath beneath my nose, his fingers carding through my hair as we breathed each other in.

This was the sweetest moment, our real first kiss, not CPR, I feel so warm and fuzzy after kissing. Also thanks to oxytocin, that gives me a "warm and fuzzy" feeling, which contributes to the sense that you're falling in love. As you go in for a kiss, "oxytocin, aka the 'love hormone,' rushes through your veins," that's what I learned from biology class.

"You're alright, why are you so quiet after the kiss?"

"I have never done it before"

"I know my virgin Angel"

"Why did you call me that?"

He grabbed my palm and looked me in the eyes

"I can call you anything I want because you are mine now and I won't let you down I promise"

"I'm sorry about the kiss but I couldn't decide anything about us being together"

"What are you sorry for, relax it's just a kiss"

"It's just a kiss?"

"Yeah, why?"

"I know that it's just a kiss for you it's nothing special for you, But it's not just a kiss for me"

"Alright I'm sorry, but what is a big deal about it let's make it simple, you like me I like you and we like each other so why do we have to fake this relationship, let's just be a couple for real, you and me we both together as a lover simple as that, don't make it so complicated"

"I'm not making it so complicated, I'm saying what's the difference between you and Ethan, you both won't make it to marry me in the future, you gonna marry Hannah remember?"

"Forget it, I'm not gonna marry now and we're gonna figure out how to break this arranged marriage so don't worry too much"

"How could I not worry, it's not that simple to break the engagement"

"But I'm not engaged with her yet, it's just a plan of our parents, but first lemme ask you one thing"

"What?"

"How about your feelings with Ethan?"

"I don't know Noah, let's talk about it some other time I have to go right now"

"Hmm alright then, good night my sweet pie"

"Oh stop it, go now" I'm blushing

"No, you go first I wanted to make sure that my girl was safe and sound inside the house"

"How sweet, now go"

"Haha alright see you tomorrow" he blew a flying kiss for me, how sweet.

"Ah stop it" I'm blushing.

That's what we both call the night. I never knew that he could be so sweet, ah I miss my bed it's such a long day. And welcome to my Casual and laid-back cottage-style bedroom, which is the epitome of cozy charm. The light and airy design lean into a natural, simple aesthetic that is oh-so calming — making it ideal for a bedroom retreat. Here, board-and-batten walls add subtle dimension to the room, while woven blinds and a jute rug deliver organic texture. Ruffled linens combine with a mix of patterns in subdued blues for a ready-to-relax bed, even if it's just a small room I make it as comfortable as I can.

As I lay down on my comfy bed, I kept thinking about what is happening today, we had so much fun together and I even forgot about my broken heart.

Everything's happened real quick. Me and Noah, we kissed! Oh my God, I couldn't think about anything else except for that biggest moment of my life, My first kiss, with Noah.
