Frederick's eyes flung open! Despite being extremely tired, he was no longer sleepy. His hand instinctively touched the very spot Rafael kissed on his forehead.
'What was that?' He thought. Could it be possible that he only imagined it? Perhaps it was and he woke up startled by his own dream. Either way, Frederick was not sure.

His forehead formed crinkles as he tried to differentiate between dream and reality. Logically, there was no way, the very man that had rejected his bold confession would do such a thing.

"You're sober now?"
