It has been some days now, and all my friends have been very cautious around me... They act as though I'm a bomb that's going to explode at any moment. Though it's nice that they're being more considerate of my feelings now, it is a bit weird and annoying from the sudden change. It's not like I want them to be uncomfortable around me either, I want them to be themselves, even if they touch me by accident.

Zak and I are currently heading to the library as I really need to study for a test. On our way there, we bump into Nick, asking us what we were planning to do. We just stated that we were heading to the library. He seemed a bit sad since he was hoping to hang out with us, but let us be. Once we arrived at the library, I started to search for a table to use to study in. As we were looking around, I commented, "The library is quite empty today... I haven't seen anybody yet."

Zak teasingly says, "Must be because nobody's a nerd like you."

I just roll my eyes at him. He then says, "But in all seriousness, it's probably because there's a party being hosted today, so everyone should be getting ready for that."

"Really? So early?"

Zak just nods. I shrug and keep searching. I look down at an aisle to see a small table with two chairs near the far end of the aisle. I look up to read the sign of the category of books that are in this aisle. I smile and exclaim, "This is great! There's a table in the aisle containing books that I need to read!"

We go up to the table and place our bags on the chairs. I turn and walk up to a bookshelf to inspect the various books. As I'm about to reach for a book, I feel Zak wrap his arms around my waist lovingly. He lays his head on my shoulder and buries his face into my neck. I can't stop a small cheeky smile spread on my face from the gesture. I continue to grab various books to inspect them and see if they contain the correct material. I end up placing all but one book back to its place as they don't have what I'm looking for.

As I keep looking, I look up, and a book catches my eye. From the title that I read, I believe it contains what I'm looking for. I reach a hand out for it, but I'm a bit too short to reach it. I let out a small huff of frustration as I do my best to stretch out for it as a finger is just barely grazing the bottom of the book. Soon, Zak reaches for the book and grabs it from the shelf, giving it to me. I flush a bit from embarrassment. I turn my head a bit to look at Zak better, to end up receiving a small kiss from him on my cheek, which was way too close to my lips. I'm guessing he meant to kiss me on the lips but missed.

I let out a short giggle and step out from his grasp to walk back to the table. I stop near the edge of the table and place the books on top of it. From the corner of my eye, I see Zak stand right next to me and look at me longingly. From that look and the gesture that he gave me just a minute ago when he kissed me, I know what he wants. I decide to give Zak exactly what he wants by turning to him and giving him a tender kiss. As Zak places his hands on my waist, and I can feel his muscles relax as he melts into the kiss. Once I break the kiss, I expect him to let me go, but instead, he quickly connects our lips again. He pulls me closer to him by the waist as he deepens the kiss.

For some reason, Zak somehow seems more... desperate in the kiss. Nevertheless, I give into the kiss as I wrap my arms around Zak's neck, bringing us even closer. After a few moments, Zak catches me by surprise by abruptly lifting me and sitting me down on top of the table. Zak makes sure to move the books to the side so that they don't bother me. Despite the sudden movement, I don't find myself tensing up at all as I fully leave let my body be in the care of my lover. Zak does all of this without breaking the kiss at all. But he soon mumbles out into the kiss, "You're so f*cking gorgeous."

I feel my cheeks redden a bit from the comment. I lift a hand into Zak's hair and start gently playing with it as we kiss. After a bit, I feel Zak lightly nibble on my bottom lip. I get confused for a bit, but realization hits me as Zak just barely grazes his tongue on my bottom lip. He's asking for entrance into my mouth. I hesitate for a moment, but I muster up confidence as I slowly start opening my mouth, and Zak cautiously slides his tongue in my mouth. I can't stop a small moan from escaping my mouth as his tongue fully enters my mouth. Once that sound escapes from me, Zak gains the confidence to passionately tongue kiss me as explores my mouth freely, and I let him do so as I lose all hesitance in me and let myself be carried away by the moment.
