It was the last night for Kaia as a captive, tomorrow Skyler was gonna drop him off at his bakery shop and so tonight he and Skyler had a small party just the two of them. The moon was shining bright tonight and you could see it's light bouncing on the water. A cool Breeze to make this night a perfect time for a date between lovers. But it's just two heartbroken dudes hanging out now.

Skyler set up a table and two chairs on the beach and so the two just sat and enjoyed this nice night. Perhaps Kaia has had too many drinks so he was getting a little tipsy. Neither of them spoke but it wasn't awkward. This unusual feeling was mutual between them, they enjoyed each other's silent company and was far from being uncomfortable.

Kaia finally got up as he was feeling sleepy, he would love to stay more but his eyes were giving up. Maybe he drank too much and was tipsy or it's because he was walking on sand but when he got up and started walking his balance was off and within the second step he took, he fell down.

Luckily the person next to him caught him in time and instead of the sand his head hit a hard pack of muscles. The man who caught him was looking at him and kept asking if he was okay but all Kaia heard was just some mumbling sound. This was the first time since college that he drank so much and so his head was spinning and his face was red. A few strands of the long hair of the man who caught him brushes through his cheeks from time to time as the wind picked up it's speed.

As drunk as he was Kaia started playing with the hair, stroking it, running his fingers through and braiding it up a bit. His eyebrows crunches up as he didn't get the braid he wanted and pursed his lips in disappointment. All the while the owner of the hair stared in disbelief.

K - Hmm your hair is beautiful too. (Mumbling to himself)

Maybe it's the atmosphere, maybe it's the moon, maybe it's the booze they had, maybe it's the sea and the breeze but Skyler couldn't help but look at the man who was playing with his hair in his arms. The flushed cheeks, the droopy eyes, the glistening lips from the moonlight and the eyebrows scrunching from time to time. Under the bright moonlight, in the cool breeze Skyler's lips finds itself on top Kaia's. Soft and a little sweet from the booze he just had.

By the time Skyler retrieve his lips the latter was already sleeping. A look of disappointment sets in his face. What was he doing? He thought. Tomorrow he was gonna let go of this man and here he was kissing him while he was sleeping.

While Skyler remains messed up in his mind on the other hand Kaia was having a good sleep. His breadth was steady and relax as if something major just didn't happen.

Skyler sighed as he finally picked up the man sleeping in his arms and went inside. Tonight's incident..... He was gonna blame it on the booze.

*******
The next morning Kaia woke up so after a good night sleep. Although he was having a little headache other than that he felt good. The last thing he remembered was him falling to the ground and then blank.

Skyler was making some ginger tea when Kaia came into the kitchen.

K - Good morning.

S - huh? Ah...... Yeah.... Sure... Good morning.

Strange Kaia thought Skyler was avoiding eye contact.

K - you okay?

S - ( diverting his eyes elsewhere) yeah..... Why wouldn't I be?

Kaia felt something suspicious but he was going free today so he brushed it off. The room was silent and the sound of Kaia pouring the tea into cup filled the room. Skyler seeps his cup of tea awkwardly.

Finally Kaia spoke

K - oh hey thanks for bringing me to my room. I blacked out after getting up last night so assumed you took me to bed so thanks.

Skyler almost spilled his tea from his mouth.

S - you..... You didn't remember? Last night?

K - ....... No why? did something happen? Huh!!?? Did I throw up?!

Skyler was a bit upset but he didn't say anything about the thing that happened.

S - no nothing happened. You were just heavy that's all.

K - Rude ( he mumbled)

Skyler chuckled and said, " it's just the truth."
