CHAPTER TWENTY| DEEPER FEELINGS
—
WIK
Until a second ago, Wik thought that Non was just messing with him. With every inch that Non leaned closer, the faster Wik felt his heart knocking on his rib cage. Non wasn't going to kiss him. Of course, he wasn't, duh! Maybe he was just testing if Wik would keep his promise and not kiss him. At least, that was what was going on in Wik's head until about right now.
Non's lips are on his. Just a little bit, but they are. Should he pull away? What if Non will say that Wik kissed him? But it was clearly Non who leaned in. And the kiss... it's so soft like a butterfly touch. Maybe it shouldn't even count for a kiss. However, no matter how soft it is, the feeling it wakes up deep inside Wik it's really hard for Wik to handle without reaching out for Non, and kiss him the way Non deserves to be kissed.
But he won't do it because he promised. Wik will die before he ever breaks a promise he made to Non. But still, he can't just pull away like that. He has to at least feel the warmth of Non's cheek against his palm. So Wik moves his hand ever so slowly towards Non and cups his cheek, making Non twitch a little as if realising what he is actually doing.
Holding his breath, Wik is watching Non's eyes opening wide and Non pulling away, but he doesn't pull away much, just enough to put a bit of space between their faces, and to Wik's relief Non doesn't ask him to take his hand away.
"I didn't kiss you," Wik breathes out.
"I know," Non whispers. "I'm sorry... I shouldn't have done this—"
Wik's fingers brush over Non's hair, and he shakes his head, "let me make something clear, Non—never apologise for kissing me. I don't know why you did it now. And if you don't feel like telling me then I don't need to know, but I want you to know that I'm fucking glad you did it. I liked the way it felt. And I can only hope that you liked it, too."
Non inhales deeply, takes Wik's hand cupping his cheek, and places their joined hands on the table between them. "The truth is... I don't know why I did it. It just happened and I... maybe I wanted to know if I would feel something."
Wik's heart stops for a moment. He is pretty sure that Non had to feel something. But what if he didn't? No! Wik pushes that thought away. There's literally no way that Non didn't like that butterfly touch of their lips. So, Wik is waiting for Non to say something more, but there's nothing but tension-filled silence between them.
Wik can't handle it any longer so he tries to prompt Non to continue, "and? Don't tell me it was that bad," he tries to joke.
Non slightly shakes his head, "it wasn't... I just. I suddenly feel like everything I ever felt for Jin was a lie."
