I looked at Net as he asked me, "Are we really behaving like friends, Jes?"
Before I could reply, Teresa came by with the first aid box. Net pulled away from me, going towards her. She sat him down and dressed his wound. I just looked at him from where I was standing.
I knew my heart had been wavering over him for a bit now. But I didn't realize it, or it didn't hit me that his was wavering too.
And seeing Kyunn hit him just amplified the feelings I was starting to carry for him. I watched as Teresa delicately dressed his wounds, and he smiled at her in reciprocation. Once she was done, she stood up, wanting to keep the kit away, but before she left, she muttered in my ear, "Kiss him already. It's so darn obvious!"
I blushed so badly this time around! But before I could speak to him, my dad came in to check on us. Net went off, reassuring him he was ok and scampered off to eat. My dad told me to come too and followed after Net.
Thankfully, nobody addressed the elephant in the room but smoothed over it. Everyone ate, we all caught some movies and gamed together before people started to take their leave around midnight.
Net got his things and prepared to leave around 1am when my mom stopped him.
"It's so late dear. Just sleep over tonight. You can bunk in Jes's room."
"Auntie..it's ok. I will just uber home. Don't worry."
However my mom didn't take no for an answer and insisted he stayed. I just watched as Net agreed and he turned to look at me. My parents and Teresa had left, leaving us alone.
"I will...I will get you a change of clothes and towel ok."
Net nodded, thanking me softly. Looks like his bravado from earlier had disappeared. He showered and changed in the guest bathroom while I used mine.
He came to my room once he had kept away his things."You can sleep on the bed, Net. I sleep on the floor."
Net looked at me confused. "We can share the bed, can't we?"
"Are you ok with that?"
Net looked at me confused.
"You didn't even want to stay over. My mom had to force you. You sure you are ok sleeping here?" I groused pettily.
Net looked at me before he burst out laughing!
"I just didn't want to inconvenience you! Why are you so petty?!"
"Because you asked if we are behaving like friends and then the very next minute, you behave like a stranger." I huffed out, pouting.
Net looked at me keenly for a while before he came over.
"Are you for real?"
"What?"
"Are you honestly this cute all the time or is it just around me?"
I looked at Net, starting to blush again.
"Net.."
"Can I do something?"
"What?"
"Something that definitely affirms that we aren't behaving like friends, Jes."
Net whispered as he leaned in, kissing me softly. Damn, I had never kissed a guy before but why the heck did Net taste this good?
I leaned in more into the kiss and I felt Net take control, holding me firmly by my chin and gripping my waist with his other hand. He played hooky by tightening his hold on me, biting my lower lip and as I moaned softly, he slipped his tongue in.
Fuck. This guy. Was really more than just his soft spoken persona. I was finally getting a taste of the characters he played onscreen!
Net finally pulled away, looking at me.
"Jes.."
"Just kiss me again please."
