Platonic

An Actors Kiss

I stand up, placing my can of coke down and Newt follows and we stand there awkwardly for a while and Minho rolls his eyes at us both

"Oh come on, it's just a kiss" Minho says and I glare at him for the umpteenth time today
"There's a technique we learnt last week, remember, the thumb thing?" I say and Newt raises his brows nodding
"Oh yeah, think Janson taught us that for this?" He asks
"Could be" I say nodding "It would make sense" Newt nods and steps forward and he places his right hand on my cheek and he brings his face forward. I close my eyes, knowing what to expect. Our lips don't touch but I can feel his lips just hit under my bottom lip, no kissing and from Minho's point of view it should look like were kissing. It still had the ability to give me damn butterfly's just feeling his lips on me.
Newt moves back after a few seconds and we both look at Minho to see if it worked
"What was that!?" Minho asks disappointed and I smile as Newt takes a deep breath
"A fake kiss" I state and Minho snorts
"That was shoddy, here" Minho stands up from his chair and nods for Newt to step back, he does with a curious expression and Minho stands in front of me taking Newt's place.
"This is how it's done!" he says and he leans forward and kisses me on the lips, just a peck before he pulls away and then changes side of the kiss and my eyes are wide as he kisses me. I see Newt looking at us with shock but I close my eyes, just concentrating on Minho's kissing and kiss back just as ferociously. He was a damn good kisser.
It takes a few moments as I'm lost in the kiss to remember this is only acting, or at least it's meant to be. I pull back and smile at Minho and say my line and surprisingly enough Minho replies with a "Oh yes they fucking do" and we kiss again and he brings his hands on my sides and I smile in the kiss imagining the fake jacket being wrapped around me.
Minho pulls me in and I smirk and add tongue to the kiss and I can feel Minho smile as he pushes his tongue in my mouth and were practically raping each others mouths until I pull away before he gets a boner and embarrasses himself. We're both smiling and I wipe my mouth and we remember Newts there and look at him. He doesn't look shocked any more, his arms are crossed and his eyebrow raised with a smirk on his face
"You two have definitely kissed before, that was a real bloody snog!" I laugh and push Minho playfully and he smirks proudly and sits back down
"That's how it's done my friend"
I roll my eyes at Minho and sit down, picking up the folder
"Like he'd want to kiss me now your mouths been on me" I say picking up my drink and taking a sip
"I don't know anyone that doesn't want to kiss me shank!" I roll my eyes but I couldn't quite disagree
"Why don't you play the scene on repeat again" Newt says sitting down himself and grabbing the drink and Minho raises his eyebrows at me as if to say get in there girl and I just ignore him and take a deep breath.
As Minho's typing into google trying to find the link to the film again I look at Newt.
"You sure about this, you haven't got to kiss me like that prune did" I say and hear a snort from said prune at the computer
"That was actually really bloody good, if we can look like that on stage we could get full marks on this, we can't get away with the fake kiss on that" he says nodding towards the computer screen and I nod. He was right, if you watch that scene it's obvious we couldn't hide it with a thumb. That's a 'I'm sorry and I love you' kind of kiss.
Minho tells us to shush as he finds the scene and we watch it about 8 times, each time I watch the kisses closely, how I have to put my hand on Newts cheek at some point, how I wrap my arms around his neck and he wraps me in the jacket. Each time I watched the kiss we would have to copy the more I felt hot and bothered. I wanted to kiss Newt like that but not because I had to. Oh god what if I screw it up and make a fool of myself. What if I'm a shit kisser and Newt laughs at me. Oh god oh god.
Minho claps his hands together and stands up, jumping on to his bed behind me and Newt and points infront of him. Me and Newt get the hint and we stand up readying for the kiss, our first kiss, an acting kiss of course. Oh dear god.
Minho gives me a reassuring smile as he takes out his phone and I roll my eyes. My kiss with Newt and he didn't even seem bothered. I don't get that guy.
"Want to act it all out instead of just, going in for the kiss?" Newt asks and I nod gratefully for his suggestion.
I take a deep breath and a couple steps back.
