"Juliet" Matt said as he took his step towards me.

"Where art thou Romeo?"

And all of a sudden, everything turned into black. I should stop him but I can't. Is it because I'm in total shocked? But It couldn't be! it's like, I'm glued on the place I was standing. Unable to move in this darkened place.

"Seriously Juliet, I really love you. The first time I saw you was one of the best day that ever happened in my life." He said after dumping his lips against mine. Feeling ko tuloy binalewala ko si Felix. I couldn't even swallow my saliva after that, nararamdaman ko kasi ang mga titig ni Felix na nakaupo lang sa harap namin as an audience. So I stood still, literally hearing my heartbeats. It's like I'm standing on a flamed pile, consuming my flesh in every second. My heart keeps on pounding, parang sasabog na nga sa lakas nang kabog.

I blinked and look at Matthew blankly, he kissed me. He kissed me in front of many people. This is a theatrical performance and I'm not expecting that to happen, as a matter of fact that kiss was not put on our dialogue. So he purposely did it.

I shook my head being horrified by his move. I took a step backward and turned my gaze on the crowd.

"Dude!" I saw Nick stopped Felix but Felix didn't listened. And when our eyes met he gave me that pained yet mad look. "Felix!" Nick, his older brother squealed when Felix jogged towards the backstage. And when I saw his expression I startled.

"I'm- I'm. Im sorry" I said faintly, leaving the crowd confusedly and leaving Matt in the stage.

I ran without knowing where I'm going. I threw the connected recorder and dropped the mic. Supposed to be this performance was our major project. That crap of a hell role play. Masgugustohin ko nalang na bumagsak kaysa masikmura pa ang Matthew 'nayun. Tsaka na blocked out na rin ako, nakalimutan ko na nga lahat ng script ko dahil dun. Like what the heck! He took advantage of me!

I buried my face on my palm. I couldn't wash that thought away. I promised to myself that I'll be having my first kiss inside the church, I mean in front of the altar. And I'll be having that with a deserving man. And that deserving man was Felix!

"Grace." Upon hearing that voice I gasp and immediately turned my face.

"Felix!" I ran towards him and hugged him so tight, very tight that could possibly interrupt him from breathing.

"Sssh... It's okay. It's okay." He gently pulled me, giving me an embrace while softly tapping my back.

"I'm sorry Felix, I'm sorry" I buried my face on his chest as my tears start to roll down. "Ikaw dapat yun, ikaw dapat yun. Ikaw dapat ang first kiss ko"

"And that kiss... Meant nothing Felix. I assure you, that was nothing" I exclaimed, trembling in front of him.

"I know and as I said it's okay... Nabigla ka lang. Besides life does not revovles around perfection. And no big deal, love. It's just a kiss. A peck that doesn't even have a taste. Kung gugustohin ko nga I could give you a french kiss, tsk! kahit hindi na nga french kiss. Diretso kama na." He smirked with his smug look so I playfully punched him on the chest.
