"Ixora," Liam's eyebrows creased, "What on earth are you wearing?"
"Is this mask ugly? If yes, good," Ixora's voice sounded muffled under the mask, "I'm guarding off the boys and girls. I'm sure after they've seen my hideous mask, they'll run away."
Liam stared at her mask. It did look hideous, all right- it was painted red, and black around the eye area. There were fangs, that looked way too fake, painted around the mouth, and white circles painted around the cheeks. He chuckled.
He walked to Ixora, and when he reached a few centimetres before her, he stopped, a warm smile staying on his face. "Are you stupid?" His blue eyes looked into Ixora's green ones. She could see some sort of mischief, yet bewilderment, and a little bit of affection in them, "Then how are you going to do things like this?"
"Huh?" Before Ixora could understand what he meant, he swiftly moved the mask upwards such that it was above her head, and before she knew it, something soft landed on her lips.
And of course, it was Liam's lips.
He pulled away and smiled, leaving a quivering Ixora whose face was now burning hot. After admiring her cute face for a while, he added, "Ah, I think it's better if you did wear a mask, anyway. So people wouldn't kiss you nor see such a cute expression of yours." Then, he pulled the mask back down to cover her flushing face.
Ixora couldn't talk for hours.
