TREES AND BEES || BLANCHE & KRISTIAN KOSTOV
"Hey Blanche." Kristian calls for me. He oh-so-conveniently happened to be my neighbour with the tree-planting.
"Hmm?"
"I think mine looks better than yours." He says, eyeing both mine and his own tree, which were now planted and had our names with it.
I scoff at him, "Definitely not." I say and place my hand on his arm shortly, "But you tried." I say and shoot him a sympathising smile.
Kristian's hand flies up to his chest and over his heart, faking to be hurt. "Ouch."
I do everything not to burst out laughing.
"Is your ego damaged now?" I ask him. a sarcastic tone in my voice.
He grins at me. "Certainly not."
Right then, interviewers came up to us, asking for a quick chat with Kristian. He agreed and I took my chance to get away.
I was done for today and decided to head back to the hotel, and plan on spending the rest of my day there.
"Hey Blanche." I hear his familiar voice call for me once again.
"You again, Kristian?" I grin at him.
He throws his arm around my shoulders, "Do you get pleasure out of trying to hurt my feelings?" he jokes.
"How'd you guess?"
"I don't know, just a feeling I suppose." He replies.
Kristian drops his arm from around my shoulders, "Anyway, do you want to go do something together?"I didn't expect him to ask that, resulting in me standing there and looking at him dumbfounded for a few seconds before I see a huge grin form on his face.
"Oh, get that off your face."
"I do not know what you are talking about." He says innocently.
I roll my eyes at him, "Of course you don't. Anyway, what did you want to go do?" I ask.
"Eh, I didn't really think of that yet. Just be ready at seven, I'll come and get you." He says and before I can agree or protest, he is already gone.
I walk back to my own hotel room with a weird feeling in my stomach that I wasn't able to identify yet.
I glance at the watch that is on my wrist and see that it's already six, meaning that I only had an hour to prepare myself for whatever was coming.
At exactly seven I'm done. Only seconds later I hear a knock at the hotel door, and I realise that it must be Kristian.
"You look nice, miss." He says once I've opened the door.
"Well, thank you. You too." I say, and let him lead the way to whereever we were going.
It ended up being a small and cozy restaurant.
"I hate to say this, but it's really nice Kristian." I tell him, and immediately regret it. The look on his face was enough. "Oh stop that."
"I'm not even doing anything." He defends himself.
"Oh, whatever. Let's just go eat dinner."
I'm surprised at how easy our conversation was flowing. It almost felt like we were long lost friends and had years of catching up to do.
"I have more for you, though." Kristian says as soon as we walk out the restaurant.
"You do? What is it?" I ask surprised. I had expected that we were going back to our hotel now, but apparently that was not the case.
"Shh. Just follow me." He says, not giving away anything. He starts to walk in some direction, and not wanting to be stranded in the middle of a country that I didn't know, I quickly followed him.
We walk together in silence for some time, until Kristian speaks up.
"Who would've thought you could have so much fun with me, huh?" Kristian says and hits my shoulder softly.
"Who says I was having fun though?"
"Oh come on, don't go and deny it now. Not a chance in hell you didn't have fun with me."
At this point I, too, couldn't hold back a smile anymore. Either way, I still wasn't going to give him what he wanted to hear. "Meh. It was alright." I say and shrug my shoulders.
Kristian stops walking, leaving us both standing there at the middle of a bridge, "Alright? You're calling me alright?"
"I just did, didn't I?" I dare him by setting one step into his direction.
He smirks at me, and mimics my actions, setting one step closer to me.
"So, just to confirm, you're saying that tonight wasn't fun at all?" He says michieviously.
I nod my head and Kristian decides to get even closer, our bodies almost touching now. "Not even now?" he asks.
I shake my head.
Kristian wrappes his arms around my neck, moving his head the tiniest bit closer to me. "How about now?"
"No." I stammer, and instantly get mad at myself for letting him affect me like this.
He smiles, and moves his head even closer to mine just so are lips almost touch. Any movement from either him or me would make it that they did.
"I'll ask one more time," He starts, "Did you have fun with me tonight?"
Without thinking I nod my head softly, at this point just wanting him to kiss me already. But instead of doing that, he backs away and grins proudly. "See." he says, "I knew you enjoyed yourself."
"Oh fuck you." I say, and grab the collar of his shirt pulling him closer to me and pressing my lips to his.
Seemingly surprised by my actions, it takes Kristian a few seconds to react. But then he wraps his arms back around me and moves his lips in sync with mine.
