Preference: Your First Kiss (Part 3)

Edmund

  You rolled onto your back and peeked through your eyelids. It was pitch black.

  "Y/N," the voice muttered again, shaking your shoulder gently.

  "What do you want, Ed?" you mumble, sitting up against your pillows and rubbing your eyes.

  You and Ed have been best friends your whole lives. You met when you were four years old and you had punched another kid in the face for bullying Ed. Since then, the two of you have been inseparable.

  And when your Mum passed away two months ago, Ed had immediately offered for you to come and live with him and his family, to which they had all agreed. That's how you ended up in the bedroom next door to Edmund, the boy of multiple nightmares a week.

  "I had another nightmare," he said, looking at his feet like a little kid.

  "Fine, get in," you said, lying back down. Ed climbed into the other side of the bed and lay down facing you. "What happened?"

  "I don't really want to talk about it," he said, avoiding eye contact with you.

  "Okay," you said, curious. Ed always tells you what happened in his nightmares. "Are you alright?"

  "I'm fine," he said. "I just don't want to talk about what happened in this nightmare."

  "Okay," you repeated. It must've been really bad! "Let's get some sleep."

  You both lay in silence for a while, listening to the other breathe. Neither of you could get to sleep.

  "You awake?" muttered Ed.

  "Yeah," you replied, turning back to face him, but finding yourself nose to nose with him. You felt a blush rise to your cheeks, but didn't pull away. Thank Aslan it's dark! Ed didn't move either. You both just lay there, noses touching, neither knowing what to say next.

  "In my nightmare," Ed began, whispering, breaking the silence, "I came out of the kitchen to find you and Peter kissing in the living room. And when I asked what you were doing, you told me it was none of your business and that you don't love me even a little bit. Then you went back to kissing Peter and ignored my presence." You didn't know what to say. "It hurt," Ed continued. "Seeing you with him, seeing you with someone else. Telling me those things. We're meant to be best friends, you know? I mean, I like you more than that, but you not caring about me at all really hurt."

  "Ed," you whispered, bringing your hand up to stroke his hair. "First off, I would never kiss Peter of all people. He's like a brother to me. Second, I would never ignore you. Ever. And third, I like you as more than just my best friend too."

  "Really?" said Ed, hope filling his voice.

  "Really," you said. "Now, what are you waiting for?"

  Ed looked at you confused. "What?"

  "Kiss me," you said, a small smile appearing on your lips before Ed's pressed against yours.
