Chapter 2: Lifted is the Spell

I stare at him in disbelieve.

"No that isn't-"
"Please, it doesn't feel right letting you out here alone. Especially when she had too much to drink."

What?

I focused my eyes on his eyes. Finding reasons as to why I shouldn't accept his offer. I bit my lips and look towards the direction where I was aiming to go through. I already had a bad time today. I wasn't sure if this would solve the problem or not. 

I looked at him again and he begins to open the door.  His face began to display a playful grin and from that, it was hard to hesitate this kind offer.

What should I do?

"To the station would be fine."

I never thought I would find myself in the position or even have the ability to see him again. It's weird but yet I'm not seeing myself running away. I enter the limo and it's my first time in one. Though the limo carried a lot of seats, he sits right next to me.

"It seems like me a the CEO have a similar way of thinking."
"I tend to have problems with his way of thinking.  But the stranger in the bar seemed to be in two different worlds from him. I'm sure your thoughts are better-"
"Judging a person through rumours isn't a good approach in knowing someone."

As he said that he slowly comes closer to me. But though the distance between us was getting shorter he continuous talking as if he is oblivious to his movement. He plays around with my hair and I'm lost in his eyes. I become deaf from my surrounding. He closes his eyes and approaches my lips. I blush with excitement. Draws his hand to my waist with small hesitation and it soon came to an agreement that he was going to kiss me.

I don't want to close my eyes.

But he backs down the last minute. He studies my eyes of disappointment and from that, he kisses me for real. Too real. This time I had to close my eyes. It's too much but I can't stop him. I should stop him, but I don't want to stop him. He stops.

"Why do you wear your glasses?"
"I always wear my glas- Hey wait! Why did you kiss me?!"
"Becuase that's what the moment called for."
"What?!"

Kakeru begins to laugh. I'm starting to feel uncomfortable and thought about what will happen tomorrow and after that. I would be back to my normal self and just like in the Cinderella story he would be looking for the girl he kissed that night. He wouldn't think it's was me.

"Please stop the car."
"But we haven't arrived yet."
"No this is place is perfect. Thank you."
"But you're drunk."
"It's okay. Anyway, thank you again."

The limo stops and I hop out, give myself a straight face and turn around. Kakeru looks at me with a crack smile.

"Well then, thank you for tonight."
"Yes, till we meet again."
"Oh no, this is goodbye forever."

I wave goodbye and walk off, hearing the door close behind me. I watched as the limo drives past. I take a deep breath and revisit the kiss. I blushed again not sure if it was a dream or not.

"What was that?"

****

Two days after the party

I'm having lunch with Momoka as always. The magic had worn off and I was sat down with my hair tied back and my glasses back on. I was telling Momoka about what had happened that night with Kakeru and I.

"Ooo! That's so romantic!"
"Which part?"

I said sipping the drink I ordered. Oz Magic's been bought by Cyber Speed, but nothing changed. That's because our CEO is working as a VP.

"So you ran off with him. I thought you were still upset about the Kisetsudo account. I something thought something bad had happened."
"Nothing like that."
"It would be great if you meet him again."
"No, once is okay!" I screamed. Surprising myself.

Since I complained about the CEO TO Kakeru, meeting him again would definitely make me go crazy.

"Do you know who he is?"
"Just his name. Oh, and that he is a friend of the CEO."
"Are you sure that wasn't that wasn't the CEO himself."

Kakeru = CEO NAH!!

"I thought about it but no way."
"Why not?"
"If he was the CEO he wouldn't have listened to me complaining about him and he would have agreed with me. But it was the first time we've met."

I swear the CEO's name was Sho Yamagata.

"I guess. Either way, it would be nice if you guys meet again."
"Seriously,"

Momoka tells me that the CEO was conducting starting from this week for research on Oz Magic. As she tells me this I stare at my drink.

"I don't know a lot but Management, advertising, productions are going to see how each works,"
"Production as well?"
"It's just a rumour, but everyone is saying it."
"I wasn't told."

She nods and drinks her tea. I'm late to hear about it but Momoka is a life saver. I'm not completely shadowed. I continue to stare at my drink, cafe au lait.

That was the end of lunch.
