The Immunity

Ch. 12: Kiss & Tell

Short authors note: it has been literally forever since my last update, I'm sorry. But I am now soooo :)

"Sure, come in" I said, moving out of the way so he could come in.

Benji just sat down on my bed, and smiled as he looked up at me.

"Sorry for waking you up, I thought you'd be awake." He said, running his fingers through his hair.

"It's fine, I needed to talk to Blake anyway." I answered, walking towards my phone.

"Is he your boyfriend?" Benji asked, a little too curious.

I grabbed my phone off of the bedside table, and shook my head.

"No, he's not my boyfriend."

"He sure acts like it, that's why I was asking. But that's good, because I was hoping you'd be available." He said, and it made my skin cover with goosebumps.

"I- I'm not really looking for a relationship right now, I-" I sputtered out, but he cut me off, standing up.

"It doesn't have to be a relationship, Kiara." He whispered as he tucked a piece of hair behind my ear.

What did he think this was? Strangers with benefits?

I stepped back, feeling my back hit the wall behind me. "We don't even know each other, that would be awkward." I said, trying to talk myself out of kissing him. I could tell that's what he wanted, and part of me, the stupid part of me, wanted it too.

He stepped forward, and kissed me without warning. His mouth forcing mine to move, as I set my phone back down on the table.

"Benji, I-" I said, trying to pull away, unsuccessfully.

"Shhh." Was all he said, and pulled me closer.

After a few more moments I gave in, wrapping my arms around his neck, running my fingers through his lavender hair.

Just as he was taking his shirt off, someone knocked on my door.

We both froze, and I pulled away breathless as another knock sounded.

"Um, I'm gonna need you to leave." I told Benji, who was fixing his shirt.

He just looked up at me, and smiled. "Of course, I'll talk to you later?"

Would he? "Yea, sure. I'll talk to you later."

And as I opened the door, Blake was standing outside. Benji just kissed my neck from behind me, and brushed past him.

Blake's expression was unreadable. I had no idea what to say now that he was in front of me.

"Good morning, what is it?" Finally, I used words.

Blake's p.o.v.

I cannot believe what I just saw. Kiara let some guy into her bedroom, and was obviously doing things that was not rated PG.

Why do I care?

"Morning. I wanted to come see how you were, I was held hostage all day yesterday. But it seems like you've been fine." I said, forcing a laugh.

Her face went completely red, and she bit her lip. "Yeah, I'm okay. Already ready to leave though. Have you seen Dred?"

Leave? "No, I haven't seen him."

She looked at me as if trying to decipher what I was thinking. "Okay, well I'm gonna get dressed and then meet you downstairs then. Hopefully there's food." She said, laughing lightly.

"Right, hopefully. I'll see you downstairs." I said, as she shut her door.

As I walked back down the hallway, I couldn't help but to acknowledge this strange feeling in my stomach.

Jealousy?
