Chapter 48 - Photo Booth

“Christopher there’s only room for one person,” I told him with a small smile on my face. 

“We can both fit in there.” 

With just a look on my face, Christopher grinned and pulled me in. There was only one seat in the photo booth. One very small seat. 

I have no idea how the two of us will fit on the chair but whatever. 

I sat on half of the seat while Christopher sat on the other half. Our butts were literally touching. I could feel his butt next to mine. I looked at the wall of the booth. 

Can that information please leave my mind? 

Since we wanted each of us to have a strip of pictures, we had to take 8 photos, which seemed a lot to me. We made faces at the camera, sticking our tongue out and blowing kisses at the camera. 

Just before the camera took the fourth picture, Christopher pressed his lips to my face, kissing my cheeks. My lips immediately turned up in a smile as I looked down at the ground. There was a flash and I knew that the camera had captured that moment. 

Once that picture was taken, Christopher removed his lips from my cheeks. Before he moved back, he pressed another quick kiss to my cheek. 

“Eres bella,” he said. 

I turned to look at him, my cheeks burning but I had a huge smile on my face. He smiled at me and from the corner of my eyes, I saw the camera flash again. 

He rested his head on my shoulder and when I looked down at him, he smiled at me. 

He looks so cute, I thought to myself, smiling. 

The camera flashed again and he moved, sitting up. 

Should I just do it? Making a decision, I moved so that I was closer to Christopher. Leaning up, I pressed my lips softly to his cheeks, like what he did to me. 

Maybe this was a bad idea, what if he pushed me away? That would be embarrassing and it would probably make it awkward between us. I mean, even though I had kissed him on New Year’s, we had consumed some alcohol before that so maybe he didn’t mind when he was tipsy but now he’s sober and maybe he minds it. 

Oh my god this was a bad idea. A really bad idea. 

Instead of pushing me away, he laughed. 

Okay maybe it isn’t a bad idea. 

The camera flashed again and I moved away, my cheeks burning hot but what’s new? 

“My cheeks are so red oh my god,” I mumbled and he laughed again. He moved so that both his hands were holding my face. 

“It’s so warm,” he grinned. 

“That’s because you made me blush,” I told him, rolling my eyes slightly but smiling. 

“I made you blush?” he gasped, his jaw dropping.

“Yes,” I laughed. “You kissed me.” Not that I’m complaining. 

“You kissed me too!”

“Shh,” I told him when the camera flashed again. 

“Are those all the pictures?” he asked and I nodded. 

“I think so.”

We got out and picked out the pictures. After we took the pictures, we walked towards the claw machine, where our friends were. Erick, Richard and Joel were trying to catch something at the machine while Zabdiel and Andrea were beside them, competing against each other.
