Story 2 – Part 2
I can't get the image of him out of my head. This is bad. During class, I have problems concentrating for the first time in my life. The teacher asks something. I didn't catch what he said. Win doesn't raise his hand; he stares out of the window. I wonder what he is thinking about. The teachers finger points at me.
"What?" I ask. The whole class starts to look at me. I feel uneasy and uncomfortable. It's normal for others to stare at me with an ugly expression on their face, but right now I'm not prepared for what he might ask.
"Usem? Aren't you paying attention? I asked if you can clean after class today. Can you?"
I nod.
The rest of the day, I decide to only focus on school. I get interrupted by my thoughts sometimes, but I force them out of my head.
After school, every student leaves. Some of them will hang out after school. I'm left behind in this empty building. If it was winter, the sun would already be asleep. Luckily, spring holds the sun awake.
"Usem?" A tall student in my class asks from the doorframe. I thought everybody had left. He is a bit lower than Win. I don't remember his name, but I think he is a model. His face is handsome, and when you see him, he will remind you of a leader.
"Do you want some help?" He asks friendly and smiles.
"No, thank you…" I say and try to remember his name.
"Kai, let's go!" Some of his friends shout. He waves at me and go with them.
When I'm finished and go outside, someone grabs my hand and pushes me against the wall. Win looks confused and stares at me.
"I'm sorry. I just have to know." He leans closer to my face. His cheeks are red and his hands are shaking. I am too, and my heartbeat rises. Win moistens his lips as he looks at me, and presses them against mine. I automatically close my eyes. Our hands are united up against the wall as we kiss. His other arm is holding around my body. This feels good. My stomach twists and stock butterflies. And I'm warm, very warm. Win smells off shampoo. When he leans back I open my eyes. What was that? We were kissing? He stares at the ground, then he suddenly run away. Was he waiting for me to finish cleaning? Couldn't he have helped me?
I hear footsteps.
"What were you guys doing?" It's Kai. Didn't he go with his friends? I get flustered and blush.
"Nothing." Couldn't I come up with a better answer? Kai comes closer.
"You were making out; did he force himself on you?"
"No! It's just a joke. Nothing serious." I regret my reply. Why did I say that? Kai studies my face expression. His eyes are brown. Then he removes some off his hair from his eyes. It is black and short, but covers his eyes most of the time.
"I don't believe you unless you let me do the same." Kai takes his hands on my cheeks and gently kisses me. I push him away.
"Wha..?" I mumble.
"So it's only ok if Win does it?" He asks depressed. I don't know what to do. I'm so confused. Why did he kiss me? When I look at Kai, he is only smiling. Was he teasing me? I slap him and walk away.
The next day I try to ignore everyone and only focus on school. It's hard because of all these thoughts. Why can't they just disappear? My heart pumps faster as I think about the kiss yesterday, the kiss with Win. It felt completely different than with Kai. It was honest and sweet. And Win looked so cute. He was so embarrassed and shy after the kiss. He surprised me; I never thought he could take control like that. What am I thinking?
I look at Win, only to look back at the blackboard and the teacher. He was completely staring at me. His hair was illuminated by the sun from the window. His cheeks were red and his lustful eyes will stay in my mind forever.
After school Win drags me along.
"Where are we going?" I ask confused.
"In here," he says and tosses me into a small room. We are in the janitor's room. It's tight, which is why we have to stay close.
"Is something bothering you?" He asks serious.
"No," I lie and study the ground. Wins hand places under my chin and forces me to look at him.
"What is it? Is it me?" He asks in a sad and lonely tone.
"No, its.. just.. Kai."
"Kai? That guy has been staring at you a lot lately. Did he do anything to you?" Win gather his eyebrows together that makes small unnoticeable wrinkles from a far distance.
"He.. kind of.. kissed me." He looks a bit shocked at first but suddenly he places an arm against the wall behind me, facing me, still holding the other hand under my chin. It's a bit dark, but I notice his angry and disappointed face. Win leans closer to me with threatening eyes that digs into mine. He is to close for me to focus on other things.
"Did you like it?"
"No." Once I say this he smiles and seem overwhelmed. Then he focuses on me again.
"Why did you kiss me?" I ask.
"Because I like you," he says and blush.
"But, why did you run away yesterday?" I ask a bit bewildered.
"I was.. eh.. I was too embarrassed, and you looked so.." He stops and stares at me for some seconds. I can feel my heart skip some beats. It takes some time for me to realize, but I'm also staring, staring at his lips.
"Cute," he whispers while he comes close enough for our lips to meet once more.
