Meet Me When I'm Asleep

Chapter 9 - Holes

Lisa's POV

It was me and Jennie, right at the top of my apartment house, watching the sunset. After a month of just calls and text, finally she's beside me again. I've never had a romantic relationship with someone, not until Jennie.

I still haven't done any of these..

"Do you regret any of it?" i asked softly. I wasn't even watching the show the sun is making. I was just looking at her.

She looked up to me and smiled. "Not at all."

"Jennie?"

"Yeah?"

I take a deep breath, before looking back into her eyes. "Jennie, do you like me?"

She closed her eyes, I was thinking of everything I wish she could tell me.

I like her. I think about her every second of every god-damn day. I think about her more often than I think about anyone. I love her cat like eyes, her lips, her scent, her personality, the way i manage to annoy her but cheer me up at the same time – I like her. I like everything about Jennie. And I don't think I can ever stop liking her.

"I...um..." she stammered. The thing about this girl is that when i starts looking at her with the sincerest look, she just completely lose it.

"You don't have to answer if –"

"I like you," she blurted out. "I really like you."

Her lips broke into a cocky smile. "Not just as a friend?"

Of course i would ask that. I knew it.

Jennie sighed and shifted her gaze back to the sky. "Not just as a friend."

I cup her cheeks, then turning her chin around to face me. "You know how I feel about you, Jennie."

She just looked into my eyes and didn't say anything.

They say actions speak louder than words, and this time I could definitely hear it out loud.

Everything about Jennie made my heart pound a million times per second. She made me feel things I've never felt before. She sent so much electricity in me with just one touch, I feel like I would explode. And im so sure she felt the same way.

"We didn't come up here to watch the sunset, did we?" she finally broke the silence.

I let out a soft chuckle while rubbing her cheek with my thumb. "You're the cutest, Kim."

Then she did the unthinkable - something ive been wanting to do since the moment we got here.

Jennie leaned closer to me and pressed her lips against mine.

It was a soft peck but i need more of her, I felt her eyelashes flicker against my skin in surprise, but seconds later she was kissing me back. I snake my hand down to her back, pulling her closer to me. The taste of her mouth was intoxicating, a taste I definitely missed since the first day i kissed her.

Her mouth lingered on my lower lip, biting it softly. I could hear her breathing heavily, while mumbling my name in between kisses.

Nothing has ever felt so perfect in my life.

And I didn't want it to end.

I wanted to stay with her forever.

We kissed for a few more seconds, before she decided to break it, just to get some air. And sanity too, I guess.
