The wind blew hard that night as their feelings had grown stronger. The time froze on their side. Their hearts beat faster as if it were going to explode.
"What..."
Alexine was shocked to hear them so instantly. Should she trust him with her heart? She barely knew the guy in person but she felt comfortable with their exchange of messages. She could feel that he was harmless. Someone who would not break her innocent heart."I'm going to say it again. I like you, Alexine." Rainier gazed through her eyes. He was over confident this time.
Everyone already had a hint what's going on that moment. They knew that Rainier was making steps toward his girl. They just let them be. Except for Kristee who saw and heard the whole thing. Thought that she had to let go of Rainier because Alexine was going to win him this time.
"You're unbelievable, Rainier. How can you be so cool about this? I am literally shaking right now." Alexine said to herself.
She felt embarrassed of the people around them. Then Rainier touched her hand, mesmerized. They were full of emotions. Trembled lips, Alexine wanted to kiss him but she wanted to save it when people are not around.
Cold breeze. It was almost midnight and they were still up. Rainier moved a little closer to Alexine and touched her shoulders.
'Is he going to kiss me, right now, in front of this crowd? Seryoso ba siya?'
"I have to go home, Rainier. I'm sorry!"
Alexine ran away from him as fast as she could. She did not know how to react. It would be her first kiss "on the lips" with a guy even though she used to date someone before. She wasn't ready yet. They just met. Everything was going fast.
Then they almost kissed. An inch away from him.
Kristee saw it all. She saw how Alexine rejected her crush. How could she ignore someone like Rainier?
If it was her, she would give in easily. She had been dying to touch his lips again. She bet that Alexine did not know how to kiss him. It means that Kristee was probably his first kiss. What a shame.
