The One

10

I WAS stiff and my mind was spinning as I felt Zhenya's soft lips on mine again. I was more aware of his kiss this time.

"Open your mouth." He said, his warm breath tickling the side of my lips.

I dizzily opened my mouth and Zhenya took my lips without warning. I let out a moan as Zhenya moved his lips unto mine afraid that he would eat me alive. The way he moved his lips and tongue in me made me melt. I balled my hands into fists as I was already out of breath.

I gasped after Zhenya finally pulled his lips back.

I blushed when he smiled at me.

"Don't hold your breath, breathe through your nose and move your mouth with mine." He said like an expert and grabbed my hand and placed it on his shoulders. "And you can touch me."

My face burned with embarrassment. Suddenly it felt so hot and my eyelashes quivered due to excitement. It was my first time so I did not know what to do.

I nodded and Zhenya stole a quick kiss on my cheek.

"So cute." He said and took my lips again.

My heart was pounding as I tried to do what Zhenya said. I tried to move my lips with his lips. I even moved my tongue with his also. I wound my arms around his neck. It was hard to turn my body completely towards Zhenya because we were in the car.

Zhenya placed his hand on the back of my head and kissed me as if he was devouring me. My body was already hot, my lips throbbing, and my face was flushed when Zhenya pulled back, licking my lips one more time.

"Are you okay?" Zhenya asked.

I couldn't look at Zhenya's eyes in embarrassment and I had the urge to hide away. My body had no strength left and it felt so hot. I could still not believe that Zhenya was my first kiss and that he was here grinning at me like someone in love.

I only nodded. I felt so happy. I just want to go back to my room and scream to my pillow.

"You looked flushed." He smiled.

I pushed his chest away from me and I felt how hot his skin was behind his clothes.

"Who wouldn't?" I said and Zhenya chuckled.

Zhenya properly sat back in his chair and handed me again my coffee.

IT FELT like a dream. I wasn't gay but I got swept off my feet with Zhenya. All I could think was him that I must be going crazy. It was Saturday and we would meet each other to watch a movie. It was my first time and I didn't know what to wear. I just finished my bath and with a towel around my waist, I stood in front of my closet looking at my clothes.

My closet has two main dividers vertically, the left side was for clothes that could be hung and the other side was four layered racks for folded ones. The only new clothes I have were the new set that mom bought for school so the rest were like three to four years old. I was glad that my body didn't change that much.

After ten minutes, my closet was a mess and the best thing I could find was a grey shirt under a blue, white, and grey plaided three button-up long sleeve and black jeans.

Well, it was the best I could come up from my closet and I quite liked how I looked but maybe Zhenya would find me nerdy. I combed my hair and for the first time, I wanted to use wax because my hair looked so wild. I have these stubborn bangs that point in every direction. I pursed my lips and my eyes focused on my face in the reflection.

I do have a prominent jawline that stands out a little, my lips were a little thin, my nose was also average looking just like everyone and my eyes were kinda dull because I was never a happy-looking person, thick eyebrows and I hate how I have fair skin. Well, I did try going out to the sun for a tan but I ended up having rashes all over my arms, legs, and chest that mom had to rush me to the hospital.

I was the most plain-looking guy out there and it made me question what Zhenya saw that he liked about me.

I went out of my room and saw mom outside sweeping the yard with her yellow sundress. She already knows since I told her last night, she even thought I would be with a girl.

"Morning, mom." I greeted her.

Mom stopped sweeping and walked to the front door where I was standing and smiled. I always find my mother pretty not because she was my mother but because she is. Her dimples were a killer when she smiles and her bright eyes were like sunshine. She was the bravest mom for me, I never saw her being sad when faced with problems. She always tells me that everything will be alright. That we will be together always and I have always been thankful that she was my mom even if sometimes we could never have anything. I love her.

"Morning, honey. I'm quite dirty. What time is it? How about breakfast?"

"It's still early but I don't want to be late and I'll grab something to eat on my way. Did you have breakfast already?"

"Yes. Go and have fun, honey."

"Thanks mom."

I kissed her cheeks before leaving and went to the station. Zhenya asked if he could pick me up but I refused because the flat that he was staying in was located in the middle of the city and I didn't want him to travel thirty minutes just to pick me up. He insisted that it was okay but I flatly refused.

We agreed to meet in front of the theater. It was weekend, a lot of people want to watch movie and I hate crowded places but I agreed because I wanted to meet Zhenya during the weekend and spend the whole day with him. I was about to message him after trying to look around in the crowd for five minutes when I finally saw him standing in front of a superhero movie poster and looking more handsome than the male lead in the poster.

Zhenya was wearing a grayish-brown long-sleeve shirt that outlined his body and denim jeans. He dressed simply but all eyes were on him. After my full body scan, I returned my eyes to his face and our eyes met.

Welp!

He just caught me scanning him making my face heat up and he smirked.
