My Best Friend's Boyfriend is a Werewolf - EXO

New Year Traditions

“You know there is a thing call a new year’s kiss.” He said his voice suddenly husky.

He leaned towards me and I didn’t back away.

His lips met mine.

Unlike Christmas eve that I didn’t move when he kissed me this time my arms wrap around him as he deepened the kiss. His lips tasted like marshmallows and chocolate we were eating a while ago.

His arms pull me closer.

His warm woodsy citrus smell filling my sense making me dizzy.

My heart beating so fast I can almost hear it thundering.

He pulls me even closer as my hands tunnel through his hair. His soft silky hair.

I didn’t want to pull away but my lungs were at their limit. They needed air.

I pull back breaking the kiss.

Air rushed into my lungs as blood flooded my cheeks. I look up to see his eyes had turned a dark shade of brown. They look so vividly intense that it made me catch my breath.

He kissed me again softly, pulled back and smiled.

I wanted to pull him back and just ravish him there but good thing there was still a sane part of my brain intact.

“Happy new year Flo.” He said grinning. His eyes still dark.

“ha-happy new year too Kai.” I answered shaking my head trying to clear it up.

He brushed a few strands  of my hair away from my face and kissed  my forehead softly. Then my chin. His lips were getting closer again when we heard footsteps.

“Guys?! Are you here?” Lay called out.

Kai looked at me for a moment before letting me go. A part of my mind instantly protested.

“Yeah were here.” Kai answered as Butter barked from his box.

Why did he answer? Can’t he see that I wanted him to kiss me again? Why?!

“Flo come on get up.” Kai said.

I look at him , he was grinning happily. What is he so happy about?

Then a thought entered my mind. He said new year’s kiss. Of course a new year kiss. I have seen that in TV and live. So that was it was all about. Just a New year’s kiss. Nothing else.

It’s new year, a time to celebrate and all I wanted was to slump on the floor and cry. I should have known better. That is what you get for assuming Florence. You idiot.

“Hey come on up the fireworks are awesome.” Lay said from the doorway.

“Flo?” Kai asked me holding out his hand.

“You guys go. I don’t want to leave Butter all alone.” I answered.

“You can leave him there. he’ll be fine.” Lay said. “Come on Flo.”

“No you guys go.” I insisted. I was not in the mood to celebrate. Can’t they just leave me alone to let me wallow in despair?

Kai and Lay looked at each other and like all dancers moved fast. They had their hands under my elbows and hauled me up and dragged me back to the roof top. I was wishing that Butter will bark wildly but he stayed silent.

“Flo! Come on the fireworks are awesome.” Minny said taking my hand and pulling me close to the railings.

The fireworks were awesome but I was not in the mood.
