Falling For Him

Chapter Thirteen

The next few weeks had been very confusing for Kai. His heart was acting...out of character. Nicolas on the other hand had let free and started codling Kai and calling him all sorts of nicknames that were messing with his head.

Kai was confused. That was the only way to describe it.

He didn't know exactly how he felt but he did know that he loved it whenever Nicolas would call him with sweet pet names or sneak in a small kiss on his forehead and cheek. The first few times it happened Kai would turn into a flustered mess and stumble over his own words. But now he would just blush and happily smile at Nicolas.

Nicolas had invited Kai for a movie night over at his house since his mom was once again out on a business trip and of course Kai agreed. He had his dad drop him off and when he was standing in front of the front door he made sure to adjust his beanie and fix his hair before ringing the doorbell.

When Nicolas opened the door he smiled widely at Kai and laughed at his red cheeks and nose form the cold.

"Come on in it's cold." He said grabbing Kai's hand and leading him into the house. "I'll get you a blanket you sit down."

With that Nicolas made his way up the stairs leaving Kai on the couch. Kai looked at the coffee table that had multiples different kind of snacks and smiled. They were all his favourite.

When Nicolas came back downstairs with a big fluffy blanket Kai stretched out his arms for it. Nic smiled at the adorable actions and sat down on the couch, draping the soft materiel over them. He wrapped his arm around Kai and pulled him close until there was no more space left.

"Mhmm I like this." Kai hummed, snuggling closer and Nicolas grinned. "Me too."

As they started watching the movie and snacking on the food Nicolas had prepared, Kai could feel his body starting to buzz. Nicolas's hand was on his bare neck and he was rubbing slow, sensual circles on it with his thumb. Kai clenched the chip bag in his hands tightly and tried his best to keep his attention on the television.

After awhile he could feel Nicolas's actions and getting sloppier until they stopped and his hand rested limp. Kai turned his head to look at him and was surprised to find his best friend fast asleep.

He scowled at the fact that Nicolas easily fell asleep after making Kai far from tired. But despite his slight grumpiness, when Kai looked at Nicolas's smiling face he couldn't help but smile.

The back of his head was resting on the couch and small breaths were escaping his parted lips. His face looked so peaceful and serene that Kai couldn't help but reach his hand to cup Nicolas's cheek. He didn't pay mind to the movie playing in the background but only on his sleeping best friends. He traced his finger down Nicolas's cheek to his jaw and then to his lips.

He bit his own lips as he continued to softly rub at Nicolas's soft pink lip that looked so...kissable.

I want to kiss him.

Kai's eyes widened at his thought and his heart lurched. He actually wants to...kiss Nicolas. Kiss his best friend.

With his heart racing he brought his face closer to his best friend's until there was only an inch of space separating their lips from touching.

"I..I can't."

Kai let his hand drop and buried his red face in his hands. He couldn't believe that he was going to kiss Nicolas.

He did want to kiss him. So badly. But Nicolas was asleep and how could Kai possibly do that to his very own best friend? He wouldn't take advantage of his sleeping state just to ease himself. But now he knew.
