Chapter 131 You kissed me
Chapter 131 You kissed me
Elara stirred in her bed, her head throbbing with an intensity that felt like a thousand drums pounding in unison. Slowly, she opened her eyes, squinting against the morning light that streamed through the window.
A wave of dizziness washed over her, and she groaned, her hand moving instinctively to her pounding temples. The memories of last night were still fuzzy, as if they were hiding in the depths of her mind, waiting to resurface.
“Ugghhh…” She groaned in pain. This was the first time she had ever consumed alcohol, and she didn’t drink a small amount either, she drank glass after glass without stopping, it was to the point where even Vaan got worried.
Drunk Elara was a completely different person. 𝓃𝗈𝔳ℯ𝐋𝐧𝑬xt.𝕔𝑜𝕞
However, now the sober Elara had to face the consequences.
And one of those consequences was the unbearable pain in her head that made her feel like her head would simply burst apart. It was so intense that Elara didn’t even want to open her eyes anymore.
“Oh ho? You finally woke up!
You slept quite a lot for someone who didn’t wish to sleep and stubbornly wanted to keep talking.
‘I won’t talk to you if you don’t talk to me!’ you said.”
Sudden, Elara heard a voice.
A voice that overpowered all the headache and dizziness she was feeling and she was jolted awake.
Her eyes widened as she looked around, taking in her surroundings. It didn’t take her long to realize that she was not in her own room, she was in Vaan’s room. Panic surged through her, she instinctively pulled the bedsheet closer to her as her face turned red.
Then, like a kid who had been caught making a mistake, she glanced at Vaan with the most innocent yet guilty look ever.
Vaan was sitting on a nearby chair, observing his fiance’s expressions with a playful smile on his face.
How could he not?
After giving in to her demands and doing whatever she told him to do for the entire night, it was finally time to reap the rewards.
It was time when the sober Elara would recall what the drunk Elara did and all the expressions the sober Elara makes during the entire process, Vaan was going to burn them all into his eyes.
“Good morning, Fiancee~”
Seeing that smile on his face, a fresh wave of embarrassment coursed through Elara’s veins.
“V-Vaan!” Elara exclaimed, her voice trembling as she met his amused gaze.
Vaan’s smile only widened, and he leaned back in his chair, his eyes dancing with amusement. “Did you sleep well?” He questioned. “Well of course you did, you put on quite a show last night, after all. You must be tired after that.”
Elara’s cheeks turned a deeper shade of red, and she lowered her gaze, unable to meet his eyes. “W-What did I do…? I… I don’t remember much,” she admitted sheepishly.
“Of course you don’t.”
Vaan chuckled.
Then, he looked right into his finace’s eyes and,
“You jumped right on top of me and kissed me saying how much you loved me.
It wasn’t just a normal kiss either,
You kissed me on the lips.”
Vaan spoke as his face turned red, then, with a playful look on his face, he tried to ‘avoid’ Elara’s eyes and,
“I was quite embarrassed.”
“W-W-W-What!?”
Elara’s eyes widened in shock.
“I-Is that true!? No! T-That can’t happen! I c-couldn’t have done that!”
“Are you saying I am the one who kissed you on the lips?” Vaan questioned.
“Ye- w-wait No! T-That’s not what I meant! But I didn’t kiss you either!”
“So I am lying?”
“…”
Elara turned silent.
She had no answer to Vaan’s words. Her memories were fuzzy, however, this didn’t mean there was a big blank in her head, she knew the things she did yesterday was something she would normally never do, however, she was absolutely sure that she wouldn’t kiss Vaan on the lips.
That was simply not possible. She was not brave enough, even if she was under the influence of alcohol.
B-But…
Vaan said that she actually did kiss him…
Did she really…?
How could she do something like that…?
How cou-
“Alright alright, don’t beat yourself up like that, I am just joking, you didn’t kiss me.” Suddenly, Vaan laughed out.
A big sigh of relief came out of Elara’s mouth, then soon, her relief turned into anger and, s
“Why would yo-”
“I was the one who did it.”
Vaan completed his sentence and Elara froze.
“W-What…?”
Her anger flushed out in an instant, with her eyes wide open, she glanced at Vaan, wanting more explanation.
Vaan’s smile widened, he then jumped onto the bed and crawled towards his fiancee with a playful look on his face. Elara’s heart rate shot up. Her eyes were stuck on Vaan, the closer he got, the stranger she felt, however, even then, she couldn’t just look away and watch as her fiancé crawled all the way from the corner of the bed to her.
“Y-You kissed me…?” she questioned.
“You were just so defenseless that I couldn’t control myself,” Vaan spoke, then, he playfully licked his lips and,
“It was quite tasty.”
Elara’s face turned as red as a tomato.
Vaan could swear that he saw smoke coming out of his head but maybe that was just him seeing things.
Things like that don’t happen in reality.
Of course, he wasn’t done with his games yet,
“Your forehead I mean, kissing it felt quite refreshing.”
“M-My forehead?”
Elara’s expression changed as she looked into Vaan’s eyes.
“Hmm? Why do you look so surprised?” Vaan tilted his head in confusion.
“Y-You were talking about kissing my forehead?” Elara questioned.
“Of course, what else would it be?”
Vaan questioned back with a confused look on his face.
“O-Oh…” Elara muttered.
There was a strange expression on her face.
It was… relief and… disappointment…?
“Wait, what were you thinking about, Elara?” Vaan questioned.
“N-Nothing.” Elara shook her head as she looked away. Vaan, however, followed her gaze and appeared in front of her eyes,
“C’mon now Elara, don’t try to hide it from me, tell me,
What were you thinking about?” Vaan whispered like a devil.
“I-It is n-nothing.”
Elara’s voice trembled and then, Vaan decided to drop the bomb,
“Were you thinking about a kiss on the lips?”
“…”
Elara didn’t say anything, however, seeing how her skin got even redder, her thoughts couldn’t be any clearer, not just to Vaan alone, even Elara didn’t bother defending herself.
“Haha~ you are thinking too much, Elara.
Our first lip-to-lip kiss, there is no way I would do it on the day where I know you are not in your right mind and would forget everything the next day.
How would that be any fun?” Vaan spoke.
Then, a playful smile appeared on his face and,
“A special moment like that, I would want you to be in your right mind so you can recall that moment whenever you want in your life,
For example,
The you right now.”
Vaan spoke and then,
He sealed Elara’s lips.
In just a single moment, Elara’s brain stopped functioning. Her body froze, there was no change in her expression, no surprise, no embarrassment, nothing, everything happened too quickly for her to react properly.
It was as if her soul was sucked into a completely different world.
Elara only came out of her reverie when she saw Vaan looking at her with a smile on his face.
“See? Now this is the moment none of us would ever forget,
Our first kiss.”
He spoke.
Of course, Vaan may be acting all brave right now and his bluff was working since Elara’s mind had too many things to intake to notice, however, any normal person would be able to see a slight blush on Vaan’s face as well.
He was embarrassed as well, his heart was beating like crazy as well.
Elara’s lips, they felt… soft… and precious.
It was a feeling Vaan couldn’t properly describe.
Honest, his mind was still thinking about it however, right now, it was more important to be the one controlling the situation. After all, Sober Elara wasn’t someone who would take the lead, he needed to keep playing that role if he wanted this relationship to continue any further.
“O-Our first kiss…”
Elara muttered with a blank look on her face.
Seeing her expression, Vaan suppressed his feelings and with a confident smile on his face, he looked into Elara’s eyes and,
“How was it? Did you enjoy it?”
Of course, he wasn’t really expecting an answer knowing how shy Elara was, but then,
“Do it again.”
She muttered.
“…what?”? Vaan blinked, unable to comprehend what his fiancée just said.
“I didn’t feel it.
Do it again.
Kiss me again.”
Elara spoke, her voice and her eyes clearer than ever.
Vaan gulped, this time, he had to admit it.
He was intimidated.
He didn’t know Elara would be this direct.
Was this really his Elara?
Was she still under the influence of alcohol?
Many questions filled his mind,
However, right now, he didn’t care.
Everything else was secondary, right now, he had to make the move.
Thinking that,
Vaan leaned forward and their lips met again.
