Chapter 29 : The after kiss affect.

Third person point of view

It was dark by the time they left the hotel. They were completely silent all along the drive. None of them spoke. They walked in to the house. " I had fun today and.... I will take a shower first ". Leo said without even looking at Luke and walked upstairs. More like escaped. Luke sat on the couch thinking of what happened. He closed his eyes and the image came to his mind. He opened his eyes again. He didn't know how to face Leo. But Leo was the shy one, so he is fine to some extent at least. But then who wouldn't be affected by a kiss ? He ran a hand through his hair. He wondered what Leo was feeling.

Leo stood in front of the mirror to look at his face and the picture came to his mind again. He touched his lips and could still feel the warmth and softness of Luke's lips. He pulled his hand away shaking his head. He shouldn't think of it. He ruffled his hair. He prepared mentally to act normal. During the whole shower, he kept telling himself to act like nothing happened and not stutter. When he walked out of the bathroom, he saw Luke come into the room. Leo sat on the bed while Luke entered the bathroom. Leo sat there fiddling with his fingers.

When he heard the door open, he took his phone into his hands and acted like he was doing something. Luke watched as Leo was using his phone. He didn't say anything and sat at the edge of the bed. He felt a bit tired after the work he did for the whole day and then the party made him even more exhausted. He slept on the bed and saw Leo still on his phone. " Are you not sleepy ? "

Leo turned his head to look at Luke who was looking up at him. " Not really ". Luke nodded. " But don't stay up for long. You've had a long day too and we need to go home tomorrow. Sleep as soon as possible ". " Okay.... But are you fine ? You would have had so much work and even the party ". Luke smiled at Leo. " Are you worried ? " Leo's eyes went wide. " Who is worried ? Why are you twisting my words ? You also said the same just now. Are you worried about me ? "

Leo got a taste of his own medicine. Luke nodded. " Of course, I am. You are my wifey after all. I will definitely care for you ". " You ! Just sleep. You are sleepy right ? " Luke chuckled. Leo got up and switched the lights off and came to the bed. " Sleep now ". He slept too with his back to Luke. He felt a hand around his waist pull him closer. He was turned around as well. He was looking at Luke with wide eyes.

" What the hell do you think you are doing ? " Leo stared with wide eyes. His heart skipped a beat when he saw Luke right in front of him and right there, in reach. Luke only held him tighter. " Let me go ". Luke shook his head. " What the fuck Luke ? Just let go already ". Leo was vexed with his heart. Why was it beating so hard ? It would be too embarrassing if Luke notices it. He can just dig a hole for himself. " Why ? You are shy ? "

" Shy, my foot. Leave me ". Leo trying so hard only made Luke want to tease him even more. " No, I will not ". " What is wrong with you today ? Are you sick ? Are you drunk ? " Luke laughed at Leo's flustered expression. " I told you I will kick you out of the bed if you act like this. You think I will not do it ? " " I thought you were fine with me sleeping beside you. But it looks like you want me to be on top of you ? " Luke said with an evil smirk. Leo was shocked at it. " You pervert. Please leave me ".

" Just sleep like this. I promise I will not move much closer or do anything except this hand around you ". " Why though ? " Luke knew Leo would get shy, seeing him like this made his heart leap. " I thought you were fine with this, seeing we always end up like this in the morning ". Luke chuckled and Leo could feel the vibration of Luke's chest as he laughed. " That is diff-" Leo looked up shocked stopping mid sentence.

" Eh ? You know it ? It is not on purpose. It just..." Leo didn't know what to say. He wondered if he was really not liking it. He was gradually getting used to it maybe. It has been a while after all. Putting aside the fact that he finds it a bit surprising when they are in that position almost every morning, he definitely didn't find it uncomfortable. That much, he knew it. But doing it like this knowing and fully awake, his heart was not listening to him anymore.

Leo was trying to wriggle out of his grip, but Luke kept making it tighter. Leo gave up at the end. " Promise me you are not going to do anything ". " I promise ". Leo gave a suspicious look. Luke chuckled at how doubtful Leo looked. " Come on. I won't. I promise ". Leo nodded meekly. " Try something and I will kick you for sure ". Luke smiled and closed his eyes. He loosened his grip. He didn't hold him that tightly.

Leo kept looking at Luke's face. He could feel Luke's breathing even down and it was calm and stable. He wondered how fast he fell asleep. He might have been pretty exhausted to fall asleep so quickly. He raised his hand to push the strands of hair away from Luke's forehead. His hand slowly went down to Luke's lips. He used his thumb and rubbed his lips with the least pressure; as light as a feather. He could see the small smile on Luke's lips. He smiled and pulled his hand away. So he can be a good guy too. He closed his eyes to fall asleep too. Soon both were in dreamland.

Kayla didn't know what to do. After what she witnessed, she didn't go back to the party. She fled from there without even telling anyone. She was burning with rage. She couldn't describe how angry she was. She was filled with killing intent. She threw another vase. She screamed loudly, but still couldn't control herself. She needs to think of something to make sure that they break up. No matter what she decided to make it happen. She picked up the glass of water in front of her and drank it. She finally went out of the room.
