With her eyes still closed Nancy unintentionally stiffened slightly as he heard Steven gulp. It was a sound that caused a shiver to run down her spine. Not only was this reaction caused by the way the sound broke the silence surrounding them, but also was it due to the fact that this gulp probably meant something. There was a reason why Steven had just swallowed like that. What was going on inside his head? Had he just realized something? That their kisses had destroyed their friendship? Was he going to leave now?
Right at that moment Nancy almost opened her eyes to at least try to figure out what thoughts were currently racing through Steven's head. Only almost, though. She somehow managed to resist the urge, though, and kept her eyes shut tightly. She was going to find out what was going on inside his head soon enough...
But then the almost depressing silence between them shattered her plan of keeping her eyes shut. It was just unbearable to not look at her best friend. Simply unbearable. So, in the end, she did open her eyes to look at Steven and what she saw made her wish that she hadn't given in. He smiled. He smiled at her. He smiled at her and confirmed once again that their friendship would be better, stronger now after their kisses. This was so confusing. And so wrong. Especially the fact that her heart literally skipped a beat as her blue eyes followed his hand as Steven extended it to softly cup her the left side of her face. This was all wrong, so wrong. The way her cheek started to tingle at her best friend's touch was not how it was supposed to be. All this was not how it was supposed to be.
Especially the next part was certainly not how it was supposed to be. Although, right then Nancy was in no state to realize this anymore. No, all she could do was stare - in a rather dumbfounded way - at Steven's face which was approaching hers. All she could do was gaze back as his eyes locked with hers. All she could do was just sit there like somebody had stunned her and watch how her life resumed without her personal input. No, right now Steven was in control. And there was nothing she could do about it. Or was there nothing she wanted to do about it?
The moment his lips touched hers - for the third time today - Nancy had to concentrate hard to refrain from gasping at this touch. This is wrong. This is wrong. This is wrong. This is wrong. This is- Shut up! It can't be wrong when it feels so right, now, can it? This is still wrong. This is still wron- The debate currently going on inside Nancy's head made her want to cry. Seriously. Not that she did but still the urge was there. This was so confusing. This was so...she was at a loss of words right now.
After a few moments of not moving at all Nancy finally showed some reaction to Steven's kiss. She leaned in slightly. Her brain once again a complete mess, not able to form a coherent thought. Then, all of a sudden it did manage to. Nancy's eyes flew open, but instead of crawling away from Steven in shock, she simply very slowly moved her head back a bit until their lips parted again and only there noses touched slightly. A small smile tugging at the corner of her lips the 15 year old gently stroked Steven's cheek with the back of her right hand before fully leaning back against the wall again.
After a few moments of silence Nancy turned her head back to Steven again, and looking him straight in the eye said, "Steven...that's not-not right. I mean, we can't just go around kissing when we feel like it. It's-that's not how it's supposed to be. We're best friends." Then a thought struck her and this time she did gasp. What if? What if they weren't? What if they were-what if they were more than that? Glancing down at her hands Nancy added quietly, with a slight hint of agitation in her voice, "Or are we?" |
