Ryan didn't move. He froze in place. Could not take his hands off Naomi, could not pull his face back and avoid Naomi's lips.

'N- no way… she- she wants to kiss me...?' Ryan thought. He closed his eyes. 

Naomi unconsciously continued bringing her lips forward. She pulled her lips forward, making a pout.

"You are not worthy of being my daughter!" Suddenly, her mother's voice echoed in her mind. A drop of sweat followed down through the back of her neck.

"I should have never given birth to you!" Satomi pushed Naomi against a table, "You are useless! You are a mistake!" she continued shouting.

"You will be engaged to the Watts's son before you graduate."

"Don't get in a relationship, or you will have to pay for it."

"Stay away from boys. If I find you with one I will…."

"You will be married to Watts's son as soon as you graduate. And that's final. I don't need any overly pampered actions from you."

"At least don't embarrass me this time, marry their son… and I will forgive you."

Naomi's eyes flashed open. She was so close to Ryan, that the only thing she saw was his plain skin which she had never seen this close to before. 

She could feel Ryan's breath hitting her lips. She closed her lips, they slightly touched Ryan's lips. She came back to her senses. 

"Ah!" she pushed herself away from Ryan, her head hit hard on the wall behind her.

Ryan opened his eyes to see Naomi in front of him. 'That soft sensation...' The only thing he could remember was the little part of Naomi's lips that brushed his lips before going away. 

"Uh..." Ryan let go of Naomi's hands. She turned around. 

"I- I am sorry," Naomi muttered. 

"Hm. It was my fault." they both had a little blush forming on their cheeks.

Not for the sake of gaining Exp points from kissing Naomi, he just wanted to kiss her. Not out of lust, not out of love either. 

"I- that just happened, because of the heat I guess,"

'It's cloudy outside.' Ryan thought, rubbing his temple. 

'Fuck me. Really. Just fuck!' Naomi bit her lips. 'I can't make another mistake here.' only if, only if she had pushed herself a little further, she could have kissed Ryan.

Although no one would have seen them kissing each other, she knew it would lead to something bad in the future. Somehow, her mother will find out about it. She will end up pulling Ryan into her family shit. 

They could target Ryan, her mother will, no question, scold Naomi; but she will not leave Ryan alone either. 

'I can't.' tears formed under her eyes. 

'W- why is she crying? Am… I… not good enough to be her first? Or is she sad that I might end up hating her?' Ryan was confused. 

He has never been in an awkward situation like this before. Yes, yes he had kissed Gwen before but they never stopped after coming halfway. They went the whole log.

He doesn't know what would be right to do in this situation. He didn't even see situations like these in anime either which just makes it harder for him. Naomi was no less.

The lack of their knowledge about 'How to handle the awkward situations' just made the situation even worse. 

"I- I am really sorry," she broke. 

"Naomi," Ryan stepped forward, "Don't cry, man." he grabbed her by her shoulders.

"I- I- I can't- I can't- make a mistake…." 

'So kissing me is a mistake huh? Fine.' 

"Take your time. I will be waiting for you in front of the girls' room." Ryan turned around. 

'There's nothing I can do about it now. I don't know much about Naomi. Yeah, things would have been different if it was Doc or Gwen but Naomi…. I can't possibly handle her.'

"Ah-! No!" she moved on her instincts and grabbed Ryan's hand, "Uh!" she quickly dropped his hand. 

"What…?" he asked. 

"D- don't go." Ryan peeked over his shoulder. He saw Naomi's little eyes fidgeting all over the floor.

"Alright. I just don't wanna make this more awkward." she grabbed his hand again.

"Okay." 

'What does she mean by okay?' 

If it was Doc. he would have just given her a tight hug without thinking twice that would have just calmed the situation between them. 

If it was Gwen…. He would have done the same. Give her a hug, or force her a kiss which she left in between. That would have solved the problem.

But with Naomi… she was never intimate with Ryan, neither was he. Leave intimacy, they both didn't even look at each other with lust, passion. They just saw each other as mates working together to make things work for their own good.

Then suddenly, one day, she tries teasing Ryan which backfires on her. Ryan teases her instead. When she sees those plump lips in front of her eyes, she finds it hard to ignore, hard to avoid. 

In the end, she tries kissing Ryan. What would possibly go wrong? What would happen if they end up exchanging a kiss? They don't have any lovers, they are not in any relationship, then what would go wrong?

Images of her mother flashed through her mind which threw her off the track. 

'I can't. I can't make another mistake and end up bringing Ryan into my life's shit. He will have to suffer from hardship just because of me.'

She knew the problems of Ryan's life. He faced a brutal breakup two months ago. Because of his love for his ex, those wounds were still new. 

He was constantly targeted by the Mafias. He was attacked frequently. And if she kisses him, she would end up increasing the troubles in Ryan's life. 

"Are we good?" It's been a few minutes since the incident. Ryan asked Naomi who was still embarrassed.

"Hm. Again, sorry. I don't know what happened to me- I just- it happened-"

"Do you like me?" that caught Naomi by surprise, her eyes went wide, "Let's make it clear," Ryan added.

She looked down, away from Ryan's eyes, "I don't think I do," she shook her head.

"Okay. then do you love me?" Ryan made sure to keep straight eye contact with Naomi.

"HUH!?" Naomi almost screamed.

"....." Ryan's eyes widened when he saw blush forming around Naomi's cheek, "No way…. You do love me-"
