XXXBy now you would expect me to be at home, celebrating with the others. But…a random event had accord. Either out of jealousy or out of pleasure, Yuri Lowell and I, Julianda Bieldilshim, have been locked in a closed room at school. Quite a dilemma, right?
XXX“Damn it, who the hell locked us in here.” he said, pounding against the door once more as he slid down to his knees. Watching his determination, I became worried of his current condition. As I moved my hand back to push myself up, I noticed a type of material that’s used for some type of blanket. How convenient, maybe it can be of use. I stood up with the blanket in my hand and walked over to Yuri, placing it over him.
XXX“…?” he turned his head to look at me. “Julia?” he then took notice of the blanket. “What? Giving this to me? Aren’t you cold?” he then took hold of me as I shivered from his touch.
XXX“It’s fine. I’ll be okay.” I said with my usual nonchalant expression. But as usual, he saw thorough me, shaking his head.
XXX“You liar. You’re freezing, you’re way colder than me.”
XXX“It’s fine.”
XXX“It’s not fine! Gees, enough trying to get out of here.” he said as he pulled me in and covered my back with the blanket. “We’ll just try to keep each other warm like this.” We’re so close, so close. I could felt my face heat up. This scent, is it his? It seems so soothing. I wonder why? I can hear…my heart beat so rapidly. Wait, is it truly mine? Or is it… I looked up to Yuri, his face seemed heated up too. Is he catching a cold? I slipped my hands between the tight space created by our bodies and placed my palm on his forehead as I did the same with mine.
XXX“Julia?” he called out to me, now gazing down on me, questioning why I had done what I did. His temperature seems normal, then again it seems a bit warmer than me but still at least it’s not too warm. I sighed of relief.
XXX“Good you didn’t catch a cold.” I said as his eyes widened. “…?” my eye lids fluttered in question. Why is he looking at me like that? “Yuri…?” All of a sudden, he embraced me. Why? Is something the matter? “Yuri?”
XXX“Gees, why are you so…that smile of yours.” he spoke as he held me tighter, closer to him. As, as I first suspected. It is his heart beat, but why is it so rapid?
XXX“Julia.” he said, breaking the silence the had filled the room. I looked up at him, as he gazed down at me once more. “Is it alright for me to kiss you?”
XXX“Kiss…me?”
XXX“Can I?”
XXX“Ah…” I looked down. I can feel it. I’m heated up to my ears. Is this love? I want…I want to know more… I nodded my head, agreeing with Yuri. He took his hand and lifted my chin, now our eyes are locked unable to look away till his face came closer as our lips have touched. This, this sensation… It’s…making everything fuzzy… I can feel the strength in my legs disappearing as I gripped onto Yuri‘s coat. But even my upper body strength began to fail as I fell onto my knees. Over and over…I can hear him calling my name… Julia…! Julia…! -ey…!
