A/N: 
                          
Thank you so, so, so much for all the kind words and all the encouragement I have received. I have been having a slightly hard time writing and I keep second-guessing everything I post a lot more than usual.
                          
Having said that I am really enjoying this story myself, even if it doesn't come out exactly the way I want. Hopefully, it will get better the more I write.
                          
 I really appreciate the support I get from this community. You guys are pretty darn awesome!!

                          
On with the story now!

I let out a loud growl, my nostrils expanding with an angry snort, my teeth clenched tightly, fists gripping the collar of the man I was about to yell my lungs out at, lips parting to spit out my dialogue when from the corner of my eye I caught sight of Kong once again. Perched against the wall, gaze trained on me, with Charlie standing a little too close to him, whispering something in his ear.
                          
There goes my 8th take.
                          
"Cut! Let's try this again. Arthit are you sure you are ok? You seem...off"
                          
"Uh...yeah...yeah...I am fine. Sorry about that. I will get it right next time."
                          
"Alright, let's take five everyone."
                          
I heaved out a sigh of frustration at screwing up once again. The entire day has been a goddamn mess. Ever since I snapped back to my side of the seat in the car, my mouth very much still filled with Kong's saliva, staring at him with wide-eyed shock, while he barely had a half-surprised look. 
                          
"What exactly was that about?"
                          
My mind completely reeling with the effect that kiss just had on me, a rather odd tingle forming in the pit of my stomach.
                          
"I...uh...I...thought if I kissed you then you...ummm...would break up with..."
                          
Ok, I must agree, saying that aloud sounds ridiculous even to me. The tiny expression on Kong's face vanishing completely as he rolled his eyes, a blank mask dropping over his face once again as he flicked my forehead, just like he did every time I ended up saying or doing something stupid.
                          
"I know you are convinced you have magic lips, but unfortunately you will just have to bear having Charlie around until I say so." 
                          
And just like that, he was back to normal. Typing away at his phone like absolutely nothing happened. Listing off our schedule for the day. The man even went so far as to tell me my evening was free but he won't be around cause of his date. 
                          
And there I was, mouth gaping wide, completely perplexed as to what just transpired. What the fuck was I doing moaning away like a harlot kissing my best friend? I was supposed to be affecting him and instead, he was sitting next to me nonchalantly spouting random crap while I was subconsciously trying to come up with other stupid reasons that would be semi-believable for me to kiss him again.
                          
Wait, wait, wait. I totally did not think that. Why the fuck would I want to kiss Kong. Of course, I didn't. No way. This was all for Kong's benefit anyway, right? Right!

                          
So then why did I spend nearly all day smacking my lips together just to check if I could still taste him on my mouth? Or why an intense blush crept up my neck every time our eyes would meet. 
                          
I guess that explains why it has been over two hours and we have still not managed to get through one scene. Literally, the only scene we had to shoot today. My brain still flustered with how much one stupid kiss was affecting me when I felt a cool palm pressed against my forehead. My body reflexively flinching back as soon as the scent of Kong's perfume hit my nostrils.
