KEEFE'S POV (1st person)
----------
                          
I
                          
've been awake for the past hour, but my body refuses to do anything. It has been a week since the Valentine's celebration, and today is the last day of midterms. 
                          
Meaning, I get to see Foster again. 
                          
To say that I'm so hang up over what happened that night is a complete understatement. 
                          
I'm totally still living in that moment.

"What's wrong?" I asked her. Her mood shifted from happy to doubt, then to something else.
                          
She smiled and shook her head. I wanted to make sure that nothing's really wrong, but she suddenly said "Hey, you have a leaf stuck on your hair."
                          
"What?!" I exclaimed. A leaf? On THE HAIR? "Remove it before it destroys The Hair!" I half-shouted. 
                          
Foster was wearing heels that time, but I still bowed my head a bit so she won't have a hard time. 
                          
At first, she did look like she was taking a leaf out of my hair, but then she did the unexpected. 
                          
Her hands slowly went down and cupped my cheeks. She closed her eyes as she slowly closed the space between our lips. 
                          
She kissed me. 
                          
What? Am I sure this isn't a dream? What if I'm just imagining things? Sophie Foster? Kissed? Me?
                          
My mind went into chaos, as my heart went into hummingbird pace. When I felt that she was about to pull away, I also did the unexpected. 
                          
I pulled her in, kissing her back. 
                          
The moment felt so right, with all her emotions practically surging towards me. 
                          
Her hands slowly went around my neck, playing with some strands of my hair. My other hand traced her back, slowly pushing her more closer to me. 
                          
This is what I've been waiting for so long, and I know better than screwing it up. 
                          
It lasted for a couple more seconds, none of us wanting to pull apart. But, at one point, we'd have to. 
                          
Her lips separated from mine, which already made me feel different. I can't go a day without imagining us kissing, and now it's more impossible. 
                          
If this means I'd die today, then let me just enjoy the moment before I do.
                          
She slowly opened her eyes, and I could see pure bliss in her eyes. She smiled, the smile I've always wanted to see from her. 
                          
"So, was that you doing the command earlier?" I asked, not expecting for more. 
                          
She looked at me with a puzzled expression, asking "What command?"
