"What? You kissed me without remembering the King's orders?" I said, not being able to hide the shock in my face.
                          
Her eyes went wide over the realization, which calmed down almost immediately. "No, I have completely forgotten about that."
                          
If you're playing with me Foster, I swear you're doing it right.
                          
"I'm serious." She said, pouting. 
                          
"Back the T-rex up." I said, releasing her from my arms. "You just read my mind?"
                          
She sheepishly smiled and said "I'm sorry. Not going to happen again." She raised both hands in defeat, keeping the smile on her face. 
                          
"But, it's true." She said, her face going serious. 
                          
Ba-thump.
                          
It's not a lie. I can feel it. 
                          
But, I thought it was never me?
                          
"You know, I've been pretty much the oblivious person around here, but for an empath, you're being too oblivious right now." She said as she giggled. 
                          
Damn that laugh, it makes me fall deeper than I've already had. 
                          
"I wouldn't even do the command if I don't want to." She said, shrugging. I laughed a bit, before stepping closer to her. 
                          
"So, can I claim that command now?" I said, gaining back all the confidence I have. 
                          
She smiled as she whispered "I'd do it even if it was not a command." before closing in the distance again. 
                          
I don't think any kiss can top up the first one, but I was proven wrong. 
                          
Every kiss with this girl brings the butterflies in my stomach. 
                          
Every touch of this girl gives me shivers in every part of my body. 
                          
Every second I spend with her keeps me alive, making me look forward to the future. 
                          
"So, what are we now?" I asked after the kiss. 
                          
"I don't know." Sophie said. "I can't exactly date without graduating first. Parents' rules." She explained. 
                          
More like Grady's rule, but I didn't push it. 
                          
I held her close to me, then whispered "Then, I'll wait for you. In 3 years time." 
                          
We just stood there in each others arms, for the rest of the night. None of us dared to destroy the moment, and we won't let anyone do as well.

I finally found the strength to get out of bed. I took a bath and changed into my level 8 uniform. 
                          
"You're finally done with your last midterms, handsome." I said, pointing to the reflection in my mirror. I went over to my desk and carefully placed all my gifts for them.
