I slumped against Adisa, feeling embarrassed, because my best friend walked in on me getting very very friendly with Adisa. My face hid in his hot chest and I listened to his heart calm. His arms were wrapped around me, but I couldn't help finding comfort in them. I have yet to find out if it was a good thing, or a bad one.

"George." I looked up at him an saw worry. His brows were furrowed . He tilted my head up, staring with such an intensity as if he was asking if I was okay.

I leaned in and kissed him. It wasn't a rough one, or one that would make both of us have the urge to be naked. The kiss was soft and sweet. Almost virginal and virtuous, but the feelings it held was indescribable. I can't even make out the emotion that passed through our lips.

The feeling that made my heart swell and drop at the same time. Not because I thought kissing him was a bad thing. I feared what the kiss would make me feel. It would bring a haul of things that frighten me to no end. Things I hadn't felt since Jeremy and I knew how that had been a bloody mess.

Jeremy was slightly abusive in more ways than I'd like to recall. He wasn't a saint nor was I. I had to admit that our relationship had morphed me into a very acidic person just like he was. I spiralled into depression and my self esteemed drop lower than Bush's approval rates. If Dan hadn't been there for me, I would of either been in an asylum, prison, or a coffin. Fortunately, he met a better person to beat down and hold up. I can only pray for the next woman who comes into close quarters with him.

A year and a half passed and then there I was kissing a man I undoubtedly felt strongly for, even though I had only met him five days before. Did I mention that he was raised in Africa with gorillas? All logic seems to be fleeting the more I am around him and I don't know how to feel about it. I didn't know if I should be feeling this with him or if it defies some of my morals? I just didn't know.

The only thing I knew was that I wanted the kiss and I wanted Adisa. How much of him, is another question to add to the growing list.

"Just because I'm not in the room doesn't mean I left." Dan yelled through the door. Our lips parted and I huffed indignantly.

"We're coming out, Buffoon."

"It took you two long enough. I waited so long that I started cleaning up." He sighed as we entered the room. I glanced around and saw no difference from when Adisa and I left the night before.

"Yeah. I can tell you really clean up our non-existent theatre room and the rest of our lovely apartment." I rolled my eyes at him. He stood up and hugged me tightly. We usually do this everytime we see each other, but last time I saw him I wasn't expecting Adisa.

"I missed your sarcasm so much." I laughed a little.

The men went together and hugged...manly-ish. They did that man-hug-thing that sort of resembles a hug and actually is wasy less masculine than they want it to be. I never got the gist of it, but I guess it's a guy thing and a bit of instinct, because Adisa , a wild man, can do it. It must be in their genetics, or something.
