This was never the way I planned
Shock was reflected in the grey pools of Kiyoko’s eyes as she took a staggering step back, the laughter of your shared friends from Michimiya’s bedroom a faint chatter in the distance. Shock lit every aspect of her beautiful features, from the stormy grey eyes that contained the ocean you were drowning in to the silky dark hair that seemed to have been woven by the goddess of creation herself.
Not my intention
Her hand reached out for you as pain crashed across your features like a wave, reeling back from her touch, your lips still warm with a faint burn from their collision with hers. “I’m sorry,” You stuttered, words stumbling clumsily out of your lips, fighting to hold the dam that kept your tsunami of tears contained. “That was my fault.”
I got so brave, drink in hand
You were already starting to blame the cup of cheap, light liquor from the convenience store that one of your other friends had shoved into your palm, insisting that the night would be more fun with the warm liquid gushing down your throat. You had agreed, thinking that it was okay since the next day was Saturday anyway. What a mistake that had been, you thought bitterly. The edges of your friendship with Kiyoko were already frayed away like an old straw mat with each passing second, decay taking care of the rest.
Lost my discretion
“Wait, L/N-san-”
“It’s fine, you don’t have to say anything to make me feel better.” The mumble slipped out of your throat as you took another step back, trying to conceal your hurting with an unbothered exterior.
It’s not what, I’m used to
You thought of the other two times you’d kissed- Both with boys. The sparks that you thought would course through your veins were absent, and there were no fireworks playing in the back of your mind. The thrill was muted, silenced by a raging disappointment that had resulted from expectations that touched the border of the sky and space.
Just wanna try you on
What a mistake that had been.
I’m curious for you
The electric impulse that skirted over the surface of your skin when a laugh tinkled out of Kiyoko’s lips during lunch haunted you for weeks, your mind fretting over why and why she made you feel that way. Something about her irked you, made your heart pound harder in an effort to break out of it’s prison inside your ribcage.
Caught my attention
You yelped in shock as Kiyoko let out an impatient huff, grabbing your sweater by the front, yanking you in with a kiss. Her stormy grey eyes glinted with amusement as red flowers bloomed fiercely across your cheeks, incoherent mumbling stumbling their way clumsily out of your throat.
“I kissed a girl,” Kiyoko whispered with a soft smile, letting go of your sweater as she brushed a strand of misplaced hair from your face. “And I liked it.”
Licking your lips, you blushed at the sweet taste that overwhelmed your senses, the cherry pricking the tip of your taste buds, lighting your whole body on an unnamed fire. The fire continued to spread through your skin, invisible electricity cracking across your skin as your heart threatened to burst out of your chest with a flurry of emotion.
The taste of her cherry chapstick
The smile on her lips twitched as she watched you fidget awkwardly with your emotions, the sleepover party in the room further down the corridor now forgotten.
It felt so wrong
It felt so right
“I think you’re in love tonight.” Her words made you frizzle up even more, the red over your cheeks becoming a darker scarlet like the hue of the setting sun. Alcohol drowned out the remaining rationality in your mind, muting whatever sane thoughts you had stored in those useless nerve cells that had short-circuited about a minute ago.
Shyly, you looked up into her grey eyes, giddy that you had worked up the stupid courage (Via alcohol) to pull Kiyoko aside for the kiss you had first labelled as a mistake. “I kissed a girl, and I liked it.” You whispered softly, her eyes glinting in affection as she pressed one more kiss on your lips for good measure, her words velvety and slightly breathless as she drew back.
“I liked it.”
