Chapter 1020 - Kiss talks (cont.)

~ Los Angeles, Cliffside villa ~

Thursday

4:43 PM

Sarah and Aiden are with Sophia and Felix in the living room. It's a rare occasion that they are just sitting without doing much.

Sophia and Felix saw the Tuscan villa that Jeff and JoAnna recommended during Saturday's party and they like it very much. They put an offer and are expecting to hear back from the seller by end of the day. The whole day today Sophia and Felix were interviewing candidates for their house staff. They are confident that the house will be theirs, the seller said that he is OK with the price but wants to check that their background is clear because he does not want to sell the house to some gangsters.

Sarah is not happy that Sophia wants to move out so close to her due date, but she understands Sophia's need to have her own space. As much as they have their room here, it's not their home.

Haru hastily entered the living room and paused when he saw four people looking at him.

Sarah raised an eyebrow suspiciously. It is not like Haru to barge in like that. Something is going on. "Yes, Haru?"

"I was hoping that I can talk to Boss Aiden… for a minute… in private… if it's OK." Haru gave some eye-signals to Aiden.

"About?", Sarah's sixth sense was tingling. Something does not sound right.

"I need an advice. From a man."

Aiden's face lit up. A manly advice? He can do that.

Sarah watched Aiden and Haru walk out and she wondered what advice Haru wants… Something about fighting? Scheduling? Studying? Chaos army? Any of those he would ask Sarah… Well, maybe for fighting he would ask Aiden, but that would not be something as an advice that must come from a man... And then she remembered… Nala! Advice from Aiden about Nala! This is disastrous.

Sarah stood up and tapped her earpiece: "Eve, where are Aiden and Haru? Play me the live audio!" She needs to hear what they are talking about! And she needs to hurry there!

In the study room on the first floor underground…

"OK. This is private.", Aiden said while closing the door. "What's up?"

"Boss, teach me some kissing techniques.", Haru requested boldly.

Aiden paused while thinking: how can he teach a guy to kiss? You can learn that with experience, and there is no way that he will kiss Haru. Aiden decided to ask some questions: "Kissing? Why do you need that?"

"I made a bet with Nala. If I win, she will kiss me. If she wins, I will kiss her."

"Nice!", Aiden exclaimed and two of them high-fived. "But why do you need kissing techniques?"

"Because… I never kissed a girl before.", Haru said while his face flushed from embarrassment.

Aiden shrugged. "It's not that difficult. Just purse your lips and follow her lead."

"But… I think that she never kissed anyone before either."

Aiden chuckled. "Do you think that a technique will make it better?"

"It will not?"

Aiden's thoughts drifted toward the time when Sarah and he started dating. He remembers that even with all his previous experience, in front of Sarah frequently he felt like a total beginner. After some sweet memories flashed in his mind, Aiden reminded himself that Haru is still waiting for his answer.

"If you did it before, you might think that it will give you the confidence to swoop her off her feet. But let me tell you… if you really like her, no matter how many techniques you know, or how many girls you kissed before, she will make you nervous and trembling like it's the first time. The fact that it's the first time for both of you will only make it more special but if there are no feelings involved, it's no different than kissing the back of your own palm."

Haru listened every word intently, but he didn't understand much. "So, you are saying…?"

"Try to relax, make sure that she wants that kiss and don't force it. Let her set the pace, there is no point in rushing things. As much as you are eager to claim her lips, keep in mind that the longer you wait, the more she will realize that you cherish her as a person. And all that will make the kiss… unforgettable."

Haru thought about it for some time before thanking Aiden and going out. He still didn't understand more than: don't rush, make sure she wants it… and there is that tip that he can kiss the back of his palm… and Haru is confident that if he thinks about it more, he will get few more points. Aiden sounded confident and he said many words. There must be more to it. Haru was so deep in thoughts that he didn't notice Sarah standing by the door in the hallway.

"I am impressed.", Sarah told Aiden when she entered the room.

She was ready to storm inside and wreak havoc after that high-five, but then she heard Aiden asking questions, and he gave advices that make sense. After all, they can't stop the kids from falling in love and wanting to get closer to each other. If they try to force them apart, the kids will find a way to do it behind their backs. She agrees that the best approach is to advise them to take it slowly and to reflect on their feelings without doing anything rashly.

Aiden smiled proudly. "I am happy that I still have it in me to impress you."

Sarah confirmed. "You said some deep things."

"I was only talking from my own experience.", Aiden admitted and pulled her to sit next to him on the sofa.

"Really?"

"Mmm… I remember clearly that Christmas party at Orion Enterprise when I held you on the dance floor while you flipped my world upside down."

She smiled. "You know… that was my first kiss."

"And I felt that it was my first kiss as well. The first one that counts. You made every other girl disappear from my past, and from my future as well… there is only you.", he inched closer and kissed her lightly.

"Sweet talker." Sarah wrapped her arms around him and returned his kiss.

"Did you really… tremble?", Sarah asked after some time.

"Mhm…", he confirmed with a hum and a playful smile. "Actually, even now…" Her took her hand and placed it on his throbbing crotch. "Do you feel it? I'm trembling."

"You are shameless."

"I am yours… and I am not ashamed of it.", he said between kisses while pushing her down on the sofa with his body.
