Chapter 34: First kiss

After a moment of silence, a glare of light blew a loud bang in the sky. First, it was a small beam of light that flew to the sky and then, suddenly, like magic, there were thousands, covering the entire sky with golden blooming flowers. In the next moment, a few more beams blew toward the sky and the flowers doubled. The colors were so bright that it almost felt like daylight. 

It was like a waterfall of gold, making one feel euphoric with just the sight and amidst that waterfall of gold, Zaelek's hand wrapped around Akira's neck and pulled him closer. 

Akira couldn't help but meet Zaelek's eyes and for the first time, it seemed as if there was a hint of emotion in those dark orbs. 

Akira's breath got caught in his throat and although he knew exactly what was going to come next, he didn't dare pull away. In fact, he couldn't deny the fact that his heart raced a little in anticipation. 

There was only an inch or two left between them.
