Chapter 77: Not a big deal

Sky's nonchalant response about the "kiss this morning" caught Chris completely off guard. His eyes widened with shock. Startled, Chris choked on his drink. He sputtered and coughed, bringing his hand to his chest. Concerned, Sky reached out to gently pat him on the back, but Chris quickly raised a hand to stop him. He looked at Sky with a mix of shock and confusion. 

Had he really kissed Sky this morning? It had felt so real, but he had brushed it off as a dream.

Stammering, Chris tried to explain, "Wait, I... thought it was a dream; I didn't mean to... I mean, did that really happen?"

Sky looked at him with a mixture of amusement and understanding. "Yeah, it happened. You were half asleep, but you kissed me," he said, taking a sip of his own drink nonchalantly. 

"It... wasn't a dream?" Chris asked himself, shocked and in disbelief. But once again, he had said his thoughts aloud, and Sky faced him with a raised eyebrow.
