Lucas'' eyes seemed to be beaming with expectation even in the dark, so Melody could not bear to let him down. It would make her feel guilty if she disappointed him.
"Alright. I don''t have anything to give you today, but I''ll get you something tomorrow, okay?"Text content ? N?velDrama.Org.
Lucas lowered his head a little and stared at her seductively. "But it''s not my birthday tomorrow. If you don''t have a gift now, why don''t you improvise?"
"Improvise?" asked Melody as she blinked. "But how? We''re in the cinema, and there''s nothing here..."
Before she could finish her sentence, Lucas pressed her head toward him and sealed her lips with a kiss.
Surprised by the warmth she felt on her lips, Melody stiffened and her eyes widened. She could not understand why Lucas would kiss her, but it surprised her even more that she...did not mind being kissed.
Lucas did not deepen the kiss. To be honest, it was more like he was grazing her lips with his. Even so, it still made her heart race.
"Hurry up! The movie has started." Someters walked into the hall hurriedly.
When Lucas heard the noise, he immediately let go of Melody, and the two of them sat properly in their seats as if nothing had happened. Melody was not paying attention to the movie at all. Her mind kept reying the scene of Lucas kissing her. She could feel herself burning up.
Lucas, too, could not bring himself to watch the movie. He pulled at his tie irritably, feeling hot as well.
He had no idea why he kissed her. Although he did have some wine at the party, he was well aware that that little amount of wine could not make him drunk. However, the moment he looked into Melody''s eyes, he suddenly lost his mind and kissed her before he even realized. It was as if he was drunk.
He knew that was an affectionate kiss, but what could it mean?
Melody was not in the mood for the movie, but she could not talk to the man sitting next to her, so she started to feel bored and awkward.
She saw the popcorn next to her hand and decided to eat some to relieve herself from embarrassment. At the same time, Lucas also reached out to grab some popcorn. Their embarrassment heightened when they felt each other''s hand.
Melody was shocked by the warmth of his hand, so she raised her head and looked into his eyes unexpectedly. They turned their heads away again the minute their eyes met.
"Ahem! Popcorn?" Lucas took the popcorn bucket and handed it to Melody.
Melody hesitated for a moment before epting the bucket. "Thank you."
That was the end of their short conversation. Melody pretended to watch the movie while eating popcorn. She hated to see anything go to waste, but in the end, she still had no idea what the movie was about, even though they bought tickets for it twice.
"That was so sad. The main characters were so in love with each other, but they couldn''t be together in the end."
When Melody overheard other''sments about the movie, she could not help but feel even more regretful. She might not like this movie, but it sounded like a nice movie after all.
