Just as Akira nodded his head, Josh felt his breathing slightly falter. He wasn’t sure why, but this felt so different compared to the kiss earlier. They were in his room, next a window which showcased beautiful stars in the sky. It was quixotic.
Instead of doing it and not informing Akira about what was going on, Josh decided to tell him what he was about to do. What Sangre said made him stop from doing anything without explaining.
“This kiss won’t be like the other ones though Akira.” Josh traced his fingers against the other mans neck a bit more, watching his own movements as he did. “It’ll be a few seconds longer, I’ll move my lips slowly and if you can, you can try mimicking me. Don’t worry if you think you can’t do it at first, just try. Understand?” Josh asked, knowing he might be a bit anxious about it but he knew he’d become calmer once they finally tried it.
