My lips remained connected to his and I pressed my boobs against his chest, closing my eyes and enjoying what tasted like a hint of strawberry that was spread across his lips. I would have kept going if he didn't gently pull my face away from his.

I threw my hands up in realisation, "oh my God." My eyes widen as I started at him in disbelief. He stared back at me and cleared his throat, "well I better get going."

I had no words to say to him as I watched him leave my presence.

How could I have brought myself to act on my instincts, it was just too hard for me to believe. More than ever, I wished Stella would have stayed by my side all through the day instead.

I was up early the next day so I could be gone before anybody was active at the beach. I had too much to drink, my head threatened to explode from the lack of sleep coupled with the hangover I was suffering from.

I saw people passed out on the floor of the beach, so much littering the floor and the sun was yet to rise so nobody else was awake. The last thing I wanted in life right now was to have to bump into Daniel after last night.

I made it home after ordering a ride from the beach.

"You're back so early," my mom was alteady in the kitchen when I woke up and was the first to attend to me. I assumed my dad would still be asleep. It was Sunday and the one day he took away from work, he was certainly not going to spend it awake.

"Yeah I got tired so," I said, heading upstairs to my bedroom. It was on days like today that I wished I didn't live with my parents. I wanted to be alone.

"But Sarah told me there would be some morning round up and..."

"Yeah I'm, and I'm clearly home because I'm tired! Jeez, can you leave me alone?" I snapped at her.

My mom looked shocked but she only nodded, "alright then I'm sorry." She sighed, the wrinkles on her face acting in obedience to whatever facial expression she was making.

She was in her early fifties and kept a pixie cut she dyed black everytime.

I didn't mean to yell at her but I was too tired and needed rest. I locked my bedroom door when I got there and screamed into my pillow before finally giving myself to sleep.

I woke up hours later and could hear soft music coming from downstairs. I sat in bed and saw that I'd missed almost ten calls from my sister and Stella. Lazily, I headed downstairs to stuff something in my mouth because of how hungry I was.

I looked bonkers with my hair scattered in every which way. Sarah was swaying her hips to some music in the kitchen as she turned and flipped, I wondered how she could be so energetic until I saw the time, it was almost three p.m.

"No way I slept that long." I was in shock and that caused Sarah to notice my presence in the room. I held my breathe, what if Daniel told her I'd kissed him? Sarah would kill me and hate me for life but when her lips curled into a huge smile, I felt relief wash over me.

"Hey baby sis, I was worried something had happened to you, I had to call mom to let her know you were nowhere to be seen, but I'm glad you're doing alright."

"Yeah I got tired and left, what are you cooking I'm starved." All my worries were gone now that I knew she was unaware.

The next day at work, I was heading for the restroom when I felt his presence behind me by a whip of Oak like cologne. I increased my pace but he caught up with me by holding my shoulder.

"Hey, I see you've been avoiding me all day." He started out.

"I have not," I lied through gritted teeth.

"You don't have to feel awkward about what happened on Saturday." When he said the words, I turned around on my heels to look at him.

"It was the most unintentional thing ever, I promise. I'd had so much to drink, I don't know what came over me, it will never in a million years happen again for any reason whatsoever."

Jenner Inc. was a busy cooperation so I was trying not to catch the attention of passerbys, didn't want anyone sneaking in on our conversation.

"And trust me I competely understand and believe you, I'm good really. We are going to see much of each other in the nearest future, why should we allow such a silly mistake get in the way?" He smiled, and God that smile made me feel like deep down I would kiss him again if I got the chance to.

"Thank you." I sighed, feeling much better about the whole thing.

"So, how are you preparing for the trip tomorrow?"

"It's tomorrow?" I had gotten so worked up by what I had done to him that I had completely forgotten about the trip we were supposed to be heading for. "Damn, since it's a four day trip, I don't have too much to pack, I'll get to that today."

He was still walking with me.

"Have you told my sister about it?"

"Of course, she's excited that we will get to bond over it."

"Okay great." I stopped, "I'm heading to the bathroom now," I chuckled ,"so I think it will be safe to say goodbye at this point that we have gotten to."

"Yeah see you later." He smiled and I could swear that he just winked at me. He had to intentionally be playing these hot mind games with me at this point. He better stop if he wasn't planning on being in my pants.
