CHARLENE'S POVI knew he wasn't going to be gone long. A little while later, however, I heard him enter the room again. "Charlene," he said quietly, placing a hand on my shoulder. "Are you awake?" I opened my eyes and looked at him. I was wearing one of his t-shirts, and he was standing over me. I couldn't help smiling. "Yeah, yeah, I'm awake." His eyes were so beautiful. I leaned forward slightly and brushed our lips together gently. It took us both by surprise, because we hadn't expected such tenderness out of either of us, given our friendship. But once I registered the warmth of his kiss, I relaxed, leaning into it slowly. His arms wrapped around me and pulled me close. He kissed me deeply, and it made me feel dizzy. My brain short circuited a bit from the feeling. I moaned softly and kissed him back, trying to get closer, but Xavier kept pulling away and breaking away the kiss. He rested his forehead against mine. After a minute, he whispered, "It's okay. Go back to sleep."
