Love at First Kiss

It's a fine morning for the first day of Aya's class. She woke up early so that she wouldn't be late for school.

Her cell phone rang when the alarm struck.

"Five minutes, five minutes..." Aya said to herself while her eyes were closed and she reached her phone on the side of her bed, and turned the alarm off.

Later on, her phone rang again after five minutes. Aya opened her eyes and stood. She went to the bathroom to brush her teeth and take a bath.

After taking a bath, she immediately put on her uniform and fixed herself. She wiped her hair and brushed it with a comb.

After that, she grabbed her bag from the small table and went out of her room.

She saw her mother sitting by the table, while drinking some coffee.

"Oh Aya, you'll go to school now?" Her mother asked her.

"Yes, mother," she replied.

"Wait, have some breakfast first," her mother insisted.

Aya grabbed one loaf and took a bite from it.

"This is fine. I'll go now, I might be late," she told her mother.

Then her mother gave her some money, "Alright. Take this. It's your allowance."

She received the money and put it in her pocket. She finally said her good bye and immediately went out of the house.

Aya waited on the side of the road for a bus. She finally climbed to one after some minutes of waiting. Then, she alighted when she reached the school.

Aya will be facing a new life and a new school. She's studying at Zenia University, where it is one of the famous universities in the main city. Aya's family is not rich unlike most of the students who go to this school. However, she was able to get a scholarship, and tuition became less.

She's fourth year of high school this school year, and she's eager to study more so she can graduate and be top 1 in the class. By means of that, she could find a good job for her future, then she'll be able to help her family.

Aya is just a simple girl, not that pretty, and not popular in school. She's quiet and her focus is her studies. Due to her perseverance, she got good grades in her exams.

She's not allowed to have a boyfriend and love life is out of her system. She's not interested in having a relationship. She just wants to do her studies and not be interested in boys.

But destiny cannot be interfered...

When Aya reached the school, she noticed that there were many girls in groups and swarming outside the gate. They were shouting and it appears that they were swooning over someone. Their voices were so high pitched and it really caught her attention.

She decided to walk near them to know what was happening. The necks of the girls were elongating like it was someone very important.

Aya saw a luxurious black car that stopped at the gate. The door of the vehicle opened and someone stepped down from the black car. Then the girls shouted and they cannot get hold of their admiration for this person. their stomachs had butterflies and they almost jumped to their feet.

When she was almost near the gate, Aya saw the face of the boy, wherein the girls were lost in their voices. It was as if they saw a celebrity and they were all ready to welcome him.

He's tall, handsome, and has a pointed nose. He has very attractive eyes and has a strong appeal especially to girls. Almost every girl in the school goes crazy for him, who wouldn't? But Aya does not feel the same.

"Its... Devil!" Aya told herself while piercing her eyes through him.

"Huh, I thought it's going to be a good day, but it's not," she added.

He's Hiro Chan, the 'Prince Charming' of the school as they say.

I don't know why many girls like him. This Hiro is so boastful! Yes, he's handsome, rich, knows how to dress to get the attention of the girls, but his attitude? No! His attitude sucks! Just a bad boy right there.

He ignores all the girls, and the girls in their cutest eyes waits for him in the halls, watches him as he walks and the short murmur becomes a loud talk. Everybody makes a room for him as he takes over the space. He's used to it, and he never cares for anyone.

Even many girls give him gifts of sorts and of course, letters, he doesn't take the time to open them, but he just puts them in the trash.

But even with his trash attitude, or he's such a snob, many girls still like him. They couldn't go near him because one look from him would make them tremble and in one incident, a girl fell unconscious! That's absurd, but it's the truth.

But not all the girls fell for him, like me. Yes! Me! I will never ever like him! He's so much pride in himself! When I see him, my blood heats up! He's so annoying! He makes my day bad! Why do I have to see this awful guy today, hmmp!

After that, Aya immediately walked inside the campus.

But, while she was walking in the vast area and trees of the school, she collided with someone making her tripped to the ground. They both fell to the grass. A split-second like in the movies slows down the time as they land on the ground.

Their eyes locked with each other and their lips touched, in which they didn't mean to, while lying on the grass.

Aya could not move, because the man was on top of her. Their lips touched each other. She could feel his lips on hers. She couldn't believe that this guy was on her face! The tense in her eyes was evident. It was so fast! She suddenly felt like sweat was dripping on her forehead, even though there was none.

"This... Devil! Hmmp! Shocks! This shameless guy! He got first on my lips! Grrrrr!" Aya shouted inside her thoughts.

Few seconds later, while their lips were still joined with each other, they became aware of their locked eyes. She inhaled Hiro's fragrant breath.

Aya tried to push Hiro, and Hiro shortly stood from where they accidentally fell.

"Shame on you! Why did you bump into me?" Aya told him while she stood. She brushed off her uniform and made sure no dirt was on her. She avoided his eyes while looking at herself.

"Me? It's you who bumped into me!" Hiro replied while he curled his brows.

"Ah, so you're putting the blame on me?! Huh? You're the one who suddenly shows up from nowhere... bumps and k-kisses me!" Her nose flaring and her eyes glaring at him.

However, Hiro just stared at her with his piercing eyes from her head to toe.

Then he said, "Hey miss, I don't have time for this. Stupid girl!"

Then, he suddenly got his bag from the ground, turned around, and walked away. It was as if that moment didn't happen.

"Hey, wait, where are you going? We're not finished talking yet! You moron! Devil!" She shouted that he could've heard her words, but it seems he didn't even bother.

"Shame on him. That daredevil! Ugghh!" Aya said as she stomped her feet on the ground.

She wanted to scream but the words that came from her mouth were, "He is my first kiss! Why?! Of all of the people, why does it have to be that devil?! My gosh!"

Aya can't do anything about it, because Hiro just left her. She wanted to slap him so bad, her hands cold in her sudden anger. Unfortunately he had gone nowhere. He just left like that.

Meanwhile, Hiro thought of the incident.

"That girl! Tsk! Why would she be blocking the way?!" He said to himself while walking, his posture was straight and his face was serious.

Hiro immediately went to his classroom. His classmates stopped what they were doing when they saw him. The girls screamed in their seats, and their eyes were on him.

He went to his seat, it was at the back, beside a window. It is his favorite seat because he could relax his mind.

While he was looking at the window, he thought of what happened.

It's his first kiss, and it was with that girl.

Hiro drew a deep breath. He doesn't have a girlfriend. Even though many girls like him, he just ignores them. Whether a girl is rich or pretty, he is turned off once he knows that she likes him. Especially the girls who give him letters, or gifts and scream when they catch sight of him. He is irritated and disgusted with girls like that.

He hasn't met the girl of his dreams. The one who he will fall heads for. Because of that, he has never kissed any girl in all his life.

"Just now!"

Aya sluggishly continued walking towards her classroom. It felt like she was dragging a heavy bag at her back that she wasn't expecting something good to happen that day.

She was a bit late, because she even searched for her room number, and finally she found it too. She arrived there with their teacher already inside. She greeted his teacher and introduced herself to the whole class.

"All right Aya, you may take your seat there at the back," the teacher said.

He pointed the chair at the back.

"Thank you Sir," Aya replied with a trying enthusiastic tone.

But Aya suddenly stopped. She was walking towards her seat when she saw the person who will be next to her.

"Hiro! It's him!" she thought. Her eyes widened.

She was shocked to see him, she said to herself, "Look now, I'm really having bad luck, tsk! This demon!"

She slowly went to her seat, she had no choice. No other chair was available. Hiro just ignored her, and he was busy staring at the window with his blank face, no emotions, just looking at the sky and the trees. He was listening to music with his headset on.

"It's so annoying, of all the seats, why did it happen that I sit here?" Aya said to herself. She rolled her eyes, but no one saw, not even the teacher.

She also ignored Hiro, until the whole class was over. Aya thought of going to the canteen to eat.

However, as Aya was walking down the hallway, someone suddenly pulled her arm. She was surprised, and she saw Hiro holding her. His grip was tight and hurting.

"What? Let me go!" Aya struggled and tried to pull her arm from him.

But Hiro just stared at her in a very mean way, his eyes piercing through her. He continued to pull her up to the stairs.

"What? What? I'm in pain! Hey, that hurts!" Aya shouted while still trying to escape.

When they reached the rooftop, Hiro just let her go.

"What's the matter with you? Why did you bring me here?" Aya asked while caressing her arm. It became slightly red, a bit of pink, like when someone gets fresh scratches, but this one was from his grip.

"You know what? What is my problem? You just broke my laptop!" He almost gritted his teeth, then he handed her his laptop.

Aya opened it and it was really broken. The LCD broke and it was like a glass that fell onto the floor. She glared at him and returned his laptop.

"So, what if it's broken now?" Aya told him, still with her glaring eyes.

"What's wrong with you? Don't you know how much this is?" Hiro replied.

"I didn't break your laptop, and so I don't have anything to do with that!"Aya said while she shook her head. In her mind she didn't expect that it'll be broken and it was just an accident.

When Aya said that, she immediately turned around, but Hiro immediately grabbed her arm and leaned her against the wall.

"Where do you think you are going? You have to pay me! This is worth 50 thousand! Pay me now!" Hiro said angrily while staring at Aya intently. His eyes were like fire and his stare made her uncomfortable.

"Wait, 50 thousand?! I don't even have five hundred, then 50 thousand? Oh oh. It's not my fault, you know! If you hadn't hit me, it wouldn't have been damaged!" Aya bowed her head.

"Tsk! So, you're telling me an excuse? You cannot get away with that," Hiro said with a hint of insult in his voice.

Hiro stared at her sharply, and brought his face close to hers, it was a few inches away from her face.

He held her tightly by her chin and said, "If you can't pay me, starting today ... You're mine! I own you! And everything I say and I want, you will have to obey! Do you understand?" Hiro said, his voice was demanding.

"Huh? W-What?!" Aya was stunned by what Hiro just told her.

"Tsk! Stupid girl!" Hiro said, still annoyed and he suddenly kissed Aya on the lips. His lips pressed against hers.

Hiro kissed her violently, as if Hiro was punishing her. So, Aya struggles with it, but Hiro puts more force on kissing her lips. Hiro grabbed her two hands, and leaned against the wall, and he continued to kiss her.

At those times, she could do nothing but wait for Hiro to finish kissing her on the lips. "Oh my gosh! This is insane! Why is this happening to me?" Aya thought to herself as she stared at his smooth face.

A few more minutes passed, and Hiro continued to kiss Aya on the lips. Aya could hardly breathe and she felt her lips hurt. Hiro felt that Aya was out of breath.

So he decided to stop what he was doing. As they parted their lips they both gasped for breath. Hiro stared at Aya's lips before looking into her eyes. She couldn't believe what he just did! First it was just an accident, then this! He kissed her without doubt!

As Hiro stared at her intently, his eyes linger on her when she suddenly slapped Hiro hard. A loud slap was heard in the air.

With its intensity, Hiro's face shook to the left and his cheeks turned red.

"You !!!" Hiro exclaimed.

Hiro glared at Aya again and kissed her one more time. It was brief but intense. Like the heat of the sun, Hiro's lips torches hers. Aya raised her hand to slap Hiro again, but Hiro blocked it and grabbed her hand. Aya would have slapped him with the other hand, but Hiro also grabbed it.

He then leaned Aya against the wall again. His body was almost pressing against hers, and his grip to her was with so much force. She felt he was in control.

They both glared at each other.

Hiro was the first to speak, "If you don't follow me, that's not the only thing that will happen to you! You understand?" Hiro scoffed at her.

Aya nodded, afraid of what else Hiro would do to her. After saying that, Hiro let go of her and walked away. Just like their first encounter, it was like no major happened. He kissed her! Twice! Well, it was already the third time. What a badass!

Aya was left stunned by what happened. Her eyes stared down, and she felt the need to cry but no tears came from her eyes. She wanted to just whine around, stomp her feet, but she knew that wouldn't help.

She didn't know what to feel. Mixed emotions filled her body. It was whether to get angry or afraid of Hiro's threat to her. Her heartbeat was too strong, it was throbbing fast. Neither it skipped a beat or slowed down. She didn't expect it to happen to her, on the first day of her class!

Gradually, her knees weakened and she slowly sat down. Aya doesn't know what to do, whether to follow Hiro's words or not. Her heart sank and this time she cried over what happened. She covered her face with both of her hands and continued to sob.

"Why me? Why does it have to be me? It's not my fault. He's a devil! Really annoying! Grrrr!

He already stole my 'first kiss', then will he make me his assistant? Or perhaps his slave?! He's so annoying! That jerk! Grrrhh!" Aya fumed and shuddered.

She can no longer eat lunch. Her eyes became swollen. She just cried and cried on the rooftop, where no one would think someone would be sobbing at that place, especially at noon time. The wind is the only one who can hear her, who blew her skirt, she held it with her two hands, and the wind left.

Aya didn't know if she would return to their room, as she knew Hiro was there. To think that Hiro is her seatmate, and her face is pinkish red with her crying. Surely her classmates will notice she had cried. She wiped her tears with a handkerchief, and stopped.

She thinks that Hiro might be asking to do something she can't do, and that he might punish her. But Aya, eventually, still decided to enter the room.

She slowly entered, like someone who tiptoes at night, and saw that Hiro was not there in his seat. Her face beamed when she knew of this and quickly sat down in her chair.

Soon the bell rang, the class started again. She saw her other classmates rushing in. They giggled and went inside the room with their glistening faces. And she saw that Hiro had also entered, they looked at each other for a second, and shortly they both diverted their eyes unto other things.

Aya bowed her head, while Hiro went to his seat. They both ignored each other till the class ended.

Aya hurriedly went home yesterday, because as much as possible, she wanted to be out of reach from him. She ran away from Hiro, her feet tired from her fast pace.

She heard him calling her, but she did not turn around and just walked quickly. She wouldn't dare look back as she wanted to just go home.

Next day is another challenge to embark on.

"I can do this!" Aya encouraged herself.

When she entered the school, she went straight to the locker room and took a book.

But Aya was unaware of Hiro's presence around her. She was surprised when she closed the locker, she saw his face as he leaned against the locker and smiled.

"Good morning!" Hiro greeted me with a wide smile on his face. His mood is good, with no sign of anger on her.

Aya didn't know what to say in shock, her stomach turned knots, she just uttered, "G-good morni-".

She didn't finish what she was going to say, as Hiro immediately kissed her, at the same time holding her nape. There was a tingling sensation she felt from her nape down to her spines.

That kiss was not violent, it was gentle. It wasn't like yesterday that she almost lost her breath.

Aya looked at Hiro's face, she saw his eyes closed as he kissed her. So, she closed her eyes and felt his sweet kiss on her.

She didn't try to escape from his sweet touch.

She felt the emotion of Hiro's kiss. He gently kissed her red lips. Those lips that were like the petals of a rose. She felt her heart beat faster and his kiss on her sweetened. Like a fresh honey, it was sweet, and she felt this was unusual. Yesterday, he was demanding of her, but now?

His kiss with Aya also ended immediately, because other students were coming. Hiro and Aya stared at each other again. She could see herself in his sparkling eyes.

"It's really sweet!" Hiro grinned at her.

She answered it with a stern look.

"How dare you!" Aya said angrily and she would have slapped him, yes again, but Hiro stopped her. Aya has so much courage in her that she would not think a second before slapping him.

Hiro leaned over and whispered in his ear, "Because yesterday, you ran away from me."

At that whisper, she felt his warm breath, which sent goosebumps all over her body.

Hiro drew a smile on his face, as if he was teasing her, then he let go of her and walked to their room.

Aya was left where she stood and just wanted to whine and blame herself, because she did nothing to stop Hiro from kissing her.

"That Devil, he's really annoying! It's annoying! Grrrhh ..." Aya said to herself. Her hands turned to a fist, and if she wasn't in school, she would scream.

When Aya entered the classroom, Hiro was already sitting there. She ignored him. She sat down and put her things away. She was still disgusted with what Hiro had done. Aya glared at him, but not once did he take a glance at her.

"Hey, this Devil, doesn't really care! Tsk!" Aya mumbled in an irritated tone. Her brows furrowed and relaxed her face. She tried to fake her reactions throughout the class. She was beside this thief! Always stealing kisses from her.

Until the whole class was over, Hiro and Aya ignored each other.

Some of their classmates approached her, and invited her to eat in the canteen. She turned to Hiro first, but he was also talking to their other classmates. So, Aya agreed and stood up, along with the rest of her classmates.

They went to the canteen and bought something to eat. Karen and Jeff sat down together, and they talked while eating.

"You know classmates, we're really lucky because Hiro became our classmate!" Karen said in her high pitched voice, containing her smiles while eating.

"Yeah, he's really handsome. I really have a huge crush on him. Who wouldn't?" said Jeff. He's a homosexual.

"I'm not just having a crush on him, but I think I'm already in love with him!" Karen giggled.

"They're crazy, of all of the boys here in the school, they're going gaga over that devil!" Aya thought to herself.

Karen turned to her and asked, "How about you Aya, did you have a crush on him too?"

"Huh? Me?... Uh no," Aya replied in her relaxed manner.

Jeff was surprised, and he leaned closer to the table, and said, "What? Why don't you have a crush on him? He's such a beau."

"Yeah, why don't you? Aren't you even sitting next to each other?" Karen's eyes piqued, waiting for her answer.

"Ah, he's not my type," Aya replied.

"Is that so? I just hope I'm sitting beside him just like you. Uh, if you don't mind, who's your crush or what kind of guy do you like?" Karen asked.

"Um, no. I'll focus on studying first," Aya told her, slightly avoiding Karen's gaze at her.

Suddenly her cell phone beeped. She immediately took it from her pocket and read the message.

"Go to the rooftop, bring me some food. Hurry up! Now!"

Aya was surprised by what she had just read, she wondered whose number it was, because it was not in her phonebook. She didn't let them notice that something was bothering her.

"Maybe it's the Devil? But how did he know my number?" Although Aya was puzzled, she immediately said her goodbye to her two classmates, after reading Hiro's message.

"Ah, classmates, I'll be the first to leave, is that okay? I'm still going somewhere," Aya told the two who were still eating at the table.

"Wait, you haven't finished eating yet," Karen said as she was trying to stop her from leaving.

"Ah, no, it's okay. All right, I'll see you later," Aya waved to them.

Then Aya took her belongings and her drink and went to the food counter to buy food again.

Karen and Jeff wondered why she bought some food again and requested it for take out.

So the two looked at each other. Their eyes showed curiosity on what they saw.

"Do you believe she doesn't like Hiro?" Karen asked.

"Hey, I don't know. Maybe she likes someone else. Just let her be. Let's not push the idea that she also likes Hiro," Jeff said.

Aya hurriedly went up to the rooftop. She was catching her breath when she opened its door and Hiro was there, who was standing and waiting.

"Why did you arrive just now? What time is it?" Hiro immediately asked her.

"Ah, there are a lot of people queuing at the food counter and the rooftop is very far away from the canteen! For your information!" Aya replied stiffly. Her breath was restless and she was visited by the wind, it temporarily soothes the heat from her body.

She handed the food to Hiro. Hiro took it and sat on the side and looked at the food brought by Aya. Then he looked at her with a frown, his brows curled.

Knowing what he meant, she said, "Ah, that's all my budget can handle. Sorry."

Hiro reached into his pocket, then took out his wallet and took a thousand and handed it to Aya.

"Here, oh...," Hiro handed her the money.

"Wow! This is a huge amount!" Aya gasped as she smiled and held it. She was ever careful with it as she stared in disbelief. She hadn't had that amount to have as an allowance in a day.

"Just keep it, so you can buy more next time," Hiro said while he took a bite of the burger.

Then Aya put the money in her pocket. She is about to turn her back, but ...

"Oops, where are you going?" Hiro asked her.

Aya sighed, then she turned around again and said, "Master, if you don't need anything, I'll go back to the classroom."

"Who told you can leave now?" Hiro stared at her.

"Erm, I said, I'll stay here first," Aya said smiling as she sat down as well.

"Come here!" Hiro commanded.

Aya went near him as he ordered.

He then handed the food to Aya.

"Okay, now, feed me!" Hiro commanded her.

Aya paused in shock by what he said.

"Huh! You have your hands right? Why would I do that?" Aya objected.

Hiro brought his face close to Aya's as if he was going to kiss her again, saying, "Why, you don't want to?" Hiro said softly.

Aya immediately understood what he meant to her, so with a smile she said "Ah, no! Okay, I'll do it. I'm going to feed you, open your mouth, Master!"

Hiro opened his mouth while still staring at Aya and put the food in his mouth.

"For the first time, I just fed that Devil! Tsk!" Aya pondered in her mind.

But while Hiro was being fed by her, he just stared at her, whether he was eating or drinking.

Aya felt something strange in Hiro's stares. Now that they were close together, she examined his face closely. Smooth, red lips and puffy eyes.

Upon examining that, she suddenly felt nervous. Her heart throbbed when she noticed it.

Aya also couldn't understand why she was suddenly nervous at Hiro's stares. That it seemed like she's an ice melting, and he was the sun, melting her.
