A Call That Changed Her Entire Life

Their faces were less than one centimeter apart. Darren's warm breath landed on Bonnie's red cheeks. Bonnie held her breath as she felt the tip of his nose almost touching hers. One small nudge from either of them and their lips would meet.

Obviously, Darren wasn't expecting Bonnie to be such a light sleeper. He was frozen in that position because he didn't know what to do.

"You're awake? Nothing… Nothing," he said, trying to sound casual. Quickly, he pushed himself away and tried to create as much distance between them as possible. He sat at the edge of the bed and looked away as if nothing had happened.

"Oh really? If you weren't doing anything, then how come you were so close to me just now?" Bonnie asked as she tilted her head to the side and gave him a curious look.

"I said it was nothing. Now, stop asking." Admittedly, Darren felt a little embarrassed that he was caught red-handed. He couldn't look at her in the eyes.

"Are you sure?" Bonnie asked in disbelief and pouted her lips at him.

"What do you expect me to say then?" he asked with a raised brow. Her insistence piqued his interest and he suddenly wanted to tease her.

"Tell me. What exactly were you planning to do just now?" Bonnie asked innocently, also raising her eyebrows.

All of a sudden, Darren moved closer to Bonnie once again. The tips of their noses accidentally touched from his sudden approach.

"I was planning to kiss you," he confessed with a playful smile. Without waiting for a response, he suddenly kissed her on the lips.

When Darren's cold lips met hers, Bonnie felt her brain go haywire. Her mind went blank and lost the ability to think.

Since Bonnie was still too startled to do anything, Darren took this as an opportunity to close the gap between them even more. When his tongue darted inside her mouth, she felt as if her whole body was electrocuted.

Surprised at his sudden intrusion, Bonnie's eyes widened. She quickly backed away from him. The two of them immediately separated, both panting loudly.

Bonnie covered her mouth in utter disbelief. Her face was as red as a tomato.

"What do you think you're doing?" she asked him in a scandalized tone. This was the first time that Bonnie had experienced such a thing.
