Featuring: Sage Sinclair & Zane Nakari (Pawn of Mine).
Zane: I told you I would get you alone in a closet one of these days.
Sage: Where's the handle-
Zane: You don't need to crowd yourself over there. Plenty of room next to me-
Sage: We need to get out. It's really dark. I can't see anything.
Zane: It makes it a little more thrilling.
Sage: (yelping) What was that?
Zane: (laughing) Calm down. Just me. Forgive me for brushing against your elbow.
Sage: Can you take anything serious for once?
Zane: I can, but being locked in a closet isn't exactly something to freak out over.
Sage: Yeah, so what if you were in here with Saffron?
Zane: ....
Sage: My point exactly.
Zane: In comparing me to Saffron, are you saying that you dislike me as much as I dislike him?
Sage: No, that's not what I meant-
Zane: Then you like me as much as you like him. Which means-
Sage: You have enough room on that side-
Zane: -we should be lip-locked already.
Sage: Is this how you get all girls to kiss you? Because it's failing right now.
Zane: Actually, it goes a lot differently. Usually a casual stroke of their face first. That instantly melts them.
(His hand abruptly grazes the skin of her face, making her jerk in surprise.)
Sage: Oh... yeah?
Zane: Then I move closer to her so that there's hardly any space left.
Sage: You don't have to demonstrate on me.
Zane: Next comes the soft whispering, just into her ear.
(His index finger trailed a tingling and barely-there trail along her jaw. She could feel him bend next to her ear, feel his cheek brush hers. She couldn't help the shudder that passed through her.)
Zane: With a compliment... (voice lowers) You're so beautiful...
Sage: ....
Zane: Now she's speechless... I take her hand, and then I move forward and let my mouth hover just over hers. Then she makes the final move, initiates it.
Sage: (pulling away after a moment of nervous hesitation) We need to get out of this closet.
Zane: You're such a mood killer!
Sage: What, like you thought I was going to go along with that?
Zane: Well, if Saffron had done it I'm sure you'd be melting all over him.
Sage: ....
Zane: Yeah, I knew it.
Sage: That doesn't matter. You and I are just friends. You were kidding, so it would be stupid to follow through with that. It was just... you were sharing with me the details of your... hobby.
Zane: Yeah, I guess so.
Sage: You were joking.
Zane: ...
Sage: Zane? You were... you were joking, right?
Zane: Let's get this door unlocked, shall we?
