Temptation

Description

Alister Azimuth was in deep trouble.
He already had a girlfriend who he never really cared for, but he was struggling with his intense feelings for her best friend.
The problem was, he and Caroline had been the best of friends for several years now ever since his girlfriend introduced them. The moment Alister laid eyes on the girl, he felt something click and felt his heart skip a beat. He didn't want to call it love at first sight, but that's what it seemed to be. Something just told him that she was the missing link in his life. Whenever he was with her, he would have a sense of excitable calmness inside him. He could just be himself and she was perfectly fine with that, and in a sense, she was quite liberating to be around. Caroline was a very interesting individual. Not only was she beautiful as hell with a captivating pair of bright blue eyes, but she was also a girl with many talents, and she was a complete paradox of a lombax. She always made him laugh, and was clever and sweeter than Breegus nectar. She was also very open with him, and would share her problems with him when the pressure valve broke, which he greatly appreciated. In the rare event that she would shed tears, he would plead her kindly not to cry, and he would give her a gentle hug in which she always returned either by embracing him back or clinging to his shirt.
However, she was also incredibly stubborn, and could be quite immature at times, especially with her poor sportsmanship, her severe self-consciousness, and her bizaare habit of blushing whenever he made any kind of physical contact with her, but that was perfectly fine with him. Actually, despite all of Caroline's not-so-endearing qualities, Alister never once teased her or hurt her feelings, and this was because he loved the fact that she wasn't perfect. Her beautiful imperfection only proved to him that she was real and not just a celestial figment of his imagination. The two of them had a very special friendship, even though he struggled for so long to keep his feelings for her to himself. They shared both good, bad and downright weird times together as the best pals in the universe. No matter what mood he was in, he always cherished her company, and she seemed to enjoy his quite a bit as well. She was always there for him whenever he needed comfort. He would be very open with her and say what was bothering him deep down only to her, since she was the only one he really trusted. She would always ask the same thing whenever he was feeling down, and she would say it with a genuine look of concern, curiosity and care in her eyes:
"What's the matter, Al? You need a hug?"
Regardless of what his answer would be, she would always warmly embrace him before he could say anything, and by that point he would already be holding her close to him as if she were a fragile teddy bear. Whenever he was with her, he felt the overwhelming need and desire to pull her into his arms and protect her from every kind of danger the universe had to throw at them. Often, he wondered if they could be together forever, and what it would be like in the event that they could actually spend their lives as a couple. However, he never even knew for sure whether the strong feelings inside the pit of his stomach were genuine or just a phase that would eventually pass.
Today, while he and Caroline were hanging out, she ran into some trouble with a gang and got injured, ending up unconscious. Frantically, Alister treated her wound and he carried her over to his girlfriend's house and asked if she could stay for the night. Being her best friend, she accepted, and so he tucked her into a bed in a spare bedroom. He got out a chair, sat himself down, and kept a close eye on her. He knew it wasn't really necessary, but he just wanted to make sure she was okay. He didn't want the first thing she saw to be by herself in an empty room. He wanted her to wake up in the presence of someone who cared for her well-being.
Her stomach and chest moved up and down normally. Caroline was breathing fine, and so for now she was just sleeping like a baby.

God she's so cute.
He thought as he watched her sleep, looking just like a child. He was delighted that she was alright, because if something ever happened to her, he would just break apart. He probably wouldn't be able to eat or sleep.
Alister felt a heavy amount of guilt that he couldn't protect the girl who made him feel whole like he always wanted to. He felt so awful that she ended up unconscious in the first place, and all he wanted to do was say sorry to her over and over again.
Caroline, I am so, so sorry I couldn't protect you...
He thought with a heavy heart. Suddenly the fire in the pit of his stomach grew to enormous proportions, so much that he was fighting to control his impulses like he was able to for so long. He got himself up and sat beside her on the bed, taking his left hand and gently caressing the side her face, his thumb slowly feeling across her bottom lip and strands of her brown hair softly brushing through the back of his hand. Her face was soft and warm, like velvet.
Alister was despicably angry at himself for what he was doing to a poor, defenseless sleeping girl.
Dammit what am I doing?! If I kiss her now I'm going to regret it for the rest of my life!
He thought as he bit his lip almost to the point of bleeding.
Then again, if I don't I won't get another chance. It's the only way to know for sure if I really do love her.
He pondered the difficult circumstance for a little while before he decided to go for it. "Reward over consequence", he was always taught. As he started leaning down towards her, his heart rate began to accelerate and could actually hear it pound in his ears, feeling himself blush a little. As he inched closer to the girl, he could smell the faint scent of waterlily on her. Several times he considered aborting the operation.
I don't ever want to hurt our friendship, or you for that matter. He thought,
But I...
He just couldn't take it anymore. He parted his lips slightly, built up the courage to go that extra inch and lightly kissed her on the lips, their mouths seeming to fit together perfectly. Right away, his whole body felt like it was on fire in a pleasant way, and his stomach was overflowing with butterflies. Accomplishing his mission, he finally hoisted himself off her with reluctance, in a way that would make sure she didn't wake up. He was so taken by what just happened that he wanted to do it again. He put his hand over his eyes, blushing as he came to a near-horrible realization that seemed too good to be true.
Crap... I guess I never realized how deeply I've fallen in in love with her...
He deeply took a quiet breath, trying to keep himself from panicking in his dilemma.
Why do I have to be such a fool??
He insulted to himself. He knew that not kissing her would make him feel stupid as well, but he still couldn't believe the dangerous stunt he just pulled. For all he knew he could've been caught, and then he would have gotten into even more trouble than he was already in.
But kissing the woman he loved more than anyone else in the entire universe was well worth it.
The reward far outweighed all of the possible consequences.
Little did he know that Caroline was fully conscious and aware of Alister's recent actions, and did nothing to stop him.
More than that, she actually WANTED to be kissed by him.

Juicy stuff >w<
My first time writing something romantic, so bear with me if it sucks.
So I'm getting into Angel Sanctuary again, as that's where this little scene's from.
That's Alister's hand by the way, and the thumb is going across the lip. Oooh! X3X3
She's unconscious/asleep.

The theme is forbidden love, and it's such an interesting theme to me for some odd reason. :P

This is a doodle I did last night when i was bored. Besides, I really like Kaori Yuki's artwork.

lol this was the first story that was going on in me and :icongangster-dog:'s RP's ^w^
