By the look of his face, Kiara could feel that he was holding his breath and she looked at the screen only to see what she already knew was happening by Brian’s reaction. Sure enough, the movie has reached it’s so called “climax” making Brian all jumpy and even more emotional if that was possible.

Usually, she just makes fun of this movies the whole time while watching them and chastises Brian for reacting like that to those silly things. But in situations like that, she has got no choice but to comfort him no matter how absurd she thinks he was being. He was; her best friend after all and though he could be irritating at times and made her want to scream at him in frustration and was a little too emotional for his own good, he still meant the world for her.

So she squeezed his hand to offer comfort and leaned towards him so that her head was on his shoulder which made him automatically put his arm around her shoulder. He relaxed a bit though his attention was still fully on the screen and Kiara made sure that she kept her mouth shut as she knew she would say something nasty about the movie if she opened her mouth which wasn’t really a good idea at that moment. She looked at her watch again and sighed in relief. ‘Good.’ She thought. Just five more minutes and then she will be saved from all those nonsense that was playing on the screen that people call a great romantic movie! She could hardly wait to see; at that moment to her what felt like the two most beautiful words in the whole world; to appear on the screen. “THE END.”


.............................
Chapter 3

“That was just magical”, Brian sighed happily while Kiara gagged as they got out from the movie theatre, “Movies like this makes you want to fall in love even more! I wonder when that magical moment will finally arrive in my life.”

 

“Yes, I wonder that too! I can’t wait to see your prince charming with his white horse come into your life and sweep you off of your feet!” Kiara mocked.

 

“Oh please, Kiara. I just don’t see what the big deal here is. Just because I’m a guy, I’m not allowed to dream about love? What’s so wrong with dreaming about something that one believes is the most wonderful thing in the whole universe? Yes that might make me sensitive, and emotional, and overly romantic, and even illogical to some people but I just don’t see how it makes me any less of a guy or as you implied, gay. At least I’m man enough to actually express my true feelings without being ashamed of it. Trust me on that Kiara, there are a lot of guys who feel the same way toward love as I do but never express it because they’re too worried about their reputation. They think that they won’t appear “manly” if they act on their true emotion. But I’m not like them Kiara. I am who I am and I’m certainly not ashamed of myself or my feelings. And no matter how much you tease me these feelings of mine will never change. This is who I am now and this is who I am going to be for the rest of my life. I won’t change. Ever.”

 

“Wow, wow, wow! Slow down, champ! What’s with you today? Why so cranky? You never react to my teases this way! You know me. I’m always giving you craps but you always handle them with a smile. But what happened today? What happened to my sweet, charming and composed Brian who endures all my tortures happily?”

 

Brian smiled at this and hugged her. “I’m sorry Kiara. I just ticked off there for a while, though I’m not sure why. I guess I just don’t want you to think that I’m gay.”

 

“What?” Kiara pushed Brian off of herself and gave him an incredulous look. “Who told you that I think you’re gay, you idiot? I was only being sarcastic back there. Don’t you get my jokes anymore, silly? I mean seriously I have to be pretty darn stupid to think that you are gay after all those years hearing you blabbering about your dream girl! I mean, you’ve been driving me crazy talking about the girl that you are ‘destined to be with.’”

 

 “That’s true”, Brian said laughing and then he sighed closing his eyes. “Huh. My dream girl. When will she come in my life?”

 

“I guess, never?”

 

Brian snapped open his eyes. “Why are you such a pessimist?”

“I’m not a pessimist. I’m only practical. How on earth will you ever end up with any girl if you don’t date one? How will you ever find your girl when you don’t even look for her. What do you think? One day your dream girl will just knock at your door and say "Hey there, remember me? Well, I'm your soul mate so let's get married!"" 

 

Brian rolled over laughing. "Seriously Kiara, you are really something!"

 

"It's not funny Brian. Why don't you just date?"

 

"We've been through this like a million times already." Brian said pointedly.

 

"Yeah yeah I know. You don't believe in meaningless dating and will only date the girl that you'll fall in love with and all that stuff. But I still don't get your logic. I mean how can you fall in love with anyone when you don't even look at any girl with interest? I'm not sure what the thing "love" is or if even it has any existence or not but if it does how do you plan to venture it? I mean do you just fall for someone out of the blue?"

 

Brian smiled warmly. "Love is not something that you plan for Kiara, it just happens. And trust me, when the right person comes along, I'll know it. I'll know it for sure. I don't need to go through endless meaningless dating to find her. Destiny will eventually bring her to me. Just one look at her, and I'll know, she's the one."

 

"Unghhhh. Whatever. You've given me a real headache! Can you stop with your mushy talks now? My head will explode otherwise. Man, romance got to be the most boring subject ever. How can people writ books after books and make movies after movies over this stupid thing and how so many people out there are actually able to enjoy these things are beyond my understanding.” Kiara finished with a disgusted expression.

 

Brian started laughing.

 

“What’s so funny?” Kiara asked him giving a quizzical look.

 

“Nothing. I was just thinking that it’s going to be real fun seeing you when you’ll fall in love.”

 

Kiara was shocked beyond believe. “What the…? How can you…? Do you know nothing about me? Hello, It’s Kiara Jones! Your best friend Kiara Jones. The same one who’s been suffering from an incurable allergy for the “L” word from her very childhood. Seeing me falling in love! Huh, like that’s ever going to happen!”

 

“Oh it’ll happen alright. Mark my word. One day you’ll fall in love, and you’ll fall hard. You don’t know it yourself but you are someone who’s born to love unconditionally. Yes, you won’t fall easily, but when you do, you’ll love with all your might.” Brian said sincerely and then added with a teasing smile “And I’ll make sure to throw all the teasing back at your face for being a lovesick puppy then.”

 

Kiara rolled her eyes. “Yeah right, keep dreaming I won’t stop you. But FYI, you know nothing about me if you think that way. To think that you are actually my best friend! For me love is nothing but a cotton candy!” Kiara screeched suddenly.

 

Brian was confused. “What? For you love is nothing but a cotton candy? That’s surely something new coming from you.”

 

“No silly, forget about your stupid love, there’s cotton candy over there! I want one, no two, no three! Hell, I want them all! Let’s go and get ‘em.” Kiara exclaimed with a childlike excitement while pushing Brian toward the opposite side of the road where the cotton candies were being sold.

 

Brian shook his head in amusement and put an arm around Kiara’s shoulder. “You can be such a kid at times.”

 

Ten minutes later Kiara was almost jumping like a kid as she was taking bites from the two cotton candies she was holding in her two hands. Brian watched in amusement while holding the rest four cotton candies. “Mmmm. These are pure heaven. I still can’t believe that you don’t like cotton candies!”

 

“Well they are sticky.” Brian shrugged.

 

“Yeah I know why you don’t like them. I just still can’t believe it. I mean not liking sticky foods in the fear of making a mess no matter how tasty they are, that just doesn’t make any sense. You are such a neat freak.”

 

“Well, you still love me.” Brian said shrugging and then wiped the pink fragment of the cotton candy that was stuck at the corner of Kiara’s mouth with his finger. “You really are a child.” He said affectionately.

 

Kiara slapped his hand away. “No need to turn me into a neat freak as well. I don’t mind making a mess of myself.” She said proudly. Then she suddenly stopped walking and turned towards Brian. “Hey look! Has it turned pink yet?” Kiara asked with genuine curiosity as she stuck her tongue out for Brian to inspect.

 

“I don’t know Kiara, it’s too dark too see.” Brian said smiling and shaking his head at the innocence of his best friend.

 

Kiara frowned. “But…” She couldn’t finish her sentence as someone bumped into her. She looked up to see a really tall guy about the age of thirty. He was attractive and well built, probably the result of regular weight lifting. There were two other men with him standing on the each side of him who had the similar figure as that guy though they were a bit shorter than him. The tall guy, who bumped into Kiara, whistled after giving her a thorough look from head to toe.

 

“Look what we’ve got here! A real hot babe! Guess, we’re going to have some fun tonight after all.”

 

Kiara’s eyes narrowed. She gritted her teeth and tightened her fist. Brian grabbed her hand. “Don’t”, he warned in whisper, “Just ignore them and let’s get out of here.”

 

“Oh got yourself a little lover boy, did you? Well, why don’t you abandon him for tonight and come with us instead? I can promise you that you’ll have more fun with us tonight than you can ever have with him.”

 

Kiara was at the verge of losing all grip on her temper and Brian knew it. And knowing Kiara,  it’s certainly not something to look forward to.

 

“Leave it Kiara. They are not worth it. Let’s go.” Brian urged her nudging at her side and Kiara was going to listen to him and leave in peace. But the tall guy had other plans in mind as he surely didn’t know the time to give up.

 

He stepped forward and looked at Kiara’s hands which were still holding the cotton candies. “Look here. Our candy’s offering us cotton candies!” He snickered and then licked his
