First Kiss

[ Few moments before ]

As Helana was getting late for her class, she left the reception area quickly and bowed her head to the Security Guard at the entrance of The Santos Group but suddenly she halted and remembered that she forgot the receiving list.

Helena turned abruptly and her movement was so fast that she stumbled and was going to fall. She closed her eyes instantly and waited for pain. But a few seconds passed and she still didn't feel any pain.

Helena opened her eyes and saw that she was clenching her finger on black jacket to save her from fall and unknowingly kissed a man.

'what just happened?'

Gabriel was talking to Liam about their meeting related to the next project. As a new project for construction of a Mall was going to be held and the last date of submission of bids is next week.

As this is a mega project for all the companies and every construction company wanted to participate in it without any fail. Since competition was tough so he didn't want any room for mistake.

Gabriel was so busy in a talk that he didn't notice a girl before him was suddenly turned. He bumped her and as he saw she was going to fall, he instinctively secured her in his arm by grabbing her waist. As they were so close that he almost brushed her lips.

He looked at her angelic face as she closed her eyes and was pulling his jacket. She smelled heavenly, the fragrance of rose and lavender as he always wanted to keep to himself.

If Gabriel wanted, he would have stepped back as she was already calmed down, but some part of him didn't want to part himself from her. His lips still touched her and he gripped his hand tightly around her waist and held her securely as if he would lose her in a moment.

When Helena opened her eyes and saw an ocean blue eyes were staring at her and observing her every little movement. Her heart skipped a beat. Her breath became uneven and she started to feel breathless. Even though those eyes seemed cold and held authority, she felt something else as if they were calling for her to dive in those ocean eyes.

They both didn't even notice how much time passed and people were ogling them and still they were in their own world.

As the CEO of the company, Gabriel also did not even bother about his employees as they started taking their pictures, he just stayed still.

It was the first time for all employees to see his boss with a girl that was too kissing her. Some ladies were jealous as if they wanted to be in Helena placed kissed by their boss and some people were feeling happy for their boss.

Helena was out of breath so she just opened her mouth little to get more oxygen to calm herself, but because of her small movement, their tongue touched each other and they jolted back as if they felt some electricity passed on their body.

Suddenly all the sweet moments were gone and they are back to reality as if someone had broken the magic spell.

Helena feared as she looked at those fury eyes, She felt suffocating and couldn't stand in those stares, without looking back she ran for her life as if she was chased by some Devil. She was so scared for what just happened.

When she assured that she was far from The Santos building, she screamed "It was her first kiss , God damnit and stolen by some unknown man".

Luckily Helena didn't forget to get her motorcycle otherwise she would have missed her class although she forgot to collect the receiving list.

Gabriel was so angry at himself that he couldn't step back in time and allowed himself to touch her more than was necessary but his anger was misinterpreted by a small girl as she ran so fast. He also shocked for what just happened

He stared at her departing figure until she was out of his sight, then he composed himself and started walking towards his car without even looking at his employee.

Joseph opened the gate for Gabriel to settle down on the back seat "Young Master, Good morning" as he said and closed the door and went to the driver seat and started to run Bentley on the road.

Liam also sat in the passenger seat. He was also shocked and said to himself ' if Gabriel wanted to kiss a girl so he should have told him. He would have arranged something. It was an impromptu decision to kiss a girl ..High. I didn't know my friend was into this kind of thing'.

The whole journey was silent for Liam that didn't happen in the past 12 years. He and Gabriel usually talk about business to utilise time in car. He thought maybe Gabriel was thinking about an upcoming project as it was a big deal and searching for new ideas.

Little did he know, Gabriel was not at all thinking about his business.

Gabriel, who closed his eyes and thought about the incident just happened a few moments ago.

It was the first time for him to touch a girl, he clenched his finger unconscious. He was always repulsed by the female touch. Only he knew how he maintained his cool image in every meeting and any public places. It was very difficult for him to stand in a place where females were present there.

He couldn't do anything about his condition. He had consulted many doctors but the response was the same. His childhood experiences and trauma had engraved in his mind that he couldn't forget.

He could only withstand with his Grandma without any disgust feeling.

Why?

because his Grandma saved him from those horrified childhood and nightmares?

He didn't know the answer.

But today something happened which was beyond his expectations not just that he touched a girl but also kissed her.

'Am I curing?' Gabriel asked himself.

He liked her lavender fragrance, liked her petite face and her slim figure just perfect for his embrace.

Her mouth was so sweet that he wanted to devour more and even craved for more. He didn't like sweet dishes but now he wanted to eat.

He blinked several times for what just he thought and muttered himself ' Maybe, I'm celibacy for my whole life that's why this kind of thoughts are coming. This is not good ' and he slapped his head for his unruly thought and sigh.

Liam and Joseph both were bewildered because of Gabriel's actions. This was the first time for them to see Gabriel slapping himself.

Today was the first day for so many things they had seen in their boss's lifr.

Little did they know, there were so many first had to come.
