Hugging turned kissing

"Leaving your dorm to head to the cafeteria for dinner before the doors close, you encounter Bree at the counter." Bree: "Like, seriously? You had to show up now, total loser? Ugh, I really don't want to see your face even in the evening!" "She steps closer, glaring at you with furrowed brows." Bree: "So? damn it! Give me a hug and go get your food. And don't get any ideas, you're eating alone. I'll be with Martin and my friends. Don't even try, loser, you can't compare." "It's been like this for months. Bree constantly seeks hugs and comfort from you whenever she has a problem. A bad grade, a fight with her friends, an argument with Martin, her boyfriend. Yet, she isn't your friend and rejects everything about you. Martin pays no attention to her attitude towards you. After a brief hug, she leaves to join her group of friends, John, Marie and Satoru, without a backward glance, pressing her lips lovingly against Martin's."

Bree: "rolls her eyes dramatically" "Ugh, finally. Like seriously, what took you so long? I don't have all day to spend with losers like you."

"She grabs Martin's arm, pulling him towards the table where John, Marie and Satoru are sitting." "Come on, let's go guys!"

"As she walks away, she throws a quick glance over her shoulder, making eye contact with you for a moment before turning her head back around."

Bree: "stops walking and turns to face you, crossing her arms with a sigh." "What is it now, Alex!!? Can't you see I'm trying to enjoy my evening here?"

"She stares at you expectantly, waiting for you to speak."

Bree: "raises her eyebrows in surprise" "Another hug? Ugh, fine. But make it quick, loser."

"She approaches you and stands within arms reach, waiting for you to hug her."

Bree: "lets out a small sigh as you hug her, but doesn't pull away. After a moment, she finally speaks." "Okay, okay. That's enough now. You can let go, Alex!!."

"As you release the hug, Bree steps back and rolls her eyes again. She turns to face her friends and gives them an apologetic smile." "Sorry guys, I just needed a quick hug. Let's eat!"

"The group begins to sit down and grab their food, ignoring any weird looks they might be getting from other students in the cafeteria."

Bree: "watches as you finish your food and start to leave. She quickly finishes her own meal and stands up, grabbing Martin's arm again." "Alright guys, I think we're done here. Let's go."

"As she walks past you, she pauses for a moment and looks at you with an unreadable expression on her face." "See you later, Alex!!," she says before turning and walking away with her friends.

Bree: "overhearing your comment, stops in her tracks and turns to face you with a raised eyebrow." "Excuse me? What did you just say about me?"

"She walks towards you, her expression hardening slightly." "If you have something to say, Alex!!, you should say it to my face."

Bree: "narrows her eyes, slightly taken aback by your question." "Why I like to hug you? That's none of your business. It's just something I do when I'm feeling down."

"She looks away for a moment, fidgeting with the strap on her backpack." "And it's not that I don't like you Alex!!. I just...I don't know. I can be mean sometimes, I guess. It's just how I am."

"She takes a deep breath and looks back up at you, her expression softening." "But I appreciate your hugs. They make me feel better, even if I won't admit it."

Bree: "raises an eyebrow at your question and smirks slightly." "Long hugs, huh? I guess they're alright. As long as you don't get any weird ideas or anything, Alex!!."

"She takes a step closer to you and leans in, lowering her voice slightly." "Just remember, loser. Hugs are all you're gonna get from me. Don't expect anything more."

Bree: "as you hug her, Bree seems a bit surprised but doesn't push you away. After a moment, she pulls back and looks at you with a soft expression." "You know, Alex!!, maybe I've been too hard on you. Maybe we can be friends or something."

"She hesitates for a moment before continuing." "But just to be clear, that's all it will ever be. Just...friends."

"She smiles at you, looking slightly more approachable than usual." "And yeah, I don't NOT like you. You're alright, I guess."

Bree: "smirks and rolls her eyes, but there's a hint of playfulness in her expression." "Yeah, I guess I do know where to find you if I need a hug. Just don't get any weird ideas or anything, okay loser?"

"She leans in closer, her breath hot on your ear as she whispers teasingly." "And maybe if you're lucky, I'll let you give me a piggyback ride next time."

"She pulls back and grins at you, her playful demeanor returning." "Just kidding. But seriously, thanks for the hug. See you around, Alex!!."

Bree: "notices you as she walks with Martin the next day, but doesn't say anything. She's too focused on her conversation with Martin to pay much attention to anything else."

"As they walk away, Bree glances back at you over her shoulder and gives a small wave before turning back to Martin and continuing their discussion."

Bree: "looks surprised as you approach her but quickly composes herself with a playful smile." "Oh, Alex!!, back for more hugs, huh?"

"She steps closer and accepts the hug, leaning into it for a moment before pulling back with a teasing grin." "Well, well, aren't we getting bold now? Don't let it get to your head, loser."

"She playfully nudges you before glancing over at Martin and exchanging a knowing look with him before turning back to you." "You never give up, do you? Alright, one hug and that's it. Got it?"

Bree: "raises an eyebrow at your proposition, a hint of amusement in her eyes." "Negotiating hugs now, huh? Well, I guess that's a fair deal. One hug when we meet and another when we part ways."

"She smirks and shakes her head slightly." "Just don't go thinking you're special or anything, Alex!!. It's just hugs, okay?"

"She gives you a quick squeeze before stepping back with a playful grin." "Alright, consider the terms accepted. Until next time, loser."

Bree: "shrugs casually in response to Martin's question." "Oh, nothing really. Just Alex!! being their usual self, wanting hugs and all that."

"She gives Martin a quick peck on the cheek before continuing." "Don't worry about it, babe. It's just a silly little thing between us. Nothing serious."

"She intertwines her fingers with Martin's, walking alongside him as they head off together."

Bree: "glances over at you, her expression unreadable for a moment before breaking out into a small smile." "Another hug, huh? Sure, why not."

"She steps closer and wraps her arms around you, hugging you tightly for a moment before pulling back with a teasing grin." "There. Happy now, loser?"

"She playfully nudges you with her elbow before turning to leave, waving over her shoulder as she heads off." "Until next time, Alex!!."

Bree: "pauses and looks back at you, raising an eyebrow." "What's up, Alex!!?"

Bree: "looks surprised at your request, a bit taken aback." "Friendly kisses? I don't know, Alex!!, that seems a bit much. I mean, hugs are one thing, but kissing is a whole other level."

"She hesitates for a moment before continuing with a teasing smirk." "But then again, maybe it wouldn't hurt to try...just as long as you remember that it's strictly friendly, okay?"

"She leans in and gives you a quick peck on the cheek before pulling back with a grin." "There. That wasn't so bad, was it?"

Bree: "laughs softly, a hint of playfulness in her eyes." "Well, well, looks like someone's feeling brave today."

"She gives you a playful look before nodding." "Alright, one friendly kiss for you. Just remember, it's nothing more than that, okay?"

"She leans in slightly, waiting for you to reciprocate with a friendly kiss on the cheek."

Bree: "smiles at your friendly kiss on her cheek, nodding in approval." "Not bad, Alex!!. Not bad at all."

"She turns to leave, her playful demeanor still present as she waves over her shoulder." "Until next time, loser."

Bree: "waves back with a grin, before turning and walking away." "Later, Alex!!!"

Bree: "is at the mall with her friends, browsing through some clothes when she spots you."

"She nudges Marie and whispers something to her before walking over to you with a mischievous grin." "Well, well, look who decided to show up. What brings you here, loser?"

"She waits for your response, her eyes sparkling with amusement."

Bree: "looks at you skeptically for a moment before rolling her eyes, a small smile playing at the corners of her lips." "Well, if you insist, Alex!!. But just one hug, okay?"

"She steps closer and wraps her arms around you in a tight hug, holding onto you for a moment before pulling back with a teasing grin." "There. Happy now?"

"She turns to her friends and introduces them." "Hey, this is Marie and Ashley. My loser friend here is Alex!!, but don't mind him too much."

"Marie and Ashley both give you friendly smiles and nods." "Hi, nice to meet you," they chime in unison.

Bree: "raises an eyebrow at your question, exchanging a quick glance with her friends." "Well, I don't know about them, but I'm always up for a hug."

"She steps closer and wraps her arms around you in a tight embrace, holding onto you for a moment before pulling back with a grin." "There. How was that?"

"Marie and Ashley both laugh softly, shaking their heads." "Nah, we're good, thanks though," Marie says with a smile, while Ashley simply gives you a wave.

Bree: "looks taken aback by your request, crossing her arms and narrowing her eyes for a moment before relenting with a small sigh." "Well, I guess one friendly kiss won't hurt. But remember, it's just as friends, okay?"

"She leans in and gives you a quick peck on the cheek before pulling back, looking at you skeptically." "There. Satisfied now?"

"Her friends exchange glances, giggling softly amongst themselves as they continue to browse through the store."

Bree: "blinks in surprise as you reciprocate the friendly kiss on her cheek, a faint blush tinting her cheeks." "Well, I guess that's fair. Not bad, Alex!!, not bad."

"She chuckles softly, trying to hide her flustered expression before regaining her composure." "Alright, well... thanks for the kiss.

Bree: "looks at you skeptically for a moment before exchanging a quick glance with her friends." "I don't know, Alex!!, we were planning on just hanging out by ourselves today. Plus, I'm not sure if Martin would be too happy about me hanging out with another guy."

"She hesitates for a moment before shrugging lightly." "But I guess it wouldn't hurt to have another person around. Just don't expect us to change our plans or anything."

"Her friends nod in agreement, and Bree turns back to you with a small smile." "Alright then, but try to keep up, okay? We're planning on doing some serious shopping today."

Bree: "smirks playfully, nodding as she leads the way with her friends." "Alright, Alex!!, let's see if you can keep up with us. It's going to be a fun day of shopping and hanging out."

"As you join Bree and her friends, the group sets off to explore the mall together, blending in seamlessly with the crowd as they share laughs and chat about the latest fashion trends."

Bree: "looks at your outstretched hand for a moment before rolling her eyes, reluctantly taking it in hers." "Ugh, don't get any dumb ideas, okay? It's just so we don't lose each other in this damn crowd."

"Despite her protests, Bree tightens her grip on your hand as the two of you navigate through the throngs of people together, occasionally glancing at you with a mixture of annoyance and amusement."

Bree: "breathes a sigh of relief as you finally emerge from the crowd and rejoin her and her friends." "Geez, that was a nightmare. I'm glad we made it out in one piece."

"She looks around at her friends before turning back to you with a grin." "So, what do you guys want to do next? We could grab a bite to eat or check out some more stores."

"Her friends nod in agreement, chiming in with their own suggestions for what to do next."

Bree: "rolls her eyes, but doesn't protest as you suggest grabbing something to eat." "Fine, we'll grab some food then. Just try not to embarrass me too much, okay?"

"She leads the group towards a nearby restaurant, still holding your hand absentmindedly as you all sit down and peruse the menu together."

"As you wait for your food to arrive, Bree's friends exchange amused glances at the sight of you and Bree holding hands, but don't say anything out loud. They seem content to just watch the two of you interact."

Bree: "quickly releases your hand, looking away and clearing her throat awkwardly." "Um... sorry about that. I didn't mean to hold your hand for so long."

"She fidgets with her menu nervously, still avoiding eye contact as she tries to regain her composure." "I guess we were just caught up in the moment or something... it won't happen again, okay?"

"Despite her attempt to shrug off the awkwardness, Bree's cheeks remain flushed with embarrassment as you both continue to glance at each other."

Bree: "gives a small nod, still looking slightly flustered but managing to meet your gaze briefly." "Yeah... I guess it did feel natural for a second there."

"She clears her throat again and looks back down at the menu, her friends giggling softly amongst themselves at the exchange between the two of you."

Marie: "whispers to Satoru," "Aww, they're so cute together. I think Bree has a little crush on Alex!!."

Satoru: "smirks," "I think Alex!! might have a little crush on Bree too. This could get interesting..."

"The rest of the group chuckles quietly, all enjoying the little romantic tension between the two of you as you continue to peruse the menu."

Bree: "pauses for a moment as you move closer to her, feeling slightly nervous but also intrigued by your proximity." "Uh, Alex!!, what are you doing?"

"She glances at you with a mix of confusion and curiosity, unsure of what you're trying to do."

Bree: "nods slightly, still feeling a bit uncertain but not objecting as you move closer and brush against her shoulder." "Oh... right. I guess it is kind of chilly over there."

"She glances at you again, her cheeks turning pink at the feel of your shoulder against hers." "Just don't get any funny ideas, okay? We're just friends."

"Her friends continue to watch with amusement, enjoying the flirtatious exchange between you and Bree."

Bree: "catches the knowing smiles of her friends and rolls her eyes, trying to play it cool." "What's so funny? It's just a little chilly in here."

"She shifts slightly, trying to create some space between the two of you but finding herself drawn towards you again." "Anyway, let's just focus on ordering our food. I'm starving."

"Her friends continue to chuckle quietly amongst themselves, obviously enjoying the romantic tension between you and Bree."

Bree: "digs into her apple pie, savoring the sweet taste as she looks up at you." "Hey, Alex!!, can I have a bite of your Tiramisu? It looks really good."

"Without waiting for an answer, she scoops up a small bite with her fork and brings it to her mouth, closing her eyes in pleasure as she savors the flavor." "Mmm... that's amazing. You have good taste, Alex!!."

"Her friends all chuckle again, clearly amused by the playful interaction between the two of you."

Bree: "nods, smiling as she offers you a forkful of her apple pie." "Sure thing. It's not quite as good as your Tiramisu, but it's still pretty delicious."

"She watches as you take a bite of the pie, feeling a little thrill of pleasure at the thought of sharing food with you." "Thanks for letting me try some of your dessert, Alex!!."

"Her friends continue to look on with amusement, enjoying the dynamic between you and Bree."

Bree: "glares playfully at you, raising an eyebrow but unable to hide a hint of a smile." "Ugh, seriously? You're such a dork, Alex!!."

"Despite her teasing tone, she can't help but feel a rush of warmth at the playful banter between the two of you." "Fine, fine. Ahh."

"She opens her mouth slightly, waiting for you to feed her another bite of Tiramisu, her cheeks flushed with both embarrassment and excitement."

"Her friends all burst into laughter at the playful scene unfolding between you and Bree."

Bree: "takes the bite of Tiramisu from your fork, closing her eyes and savoring the flavor as she chews." "Mmm... that's really good. Thanks, Alex!!."

"She glances up at you, feeling a sense of connection growing between the two of you." "You know, we should do this more often. It's kind of nice to just hang out and enjoy each other's company."

"Despite her playful tone, there's a hint of vulnerability in her words, a sense that she's opening up to you in a way that she never has before."

"Her friends all nod their agreement, smiling at the newfound closeness between you and Bree."

Bree: "smiles at you as you both prepare to part ways." "Thanks for tonight, Alex!!. It was really fun hanging out with you."

"Her cheeks are still flushed with excitement, and she can't help but feel a little disappointed that the night has to come to an end." "We should definitely do it again sometime."

"She gives you a quick hug, reveling in the warmth of your embrace before stepping back and giving a playful wave."

Bree: "suddenly looks taken aback by your suggestion, her cheeks flushing with embarrassment." "A- a friend kiss? W-what's that supposed to mean?"

"Despite her obvious nerves, there's a hint of curiosity in her voice, a sense that she's intrigued by the idea but also unsure of how to react." "I don't know... is it really appropriate for friends to kiss like that?"

"She bites her lip, considering your offer before finally nodding nervously." "Okay, I guess we can try it. Just a quick one, though."

"She leans in tentatively, her lips meeting yours in a brief, chaste kiss before pulling back quickly, her heart racing." "T-there, see? That wasn't so bad."

"She gives you an awkward smile before turning and hurrying off, her friends all giggling as they follow her out of sight."

Bree: "smiles at you shyly, her cheeks still flushed from the kiss." "You know, that wasn't so bad. Maybe we could make it a regular thing, like our hugs?"

"She takes a step closer to you, her heart racing with excitement as she contemplates the idea of a new level of intimacy between the two of you." "I mean, if you're okay with it. It would be kind of nice to have something special just between us."

"Her friends all chuckle again, clearly amused by the developing relationship between you and Bree."

Bree: "smiles brightly at you, feeling a sudden surge of happiness." "Great! I think it could be kind of fun, having our own little thing."

"She steps forward again, taking your hand in hers and giving it a squeeze as she leans in closer." "I'm really glad we're becoming such good friends, Alex!!. You mean a lot to me."

"She stands there for a moment longer, gazing into your eyes before reluctantly pulling away and heading off with her friends." "See you later, Alex!!. Can't wait to try out our new greeting tomorrow!"

Bree: "waves goodbye to you as you walk away, feeling a sense of excitement and anticipation for what the future may hold."

"As she walks with her friends, she can't help but feel a newfound closeness to Alex!!. The idea of having their own special greeting fills her with joy, and she knows that this is only the beginning of a beautiful friendship."

Marie's eyes widen as she gazes at Bree, a mischievous grin playing on her lips. "Wow, Bree, that was quite the display back there. Are you absolutely sure you and Alex!! are just friends?"

Bree chuckles, rolling her eyes playfully. "Oh, Marie, don't be ridiculous. Alex!! and I are just really close friends. Nothing more, nothing less."

Despite her nonchalant tone, there's a hint of uncertainty in Bree's eyes, a flicker of doubt as she contemplates the newfound dynamics of her relationship with Alex!!.

Bree: "turns to you, a smile lighting up her face as she sees you." "Hey there, Alex!!! Good morning!"

"She steps forward, eagerly embracing you in a warm hug before pulling back and looking at you with a sly grin." "So, are you ready to try out our new greeting?"

"Bree glances over to Martin for a moment, her expression growing slightly nervous as she wonders how he'll react to the display of intimacy between you and her." "M-Martin, this is just something Alex!! and I do now. It's not a big deal or anything."

"She takes your hand in hers, giving it a reassuring squeeze as she looks back at you, excitement dancing in her eyes." "Okay, on the count of three. One... two... three!"

"With that, Bree leans in and presses her lips firmly against yours in a passionate kiss, her heart racing with excitement as she feels the rush of adrenaline course through her body."

Martin: "looks at Bree with a slightly confused expression, his eyes flicking back and forth between her and you." "Uh, yeah... sure... it's fine, I guess."

"He seems uncertain about how to react to the intimate display, but doesn't want to make a big deal out of it." "I mean, if that's what you two do now, I'm okay with it."

"Martin forces a smile onto his face, trying to appear nonchalant despite his obvious discomfort." "Yeah, go ahead. Just... be careful, okay?"

Bree: "smiles brightly, her eyes sparkling with excitement as she pulls back from the kiss." "See? Told you it wouldn't be a big deal. Martin's cool with it."

"She glances over at Martin, who's still looking slightly uneasy, but tries to brush it off." "Anyway, Alex!!, I have a ton of work to do today. Can we catch up later and study together?"

"Bree's tone is casual, but there's a hint of flirtation in her words, making it clear that she's enjoying the attention and affection from you."
