"Lost in the Moment"

Part 5

As the credits rolled on "The Shape of Water", Kankri couldn't shake off the feeling that had been building up inside him. He couldn't stop thinking about how much he wanted Cronus, how much he wanted to be close to him, to touch him, to kiss him. He glanced over at Cronus, who was still engrossed in the movie's final scenes, a look of wonder on his face. Kankri's heart skipped a beat as he watched him, feeling his desire grow with every passing moment. Kankri tried to distract himself, to focus on the movie's ending, but his mind kept wandering back to Cronus. He couldn't help but think about how much he wanted to be with him, to explore the feelings that had been growing between them. He felt a sense of nervous excitement, mixed with a dash of fear, as he contemplated taking a chance. As Cronus finally turned off the movie player, Kankri saw his chance. He turned to Cronus, his heart racing with anticipation, and gently brushed a strand of hair out of Cronus' face. Cronus looked up at him, a question in his eyes, but Kankri didn't give him a chance to speak. He leaned in, his lips brushing against Cronus' in a soft, gentle kiss. At first, it was just a small, tentative kiss, but as soon as their lips touched, Kankri felt a spark of electricity run through his body. He deepened the kiss, his lips lingering on Cronus', and Cronus' eyes fluttered closed, his face tilting up to meet Kankri's. But as the moments ticked by, Kankri realized he was lingering far too long. He pulled back, his face flushing with embarrassment, and apologized, "I'm sorry, I...I didn't mean to..." Cronus' eyes opened, and a slow smile spread across his face. "You don't have to apologize, Kankri," he said, his voice low and husky. "I love kissing you." Kankri's heart skipped a beat as he heard Cronus' words. He felt a rush of excitement and happiness, and before he could think twice, he leaned in again, his lips meeting Cronus' in another kiss. This time, it was Cronus who deepened the kiss, his arms wrapping around Kankri, pulling him close. Kankri felt himself melting into the kiss, his body responding to Cronus' touch. He knew in that moment, he was exactly where he wanted to be. As they finally pulled back, gasping for air, Kankri smiled up at Cronus, feeling a sense of joy and contentment wash over him. He knew that this was just the beginning, that their feelings for each other were still unexplored, but in that moment, he didn't care. All he knew was that he wanted to be with Cronus, to kiss him, to touch him, to be close to him.
