[attr="class","nologicpost1"]Pale hands were knocked away by Noel and gray eyes merely blinked. Ah..."sorry..." he apologized. He should have asked if it was alright to touch her before checking her temperature. A reason why he needed to truly think through his words and actions. That was probably normal for most people, something they would most likely not have to think about.[break][break]

There was a huff from Noel before she starting talking about gems? Julius squinted his eyes at her trying to figure out why she was talking about gems. When the girl took a step forward, he had stood still allowing their bodies to be pressed against each other. He had touched her without asking earlier, the last he could do was offer her the same. Her eyes seemed to be flickering between two points on his face as she spoke about how gems are misunderstood. And then a gentle kiss on the lips. There was no force on it if anything it almost felt like a light brush. A kiss that was so brief that one could debate if it had even occurred of it was merely a figment of Julius's imagination. However, he doubted for that to be the case if only because he did not see Noel in such a way. Noel pulled back and asked him to never shatter before stating how she would love to meet him again.[break][break]

The door opened by two people and Noel took that as her exit. Julius merely stared blankly before giving the two newcomers a nod and leaving as well. The party was dying down and Julius supposed it was time for him to leave as well. Pale hands reached up to his lips. This was certainly not his first kiss but it certainly was a strange one.[break][break]

Why would Noel do such a thing? Was it a playful kiss or did it mean something more? The prosecutor shook his head, he was most likely reading too much into it. The kiss was most likely a sign of something else. With that thought in mind, Julius stepped out into the cold and headed to the subway in order to go back to his apartment.
