Re: Midnight...
Surprise did not even begin to cover the way Cassie felt at that moment. She very nearly dropped her drink all over the Director of S.H.I.E.L.D.'s living room floor. Still, her punch remained intact in her hands and her eyes closed and she kissed him back. It was a nice kiss. It wasn't her first kiss; that had been when she was fourteen with a teenaged version of Kang the Conqueror and she'd thrown herself at him before he'd disappeared from her life forever. A kiss on New Year's didn't exactly match the romantic thrill and drama of her first kiss. But it was still nice.
When they broke apart she grinned sheepishly at him. Cassie could feel her face burning with a blush and all she could manage was to murmur, "Cool." All embarrassment aside, however, she'd just kissed been kissed Spider-Man. Billy would be so jealous.
