i wait for him to pull away but he doesnt , he slowly starts to lean forward and i know that this is the moment , he is about to kiss me , and i am about to let him when sasha jumps up past me and runs to the door that levi just opened and is coming in through , i look at the floor and back to ephraim , only to see him staring at his brandy as though it has betrayed him and he sets it on the end table closest to him and pushes it away .
