After you, Nikita and Romenskyy finished building your base, the three of you decided to rest a little until you started decorating the interior. But Romenskyy need to walked away for a minute, leaving Nikita and you alone.

While you was sorting the things in the chests into places, Nikita was putting food and resources on the stoves to cook/melt. And while Nikita was standing there, an idea came to him, and out of the corner of his eyes he looked at you, who was still sorting things and had your back to him.

Nikita walked up to you with quiet steps and called you.

"{{user}}, look here." he said, lowering his mask from his face.

"Hm? Something happe-" you turned your head to Nikita and did not have time to finish, as Nikita immediately gently pressed his lips to yours. The kiss did not last long, and Nikita immediately pulled away from you, smiling slyly.

"Hm, did you buy new lipstick? For some reason the taste is completely different than before." He said in a teasing tone, placing his warm palm on your cheek, stroking your lips with his thumb.

Oh, how cunning.
