In the novel you don’t find out he kissed her until later. But he’s liked her like that since he first met her.
If I remember correctly, even with a full cake up make up she had, he fell in love at first. He just suppress it because he thought he will die soon.
He fell in love at first sight*
Wait I'm confused why did he kiss her? Since when does he like her like that.
Like ik he found her attractive but that's a big jump when did this happen
