"Then..." I hesitated, "...what are we now?"
I'm regretting asking her this question now.
My heart was pounding like crazy.
For a few seconds, she didn't say a word.
And then… she giggled.
"Pfttt… heeheee…hehe.."
I peeked at her.
She had her chin resting on her palm, elbow on the table, and a playful tilt to her head. Her eyes… those crimson eyes were curved into crescents. Her cheeks were flushed a deep pink, and her smile…
God.
That smile could kill anyone.
…the way she looked at me, like I was the only one in the world who mattered to her.
Then she peeked up at me through her lashes.
"M-Maybe..." she whispered, her eyes were darting around before they shyly returned to mine, "...something more than best friends?"
My heart skipped a beat.
We both were aware of our feelings, and right now I don't want to hide anything from her.
Her fingers reached across the table again, hesitating for a second before I placed my own on her, brushing them lightly.
