We sat in the bus seats, your music played in our ears through the shared earphones.

'Can I read your Palm?' I asked suddenly, your face painted with shock.
'Um, yeah sure.'

I smiled, taking your hand in my own, tracing the lines of your palm. 'You'll live a long life, it will get better as it goes,' I begin. You listen intently, your gaze made me nervous yet I continued on, this was the first conversation we've had in a while.

Yet when I'm finished I let your hand go and the warmth we created left us. There was a tension in the air, soft glances being thrown each way. But the next track played, and we let the music fill the empty space again.
