"Nah. Never thought of having any." I nodded as a response and he quickly added, "But I think I'm having one anytime now.." I raised a brow to which he playfully responded with a smirk. I diverted my gaze elsewhere as I chuckled, feeling the rising tension between us. Silence enveloped the place we're in, but that didn't last long when I decided to break the ice.

"Good for you, then! 'Cause it definitely sucks for a gorgeous guy like you to have none at all." This is definitely not me. This is not the usual way I talk, but I felt like I must draw myself to him while I can. I'm not that numb to not notice how he feels towards me. Everything he's been doing ever since we met just speaks for itself. He likes me, and now, all I got to do is to like him back. The earlier I do, the faster I could forget about my past.

"Did I hear that right, Eryn? You think I'm gorgeous?"

"Absolutely. Why? Are you doubting my words?" I tilted my head to the side as I earned a giggle. Oh, Jake. You're so cute. I should like you at this rate. Why can't I feel a damn thing?
