Arabella stared him down in the lunch room, stirring her coffee for much longer than she needed too. And whilst she did, he stared back at her from across the room - his arms crossed oblivious to any conversation from the wooden table he sat at.

The tension between them had broke out like a wildfire, every time the scene cut they escaped from lingering with one another.

"Don't you agree Cooper?" Ari says with her freshly curled blonde hair bouncing as she takes a bite from her food "Cooper, helloooo are you even in the room with us" He snaps out of his gaze.

"Yeah what's up?" the table all look at each other with awkward laughs "What's going on kiddo you're not being talkative at all" But inside all he wanted to do was shout out about how unbearable this invisible string to Bella was, but he was trapped with his thoughts.

"I'm just tired"

And that's when things began to get interesting, the chair beside him slowly pulls out and the smell of floral perfume lingers. Bella smirks at him, knowing how much it eats at him - half hoping he breaks out into an angry outburst, half hoping he regains their friendship. "How wonderful of you to join us Bella, we was just talking about how strange Coops is being" She snickers at Ari "I'm sure you'll be just fine, won't you Cooper" slowly patting his shoulder as he glares at her, clenching his sharp jaw.

He flashes false smile "Yeah you're right, I'm probably hungry anyways" He scoots closer to the table slowly working his hand onto Bellas thigh, maintaining eye contact the whole time. Bella's heart racing erratically, she liked this too much and she could not control her feelings whatsoever.

"You know what you're doing" She says through grunted teeth but he just smiles "this is only the beginning Bella"
