Bat of an Eye, Brush of a Hand

Nero and Talia have known each other for a while - growing from not being able to look at one another without a glare or eye roll following suit, to laughing at each others jokes and sharing their personal accounts on life. Everyone knew something deeper was just begging to ensue, but there was no way of pressuring either young adult into making a move - so, they're stuck dealing with the shy blushes and nervous stammering until someone breaks the ice.

Everyone goes through that awkward phase of 'close friends with thoughts of being something more' when the idea of pursuing a relationship is entertained, and this series documents exactly that.
