Like an automation her gaze again slides down, this time resting on her intertwind hands and she blurted out "I like you"
She couldn't see but his eyes went wide in surprise and his polite smile stretched wide into a surprised one as he continued to stare at her face, hoping she would look up.
Getting no response from him, she looked up only to be left surprise to see him smiling at her in surprise.
Her heart gave another wild pound and she felt her face heating up in blush as her gaze again rolled down and she continued "I... I mean, I had a crush on you, I mean I still do. I...this is a very long story, since when and how, I might tell you if you would want to know but... I..."
Struggling to find the proper words to speak with her brain not functioning she gulped and looked up at him again.
He now had an amused expression on his face, his lips were twitched upwards indicating a smile, making her feel more flustered and loose the confidence to be able to hold his gaze.
He was now impatient to listen what all was left for her to say.
He was not only amused by what she spoke but also found her flustered state adorable.
He was resisting himself from letting out a chuckle.
Her lashes again flared down and by now he understood that another set was on it's way.
She didn't look up while she spoke.
"Not that I am saying that I am the only one who likes you, you guys are quite popular in the university and may be out of university as well if you guys perform else where but... and I don't know if you are dating anybody or not or if you have a girlfriend or you might like somebody else. If any of the case is true then it's fine, I get it but... If it's not and if you don't mind, if you would want to then..."
She paused making him raise one of his eyebrows in curiosity.
He was quite enjoying her nervous rambles and didn't like the pause in it but then she looked up and met his eyes, making him feel nervous this time.
"Oh, darling. You can't fix yourself by breaking someone else."
