Lily was shocked, to say the least.
Well, she was shocked before when Zero suddenly kissed her but now, this news out of the blue?
No wonder he was acting so differently.
Was he feeling conflicted so badly that it affected him emotionally?
"This … this … this is big," Lily managed to gasp out, her eyes darting left and right and she began thinking hard.
Zero watched in silence - and amusement - at the many different expressions that his girlfriend-slash-lover was showing right now. She never failed to amaze him with the myriad of emotions that she often displayed to him.
A pang in his heart started then, as he began thinking of the possibility of leaving her and it made him slightly anxious. He could not lose her, and he did not want to lose her; and hence, he felt like he wanted to have her melt into him.
She had become such an integral part of him that he was reluctant to let her go.
