Sheloah's eyes were wide open in shock as Veon's lips still hadn't left hers. When Sheloah held a fist of Veon's clothes, her hands getting tighter by the second, that's when Veon stopped.
"Isn't this enough answer for you?"
Sheloah went quiet. Her heart was beating fast as Veon looked at her straight in the eyes. She felt her face heat up and she knew she was already blushing. Veon sighed as he rested his face on Sheloah's shoulder, feeling embarrassed.
"It matters to me… because I've already fallen for you."
Veon said this in a whisper and it made Sheloah's heart beat double its pace.
"You mean…"
Sheloah didn't know what to say. Veon embraced her then spoke about his feelings clearer than ever.
"That dream was a wake up call for me. When you were bitten… when you were turning into a zombie… it just broke my heart," he said then he hugged Sheloah tighter than earlier as he remembered the fear he felt whenever he remembered his nightmare.
