Hazel pulled out her phone as she walked out of the lecture hall and saw that there were a few missed calls and texts. Her heart skipped a beat when she saw that Alex had called her earlier. After thinking about it for a bit, Hazel decided to return his call.
In less than five seconds, Alex had picked up the phone and spoke on the other line. "Hazel?"
Hazel felt a tremor upon hearing his voice.
Ever since she had decided to give Alex a chance and considered changing their relationship from friends to lovers, Hazel realized that there would be times when she would feel like this—a little excited and a little anxious when she was around Alex.
It was a strange feeling, but Hazel found that it was not something that she disliked.
