From the way he stands, talks and gestures around with a certain emotion in his eyes, I can tell he's suffering which brings the heavy question that's been on my mind since.
"Are you okay?" My voice sounds soft and careful.
His mouth shuts once he hears me. His eyes widen for a second and that's the first time I see Jake with a genuinely shocked face.
Honestly, I've been worried about him since. Even when Madison told me about his health issues, I worried more but I tried to act like I didn't care when I really did.
A small smile slowly takes up his facial features, "For a moment, I wondered why I had feelings for you but now I know why."
The air thickens around us immediately those words come out of his mouth. I gasp, my lips parting open as I stare lost into his green eyes. That's like a mini-confession, if not an overall confirmation that he does like me and that gives me butterflies in my stomach, also I don't like it.
