Alice POV
My throat felt dry as I tried to even out my breathing that has become shallow ever since he started speaking. That is a record. He doesn't speak too much but it seems that whatever brought him here made him talk too much and it was so overwhelming.
There were too many words that were stirring my emotions in a way that I have never felt before to the point that I felt my head spinning so I put my hands on the table for support.
I closed my eyes which had been widened for a couple of minutes and fidget with the temple of my glasses then I took a deep breath.
He didn't say it directly but I have read far too many romance books to understand what his words meant.
He likes me.
He came because he missed me and he was worried about me.
