She closed her eyes and opened them. Her lips pursed as if to contradict to what he said but decided against it. She simply shook her head and proceeded to stand.
Nicholas grabbed her wrists and asked. "What do you want to hear?"
She shook her head again. "I didnt mean it like that? I meant...what excatly is our relationship right now? You are always flirting with me."
"Flirting…?" he tested the words and rubbed his nose with the other hand. It did not fit. "Little girl we are testing waters."
"Hun…?" She replayed his words and smiled. "Oh...you are not sure how you feel about me?"
