Bryce had been observing Jenna since they were reunited. She was like a more intense version of the woman he had loved but that wasn't a bad thing. If anything, it made her seem even livelier than before. That had been what made him fall for her in the first place.
Aside from that she was more independent, more prone to teasing others, and more reserved around him than he was used to. The past week she had acted more like she did around him than before though.
It was like she was finally giving him a chance but he couldn't allow himself to get his hopes up too much. She said she was willing to try being friends, which was a far cry from being lovers. She was his girlfriend in name only, even more than she had been the first time this happened.
