Already Looking


Her heart pounded.
Dare she cast a glance in his direction?
It would take courage and subtlety. It would take poise. It was a battle between fluttering heart, logical mind and a blushing face. It felt like a daring move for a shy girl such as herself. 
She turned her head slowly, pretending to look at the crowd between them. Pretending to be interested in others, when she was only interested in him.
What could go wrong?
She saw him avert his eyes suddenly as her glance fell on his slightly red face.
Her heart fluttered.
He was already looking.
