I know ya have a thing for me.
And no, that's not a confession of love, Rus uttered a little reluctantly and paused, his brows drawing together with a mix of emotions.
Don't think I don't know.. He said, sighing softly.. no joke, no teasing smirk like usual.
Ya have the only heart I feel bad for breaking, sweetheart, but if your parents found out...
