Lucien
"I.. I think I love you."
My heart stops beating for a moment, the shock of what I just heard dawning on me. My brain explodes, screeching in all the wrong ways.
Lucas is all pumped, screaming with excitement.
But I just stand there, feeling shocked, and speechless.
Love?
Does she know what love is? Love isn't something you should just spew out of your mouth, because you think you're feeling a funny, fluttery feeling in your chest.
Love is way more than that. Heck, I know that the few months we have spent together won't create love between us, not even an infatuation.
"Love? You love me?" I repeat, hoping maybe I didn't hear her clearly the first time.
She blinks her eyes, staring deep into my soul looking like I had just wronged her by asking her that question.
All of a sudden, she bursts out laughing, "Oh come on! You're always so serious, I just wanted to shake you up a bit," she giggles behind her hands, before swirling around again.
