I didn't need a mirror to tell I'm blushing hard at that moment. His face was too close! OMG! I could die happily now.

"Ahm… I think," I tried to avert my eyes as I answered him. Inching a bit farther away from his face, I continued, "You just woke up?"

But Kaiden moved closer again.

"Why are you moving away?"

"Ahm… t-too close," I replied and smiled awkwardly.

Then I took a step back again but he just leaned closer.

"I-is there something in my face?"

"Nothing much. I just realized your eyes were pretty."

Badump! Badump! Badump!
