Chapter 70: Chapter 63: Awkwardness After Waking Up_2

Aria Grant glanced at George Flack, and George Flack was looking back at her. Their eyes met, and neither of them could read the other's mind. Aria recalled George's abrupt question from the day before and was about to ask when George began to clear the forks and plates.
