บท 385: Unknown feelings

Edward wanted to protest. He honestly wished he could spend a little more time with her, but he thought better of it.

He could not afford to admit that to her, especially not after making it out like he was just here to while away time. 

"That's all right," he said calmly, rising to meet her. "Song Yu and I will drop you off at home, then. Come on," he said, starting to leave.

He paused when he realized she was still standing. "Is there a problem now, Red?" he asked, eyebrows raised.

"Well, thank you for the offer, sir, but I would really like to go alone. I'll be just fine." She hurriedly left, finding her way to the small service elevator, and merging with the crowd already milling out of the arena. The ride home was riddled with thoughts of Edward.

Thoughts of how many times she wanted to reach out and take his hand. She knew he felt it too. Because there was no other reason why he put down his bag of chips right next to hers.
