"True." I chuckle twirling a lock of my hair.

He watches her, his eyes locked on her fingers.

I flash a smile, looking at him. "What?"

He snaps out of it and shakes his head, swallowing. "Nothing."

I study him. "It was something." I say with a raised eyebrow.

He looks down and lies, "I spaced out, s'all."

I look at him. "I know a lie when I see one."

He flashes a smile. "Don't worry about it, Rayah."

I sigh and look away. "'Kay." I lean back in my chair and look away again.

He studies her before sighing as well.

I start twirling my hair again and look up at the clock.

His eyes are drawn once again to the movement of her hand before he snaps out of it and forces himself to look down, wondering what the hell was happening to him.

I glance at him, letting my hair down from the ponytail and straighten my eyes to look away."

Was she trying to get his attention? He closes his eyes and tries to clear his mind.

I stand and walk over to the bookshelf, looking for a certain book.
