[Zane's POV]
"You. It's always been you."
"..."
"..."
Hm?
…Wait.
I blinked.
Did i really just said that?!
'W-wow. How bold of you.' Sera was surprised too.
I hesitated.
My hands on her shoulders trembled sightly—No…it wasn't my hand, it was her body which was shaking.
My eyes slowly moved to her face. And what greeted me was her face with a shade of red so intense, that it could even rival her hair color.
Her mouth opened slightly, her lips trembling, like she wanted to say something but couldn't find the words.
Oh no!
I said something really embarrassing!
The realization hit me like a truck.
Why did I have to say it like that?! Couldn't I have just say something like, "You are important to me," or something less dramatic?
My gaze were fixed on her.
She was still staring at me.
No, wait—she wasn't just staring. She was frozen.
Like someone had pressed pause on her body.
And I…
M-my heart was pounding against my ribcage.
