"Oh my, do you love me?" He asked, anticipating a yes. 

"No, not yet." And the moment those words left her mouth, a tinge of regret settled in. To which he was simply disappointed. 

"Do you want to?" He asked with an another glint in his eyes which could set her whole world on fire. She was given another chance to redeem herself but she choose to hush her desires instead.

 The dead silence was an adorable nightmare, both of them teetering on the edge of uncertainty. And he felt the imminent possibility of her fleeing at any moment, a fear that he couldn't shake.

"I wouldn't. What about you? Do you love me?" she inquired, feigning indifference to the butterflies wreaking havoc in her stomach.

"Not yet, but I want to."

Pretty little liars. 

Selah, once a skeptic of online romance, finds herself tangled in its web. Reality and illusion become drinking buddies in this chaotic bar of digital connections.
