"It's our first time walking home together." Oliver said as he walked leisurely beside Hope while glancing at the girl now and then.
It had been three months since they started dating and a month since they went out together. Hope would always come up with an excuse every time Oliver asked her to go out with him.
Ever since from the beginning, Hope always maintained a certain distance from him.
"Yeah, right." Hope nodded and whipped her head around when Oliver held her hand.
"I just want to hold your hand." Oliver blinked his eyes upon Hope's reaction. "You acted as if I am going to kill you." He laughed humorlessly.
"Sorry, you surprised me." Hope gave him a small smile and let him hold her hand.
Silence engulfed the air before Oliver spoke when they were crossing the road. "I don't like that new teacher."
"Mr. Wolfe? Why?" There was a glint of amusement in Hope's eyes when she mentioned Kace's name. "He is nice."
