New Feelings

Max pulled her closer, grabbing her right wrist so suddenly and as soon as their eyes met, Athasia also saw those blue irises trying to convey something to her.

"Did you cry?" Max asked under his raspy low tone voice. 

Athasia felt the tears starting to fall and she knew that they would start to fall down in moments. She shook her head but it was too late. Max saw her tears and he grabbed one of them between his index finger and thumb, gently wiping it away and then letting it go again. 

Her heart skipped a beat when his other hand reached out to brush against her cheek. Her cheeks felt cold and her whole body was freezing all over. 

She unconsciously slapped the guy's hand. "Don't touch me," she got stunned by her sudden reaction and she lowered her head. "I'm sorry," she mumbled.
