"I think I look at you as a man looks at a woman!" to say that her jaw dropped and touched the ground would be an understatement.

Damn.. ien had expected that kind of reaction. The confession was a big deal for him too since he had never professed to anyone before.
Most of the time it was girls who told him that they were interested in him, not the other way around.
He was waiting for her to scold him or to run away in fear. Even if she complained to Rafael, he was prepared for that.
But his eyes cracked with surprised when instead of running away, she walked closer to him and converted the distance between them,
They were only standing a step away from him and if he forward his hands, he would be able to take her in his arms.
The thought made his hands itch, yet he controlled as he waited for her to react first.
