Nicole swallowed as the air between them changed, she noticed the change so fast but she couldn't seem to pull out of whatever date she was in, the hand in her hair got even bolder stroking her hair and he was leaning closer too, she wanted to pull off and at the same time remain where she was, this was it, this was her finally moving on, this was her finally accepting that she might belong to someone else, someone, not Rafael and Aron was more in her class and they were more compatible, it was better to give someone like him a chance, it was clear from the beginning that Aron wants to be more than friends with her, but she was ready for that."So what else is there to do?"She asked breaking the moment and moving away from Aron, she avoided his gaze."Nothing more, we wait for everything to dry and pack them up,"Aron replied walking closer to her again, she moved further away from him."Stop running away Nicole,"Aron said pulling her to a stop in front of him, she kept her head dow
