Chapter 36: Her Hair
- Kathrine Andrews: (Song of the Chapter: Okay by Chase Atlantic)
Standing in my room, I smoothed out my shirt as I stared into the mirror. A small smile tugged at my lips as yesterday’s events replayed in my mind.
Giving Glyndon a ride to her house had been... interesting. She had clung to my waist so tightly, as though letting go would be the end of the world.
When we finally reached her house, I helped her hop off the bike, but she didn’t even spare me a glance or a word of thanks.
Instead, she bolted to her front door like she couldn’t get away fast enough, completely forgetting that her wallet and phone were still in my possession.
After letting out an amused sigh, I followed her, knocking on the door. Her maid had answered, and I handed over her belongings.
That was the practical thing to do, of course, but the memory of her panicked, flustered face and her lips on mine lingered.
She kissed me.
It wasn’t something I imagined—it happened.
Even now, I wasn’t entirely sure how to process it. Was it panic? Desire? Or something in between? Either way, the memory of it made me smirk.
Shaking off the thoughts, I grabbed my backpack and headed downstairs.
