Just Away from the Bonfire: Ellie & Rider & Kaden
The added detention didn't just get a shocked look from Ellie, but her eyes betrayed her and filled of their own accord. She thought Mr. Kaden liked her! Bloody hell! But no way would she risk more so after a look of absolute betrayal she whipped right back around to head for the school.
She was aware of Rider being there, and suddenly wished he wasn't. Her cheeks were burning with embarrassment, her nose begged her to sniffle and she had to swipe angrily at her eyes to keep them from spilling over.
"'M, fine." She had wanted it to be a grumble, but her voice hitched. Damn it.
