Summary
Staring into the distance in a limbo-state as they joked about the whole dating debacle, Sherry grasped your hand in hers, holding it tight. She looked up at you with the sweetest grin, and bluest eyes, she almost looked like their child, “What about you? Are you in love?”
“I-I don’t know, I don’t think I’d know if I was either …” You finally spoke out, but in truth, a small part of you knew that love was perhaps a growing feeling you had for a person right in your sights. The person who had first found you in that service station frightened and alone. The person who had stuck by your side even though you were practically just a bad smell following them the whole night.
You could feel their gaze heavy on you, drowning you in sunlight as you stared at the hot road. It hurt too much, you had to see their eyes otherwise you’d lose your mind with anticipation.
