𝐇𝐄 𝐈𝐒 𝐖𝐀𝐑𝐌 . 𝐋𝐘𝐃𝐈𝐀 𝐈𝐒 𝐂𝐋𝐎𝐒𝐄 𝐄𝐍𝐎𝐔𝐆𝐇 that she can feel it , can smell his shampoo and his soap and maybe some kind of cologne , something so very boyish and warm and nice . she is close enough to see the ( dark ) of his pupils , the clench of his jaw when he swallows . lydia has a palm against it , fingers an absent stroke over the hollow of his cheek , downdowndown toward the underside of his chin . lydia watches his mouth , sees him speak before it actually registers . » are we going to kiss now « , he asks , and just like that , something shatters . oh , oh . why would they ? why would they ?
❛ no . ❜ it is an exhale against his mouth . lydia can almost feel him on her lips . but then she is pressing away , off her toes , feeling a little too light - headed . a little bit moved . ( get it TOGETHER , martin ) . lydia steps back until they are no longer sharing space . offers a tight smile , but it doesn’t touch her eyes . ❛ no one’s watching . ❜ because wasn’t that all this was ? lashes touch her cheeks when she blinks her gaze away . don’t let it bother you , lydia . ❛ i’m hopping in the shower . please don’t go anywhere , my aunt may is looking for you and it’ll be a MESS if i’m not around . ❜
