You look over to where Nat leans on the wooden wall, feeling her stare at you so intently it makes you blush uncomfortably. You've never been good with eye contact so when you catch her gaze for a split second and then droop your head down, she wiggles her fingers at you as if to say, "I know you're looking. Hi."

You smile bashfully, covering your ears with your hands as you happy stim. You always find it so embarrassing how she can make you act like this so easily; she can do the simplest things and you're still freaking out over how cute she is. You hear her walk towards you and grip your pencil tighter, finding it hard to keep your emotions in check as she bends down next to you and whispers in your ear: "Come to the back room with me?"

Once you're settled in bed with her, you lean against the wall and observe her while she plays with your hand. There's a comfortable silence in the air as you run your eyes over her features, taking in every detail you can, like the way her lips rest in a natural pout or the curvature of her nose as she turns away from you and blushes, her bunny teeth on full display as she grins. "You stare an awful lot for someone who doesn't like eye contact," she jokes, bringing your fingers up to her mouth to kiss.
