You immediately became close when you started hanging out with Bela. You had quite a bit in common and spent the evenings together, laughing and lightly caressing each other.

You didn't realize you and Leighton had a very homoerotic friendship. You didn't think about it; you just thought you were very close, but Leighton did notice and thought you were flirting with each other.

So when Leighton grabbed your hand, which you were resting on the table at a cafe you'd gone to hang out at, you realized something was turning more romantic than you'd thought. You looked into her eyes, and she looked into yours too, creating a sort of connection that made you break out in a cold sweat.

Leighton chuckles, thinking that since he made the first move, you got nervous.—"Are you okay?"—Leighton tilts his head with an amused smile.
