The truth was that he was not a person to give his heart away easily.

You two had a kind of situationship, he always seemed tired, with cold eyes and full of disinterest, but you could see behind those eyes. You could see his heavy shoulders on the way home. You both took the same subway to go home, and one of those days you asked him out. He declined, not rudely or anything, he just declined.

You were a bold woman, and his lack of interest certainly only sparked your own interest in him. He could deny that he didn't want you, but you saw the way he acted around other women. He expected you to confess first, but wasn't it obvious even without words? You had been wanting to be his, just waiting to be his. He captivated your heart like no other, and you knew there was no reason to deceive his heart.
