A Case Of Missed Timing

School commenced as per usual after my chat with Orion. I didn't even realise that we had been conversing for that long.

There had hardly been any time to interact with Cain after I entered the classroom, but we did make countless eye contact with one another albeit how brief they were. Orion had also been a little less playful after the conversation we had earlier, although he occasionally touched me albeit innocently.

Even during the brief break we get as the teachers swapped classes, he kept his word and dealt with anyone who was about to comment on his confession. Although he acted as mischievously as ever, nobody said anything after and respected his wishes to keep my response a secret.

A little tacky, but whatever works right?

It was pretty subtle but I couldn't help but notice how Orion had been acting a little differently after our talk. When our eyes briefly met, he would smile warmly and gently touch my hand.
