His Past

(From Ella's Perspective)

For a moment, I thought that he could read my mind. I did not know what to say as I was too embarrassed. But even if it was awkward and embarrassing, it was not my fault. It was natural to feel that way when I was not sure what kind of relationship we had. We kissed, did a bit other things too, but we were not in a relationship. He wanted to be in a relationship with me, but it was me who was taking too long to decide. Only if he opened up to me...

"I'm ready," he said suddenly. "I want to start."

I nodded but did not dare meet his eyes. But perhaps I should, I should let him know that he can talk to me, I was going to be there for him no matter what and he could tell me about anything.
