Claire POV
Oh.
My.
God.
Quil was right there.
I was in front of him.
In nothing but an extremely small towel that exposed more of me then I preferred!
This was embarrassing beyond embarrassing.
Quil's face was bright red, and he was stuttering.
"I...uh...um...gotta...do that thing, in...uh...that place. Yeah. I'll be back...uh...when...um...yeah." he slowly backed out of my room, and I walked into it and shut the door. I was SUCH an idiot!
Quil POV
Crap.
Fudge.
Shoot.
Claire stood in front of me, trembling, her skin a shade of crimson that would put tomatoes to shame. Her towel barely reached her mid-thighs, exposing a lot of her skin. Her chestnut hair fell in wet strands around her face, which was adorable even in her obvious embarrassment.
Talking about embarrassment...
I was sure I, myself, had invented a new shade of red with my blood rushing to my flushed face. She probably thought I was a busybody, nosing through her private possessions like they were my own!
I realized that I was just standing there, so I made an excuse to leave.
"I...uh...um...gotta...do that thing, in...uh...that place. Yeah. I'll be back...uh...when...um...yeah." I stuttered.
I backed out of her room, and rushed out of the house. Running into the forest, I phased.
In my wolf form, I ran through the forest, and stopped after a few minutes to think about what had just happened.
And I had to admit to myself,
Seeing her like that was a massive turn-on!
Claire POV
He had already probably realized that I was in love with him.
WHY had I been SUCH an idiot? WHY?
Regardless of my emotions, I knew that I couldn't handle being just friends anymore. I was going to have to tell Quil.
