Section Four
Mush's POV
Oh, God… I'm trying really hard not to stare at Blink. And it's really not working. And I think it's making him nervous, because he just smiled at me in this really weird way. Like he's nervous. But I think I already said that. Oh no… what if he knows?? Is he mad at me now? I don't think I could stand that, so I finally look away from him, down at the scattered pages between us and pick them up, pulling them into what sort of resembles a pile. Blink is doing the same thing, only his pile looks more like a stack and less like a big lump. I can't really concentrate, though. He makes me really jumpy sometimes.
I don't think he had meant to knock into me (Well, I could hope, but… I don't think Blink felt like that. And it wasn't good to get my hopes up that he did.). Anyway, I wasn't mad at him for it, especially not when he's this close.
But he isn't talking to me. Why isn't he talking?
