Chapter Three: Realization

Nikita's P.O.V.

Throughout the night not much has happened. We didn't get any form of clue maybe we were still in shock from the kiss. I had to do it but I must admit it felt good. I'm a girl and Owen's...not that bad looking. You can't really blame me but I can. It was uncalled for. I shouldn't have done that in the first place. Owen already has a place in my heart as a great friend and I had the heart enough to forgive him...or at least...I think I have. If this continues...I can't bear it. I've lost Daniel and Michael already. I can't get attached.

I just realized what really did happen to Owen. He belonged to a wealthy family but he made a few mistakes which was way to many for his dad, got kicked out and got into drugs and crime. His mom miraculously managed to leave him this house before they died. Owen was officially dead a few months after his parent's death. Saved by Division from lethal injection, same as me. That's why he decided to stay here despite the risk. I could've asked him for us to relocate but this place does mean a lot to him.

The moment we reached his house, I tried to stay as far away from him as I can. After we changed, I went to the living room as he went to the kitchen. "Hey, you hungry, I'll make you a yum Vegan Pho with Seitan." Since we lived together again, he's been making me food ever since. I know he's trying to break the tension but I need to keep my distance...unfortunately I know it wouldn't end well with him approaching me. "Hey, are you okay?" I just nodded not even bothering to look at him. "Look, I know what you're trying to do Nikita. That was uncalled for, and it won't change anything. It was a must. But I'm sure that's not the only reason why you're bothered." he reached out his hand and touched my face turning my head to face him. I stiffened at his touch. "You won't lose me." I can't believe he figured me out but I do feel relieved. "How 'bout that pho?" I asked just to break the tension but I really was hungry. "Coming right up"

Owen's P.O.V.

I know what I said... 'It won't change anything...' But deep down I knew that that kiss changed something in me and I'm just hoping that someday what I feel for her...wil be returned. She fears to go near me because something is building...something I wish is what I want.

"I got my knuckles bruised by a lady in black And I held my tongue as she told me "Son fear is the heart of love" So I never went back"
