When he finally understood the reason, he wasn't surprised, he was a difficult guy, no matter how much you like someone you can only take it to a certain point.
He loved the feeling when she agreed to be his girlfriend. He had never had a girlfriend and when they first broke up it was harder on him than he thought.
His mum had used reversed physiology on them and she thought neither of them knew what she did but they were both too smart not to.
Thinking about that night, when she first kissed him all he could answer was 'fascinating', his mind was thinking of a million things at the same time and that was all he could say. He couldn't tell her he enjoyed it, all physical contact was never an option for him and there he was, sitting on her couch, with a girl next to him and next thing he remembers is her lips against his.
Now, that seems like ages ago. They had come a long way since that night, the kissing, the date nights, the sleepover, the Halloween party, etc.
He thought about the make out session in his couch, that made him smile, and then sad. He remembered what it felt like to have her right in front of him, kissing, her hand on his shoulder. For many, that is nothing, but to someone who fears all kinds of physical contact it was a huge deal.
What made him smile the most was the fact that he was touching her, his right hand was on her waist, it was not the first time they had done this but it wasn't a regular thing too, so when they did it, he was surprised how much he enjoyed it, and his left hand was on her leg, slowly going up and down, surprised at was next to him and how good he felt. His mind was thinking of too many things at the same time and when he asked about the flash show it was a serious question. He tried to kiss her again but she refused to, he didn't know why until they started speaking louder than normal, then, her face went from incredibly happy to close to tears and not the happy kind.
