15- A Deep Thirst
"What the fuck?" She practically blasted in front of the whole classroom.
But one look from the angry professor was enough to put her back in her seat.
She immediately removed her gaze from him. Her fingers were shivering, in anticipation and an unknown, weird feeling of nervousness. It was not fear from him. It was her scary attraction towards him.
She could not understand why she wanted to look at him, and wished that he was looking at her too. But then also she did not want him to catch her looking at him, just to save herself from the embarrassment.
She was utterly distracted and him sitting right beside her was definitely the main reason of that distraction.

"And what did you say?" Varys asked gently."I.. um. Accepted it?" Hope flinched a little after saying the words.

He asked in a soft voice that betrayed the hidden anger behind his words.Hope stared into his eyes with barely contained emotions. She honestly did not know the answer to that. It felt like they were friends, but the closeness behind that friendship screamed more than friends.
