Chapter Nineteen - We're Not Calling Her Petunia
As they walk to the mess hall, Clarke rubs it in that he missed some real food at breakfast. Eggs and ham and spinach. He tries to look angry, but the smile on her face sets his heart fluttering, and he has to spend the entire time trying not to grin like an idiot.A shot of energy bolts through his arm when she accidentally brushes against him.
Get a grip, Blake, the voice tells him. Before she realizes you’re a desperate fool.
Probably too late for that.
When she continues to bump into him, he starts to wonder if maybe it isn’t an accident. The flutter in his heart moves to his stomach. She grins up at him when she realizes he’s staring.
Like. A. Desperate. Fool.
