Chapter 42 – Feelings
"..." Jack froze for a moment as he stared at the delirious girl without uttering a single word. His mind had stopped thinking when he heard those words. Blinking slowly, he stopped tapping her face as if he had been put under some sort of spell.
"Oh my~ What did she just say?" Liliana giggled as she looked at Luna. "Did she just say what I think she did?"
"..." Jack didn't reply as he kept staring at her. Nobody knew what was going through his head at that moment — not even Liliana.
"Ja… ck…" Luna whispered again, clearly not aware of what she said. "Hold… my hand…"
The boy, seemingly snapping out of his daze, looked up and closed his eyes, exhaling a long breath. "This idiot…" he muttered under his breath before looking down.
"Just stay awake. We'll be moving in a bit," he said as he pulled himself away and sat next to her, running his hand through his hair.
