"Give me some time to think about it," Rowan said softly, and when she lowered her head, I saw a glimmer of joy in her eyes.
"Can I walk you home now?" I reached for her backpack.
"No need, I'll walk with Saskia," Rowan said, her soft hand gripping the thin backpack strap tightly.
"Alright, then let's walk together," I said boldly, standing by her side. I smelled Rowan's faint fragrance and felt like I was falling in love again.
Throughout the walk, Rowan didn't speak to me but chatted with Saskia the whole way.
However, I could always catch Rowan's eyes sneaking glances at me.
I knew she was interested.
I slowed down, trailing behind them, taking in the graceful figures of Rowan and Saskia.
Honestly, Saskia had a bit more going for her than Rowan.
Rowan wasn't very tall, just about 5'2", while Saskia stood at a slender 5'6" with fair, delicate skin.
