Too shy to look at him, Rose just hid her face on his chest. She wraps her arms around his waist as she hears how loud his beating heart is. The same with her. Right now, her heart feels almost like it exploded. She was so excited to kiss him in his mother's backyard. The sensation is thrilling.
"Rose!" She hears Evan call her name. She is silently waiting for him to finish his words. "Whatever my mother said later… I hope you don't misjudge me." Evan's voice sounds deep.
Rose could feel fear in his tone. She could guess what he meant, he must be afraid she will have negative thoughts. Because of how he behaves toward his parents, mainly because he is worried his mother will badmouth him.
