He Could See My Comments, I Used Them To Tease Him Chapter 07

I swallowed hard and gave the transfer kid my 

number. 

The hallway went quiet. After the transfer kid left, 

Silas and I just stood there staring at each other. 

Just as I found the whole thing ridiculous and 

turned to leave, the ice king finally spoke. 

“He seems like he doesn’t really have boundaries. 

So you’ve given up on me, is that it?” 

What? 

One meeting and he’d already decided the other. 

guy had “no boundaries.” 

I turned and glared at him. “You’re insane.” 

His face went even paler. He opened his mouth 

like he wanted to say something else, but nothing 

came out. 

Halfway through gym class, a sharp ache twisted 

through my stomach. 

I did the math and groaned internally. 

I got permission from the teacher and headed to 

the bathroom. 

Coming back, feeling shaky, I sat down at my 

desk. 

My hand brushed against something in my drawer 

-and a strange warmth spread through my chest. 

A cup of milk and a box of painkillers. 

This wasn’t the first time I’d got something like 

this. 

Last time I had my period, I’d been in so much pain 

I used the comments to order Silas around into 

buying me medicine. 

I glanced over. His seat was empty. 

I felt a twinge of regret. 

Honestly, aside from being lousy with words and 

stringing me along, Silas wasn’t that bad. 

I rested my head on the desk, beads of sweat 

forming on my forehead. 

By the time I came to, classmates were trickling 

back into the room. 

I sat up, and something slid off my shoulder. 

I stared at the jacket on the floor–big, with that 

faint scent of laundry detergent. 

I pressed my lips together and looked up to see Silas just walking through the door, that same 

cool, unreadable expression on his face. 

Looking at him acting so aloof, whatever soft 

feeling I’d had a second ago vanished completely. 

I handed the jacket back to him but still managed 

a thank you. 

“Thanks.” 

“Feeling better?” 

His gaze landed on my stomach. 

My face went hot, and it hit me all at once–I’d told him my exact cycle dates in a comment once, and he’d actually remembered it.
