I'm not dating Balthazar. I'm pretend dating him. Which involves some not pretend hand-holding. And maybe some not pretend kissing. But it's all actually pretend, see? I groaned. My explanations were making my head hurt already.
Claudia GrayItโs funnyโwhen people call you โshy,โ they usually smile. Like itโs cute, some funny little habit youโll grow out of when youโre older, like the gaps in your grin when your baby teeth fall out. If they knew how it feltโreally being shy, not just unsure at firstโthey wouldnโt smile. Not if they knew how the feeling knots up your stomach or makes your palms sweat or robs you of the ability to say anything that makes sense. Itโs not cute at all.
