Nico should have chewed me out for gawking, but a quick glance told me he was as captured as I was. Both his and Rush's hooded eyes were pinned on her. I patted Nico on the back. Poor guy was never going to get anywhere near her. The gap between him and Rae was too wide, and only getting wider with every day that he didn’t tell her the truth. I, on the other hand, was determined to make it work. That is, if she didn’t kill me first.
