The warmth of the girl's breath, tinged with a soft, sweet scent, made Connor's Adam's apple bob. He lifted his eyes to meet the girl's playful gaze.
Neither of them spoke, as if waiting for the other to break the silence.
Connor, feeling the tension, finally gave a slight nod.
Flora's smile grew wider, teasing him, "So, what does that mean? Yes or no?" "Yes." The word cout tight and a bit awkward.
Flora laughed, picking up her phone and positioning the camera to capture both of them. Just as she pressed the shutter, she planted a quick kiss on Connor's cheek.

Finally, she placed her phone face down on the table, grinning at Connor, "It's up. Go give it a like." Connor silently picked up his phone and clicked on Flora's profile.
-The best things in life should be savored, and the ones we love kept close to our hearts.
Under the caption was a grid of nine photos, their selfie in the center surrounded by a plain white background.
He saved the picture first, then shared it.
Comments started rolling in.
Raul: " ......
Henrik: ".
Ray: "Are you guys out of your minds?" Aisha: "So happy for you two!" Connor couldn't help but smile at the comments.
Flora rested her chin on her hands, watching him. She wasn't usually into posting on social media, but if Connor liked it, she didn't mind. Maybe she could post more often to keep Mr. Connor smiling.
Flora's heroic performance at the National Collegiate Competition had made her a legend in the Computer Science department at the University of Maple Grove. Actually, she was a legend in colleges nationwide.
Mr. Trevor couldn't stop grinning. Flora's success was a huge win for their Medical Department.
He was so obviously pleased that the Computer Science faculty wanted to throttle him.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAs soon as Flora returned to campus, Mr. Trevor called her into his office.
First, Mr. Trevor showered her with praise. Then, in a more serious tone, he said, "But now that the competition is over, you need to focus all your attention on your Medical studies, understand?" The other Medical Department teachers nodded in agreement.
"You've missed quite a bit of coursework. If you need help with anything, feel free to ask any of us." "If you're shy, you can also ask Libby. She's an excellent student and lives in the dorm room next to yours." Flora nodded absent-mindedly, "Got it. If that's all, Mr. Trevor, I'll be on my way." Mr. Trevor's smile was kind, "Off you go then."
Leaving the office, Flora headed to the Computer Science building. Mr. Jurado had called her to join a celebration dinner.
The dinner was supposed to be held the day before, but since Flora and Brianna were absent, it was rescheduled for today. After being delayed by Mr. Trevor, she arrived at the classroom later than expected.
"Go ahead without me. You'll have more fun if I'm not there," Mr. Jurado said with a smile. "Have a good time, but don't go overboard, okay? Remember to bring back the receipt for reimbursement." "Mr. Jurado, why don't you cwith us?" "Do you really wantto go?" Mr. Jurado raised an eyebrow.
"Uh..." Ivan touched his nose, realizing he had only said it to be polite.
