“So,” Chastity began, breaking that silence.
Jack nodded as he sipped his drink. “Yeah.”
All of a sudden, Chastity decided to go for broke. “Jack?” she began again.
“Yes?” he responded, turning his attention towards her.
She hesitated again, but took a breath and gathered herself. “Do you think…” she hesitated again, and looked away.
Jack, oblivious to Chastity’s inner turmoil, asked, “Do I think what?”
She sighed. “Do you think we’d make a good couple?” she asked, very quietly.
Jack closed his eyes and then very slowly opened them. Was it just him, or had his heart suddenly stopped, flipped over, and then restarted again? Or… ah, that explained it. He must have misheard her.
