Description:

It's not because she's strong; He’ll be able to match her…eventually.

He splits the deck again and tugs harder than he should, bending another card in half. The card is quickly plucked and tossed onto the floor.

Every small jump of his nerves whenever his gaze lands on her. Every wave of heat that washes over him whenever she humors him…or smiles at him.

Gods…that smile.

He huffs quietly; He's just bent another card. He flicks the card away with one finger, then rearranges the deck and sets it down before he can ruin it any further.

What's wrong with him? Why won't it stop?

⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯ ⋅⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯
He doesn't know when it started, why it started, and why it won't stop... But he'll find out, one memory at a time.
