I never saw myself attractive. I wasn't that polite or kind, either. I never considered myself as someone anybody would find... likable. But Ares looked at me as he said those words. He looks at me the way I look at him. In normal situations, I would have come up with something witty to counter. But it wasn't a normal situation. Ares just confessed his feelings for me. And I didn't know what to say, honestly. I have prepared myself for what he would say if I confessed to him but I did not prepare myself for what to do if he's the one who'll confess. I didn't think he saw me that way. But now, he looked at me as if he was scared. What he said, it mirrored his eyes, his voice, his words. I looked at him. Really looked at him. And there it was, the look in his eyes as if he never laid him
