Perhaps he believed that if he didn't give in, the moment wouldn't end. She couldn't be certain what it was he thought. There was a time when she desired nothing more than to learn all of the intricacies of the man's brain. Now, she thought it best for both of them that they avoid each other for as long as humanly possible. They were no good for each other. She might love him until the end of time, but that didn't mean they were ever going to make it. Relationships were much more complicated than the silly romance novels and movies would have one believe.
