"I dunno."

Selena's words hit him like a bucket of cold water, calming him down instantly.

He glanced at her, relieved she didn't drop some other guy's name. Just a simple "I dunno."

His heart, which felt like it was in a vice, finally got some air. He pulled her into a hug and asked, "Why not give it a shot with me?" His voice softened now that he was chill.

"Mr. Montague, you don't even like me that much," Selena replied.

She barely finished before he let out a cold laugh. He looked down at her, ignoring everyone else around, just staring her down. His feelings were intense, like thick ink.

"Selena, you keep saying I don't like you, but really, you just don't wanna admit I do. You deny my feelings from the get-go. You don't wanna face me or deal with anything between us 'cause you wanna ditch me so bad," he said. So, what she said was really for herself. Raymond found it both funny and sad.
