As the afternoon wore on, we decided to move the movie to my room and watch it from my bed. We both climbed into bed, with Rachel lying on one side and me on the other. We were both lying under the covers, but we didn't have a big blanket to share, so we ended up snuggling up close to stay warm.
Eventually, the movie ended, and we both lay there in silence for a few moments. I could feel Rachel's eyes on me, and I knew that she could feel my eyes on her too. It was like we were both waiting for something to happen, but we weren't sure what.
Rachel, who is a year older than me, has always been a bit of a mystery to me. We didn't really talk much before I moved in, but since then, we've been trying to get to know each other better. She's always seemed a bit standoffish, but I could tell that she was trying to be friendly.
