#Chapter 116 – The Flight to Monstro

Lila’s POV “Did my father put you up to this?” I asked, staring at him with such shock. Val was instantly in a better mood as she cooed “I told you so.” “He might have mentioned not wanting you to go on this trip alone,” Enzo admitted. “I can’t believe he would do that,” I said, feeling a little hurt. “He cares about you and was worried,” Enzo said with a shrug. “You’re busy enough. He didn’t need to pull you away from your duties this summer to babysit me.” “I was probably going to go anyways,” he said, sounding disinterested as he looked out the window. “What? Why?” I asked, peering over at him with raised brows. He sighed before looking back at me. “Do you really have to ask?” We stayed silent for a moment longer; staring at one another. I felt like the breath was taken right out of my mouth and my heart was beating rapidly against my chest. At one point, Enzo looked down at my lips and I thought that maybe he would kiss me. Part of me was hoping that he would.
