Branch Two Hundred and Seven

Jessica was glad for once that the radio was on. There was a long awkward interaction between both of them from the house and Xavier had switched on the radio.

He just had to have the radio switched on because he was not sure what to say and it was better to drown out the noise. A love song began playing over the radio and blasting fully into the car.

Jessica cleared her throat and looked around her eyes darting around the car uncomfortably. She hated the situation. The lyrics of the song were very sensual and kind of demanding.

She could not help herself as her hand went to the radio controls and Xavier's hand went there too. She felt the contact electrify her whole body as his hand recoiled and she looked out the window.

"You can change it to whatever suits you"

Jessica looked at him as his eyes were fixated on the road. Did he also feel what she just felt? That jolt of electricity that made her feel alive?

"It's fine, You can change it since you wanted to do so earlier"
