Is it normal for a girl to "shy away" from touching you?

Anonymous
I was having such a great conversation/playful argument with this girl. She was making eye contact, giggling and smiling at me the whole time. We know each other and we know how to give each other a hard time but it was great and the way she looked at me, I knew there was something there.

So we were teasing and arguing and then she said (as part of the argument) "im gonna tell you something and you better listen" and her hand reached across to where mine was, but she didn't make contact but she stopped close. I wonder if she got shy or what? She usually flinches if I try to get close but hers was quite a reach all the way across but stopped, what happened?
