as the days went onthe boy from the store (whose name is Devin) would begin to show signs of attraction to me
it shocked me. i had never been desired in this way
it started off with him joking around with me in subtle ways
if i wore a red shirt he would tell me i was a "rose"
his friends were nothing less of assholes
and there were times when he would jump to my defense
a joke was passed around the class about me having no tits
but devin saying that my other assets made up for it
made me feel like a million dollars
if devin said it, then it must be true
if devin called me a rose then i must be special
during exams i would catch him staring at me with a look that wasn't innocent
surveying my entire figure
studying me
even licking his lips slightly
my face with burn a if someone was holding a candle close to it
i was always scared to turn to face him but i knew he was watching me
whenever courage struck me and i dared to look in his direction,
he would wink at me
it wasn't weird at all but instead taunting
but just as soon as his friend would look in his direction in suspicion- he would turn away
after his friend would get bored trying to figure us out
he would turn to face me again
it was a game he played
and he enjoyed it
i did to
