Ambrose. She hadn't heard that name in a long time. She had almost forgotten about him. Almost, not quite. His appearance was different, he looked very handsome no doubt about that. But he was still cocky, and still under the impression that every girl was so into him. She couldn't blame him for that, he was quite a catch, at face value of course.
Larissa didn't know what to do, she couldn't be mean to him. Literally. She couldn't tell him her name either. In fact she had hoped she'd never see him again. Ever. Things had ended very badly between them. Seeing him opened a lot of old wounds.
" I gotta go, excuse me " she said hurriedly. She stood up, and was about to go when Ambrose grabbed her wrists.
"Playing hard to get I see" he had the sexist smirk on his face. She felt a little weak in the knees. He hadn't lost his touch. Not one bit. She avoided his gaze. His eyes. They were so hypnotic. All the more reason why she had to get out of there fast. "Well? Say something or are you paralyzed?"
"Let go of me you insolent boy"
"You're so cute when you're mad". He was baiting her again, but this time she didn't bite. "Listen Mr Ambrose, stay away from me" she said sternly. He let go of her and the smirk disappeared from his face. For the first time in his life a girl had actually rejected his advances. She walked away leaving him confused.

Larissa breathed a sigh of relief when she got home. She had been able to walk away from Ambrose, because she wanted to. Something she hadn't been able to do when she was a teenager, something she wished she had done back then.
