"What a stupid statement. Of course I'm not going to be scared you dimwit."
Alex rolls his eyes.
"I was trying to intimidate you. I'll keep working on that."
No Alex, I was intimidated. As fuck. But you don't need to know that.
"You're a dumbass." I simply say.
He keeps his eye on the T.V screen where Jason is killing a blonde girl.
"And for some reason you like it, Alina."
I tense.
"No I don't."
He chuckles deviously.
"You don't? Could've fooled me."
I relax my expression.
"You didn't even deny that you're a dumbass."
He shrugs.
"I know I'm not the brightest crayon in the box, but I can hold my own."
I roll my eyes.
Dumbass.
"Now stop changing the subject. You like me." He says taking his eyes off the movie and turning to give me an intense stare.
Now I'm the one with her eyes glued to the television.
I try to keep my face expression nonchalant, but on the inside I'm freaking out.
How is he just going to ask me that out of nowhere?
What the fuck do I say?
Fuck, I'm really fucked.
I take a breath.
"Why don't we talk about you liking me?" I ask.
My eyes widen.
Did those words just escape my mouth.
Now I'm going to be the one to look like an idiot. Great.
He chuckles deep and throaty.
He moves my face to look at him and keeps his fingers caressing my cheek.
"Of course I like you sweetheart." Alex whispers and stares deeply into my eyes.
My eyes widen.
"Um, what?" I ask confused.
He laughs.
Hard.
