(EDITING) "You can't keep doing that..." she whispers, avoiding eye contact with me as she pretends to stare at the computer screen. "Doing what?" I ask, acting oblivious as fuck. I just want to hear those words out of her mouth. "Talking like this to me and doing that," she replies while motioning to the pen on my hand which I just took out. "You mean flirting?" I smirk. I'm sure she knows that I am flirting with her, I have been since the night I met her. I just need her to admit to it, I need to know that she is aware of it and that she is not refusing them. Now, she just told me not to but her voice, her body is telling me the opposite. ________ Eighteen-year-old Kelsey Hale is the girlfriend of the star basketball player in their High School.
