It was all fun, games, and flirtiness before. Now, it’s hot, awkward, and pent-up sexual energy. I know she can feel it as much as I do. As I head toward her house, all I can think about is the flirty tone in her voice. The way she just took my word for it when I told her it was Ben who left with that girl brings a smile to my face. She doesn’t know me from the next guy, and the fact that she already trusts me enough to take my word for it means a lot to me. We drive in silence for a few minutes before I finally speak again. “So, Sara, why in the world would your ‘friend’ think you would have anything in common with that douche canoe?” I ask her, trying to keep the conversation light but needing her to know that I’m not a fan of her friend at this point. She laughs and shakes her head. “Well, if you want the absolute truth….” She trails off. “Always,” I respond before she continues. She regards me for a moment, and I can tell she’s trying to watch my reaction when she finally responds.
