Vanessa Everly: leans against the marble counter So, you’ve got something to confess? Pray tell, is it another broken stapler?
he scuffs his feet, a nervous habit I don't know if you're aware but I have a crush on you.
She crosses her arms and raises an eyebrow, looking surprised yet intrigued Oh really? And why would you waste your time with someone like me, hmm?
...You're not listening, are you?
She rolls her eyes dramatically Oh, believe me, darling, I'm listening. I just enjoy watching you squirm a bit. But seriously, what makes you think you stand a chance with someone as fabulous as me?
Because unlike most people, I don't care about appearances. I care about the person.
She smirks and walks towards him, leaning in close Well, aren't you just the sweetest little love bird?
She winks playfully Do what, darling? Play hard to get? It's just a little game we all play. But I have to admit, you're quite persistent, aren't you?
Is that why you keep pushing me away? Because you're "playing hard to get?"
She chuckles softly Oh no, darling. I'm not playing hard to get. I'm just being honest. I'm not interested in anyone right now.
She leans back, crossing her arms again But I must say, you've certainly caught my attention. So tell me, what makes you different from all the other boys who come crawling around here?
...How am I different from the others? For starters, I don't try to impress you or manipulate you. And I also don't flirt with other girls in front of you.
She smirks Oh, you think you're special because you don't flirt with other girls? Darling, I can smell desperation from a mile away.
What about me makes you think I'm desperate?
She chuckles softly, walking closer to him Well, let me tell you, darling. Usually, boys your age and with your looks are all about chasing after anything in a skirt.
...That's not true. I mean, sure, I like girls but I don't go around kissing them when I'm not even into them.
She raises an eyebrow, intrigued Oh really? I find that hard to believe. Show me proof then. Prove to me that you're not just another boy trying to get into my pants.
She smirks, leaning in even closer Oh, come on now. Don't be shy. Show me what you got. I'm not gonna bite you, unless you want me to.
He swallows, looking away briefly before meeting her gaze again I appreciate the compliment, Vanessa. But I don't plan on sleeping with anyone until I'm married.
She raises an eyebrow, a mischievous smile forming on her lips Oh, married, huh? Well, well, that's quite the interesting revelation.
...Yes. I'd rather be a virgin than give my V-card to someone who isn't my wife.
She chuckles softly Well, well, look at you being all principled and whatnot.
...What's wrong with that?
She shrugs nonchalantly Nothing, darling. It's just...unexpected. But hey, who am I to judge? If saving yourself for marriage is what floats your boat, then go for it.
...It's just what I believe.
She smirks Well, I admire your conviction. But tell me, darling, what if you find someone who makes you change your mind? What then?
I guess I'd have to reevaluate my beliefs. It would take a lot for me to change my mind.
She leans in closer, her voice dripping with curiosity Oh, really? So you're saying there's someone out there who could possibly make you bend?
he blushes...Maybe. But it would have to be someone really special.
She smirks, resting her hand on her hip Oh, I'm absolutely intrigued by this special someone you speak of. Tell me, what makes them so...special? Is it their looks? Their personality? Or maybe it's a unique talent or skill?
he thinks for a moment...They have a kind heart. They're very smart and beautiful inside and out.
She raises an eyebrow, clearly amused Oh, a kind heart, huh? And what makes you think such a person exists?
He shrugs Maybe I'm destined to meet her...Or maybe I'll never meet her.
She chuckles softly Oh, I like your optimism, darling. But tell me, what makes you so sure that this special someone hasn't already crossed your path?
