One, I was getting laid regularly already, thank you very much. I'm pretty. He, however, despite his handsomeness, was scowling at everyone so this is a change for him.
[He'll allow the teasing, because he's used teasing as a defense as well, for far longer than he'd been using anger. Teasing worked better, but it was far more difficult.]
In my opinion, if Alistair hasn't woken up to your charms after so long sharing a bed, there's no hope for him there. You'd sooner seduce Mia, which I believe is why she's sharing your bed now.
[There's a safety in constantly teasing someone who won't respond, who won't take you up on the offers you make. That's part of why he'd teased Nate as much as he had. He'd thought there was no attraction.]
And if you don't want to talk about this, then we don't have to. But I saw your smile change. And I... I know that look.
[Neither of them are good at treading into their own personal territory. He knows this. But he knows what it's like to want, to crave so much it hurts, and to think it might never be possible.]
