Alex pressed her fingers as he awaited her response and Cat snapped back to the present, "No, it doesn't hurt. Do you remember that day back in school, when you'd gotten so angry with Nate's friends after they'd gotten me with that football?"
"You were such a dork. I'd even called out to give you a heads up. But you'd been so busy focused on your books that you didn't hear me," He half smirked but then grew serious, "I didn't tell this to you that day but you took ten years off my life when you lay sprawled out onto the ground like...You didn't even move till I ran up to you."
"Awww...try getting smacked down with a football by a 6 foot, 200-pound gorilla when you're just a tiny little girl. I was lucky I didn't suffer a concussion," She teased him.
"Yeah, right. You...a tiny, little girl," Alex almost snorted.
"What? I am or at least I was," She smiled conspiratorially.
