"The bleeding stopped," Helen spoke, wiping the last drop of her blood away. Thankfully the cut wasn't too bad, it just stung when she first squeezed the drink opener. "I should've been paying attention," she said, placing the blood-filled napkin in a nearby trash can.
"It can't be helped if you were in a trance looking at me. I have that effect on a lot of people," Eli stated with the intention of teasing Helen. He had felt her strong gaze on him right before she got cut. He couldn't help but push her buttons just to see Helen flare-up.
Helen sighed annoyed at the mere fact she had been caught and even worse, she had cut herself in the process. "Get over yourself," She muttered in denial. Helen decided to tune out Eli and just focus on the movie. She couldn't embarrass herself if she just watched the movie and remain silent.
"Cat got your tongue? What happened to your normal sheer honesty?" Eli asked, enjoying Helen trying to ignore his words.
