"Are you really planning to date him?" Jessica came bounding over, her eyes sparkling as she unabashedly checked out Scarlett's graceful figure.
"Cut it out, jerk!" Scarlett quickened her pace, fists clenched, half-tempted to punch her best friend in the face. "I told you, we're not dating. It just seems too cruel to dismiss all his efforts outright."
"Don't you feel a bit ashamed, though? He's barely legal." Jessica hurried to catch up, clearly more concerned about the implications of an aunt dating her nephew than Scarlett's reasoning.
"What?!!" Scarlett was about to lose it. Glancing around at the patients and doctors, she suppressed the urge to explode. "If you're so curious, why don't you try it out yourself!"
Jessica's eyes lit up. "Really? You wouldn't be mad?"
"If it were actually possible, I'd be curious to try with Ethan too!"
