Keegan looked coldly at her and sneered, “Why would your blows improve my injuries? Who do you think you are? A goddess?” ’ “Yeah,” Stella replied, poker-faced. “You used to say that I’m a goddess, so I guess that makes my blows extra special.”
Keegan was stunned, “That’s absurd! I’d never say something so cheesy!”
“Tsk. This is nothing compared to the cheesy things you used to say to me. For example, you’ve told me you can’t live without me. You also said I’m the only one you love and want us to be together forever. You’re especially cheesy during…”
“During what?”
Stella wanted to lean in and whisper in his ear, but Keegan stopped her, “Don’t come closer. You can say it right there.” i “But it’s inappropriate to say out loud.”
Keegan unscrewed his water bottle and said, “Just say it!”
Stella smirked and said, “You’re especially cheesy during… sex. You love calling me baby, saying that I’m soft and sweet. You said you’re willing to do anything for me.”
“Pfft- Cough, cough-” Upon sipping water, Keegan involuntarily sprayed out half of it and choked on the remaining portion. His face and neck turned red.
Stella walked over, worriedly patting his back. “I told you I couldn’t say it out loud. I know you don’t remember me. You probably still think you’re a virgin. This topic is too much for you,” she said, somewhat aggrieved.
Keegan’s ears reddened as he coughed. He glared at Stella, embarrassed and annoyed. “You’re so… vulgar!”
Stella rolled her eyes, thinking Keegan’s amnesia had turned him into an innocent college boy. The banter between them used to be much more efficient, i “Yeah, yeah,” Stella accepted the comment. “Stop coughing, or your wound might split open.”
