Star-Crossed Legacy

Like a bratty little sister. I'm not sure why I said that. Probably because I shouldn't be saying she's cute or commenting on her appearance at all.

Vanessa doesn't reply, but I can tell that comment bothered her. Her cheeks are flushed, and she's staring extra hard at her menu.

"I have to go to the bathroom," she says abruptly and gets up without looking at me.

After she disappears around the corner into the hallway where the bathrooms are located, I let the menu drop and bury my face in my hands. What the hell am I doing? I should be treating her like a prisoner, right? Or shouldn't I? I don't know anymore. And I sure as hell don't know how to treat a prisoner like her.
