“It’s a little funny.”

“Nuh uh.”

He burst out laughing.

“Jacob!”

“I think there might be some in your hair...”

“Oh my God, get it out!” I closed my eyes, hoping it would help the burning in my eyes.

He kept laughing as he wiped closer to my hairline. “Scarlett.”

“What?”

“Look at me.”

“I can’t. My eyes hurt. And I don’t think I can ever look at you again anyway.”

He laughed. “I’m sorry I got it in your eyes.”

“You should be.”

“You pulled back...”

“I didn’t know what a loose penis was capable of!”

He laughed. “Scarlett. Open your eyes. Please.”

I slowly opened them. “Are they red?”

“Um...nah.”

I groaned. “You’re lying.”

“They’re a little pink. Here.” He poured some more water on his shirt and handed it to me.

I blotted my eyes a bit more.

“They’re already looking better.”

“Good. Because I can’t go up to dinner with skeet eyes.”

He laughed.

“Why am I so bad at this?”

“You’re not bad. Like I said...I loved it.”

“Really?”

He smiled. “Really. We can practice that whenever you want.” He stood up and put his hand out for me.

I grabbed his hand and he helped me to my feet.

“You might want to splash some water in your eyes though.”

I laughed. “Can we maybe not tell anyone that I flubbed this again?”
