Sweet and Trim

[Pronunciation note: it's not Tree-na. It's Trihnah, like the I in itch. Or bitch.]

Trina knew it was a mistake, even as her lips brushed his. Handsome, handsome boy. If only he'd look at her for more than half a moment.

He pushed her away, laughing, charming her even in her disappointment. "What was that?"

"Couldn't you tell?"

"Look -- no. Just -- no."

"But --"

"Marvin," he said. The obstacle that kept her from herself, and kept him from her.

"Fuck him."

"I did," with a grin, so flip, so automatic, and then, more seriously, "I know that's why you hate me."

"I don't -- I really don't."

"It would be better if you could."

"I know."
