" You're really something, aren't you? " Alex drawled out lazily as he stared up at her from under his thick lashes. Ava ignored him and continued, loudly this time.

" And it's Adams, not Evans " She corrected him firmly.

Alex threw her a look which meant he didn't take lightly to being corrected. Ava returned his look with a defiant stare and they remained that way for a while until Alex finally gave up with a sigh. She wouldn't be easy to deal with, something within him kept giving him a warning signal.

Ava took a deep breath and continued " So uh... I was your babysitter when you were... Sick " She kinda stressed the last word and looked down at her feet.

When she didn't receive any reaction from him, she looked up and found him staring right back at her.

" Hmm, you were my babysitter " He nodded and gave her a dangerous smile which chilled Ava down to her spine.

His demeanor changed into a stiff one as though he was offended merely at the thought of her being his babysitter.
