By the third period, the kids are already done.
You and Steve have been insufferable since first bell. The two of you had been teasing each other non stop. Him stealing you pen just so you have to lean across his desk to get it back. You flicking his ear in retaliation. Him whispering something that makes you swat his chest and blush.
„Can you guys not?“ Dustin groans at lunch. „It’s ten in the morning.“
„We’re literally just sitting here,“ you say innocently, batting your lashes.
Steve slides an arm around your chair anyway. „Yeah, Henderson. We’re being very respectful.“
„You just called her pretty girl five minutes ago,“ Lucas mutters.
Steve shrugs with a grin. „She is.“
You smile up at him, leaning into his embrace just to make the kids gag louder. By the end of the day, the teasing has escalated into full warfare.
You steal his keys. He steals your backpack. You threaten to tell embarrassing Scoops Ahoy stories. He reminds you he knows where you live.
The bell rings and you take off running with his keys.
Steve narrows his eyes immediately. „Oh no. Nope, not gonna happen.“
Too late. You reach his car first, yank open the passenger door, and slide into the seat with the most smug expression imaginable.
Steve approaches slowly, hands on his hips. He gives you The Look.
„Seriously?“ He says.
You blink up at him. „What?“
„You know the rules.“
„I don’t recall signing anything.“
He exhales through his nose like he’s deeply disappointed in you as a person. Then he opens the door wider.
You expect a lecture but instead he leans in, hooks an arm behind your back and one under your knees, and lifts you clean out of the seat.
You gasp. „Steve!“
He sets you gently on your feet beside the car, shuts the door, then very deliberately reopens it. „There,“ he says smoothly. „Now we can do this properly.“
You stare at him, half scandalized, half delighted. „You are ridiculous.“
He leans with one hand against the top of the doorframe, smirking down at you. „You know,“ he says tipping your chin up with his free hand. „Pretty girls don’t open their own doors.“
You roll your eyes. „Oh my god.“
„It’s a rule,“ Steve continues. „I didn’t make it. It’s the law.“
You step closer, poking his chest. „And what if I don’t want this princess treatment?“
He lowers his voice just slightly, playful but softer as he leans down to kiss you right beneath your ear. „Oh I know that you love it and I won’t stop.“
Your smile grows wider as his breath caresses your skin, giving you goosebumps all over your body. Then you recover. „So this is about you, huh?“
„Always,“ he grins.
You sigh dramatically and slide back into the seat like royalty reclaiming her throne. Steve shuts the door gently this time. As he walks around the car, Dustin and the others pass by, all of them watching with very mixed emotions - mostly disgust and embarrassment.
„This has to be sick,“ Dustin announces. „It’s sickening me.“
Steve just beams as he gets into the driver’s seat. „Ah, we know you love us.“
They do. But they won’t tell him that.
You reach over and tug lightly on the collar of his jacket. „Thank you, Harrington,“ you say sweetly.
He glances at you, soft and smug all at once. „Anything for my pretty girl.“
From the sidewalk you hear the kids shouting. „WE CAN STILL HEAR YOU!“
