"I was just trying to be cute, and then you were crying and everyone was confused..." Mitch groaned. "Stop it! I was terrified." "I'm sorry, Mitchell. I'll stop." "You're mean." "I know." "Like... Really mean. But only to me, for some reason." "I said I'd stop. Now you have to stop too." Mitch frowned at him. "Make me."
