Even though she knew he was messing with her, she didn’t falter. She sat with her back straight and her arm extended towards him. The pen that balanced between her thumb and index finger did not waver with impatience. Julianna noted the way his eyes dropped to her nicer pens on the desk. Certainly not, take what she was offering and be grateful.
The pen was removed from her hand and she was able to return to her studying. He was still smirking as he looked at her ears. He was always looking at her ears. It didn’t bother her, because even though she wouldn’t admit it aloud, she found she liked the attention. He could have been less smug about it, sure, but it made it easier for her to give him to cold shoulder and keep him at a distance.
She was not interested in a repeat of her last relationship.
Julianna had filled half of her blank page with new notes while Owen was speaking. How she could possibly have more information to write down was baffling. But Owen was right, she was very organized and hated being unprepared for anything. She lifted her head, but only to frown and roll her eyes at him regarding his handle on public opinion.
Before she could respond, he was pointing down at her nicer pens and asking to borrow one, after she had just given him a pen to use. Owen touched the red handled pen in the middle of grouping and Julianna placed her entire hand over the bunch, fingertips sliding over his and pulled the set closer to her body. “No. I gave you a pen already.”

I fear no fate (for you are my fate, my sweet) I want no world (for beautiful you are my world, my true) and it’s you are whatever a moon has always meant and whatever a sun will always sing is you.
