“You like me.”
Dean looked up from the cup of coffee he was fixing at the counter, and flashed her a lazy grin. The grin wasn’t a lie but it was a cover. Dean hadn’t liked a girl this much since Cassie, and considering the way that things with Cassie ended, he wasn’t sure he wanted to risk it. But he did like Lana, which kept him swinging back into town over and over again, even though he really didn’t need to be there. This was Smallville after all.
“Is that a problem for you?” he teased. “Usually people like to be liked.”
“I didn’t say it was a problem,” she teased right back, moving around the counter to stand closer to him. “I was just stating a fact.”
“Fair enough,” he mused, trying to figure out what she was getting at. Flirting with Lana Lang was like playing in a mine field, but the fun kind. She was hard to predict and that’s what made her even more intriguing. “Do you have any more facts for me?”
“Not facts,” she paused. “But I do have an opinion.”
