'Why does he always have to flirt' 

"How about I stab this fork into your eyes? So you will not mind complimenting me with that stupid mouth of yours?" Ella said, pointing the fork in her mouth and gesturing to Stefan, who ended up grinning even more.

Stefan was aware that Ella was angry with him for his earlier actions, but what could he do when Ella began acting cold toward him around the staff? To make sure she did not conceal their friendship from him, he had to make fun of her.
