Never-Ending Plan

Xander was a little taken aback by her bold words, but a grin settled on his face, admiring her confidence.

"Is that because you're jealous, Samantha?" He asked her, his grin stretching even further.

Samantha avoided his gaze and dropped his foot gently on the ground. "You shouldn't move too much from now on because of the injury. Thankfully, it only left a graze, and so is the one on your nape. Do you understand?" She asked, avoiding his question which caused Xander to chuckle with a low volume.

When she was about to leave, he quickly pulled her towards him, forcing her to lean on him. "Are you seriously jealous, Samantha?" 

"And why would I be?" She questioned back, her green eyes boring into his dark ones with defense as she tried to mask her emotions in front of him.

Unfortunately for her, Xander had known her long enough to know when she was lying.
