"Hey, I'm not some helpless little girl! And besides... if they try anything funny, my sensei would kick their asses!" She snorted softly. "Besides, it's not like anyone's ever touched me there without my permission." Her voice trailed off, causing Ben to look at her quizzically. "What? You think I'm a virgin or something?" she teased, arching an eyebrow.

"Oh, please! Like I'd tell you that!" she exclaimed, laughing lightly. "Besides... it doesn't matter how many people have touched me there before, right? It's not like we're talking about something romantic or anything." Her voice dropped to a husky whisper as her gaze flickered down toward Ben's lap again, leaving him feeling even more flustered.
