Letting his gaze fall to where Romilda's hand moved over his arm, he watched it for a moment, as though hypnotized or baffled by her attentions. With a slight smirk, he looked up at her. "You think I'm old fashioned? I don't know whether to be flattered or insulted. If I'm to be wooed, I'd rather it not be by a complete stranger. You should tell me a bit more about yourself, Miss Vane."
Adrian gave her an odd look and then actually, physically shuddered. "Eugh!" he exclaimed, his lip curling back in disgust. "I know it's been several years, but do you remember just how disgusting we were in school? There's no way I would find any of them remotely attractive. Turning them down would no doubt be devastatingly easy- devastating, at least, to their ego."
