Brian froze, open-mouthed. Vanessa just told him to...<i>fool around </i>with Beth. And accused him of staring at her... which was true, but he wasn't about to admit that, or let it go undefended. Something was up, there was no way she was actually okay with this.<br/><br/>"I do not stare at Beth," he began, "and I'm certainly not going to touch her. I'm with you, you know that. So... no. Thank you for the offer, Beth, but we'll figure something else out. Sorry, I'm just not comfortable pretending to date you just to get an apartment."
