Catherine looked at the bottle of water and felt her throat was a little dry. She figured it must be because he had turned the heater up too high in the car—that had to be why she felt like this.
After thanking him, she took the bottle and drank a few sips. Just as she was about to screw the cap back on and hand it to him, his long arm reached over and took the bottle from her. He lifted it to his lips and drank straight from it. By the time Catherine tried to stop him, it was already too late.
"Hey— I already drank from that…"
He didn't mind at all, tilting his head back and drinking more than half of it.
Catherine watched his Adam's apple move as he swallowed and quickly looked away.
After he finished drinking, Bert glanced at her and deliberately teased her.
"We've kissed so many times already. What's there to avoid about sharing a bottle of water?"
Catherine couldn't even be bothered to respond.
