Will murmured softly, his eyes starting to close again.
"Hey!" Jessica raised her hand and patted his face. "Stay awake for me... that night, did you really not touch me?"
Now, she had to find a way to keep him awake. If he fell asleep now, he might not wake up again.
"No."
"Why?"
"I... I wouldn't do... something so despicable..."
"Hmph—" Jessica huffed, "As if you're such a gentleman!"
"..."
The man didn't respond.
"Hey!" Jessica leaned in to look at his face, raised her palm, and slapped him hard, "Wake up, do you hear me? I'm not done asking you questions yet!"
After being slapped, Will roused himself with some regained spirit, "What... what do you want to ask?"
"You..." Jessica held his face, "You like me, don't you?"
The corners of the man's lips curled up slightly, but he didn't make a sound.
"Speak up!"
Jessica growled lowly.
