他的眉头愤怒地纠结了片刻，然后平缓下来，他露出了知晓一切的眼神。“你没有看清楚自己，你知道的。我承认在那些不好的事情上你完全正确，”他阴郁地轻笑着，“可惜你没听到当你第一天来到这里的时候，学校里的每一个人类男性都在想什么。”
I blinked, astonished. "I don't believe it…" I mumbled to myself.
我眨了眨眼睛，惊讶不已。“我不敢相信……”我低声自言自语着。
"Trust me just this once — you are the opposite of ordinary."
“相信我，哪怕就这一次——你完全是平凡的反义词。”
My embarrassment was much stronger than my pleasure at the look that came into his eyeswhen he said this. I quickly reminded him of my original argument.
我的窘迫运甚于他说这些时的眼神给我带来的愉悦。我赶紧提醒他我最初的论点。
"But I'm not saying goodbye," I pointed out.
“可我没有说再见。”我指出来。
"Don't you see? That's what proves me right. I care the most, because if I can do it" — heshook his head, seeming to struggle with the thought — "if leaving is the right thing to do, thenI'll hurt myself to keep from hurting you, to keep you safe."
“你没看出来吗?这正是证明了我是对的。我的喜爱最深，因为如果我能做到”——他摇了摇头，似乎在和那个想法斗争着——“如果离开是正确的做法，那我宁可伤害自己以免伤害到你，只要能确保你的安全无虞。”
I glared. "And you don't think I would do the same?"
我怒目而视：“而你不认为我能做到同样的事?”
"You'd never have to make the choice."
“你永远都不必作出这样的选择。”
Abruptly, his unpredictable mood shifted again; a mischievous, devastating smile rearrangedhis features. "Of course, keeping you safe is beginning to feel like a full-time occupation thatrequires my constant presence."
突然，他喜怒无常的情绪又变了。一个顽劣的，讥讽的笑容重又出现在他脸上。“当然，确保你的安全无虞正在变成一件全时制的工作，需要我永不间断地守在你身旁。”
"No one has tried to do away with me today," I reminded him, grateful for the lighter subject. Ididn't want him to talk about goodbyes anymore. If I had to, I supposed I could purposefullyput myself in danger to keep him close… I banished that thought before his quick eyes read iton my face. That idea would definitely get me in trouble.
“今天可没人想要干掉我。”我提醒着他，很高兴能够转到一个相对轻松的话题。我不想让他再谈到任何关于别离的问题了。如果我非得这样做的话，我猜想我会刻意让自己处于险境之中，好让他靠近我……在他敏锐的眼睛从我脸上看出这个念头以前，我把它赶出了脑海。这个想法显然会给我带来麻烦的。
