Summary: Kutner ponders what made him like Thirteen.
For Kutner, the attraction was definitely not initial. Of course, when he first saw her she was beautiful, but he wasn't really into her. She was just a girl that was hiding something (or pretending to hide something) and Kutner had never valued an air of mystery. Most guys were star struck by her looks.
He didn't give a damn really. If she was a good doctor, go her, if not, oh well.
She was a good doctor. And, interestingly enough (to him at least), she never saw things as absolute. She saw a lot of grey area, she believed people could change, and didn't judge people or put them in boxes.
So Kutner respected Thirteen.
She kind of bit his head off a lot, he noticed. It was stupid a lot, and he didn't care. Women were like that.
He still didn't really know much about Thirteen (and he didn't bother asking really) and that perpetually irritated him.
After getting turned down by Amber (and moping for a day or so, admittedly), he finally acknowledged it.
Thirteen was beautiful, and despite her mystery and avoidance, he liked her a little.
It's not like they'd be together forever and ever, or even at all.
He just appreciated the beauty a little more, now that they weren't fighting for their jobs and she was going out of her way to hide anything.
Kutner really liked Thirteen when he found out she wasn't happy (with whatever, the question hadn't been specific).
Just another one of those weird quirks he had.
He was pretty confident he could get something out of Thirteen.
Kutner had never been an insecure guy (except in high school, but who isn't insecure in high school?).
It was really the sex that put things in perspective.
It had run the gamut of things, though it had never hit the 'bad' end of the scale. It had been awkward, fun, ridiculous, lovely, rough, weird, painful, and above all, kind of nice.
So Kutner liked Thirteen (a lot).
