言ってた　I said or You said


While translating something, I was wondering how should I do a certain a line
because I can't determine exactly whether the speaker says it in a way talking
about himself or is referring to another character.  
So there are 2 characters that I will call A and B. A says:

> まだ三戦しかしていないだろう  
>

This, if I'm translating okay means "We only (or merely) fought 3 times", but
the reply from character B had me asking just who was he referring to. He says
this:

> なんだよ。昨夜はずっと「もうやめてくれ」言ってたくせにさ  
>

So I was wondering here, how would this line sound? I can see that he is
quoting, my first interpretation was 'Come on, geez! Even when last night you
kept saying "stop it already"?  
Then I thought, but isn't it possible that B could say it like this?:  
Even though last night **I** said "give it up already".  
  
So, B could be quoting himself? Is that a possibility? Honestly, sometimes I
don't know how to identify who was the one who did an action if I don't
specifically have a pronoun clearly mentioned (like in this case, maybe if B
said お前, I could go with my first translation).  
I can deduce most of the time without pronouns, but there are instances when I
can't figure out.  
I hope I explained well enough...




I think your first translation is right and thinking B quote himself is
strange.

Your translation of A is I think perfect.  

> We fought only three times.  
>

I think key is 〜してたくせに.  
In conversation, This phrase is mostly used to quote and criticize other’s
behavior .  

and I also think you can deduce the person who said「もうやめてくれ」from context.  
In this sentence, A is trying to provoke B to continue “fight” with A.  
So you can deduce that B said something like “ I want to stop fighting” or B
couldn’t continue to fight before the A’s sentence.  
And then B respond 「なんだよ」. this represents little sulking of B.(I don’t know
“sulk” is correct word of ふてくされてる in English)  
the reason why B is sulking is A change his attitude to “fight”. last night, A
said「もうやめてくれ」 when B tried continued fighting, but tonight A is trying to
continue fighting even though B says someone like what A said last night.  
This is my interpretation as naive Japanese speaker.  

For the first time I reed your sentence, I thought you translate some kinds of
BL book. Sorry if I’m wrong. If you explain the whole situation, maybe I can
explain this more accurate
