I opened e fries with extra cheese and chili

The girl’s eyes went to me and they widened

I wasn’t sure if it was because I’d started eating instead of answering or because she was disgusted by the amount of food that had to be mine

When I took a rather long slurp of my chocolate shake, Pace started to snicker

“Nah, I think we’re good,” he said “Thanks, though”

She tossedhis lower body in his pants

When her eyes lit on his legs, I could tell that there were about half a million questions on her mind

“Oh, ,” she said “I didn’t realize you were h to do daily activities?”

The girl was silent for a few seconds following that statehter

“I’” She skated off faster than she’d arrived

“You just told that girl I fucked you against the counter,” he said “And then mowed the lawn after”

“Yeah, so?” I reached for er

I was starving

I had no idea how hungry I was until he’d forced me over here

He just shook his head and started to dig into his own food

It was as I was finishing upanother one that he said, “I love how protective you are”

I grinned

“I’irl ay out of line Who the hell asks someone that?”

“People are curious,” he said “I’m not offended I don’t mind when they ask”

I huffed out an annoyed breath

“Just because you are comfortable doesn’t mean that I am,” I said “I’m just annoyed I…I’m in a bad mood I think I’m about to start my period”
