"What? It's not stupid," the boy disagreed. I dunno, Kylo Ren seemed cool, even if it was a sort of parody of himself." You shrugged one shoulder. "So, what, you decided to watch Star Wars because of Driver?" "Yeah, he's definitely awesome," the boy agreed, nodding. "I must've watched the skit a hundred times. Ever." The boy laughed, the sound pleasant and warm to your ears. "I love Undercover Boss, so even though I was sure I wouldn't understand the Star Wars in-jokes and references, I still wanted to see the skit. "Right!" you said, twisting your body so that you faced him. "Um, I was browsing YouTube when I came across an SNL skit video. The boy's brown eyes lit up in amusement. It's just."

Looking over at him, you found him staring at your still lit lock screen. Yet you always came back because you loved their spicy chicken wings. This restaurant was notorious for failing to deliver food in a timely manner, whether eating out or dining in. According to the time, more than five minutes had passed and still no food.

Stifling a sigh, you returned your eyes to the floor. You thought he looked irresistibly adorable. His eyebrows were furrowed and eyes narrowed at his phone's screen. You snuck another glance at the boy, his attention still on his phone. Though you exercised daily and ate reasonably well, still you struggled losing weight, much to your ever growing frustration. You could see your reflection in the polished, white tile and frowned, not really liking what stared back at you.įor as long as you could remember, you've always struggled with your physical appearance. You shifted your gaze to the floor so as to not appear creepy. The young man took the seat by the far wall, removing his cell phone from his pocket and tapping away at the screen. He rubbed his hands, glancing at you and flashing a brief smile before approaching the counter. Your eyes slightly widened when a very attractive young man around your age stepped inside, his cheeks rosy from the cold. A soft jingle played when the front double glass doors swung open. Nodding, you sat down in the lobby area, lightly patting your lap to an unheard tune. Once you handed over the payment, the cashier said your food should be out in five minutes. Nodding, she typed in the computer, then brought her gaze back up to meet yours. "Hello, I'm here to pick up an order," you told the cashier, smiling.
