play when you see the *
After eating at the restaurant I feel like I can't move. "That was amazing," I state while wiping my lips with the napkin. He smiles with a low chuckle. "I'm just going to go to the bathroom and freshen up." I excuse and start making my way to the toilet. I look in the mirror and fix my hair. My belly is sticking out a little from eating so much, but it should be fine. I wash my hands and make my way out of the bathroom when I bump into a hard surface. "Oh, god I am so sorry." I apologize to the gentleman.
"That's completely fine. Are you okay?" he asks. He's quite good-looking. Brown eyes and brown hair. He has a navy blue shirt on with grey jeans. "Uh, yeah I'm okay." I laugh with embarrassment.
"I'm Zack, by the way." he introduces himself.
"Mack," I reply
"Well, maybe I can make up for this little altercation by taking you out sometime."
I give a nervous laugh. "I'm actually-" I begin to say before I hear Hunter's voice interrupt me.
"She's with me," he says walking up to me. He wraps his arm around my waist bringing me closer to him. I know I should move away from him, but I don't want to. "So I suggest you fuck off before I bump you into something else. It won't be as cute I promise you." I look at Hunter trying to cover the shock I'm feeling towards his choice of words. I give the guy an apologetic smile and he walks into the boy's bathroom with a scoff. "Come on, we're going" he demands.
We get outside and I'm slightly annoyed at his tone towards Zack. He opens my side of the door to allow me into the car and I sit down annoyed. He comes back into his seat and begins driving. "You didn't have to talk to him like that," I state
"What?" he questions with annoyance filling his voice
"I accidentally bumped into him. He didn't even know I was there with a guy," I reply
He scoffs and laughs. "Yes he did," he replies
"What?"
"I saw him watch you walk to the toilets. He saw me on the table and then spoke something to his friends and made his way to the toilets."
"Oh." I manage to say.
I feel guilty because I feel as if I have ruined the day for him. He's in a mood and it's because of my stupidity. I lower my head and play with my fingers. I should have kept my coat on when walking towards the bathroom. "I'm sorry." i apologize
"What?" he questions but this time his voice is softer.
"I would have kept my coat on if I knew he would stare," I state
"Mackenzie, what the fuck are you talking about?"
"I'm just saying, maybe if I didn't draw attention to myself, he wouldn't have tried anything."
