The Challenge

The Things That Are Hidden

Me and Sebastian were now leaving the line to a small place off LA called "Burger Hut" that had the best in the entire city, as we had our orders in our hand.

I had my favorite double bacon and sunny side up eggs cheeseburger while he had his favorite, which was apparently the same thing while I kept pondering over one crazy thought.

This was actually really fun.

Having him show me this new side of him made me very hopeful for this project collab to go well maybe after all. Well...on his side anyway. London was a different struggle.

I didn't know how she would handle this if I told her about the rest of my day after the meeting. Fortunately for me, she never usually asked about how my day went anyway unless it involved getting her a new opportunity or idea.

So as far as I was concern, we were being friends. An odd situation in itself.

Still though, I was enjoying every minute of it. With Sebastian of all people too.

"Wow! I can't believe you like literally the exact one I do! Usually, it's impossible to get a hold of here because not many people know it exist. I personally love it though." I suddenly told him.

He chuckled. "Well obviously! I guess we're just one of those weirdos who would put two and two together." He asked turning to me holding his bag. I smirked.

"Among the other weirdos who think you and London should be a team and think it's a hit. Some things are just odd like that Martinez." I replied.

We both then laughed together and nodded as I felt even more relaxed.

"Alright! You make fun of my terrorizing situation, I gotta now steal your food." He then said leaning over to me.

I instantly giggled and pushed him away as our bodies came into close contact with each other as he was trying to take a bite of mine, while I was doing my extreme best not to feed into that amazing feeling I was getting again.

I laughed and shook my head. "What? Why? No! Sebastian, this is so unsanitary. You can't just eat off what I just did. My germs are all over it." I informed.

He looked to me and shrugged casually. "Eh, don't care. I'm willing to still risk it." He finished then taking one of the biggest bites I'd seen anyone ever do.

I looked to him in astonishment.

"I can't believe you! What if I just did that to you huh?!" I then asked him playfully. He smiled.

"Would you like to?" He asked in a different tone that I didn't even recognized.

It was like it sounded so intent and wanting. But that was probably my mind playing crazy tricks on me. Actually made me want to take him up on his offer.

"Maybe..." I trailed off, to see if I was willing to dare to be as bold as he was.

He smiled and bit his lip as we both then sat down at the nearest bench across from each other. He then held it over to my mouth and then stared to me carefully and intensely.

"Do it." He then firmly replied.

My whole body started to tense up staring at him back the same way, unsure why he was even doing this. Maybe this was how he showed his friendless.

I shyly nodded and leaned over to him and took the whole bite as he carefully stood still.

Seeing the way he just casually did that, the way he was staring at me now so vivid and focused with his mint kind eyes, was making me very and I meant very so...intrigued.
