I wanted to run out of the building the moment the meeting ended because the guy's daughter just had to sit next to me and just had to have her hand on my leg the entire time while looking over at me and smiling every now and again. I somehow managed to stay calm until I got back to the car.

When I did I pulled out my phone to text Jason who was the only person who who I was gay.

Sure I wasn't actually the one driving but I needed him to stop, I understood he was just looking after me because of my eating disorder but sometimes he looked out for me a little to much

Sure I wasn't actually the one driving but I needed him to stop, I understood he was just looking after me because of my eating disorder but sometimes he looked out for me a little to much.

We pulled into the McDonald's parking lot and my driver looked over at me.

"Are you sure you want to eat here?" Jules-Albert asked

"I can hold it together, McDonald's may bring memories I don't like but it doesn't trigger anything" I said

"Alright then, I'll wait here" Jules-Albert said.

I get out and decide to put my hair up as I walked in so that it didn't get in the way while I ate.

When I walked up to the counter my mouth almost dropped.

Standing at the register was a man of average height, maybe a inch or two taller then me. He's body looked like that of a California surfer and he had shaggy Blonde hair and blue eyes. His name tag said Will

After a moment of him staring at me I spoke up

"I know my eyes are creepy but could you stop staring" I said

"No, no, no. I don't find them creepy, I actually think there cool" Will said taking me by surprise

"Cool?" I asked raising an eyebrow

"Yeah, I've never seen anyone with black eyes" Will said

"....thanks" I said feeling a little embarrassed

"So what would you like?" Will asked and I looked up at the menu for a while.

"What do you usely get?" Will asked

"I don't. I actually haven't been here since I was a kid, and that's not a very fond memory" I said

"Then why'd you come here now?" Will asked

"I had a long business meeting and I didn't want to cook, so I just stopped at the first place I saw" I said not wanting to tell him the whole story about my overprotective friend.
