Didn't your mother tell you it's rude to stare?

of bacons and perfect bites

I took a peek inside my burger then proceeded to lather on the extra ketchup, mayo and mustard on it. I also placed a few of the fries in it.

No haters.

That's just my thing with burgers.

I grabbed my burger and was about to take a huge bite when I saw Matt raising an eyebrow at me.

"What is it now, Matt?" I snapped. I'm really hungry.

He just shrugged and popped a fry in his mouth and chewed...while smiling.

I huffed. Whatever. I'm eating this gorgeous burger.

I took a big bite.

I groaned.

It was the perfect bite.

I felt some of the juices dripping on my chin and hands but I didn't care. I felt a little something on the corner of my mouth. I just licked it off and started to lick my fingers too.

I was so into eating when I heard a groan emanate from in front of me.

I looked at Matt.

He had this satisfied look on his face. " Wow. I never knew how someone can look sexy while eating a burger, but you do it so well.."

I quickly stopped what I was doing and grabbed a napkin from the table and wiped my mouth and hands instead.

I crumpled the napkin and threw it at him. " Seriously, Matt." I rolled my eyes at him.

He threw his hand up to avoid the projectile and laughed.

We resumed eating.

I eventually finished my food and grabbed a couple of fries off his plate. "Hurry up, I'd like to eat dessert too." I told him while sneaking a piece of bacon.

" I love that you love eating. You're not like other girls..." He drawled out.

I stared at him, piece of bacon halfway into my open mouth.

What did he just say?!

He then held my hand that was holding the bacon and turned it to him and took a bite off my bacon.

He continued to hold my hand and move his thumb over my knuckles.

I felt my skin burn and melt in his touch. How I loved it. And I had to stop it.

"Uhm, Matt," I cleared my throat. "What is it you do exactly? are you a student at the University? You go to the library with no intentions of studying and just stare at people? What is up with that?" I asked.

I needed to steer this conversation somewhere else.

He pulled back his hand that was holding mine.

I instantly felt amiss.

"I'm taking a few courses for my post graduate studies in business while I work." He popped another fry in his mouth. " I help manage our family business, learning the ropes before I take over for my dad" He shrugged.

"My classes don't start until next week, so..I figured I'd check the place out..got lost and found myself at the library..staring at you" He whispered the last part.

"yeah..staring at me...about that..who do I remind you of anyway? I mean you've been staring a whole LOT. If I weren't nice and totally naive, I would have called the campus cops on you" I laughed.

Finally taking a bite of the bacon in my hand. "Don't tell me..an ex-gf who totally broke your heart?" I chuckled.

His face suddenly darkened, but for only a second.
