I had to test who he was smiling at. I moved to the right and his gaze meets mine. That means he was either following my movement or he was following me. I went over to him and his smile got smaller. Or was it just my imagination?
"So you guys are ok?" Daniel asked
"Ok as we will ever be" I responded. My mind was filling up with thoughts that shouldn't be thoughts.
My mind was saying "O look at those two, such a great couple. Lilly and Daniel, I can see their wedding up ahead. Don't worry Grace you will be in the background. O, and your missions you will do great looking at them. Meet your new boss, the newlyweds. Isn't that sweet? No wonder he took so long to come looking for you. His life is better without you"
I couldn't keep my mind from talking. Everything around me was zoned out. I want out of my mind. My mind finally shut up and Daniel was looking at me.
"What?" I asked a little rudely.
"What do you want to eat?" Lilly asked
"I don't care" I respond.
"Pasta," Daniel said.
"No ew, pizza. We will have pizza" pasta was the worst thing in the world. The smell, the texture, the sauce was all disgusting.
"Hey you did that on purpose" I finally said.
"You just realized that?" Daniel asked sarcastically.
"No, I knew it from the start"
"Then why did you take so long to say it"
"I was giving you some time to think I forgot you were sneaky"
"So pizza?" Lilly asked. I forgot she was there.
"Pizza," I said with a smile. Then my mind said one last thing before we got ready for dinner
"don't you remember that Lilly loves pasta. They would be a wonderful couple"
"Actually we can go to the restaurant 3.5 miles away from here," I said.
"So you still know the underground places," Daniel said.
"Wait what's 3.5 miles away from here?"
"A pizza-pasta place. We would always go there when we would fight about where to go for dinner" Daniel responded.
"So why are we going there?" Lilly asked.
"Because you hate Pizza and you love pasta. Plus I'm not giving up on my usual"
"Which is," Lilly asked
"A third cheese, a third pepperoni, and a third ham. The perfect combination"
