Sneak peak:
Chapter 25: Blame it on the Hormones
The planned take out dinners turned into an improvised date at Elizabeth's. They had a picnic on her living room carpet. She had been so surprised and happy to see him that she invited him home. She wasn't very fond of eating alone, the more the merrier was usually her motto when it came to dining.
Elizabeth was soon getting all too aware of William's presence in her apartment, which suddenly felt very small. She was glad she had taken the time to shower and changed her skimpy shorts for a more modest dark grey skirt and a short sleeved blouse. But Elizabeth was still very self conscious of her clothing.
She watched him handle the chop sticks expertly. She just fumbled with hers and was soon forced to go fetch knife and fork, she just couldn't concentrate to hold the sticks right. He even offered to help her, but the closeness to him, his scent, his hand on hers just made her fumble even more.
"I'm a girl who likes to eat her food warm," she said as she chucked the sticks away and dug in with her fork. He smiled slightly at that, and her heart fluttered in response.
