Hello. Again…
And the food was delicious. Spicy and well-rounded at the same time... Just the way he liked it.
His right shoulder was thudding along rhythmically, but it didn't really bother him too much. Okay, it hurt… But he had rested about an hour total, at least if he counted the train-ride, and he hadn't used his arm that day… He had been able to just let it rest in its sling all day.
While he ate, he studied Sarah. Her brown curls were amazing, and fit her perfectly. He couldn't keep his eyes off of her. As far as he knew, she was amazing.
"What?" Sarah looked up at him with a quizzical look.
Connor almost blushed, he wanted to flirt with her, start what could be a relationship with her… But was it too early? Would he scare her off if he…?
He went for a safeish answer.
"Your hair is so pretty that I had to study it."
He offered her a lopsided grin, before he returned his eyes to the bowl of chili. Just in time to miss her blush and smile. It would have been a lot easier for the both of them if he had only looked at her for four more seconds…

Sarah wasn't quite sure if she could trust her instincts. If she had any at all… The curse of being insecure of yourself… She was partly thankful that Connor looked down when he did, and partly disappointed…
Was he flirting with her? Should she flirt with him? Would she screw up everything if she started dropping hints that she liked him? Was he even interested?
She took a pause from eating her dinner to watch Connor eat and act.
Gosh… He was so beautiful.
Kind, grey eyes. Soft looking lips, and a smile that could brighten up just about anything. And yeah, the tattoos and the stubbles didn't exactly drag down on the hot-scale… She had always had a thing for boys, or men, with a bad-boy appearance.
I hope I'm good enough.
She thought about it for a split second.
There is no way I'm good enough for him. He seems to be Mr. Perfect… I'm more of a gray mouse… A boring gray mouse, with unmanageable curls…

How should he do it? How should he say it? Should he take a head on approach and just ask her to be his girlfriend? Or was that too sixth-grade-like?
Right now he was willing to listen to just about any advice he might get…
Was the comment about her hair too obvious? Or not obvious at all?
It was driving him crazy.
Okay… Kinda short chapter…
Sorry. Will come up with more, soon…
