Ben’s eyes had to restrain themselves from rolling at Flora’s comment. Like he had a snowballs chance in hell on a first date with a girl this classy. But that fact that Ermanno and Flora knew Jackie’s mom didn’t seem to really surprise him. They knew everyone worth knowing really…and once, long ago; he had decided that that fact wasn’t so odd, he never gave it another thought.
“Seems like it…no wonder you can claim your pizza is special, seems you had an amazing teacher. I’d be honored to try it some time.” He couldn’t resist sneaking in another attempt, since his first hint seemed to catch a little interest.
He looked to her, admiring how her big amethyst eyes seemed to invite him in, filling him with a longing to be with her. Almost unconsciously he leaned in, until his lips nearly brushed hers, then backed off a faction of a hair. Would she come to him? Would she leave him hanging, as it felt, on the edge of sheer joy, and utter rejection?
