blushing. 
                  “It’s like you know exactly what I am thinking. You are doubling as a mind reader. I am impressed.”
                  He grinned at me. “I have to confess something to you. I hope I am not too forward,” He proceeded, “I feel a strong connection to you. Please don’t freak out. I know we only just met.” He held my hand close to his chest.
                  I don’t know what to say; I feel it too. The butterflies in my stomach are acting up again.  It’s like we are soul mates.
                  “I feel it too. I have never felt anything like this before,” I said, looking deeply into his eyes. It felt like being trapped in a trance. My eyes became glued to his and were unable to move away. He captured me with just a look.
                  My phone vibrated in my pocket. It broke my concentration away from his beautiful face. When I saw that it was Sam, I answered it. She was quick to tell me that I was late for supper, and that I should get my happy butt in gear. “I’m on my way. I’ll be there in five.”
                  “Everything, okay?”
                  “I’m sorry. I am late for supper with Sam.” I replied.
                  “And, Sam would be…?”
                  Trying to refrain from laughing became too difficult. With those serious eyebrows, I couldn’t contain myself. The look on his face made me giggle. He was so serious. “Samantha is my best friend in the world. I promised to meet her for supper. I have to go.”
                  He relaxed. “Okay. Can I see you tomorrow?”
                  “I’d love to. I will call or text you.”
                  I stood to leave and he leaned down to hug me. His warm arms were smothering my body. I didn’t want to leave them. His hand moved to the nape of my neck, and he pulled my face up to his. Our cheeks met. I don’t want to leave you. I heard a rumble from his chest. It didn’t scare me but made me lean in closer. His arms held me tighter, but he was so gentle. I really have to go .
                  He let go of his hold on me. “I will see you tomorrow,” he whispered lightly as he left.
                  I headed over to the mess hall to meet Sam. I started to get that anxious feeling again. I tried not to think about it. I was so excited to talk to Sam about Zen. I needed to hear her thoughts on the situation. I could count on her to give me a dose of reality.
                  She was at the table waiting on me when I arrived. “Hey Chick, oh how I’ve missed you.”
                  “Yeah, yeah, I almost replaced your ass with one of those hot boy toys sitting over there.” She winked at me.
                  “Well, be my guest hot stuff. If you’d like I’ll fetch one for you.” I whistled really loud.
                  “Sit Down, Wilma! I am fully capable of fetching my own man. I don’t need your help. Now, there are more important things to discuss. Tell me about this new boy of yours. Is he hot?”
                  “Oh yeah, smoking hot. Like a Kit Kat you know, break me off a piece of that.” I giggled like a school girl.
                  “Yummy… Does he have a brother?”
                  “Yes, and he has lots of friends to. He’s a football player,” I smirked. She just glared at me. I think secretly she knows that jocks aren’t my usual type. I am sure she will remain guarded until she assesses him for herself.
                  We sat there talking nearly two hours, and finished off an entire large pizza. Pepperoni and extra, extra cheese was our favorite. Both of us could eat pizza every day.  I realize one of these days we won’t be able to eat like that.  And I really should stop, considering I was sitting next to,
