I looked at him more closely.

“Do you work at only like one of the attractions?”

No answer.

“Sullivan.”

His eyes moved down to me.

“I’m trying to have a conversation with you.”

“I noticed.”

“And you are terrible at it.”

“I noticed that too.”

I laughed.

“Okay. Well what attraction are you working at?”

“Why?”

“Just call me curious.”

“About the carnival?”

I hesitated. What if this was the mystery man that kissed me last year?

“Sure.”

His eyes stayed on mine. They were dark. Intense. Mesmerizing.

I looked away first.

“Are you going to tell me?”

No answer.

I looked back at him to see his attention was back on the crowd.

“I don’t like you.”

I don’t know why I said that. I didn’t even know him like that, but he brings something out of me.

“I know.”

“You say that a lot.”

“Because you talk a lot.”

My mouth fell open.

I glanced down at his mouth to see what looked like possibly a smirk curving at his lips.

“Are you making fun of me?”

He didn’t say anything.
