Urgh. Don’t look.
But it was like her brain and eyes weren’t connected as she snuck a peek.
This time he was cross-eyed and had pressed the tip of his nose up. His tongue was off to the side.
Silly.
Uh-oh. That was definitely a smile on her lips. No! She could make it an hour staying mad at him, right?
“Tough nut to crack. Hmm. How about if I sing that grumpiness out of you?” he asked.
Sing? Wait, no!
He started.
Oh. My. God.
She tried to block the awful noise, but it didn’t stop. There was no blocking it.
“No! No!” she cried out as she started giggling. “Stop! Mercy!”
“Are you going to stop being mad at me?” He kept singing.
“Yes! Yes, all right! I’ll stop!”
The horrid noise stopped, and she glared at his smug face. “You play dirty.”
He grinned. “I sure do, baby girl. Come on, time to eat. You get hangry when you haven’t eaten for a while.”
“I do not!” she snapped.
“You sure? Because you seem pretty hangry right now.” He winked at her before jumping out and moving around the front of the truck.
How rude.

He opened the door as she was trying to undo the buckle of her seatbelt.
“It’s broken! It won’t undo.”
“Shh. I’ve got it.” He undid it in one go. Of course. Women’s bras probably undid themselves with one look from him.
“I’m sure there was something wrong with it. You must have fixed it,” she muttered.
“I’m sure that’s exactly what happened.”
Grr. Why was he placating her?
Well, what would you rather? That he argue with you?
Hm. Crap. Maybe she was hangry. She usually hated an argument. Conflict wasn’t her thing. She’d rather run than go up against someone.
With a sigh, she took the hand he held out. He led her toward the diner, then opened the door to let her in. She had a strange feeling as they entered the restaurant but shook it off.
“Are you all right?” he asked as their server showed them to a booth. She slid in on one side.
