“Thank you,” Aria said.
“You’re a doll,” Grant said.
Aria couldn’t deny that the food on his plate looked good. Looked so good, her mouth watered. Her salad looked great but Grant’s food looked even better.
You will get even fatter with that.
Don’t forget the calories.
The fat.
The carbs.
Just enjoy your salad.
It’s what you need.
“Do you want a fry?” he asked, holding up a nice chunky piece of fried potato.
It looked so good. So tempting. She shook her head. That was the old Aria—the Aria who enjoyed food. The new Aria was going to enjoy the right kind of food.
“I’ve got my salad.”
“Don’t worry, I won’t ask for any.”
She laughed. “It’s good.”
“Yeah, because crunching on lettuce is fun.”
She rolled her eyes. “It truly is.”
He wrinkled his nose. “Nah, it’s not.” He shoved three fries into his mouth and closed his eyes, moaning. “So good.”
Her mouth watered, but that didn’t matter. She was on her diet. No, notdiet. They never freaking worked. This was her new healthy eating plan. She shoved more leaves into her mouth, chewing. This was tasty.
“Aria, there you are.”
She turned her head to see her best friend, Lidia, walking toward her table. There was no sign of Sean around, and she quickly chewed through her food.
“Why haven’t you answered any of my calls?” Lidia asked.
“I’m so sorry. I was busy.”
“Where were you Halloween? I waited. Sean said you didn’t show.”
“I was … busy.”
“But you would have looked so—”
“I’m sorry,” Aria said. “I’ll call you, okay. How about that?”
Lidia frowned and then turned to see Grant sitting there, perfectly happy to be silent.
“Oh, are you…”
“No,” Aria said.
“Yes,” Grant said.
