My phone buzzed on the counter as I briefly paused in putting the groceries away with Norman. He was able to figure out the order in which everything goes by all the labels my mom made, so I didn't worry about things being put in the wrong place.

Looking at the message, I noticed it was to the family group chat we made when B/n was still in high school, which we still used.

Dad: I'm going to be home really late tonight. Trouble at the office.

Mom: I'm taking extra hours so I can make more money. Can you make dinner yourself tonight Y/n?

💬

Me: Yeah, sure! I just went grocery shopping and got everything we needed!

💬

Me: I'm also making really good lasagna tonight, so if you two still want dinner when you get home, it'll be in the fridge! :)

💬

Mom: That's sweet! Thank you, honey. <3

Dad: It'll be later in the night, so feel free to invite a friend over if you feel lonely.

Me: I will, thanks!

I close out the text messages and finish putting away groceries with Norman, I find myself glancing at him a few times.

His hair always looks messy, I wonder if he ever combs it.

Then again, some guys look terrible with neat hair.

So...

My thoughts trailed off as I kept my tight hold on a maple syrup bottle, still gazing over at Norman, who didn't know that I was staring at him.

He had just put away the Italian sausage and milk when he suddenly stops for a few seconds.

Norman turns his head to look at me, which I didn't expect him to do.

"Why are you staring at me?" he asked curiously.

"There's something on your face-" I lie to cover up my weird behaviour.

Norman touches his face and wipes at nothing, asking if he got whatever it was off.

"Ah, yeah..." I said, flickering my eyes away from him as I kept sorting out my side of groceries.
