I looked at him awaiting his answer but all he did was look at me while smiling not saying a word. I looked at him and smiled back "What?" I asked. finally responding he said "Nothing just looking at you, what i can't look at you?" he was either avoiding the question, wasn't paying attention, or was avoiding my question. "no it's not that but you didn't stop just because you wanted to look at me did you?
