Hiding A Smile Novels & Stories

She said, making my eyes widen in surprise. “I do not.” I said, crossing my arms over my chest. She smirked. “You’re smiling, and it is a real smile.” I blinked, then frowned slightly as I playfully glared at her, refusing to allow her to see that I was smiling too much. “I am not.” “You are,” she insisted, pushing herself off the counter and walking closer. “It’s subtle, but it’s there.

Man, I didn’t even notice that I’m smiling. I try to stop my lips from smiling, “No, I’m not.” “Yes, you are.” My smiling then turn into laughing. “Is it bad to smile?” “No, but it looks like you have something in your mind that you would like to tell us?” I just shake my head to say no.
