I smirk. ##########

Risa said. “I’d still prefer meat with sauce.” “Trust me, you won’t need sauce.” Her eyes, her smile, and her everything was focused on Adrian. She took out her mobile and took a few selfies quickly. She then noticed that Adrian didn’t smile in those pictures. “Why didn’t you smile?” “I’m not a photo-person,” Adrian said with a straight face. “My smiling face feels fake in the pictures.” “Ah, I can teach you how to smile and look better in the pictures,” Risa said. “Just pronounce the first two letters in my name and stretch the ‘eee’ sound.”

With that, I let go of his shirt and stumbled back a step, my head spinning slightly. Alaric still hadn’t moved, hadn’t said a word, and it only fueled my frustration. “You’re impossible,” I muttered. “You cold, detached, impossible man.” Gripping the edge of the counter for support, I looked up at him again and frowned upon taking in the hard set to his mouth. “You never smile, you know that? Not once. It’s like you’ve got this permanent scowl etched into your face. It’s exhausting, honestly. Do you even know how to smile? Or did your mother scare that out of you too?”

Then a warm smile works up to his face, as he calmly apologizes. "I am, so so sorry for his immature driving. We're sorry." He flashes a cute grin at us, at least it was cute at first. Before it slowly turned fake, his eyes squinting slightly, with his lips. Oh gods! What is happening to them? It twitched and curved upwards in an uneasy manner. Like the smile would kill him. He couldn't even hold the grin for long. "He is terrible at making a fake smile." I thought to myself. "I'm Daniel by the way. Daniel smith."

“There it is.” “What?” “You smiled.” “I did not.” “You absolutely did.” “I just……..sighed.” “It looked suspiciously cheerful.” “It wasn’t.” “It’s gone now.” I smooth my expression into something appropriately unimpressed. “You imagined it.” “I rarely imagine things.” “That sounds exhausting.” “It has its moments.” Despite everything…The corner of my mouth threatens to lift again but I refuse to let it. “I don’t know why people find you intimidating.” “Is that so?” “They’re wrong.”

, Cosmos' voice interrupted. I don't know if it's a sarcastic voice or a polite one? His tone of voice screams sarcasm but his smiling face is showing a polite side of him. "Oh, yeah. I almost forgot.", I said and snapped my fingers. "As I was saying, thank you. The pleasure is mine. I'm sorry but I really need to go. See you, next project?", I said while staring at the guy with smile. Hell no. I will never have another project with this guy. He's really creepy. With that smile? Why didn't I noticed it earlier?

I don't have friends - I am not sure if that is something that I should be proud of. Well, it's not like I don't try to approach my classmates or try to interact. It’s just that I have a weird smile. No, it's not the type of smile that involves weird and rotten teeth - I have perfectly white and straight teeth. You see, my smile is fatal and dangerous. Just one look at these weapons and even the ferocious growl of a mountain lion would seem harmless. If this were a comic, I would call this attack: The Killer Smile.

"Hi, I'm so sorry to disturb you but may I ask if I can share this table with you?" Allan asked as he flashes one bright smile showing his perfect set of white teeth and cute dimples in his cheeks. His voice sounds so deep and masculine that he could easily still one's heart away. Partnered with his signature killer smile, anyone would find it hard to turn down his request.

Not blinking. Not saying a word.
