Devon took a hefty gulp, then pressed his mouth to Toned\u2019s. Vaughn saw liquid dribble from one corner as the gulp passed from mouth to mouth. His stomach rolled. That couldn\u2019t be hygienic.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

He couldn\u2019t really say much about Jonah\u2019s clothes, except that they were so tight they rendered themselves unnecessary. But he did look good.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

\u201cDo you have any idea how many calories are in lasagna?\u201d <\/p>\n

Calories. Give me strength<\/em>. Vaughn lifted the piece he\u2019d cut off and chewed it deliberately, eyes locked on Jonah\u2019s. He swallowed. \u201cI can\u2019t say I do, no.\u201d \\<\/p>\n

Jonah also swallowed, even though he hadn\u2019t actually been eating. \u201cCheese. Pasta. Beef. The unholy trifecta of dairy, wheat, and red meat; it\u2019s the worst thing you could possibly eat.\u201d Jonah\u2019s fork stabbed into his salad again. \u201cI don\u2019t eat that kind of stuff.\u201d <\/p>\n

\u201cYou\u2019re missing out.\u201d Vaughn forked an especially cheesy piece into his mouth. Mmm. Bliss. He closed his eyes briefly, it was that good. Swallowed.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Flirting<\/em>? Good God. Calorie-conscious and<\/em> delusional. Vaughn knew how to pick them. He set the spoon down. \u201cI\u2019m not flirting with you.\u201d <\/p>\n

\u201cReally.\u201d Jonah\u2019s voice dripped with disbelief. \u201cYou don\u2019t call putting food in my mouth flirting?\u201d <\/p>\n

\u201cNo, actually. I share food with my eating companions regularly.\u201d Vaughn mentally replayed their conversation. \u201cWhat part of the last twenty minutes was flirtatious?\u201d <\/p>\n

Jonah\u2019s jaw dropped. \u201cAre you kidding me? Just how oblivious are you?\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
