Mental Dialoge of Late

God, Nick is so fine. Where should I eat lunch today? Nick seems so straight-acting, but he's so goddamned nice to me. I could try Taco Express, I've wanted to stop by there since they opened last month. I haven't had any Mexican food for a while, either. I should just go up to Nick and confess my adoration. I hear Taco Express has really great burritos with cilantro and guacamole. Then again, I might freak him out and I wouldn't want to do that because we're working on this project together. Did I remember my homework today? If I go home to check, I'll be late to class and won't get to sit next to Nick. Maybe I can grab something to eat while I'm at home and save some money. God, Nick is so fine.
