most of your time is usually spent at barnes and noble, especially as a girl who loves to read.

as a booktok girl as others would say, i guess?

doesn’t really matter, honestly.

point is, you like to read, and you’re not exactly one to finish books before going back to get more — that’s something that your best friend has argued with you about countless times.

and of course, that’s what you’re doing today.

you just don’t expect to see a biker. and not just any biker — your favorite from tik tok.

mousa, of course.

he’s never revealed his face before, but your friend can tell from all of the tik toks you’ve showed her — when you were literally geeking out because you’ve had the biggest crush on him since discovering him — that it’s him.

difference is that he doesn’t have his helmet on — this is his face.

she nudges you with raised eyebrows, but you pay no attention to it — you’re too busy checking out the books you’ve picked out.

you don’t pay attention, even when you feel his eyes on you — you don’t know it’s him, but you can still feel someone’s eyes on you.

and honestly, it’s not like she straight up points him out.

and mousa has felt and looked lost from the moment he walked in — it’s not like he’s ever really been in a bookstore, let alone for as long as he has now — but now, he’s noticed you.

and he can’t help but admire you a little because you’re very pretty — you’ve never thought this about yourself, though, so you don’t believe that it’s you who’s being looked at right now.

it’s kinda odd, though, because of one little thing.

you being an eternal sunshiney type of girl — sweet, but reserved, with loads of issues, which is always unexpected because of your character — is just proof that you’re the exact opposite of his type.

and he can tell.

but, he doesn’t really care. not when you’re so pretty.

and your friend has been the first notice all of that, which is why she nudges you one more time.

mainly because she knows you’d freak over this — over your favorite biker tiktoker checking you out.
