He tossed it onto the desk and turned toward the bed.

Halfway there, he paused, then doubled back.

He picked it up, tore open the wrapper, hesitated for a fraction of a second, and took a bite.

The heavy taste of artificial flavoring, sugar, and butter instantly coated his tongue. It only took him three or four bites to finish the whole thing.

"Good morning, Ms. Atherton!" Dylan greeted her with a bright, eager smile.
