mouth coverer

Walking to institute one day with my roommate Stephanie there was a guy walking towards us talking on the phone. The world is very technology oriented, so i see this A LOT. This guy looked normal and he was walking normal. The entire time he was talking on his cellphone he had his hand covering his mouth. He wasn't walking with anyone and there really wasn't anyone around, so i assume the reason he was covering his mouth wasn't because he didnt want to be overheard. i'm big on teeth, and i love clean white teeth so i thought that maybe he didn't brush his teeth that morning, and he was embarrassed by his gross teeth. he could have an imbalance of vitamins, and his teeth might be permanently yellow so whenever he talks he covers his mouth with his hand. he could be a germaphobe and is very afraid of something coming into his mouth; to prevent this from happening he always covers his mouth no matter what.

Since I love clean teeth, and its usually always the first thing i notice about other people i'm going to assume that he didn't brush his teeth that morning, and is embarrassed by his horrible hygiene. i'm going to call him Brian for my little story :)

Feeling flustered after he had woken up late that morning he was hurrying to get ready on time. Brian had the option to either eat breakfast, or brush his teeth, but he didn't have time to do both if he was going to make it on time to take a test for his biology lab. His teacher is a stickler about arriving on time; if you are late then you can't take the test. Brian was stressing about the test anyways, so he was mad at himself for waking up late. He is a normal guy who thinks mostly about food and girls, so of course he chose to eat breakfast instead.
After eating his bowl of cheerios he rushed off to class. While he was working with his lab partner after the test was finished, he remembered he hadn't brushed his teeth. Brian only remembered this after his partner told him his breathe smelled horrible. He couldn't go home until after three, so he had to go the whole day with stinky breath. He was very self conscious about it, and decided to cover his mouth so that no one would know.
After three people mentioned his horrible breath Brian was feeling pretty bad about life. Especially since one of them was a pretty girl he had been flirting with and trying to work up enough courage to ask her out. After today he figured he had no chance with her. He was on the phone with her when he walked out of institute, unconsciously covering his mouth even though he was talking on the phone and not to her. He decided that no matter how late he would be, he wasn't ever going to leave his apartment with out brushing his teeth ever again.
