A rich giggle rolled off her tongue as the two sat at her kitchen table. He was recounting the tales of his life, and she was really quite amused.
"And so I'm standing there, a cantaloupe in one arm, and a chocolate bar in the other, and the old lady is just looking at me like I had three heads. Needless to say, I think the lady may believe she caught a rather... Unsightly fetish of mine."
"I can't imagine what kind of fetish involves cantaloupe and chocolate bars..." She shrugged her shoulders, another laugh escaping her mouth. And he actually felt honored. He was the one who had caused her sheer enjoyment, but then again, it was the least he could do with the chili dogs she had made him.
She had eaten only a max of two, and he polished the rest off, though now, he was covered in chili, and he knew for a fact he had to take a shower.
"Beats me."
After the cheerful laughing had died down, there was a comfortable silence, where they just sat in each other's company. It honestly felt like the world needed nothing more. They were perfectly content just existing in each other's presence.
And it lasted a while. Or at least until she reached a hand over and touched his cheek, giving him a ghosted smile.
"You are COVERED in chili."
_._._._._._._
"Well... I'm sorry, I don't have any manly shampoos."
"Oh great... Now I'm gonna smell like strawberries!" He feigned exasperation, dropping himself down to his knees and shouting to the heavens.
"Oh shush... You're gonna wake up my neighbors. Just go rinse off."
"Okay, alright. You got me this time." He began walking into her bathroom, only to stop, and hand her his jacket. "I entrust this to you. And I swear, if I find so much as one scratch... You die." He comically lowered his voice, though the amusing smile he wore proved he was joking.
"Oh, fuck you."
"We already went over this." And with that, he closed the door in her face.
But she still stood there for a prolonged amount of time, eventually holding the jacket up and staring at it. "Hmmm..." An idea was at work in her mind. And though she might not be able to pull it off... She was willing to try.
_._._._._._._
He walked into her room, drying himself off with one of her lush, soft towels. "Hey, how do I- why are you..."
