July, Saturday 17th

It was late afternoon when Pete stood in the kitchen of the apartment, cooking dinner for Addison and him. The sound of the front door opening and closing was heard before he could hear Addison softly talking while she walked into the living room. Pete glanced at her as she walked past the kitchen and raised an eyebrow. She placed her things down in the living room before she skipped happily into the kitchen.

"Who are you talking to?" He didn't look at her as he stirred the sauce.

"Toggie." She grinned at his back.

"Your imaginary new boyfriend?"

"No, my new kitten."

"Your what?" Pete turned to look at her.

"My kitten." Addison grinned and held the ball of fluff in her arms that was her kitten.

"You bought a kitten?" His eyes widened slightly.

"Well, I didn't buy her."

"You stole a poor little kitten?"

"I didn't steal her. She was given to me."

"By who?"

"My brother."

Pete nodded and looked down at the kitten in her hands.

"She's cute isn't she?"

"Yeah..." He gave a smile. Addison cooed at the kitten and tickled her ears. "She's small."

"She's only a baby."

"I'm scared if you let her down I'll squash her."

"You won't squash her." Addison smiled softly at Pete.

"I hope so."

"You won't."

"Okay." He nodded and looked back down at the fluffy ball in Addison's hands. Addison smiled and cuddled her kitten close. "Have you got cat food for her?"

"Yep." She nodded. "Everything's in my car."

"Okay, good." He nodded as well.

"Could you get it for me?"

"Sure." Pete turned to the food and took it off the stove.

"Thanks." Addison smiled before she turned and carried Toggie into the living room. Pete grabbed her car keys before he got Toggie's food. Addison knelt down on the living room floor and began to play with her kitten. Toggie slowly walked around the floor and started to explore her new home curiously.

"I think she likes it." Addison grinned happily. Toggie looked up at her and meowed quietly. "You do, don't you." Addison tickled Toggie's chin. Toggie moved closer to her hand and started to purr when a key turned in the lock and Pete walked back into the apartment. "Hey, she likes it here." Addison called to her husband.

"She does?" He smiled softly.

"She does."

Pete looked at them and carried the food into the kitchen. Addison smiled and gave Toggie a mouse to play with before she walked into the kitchen. "She hungry?" Pete looked at her.

"Probably." Addison nodded. "I know I am."

"I made pasta." He smiled.

"Ooo, yummy."

Pete gave a smile and got two plates from the cupboard. Pete gave a smile and got two plates from the cupboard.

"What are we having with the pasta?"

"Noodles."

"Noodles and pasta?" she asked as she got glasses from the cupboard.

"Yeah, pasta."

"No noodles?"

"Of course noodles." Pete glanced at her.

"So which are we having?" She looked at him confused.

"Sauce with noodles, Addison."

"Then you could have just said that."

"You could have just looked at the stove in front of you." He rolled his eyes and placed the plates and pasta on the table.

"I'm getting drinks." She waved the glasses at him.

"Yeah." He nodded and opened a drawer to get cutlery.

"What do you want to drink?"

"Just water."

"I bought wine."

"Red or white?"

"One of each." She smiled.

"Okay then." He gave a smile. "I don't mind which."

"Okay." Addison nodded before she poured them each a drink.

"You planning on getting yourself drunk?" Pete sat down and pulled his plate closer.

"No, you?" She looked at him and sat down as well.

"We'll see." He joked. Addison rolled her eyes before she began to eat. Pete smiled and did the same.

"This is good." she commented after a while.

"I'm glad."

Addison smiled and continued to eat.

"You know you got yourself an amazing cook." Pete smirked. "Only one of my many qualities you get to enjoy."

"I know." She grinned. "I get free, amazing food whenever I want."

"Well, maybe not whenever."

"Most of the time."

"Yeah." He smiled. Addison smiled as well and sipped on her wine. "The wine is good." Pete commented. "Good choice."

"It's a speciality of mine." She grinned.

"I know." Pete smiled at her.

"You provide the food, I'll provide the wine."

"That's how it's supposed to work." He looked down at his food and continued to eat.

"I'm glad." Addison smiled and continued to eat as well.

"How was your day?" Pete asked after a while.

"It was good. Yours?"

"Not too bad." He nodded.

"That's good." Addison smiled.

"I'll probably go out with a couple of friends this weekend."

"Oh, okay, sure." She nodded. "Where are you going?"

"I don't know, some club. It's David's birthday." he explained.

"Which one is David?"

"Tall, blonde, blue eyes. He goes to med school."

"Oh, the really handsome one?"

"You think he's handsome?" Pete looked at her.

"Yes, don't you?" She looked back at him.

"I don't know." He shrugged.

"I think he is." Addison watched Pete's face carefully. There was a hint of jealousy visible in his eyes as he looked at her before he glanced down and continued to eat. "Does he have a girlfriend?"

"I don't think so." He shook his head slightly. "Why?"

"Might have to look him up after we split."

"You can just come around Saturday." Pete didn't look at her as he got up and carried his plate to the sink.

"Maybe he's not comfortable dating a married woman."

"You can just tell him the truth."

"Would you mind if I did?"

"It's your choice." Pete didn't look at her as he put the dishes into the dishwasher. Addison nodded before she leaned back and just watched him. He didn't say anything as he closed the dish washer and got his glass of wine from the table before he downed it at once.

"Are you okay?" she asked carefully.

"I'm fine." He put the glass on the counter before he walked out of the kitchen. Addison gave a soft sigh before she finished her wine. Pete made his way into the bedroom where he got fresh clothes before he walked into the bathroom to shower. Addison walked into the living room and looked down at her kitten who had curled up in the chair. She had her eyes closed as she lay there comfortably.

"It must be so easy being a kitten."

She gave another sigh before she sat down and watched Toggie. She could hear the shower running but she just stayed sat on the couch.

Five minutes later Pete stepped out of the hot shower and dried himself off before put on a fresh pair of boxers and walked back into the bedroom. Addison stood up from the couch before she made her way into the bedroom as well. He glanced up at her as she walked in but didn't say anything.

"What's wrong?"

"What makes you think there's something wrong?"

"Because you're acting differently."

Pete just shrugged and pulled on one of his shirts.

"It's about David, isn't it?" She crossed her arms.

"I don't care about David or whatever."

"But you do." Addison watched him before she walked further into the room.

"No, I don't." Pete turned and looked at her.

"Really? I don't believe that."

"Well, then don't."

"What is your problem?"

"I don't have a problem."

"You do." She nodded. "You have a problem with me and other guys."

Pete tensed as he looked at her. "If you want another guy, go on, I don't want to be the one to stop you."

"I'm glad."

"About what?"

"That you'll let me go and have another guy. Maybe I'll go screw one."

Pete nodded slowly as he looked at her. "If that's what you want."

"Maybe I'll go and call David."

"What do you want me to do, Addison?"

"You know what, Pete, just forget it."

"You are the one telling me you want to screw other guys! You got no fucking right to be pissed at me."

"Forget it, Pete!"

"Fine!"

"Good!" Addison turned around and slammed the bedroom door shut behind her.

"What the hell is wrong with this woman?" Pete mumbled as she left.
