Janie looked over to the other couple, the one with the guy holding the pads.

"Another Daddy carrying pads and tampons!" she said, sounding so excited.

"Elsie," the man said. "You don't know if they are in a dynamic like ours."

Mac put his arm around her. "Do you want the liquid kind? Orange flavoring?"

Her eyes went wide as she stared at him. How did he know?

"Pinky. I've paid attention to you. I know you don't like taking pills. And whenever you are at the club, you always go towards the orange juice, not the apple or peach juice," he said.

Janie didn't think that he had really been paying attention to her. How much did he know about her?

"Now, do you need any?" he asked.

She nodded her head.

"Do you want two? Both in orange flavoring?"

"Yes, please," she whispered, still in shock that he knew that.

Mac grabbed two and held it in his hands.

"Do you need any more than two? I know sometimes they don't always have them in stock," he said.

She shook her head. "I don't go through it fast enough. This should last me a while." Or so she thought. She honestly didn't know how long it took her to go through one bottle.

"I'm going to grab one for myself. Just in case you come over to my house and need some pain medicine," he said. "I don't have any and I want to be prepared."

Janie wanted to tell him that she wasn't going to go over to his house any time soon. That he didn't need to buy any, but she didn't think he would listen to her. He liked to do his own thing sometimes.

Well, most of the time.

"Do you need anything else in the store?" he asked. She shook her head. She had grabbed everything she needed orwanted right now. Janie may need to go to the store later for something. She hadn't thought that far ahead.

They made their way towards the front of the store to pay for everything. Janie needed to remember that she shouldn't get attached to him. He kept saying he wanted both of them, but she was skeptical. Men didn't want women who already had a kid. Janie put all the candy on the belt as Mac did. The cashier started to scan them, and Janie dug her wallet out of her pocket.

"I've got this," Mac said.

She shook her head. "This is my stuff. I've got it."

"Pinky. When you're with me, I pay for everything. When you're with me, I open the door for you." She opened her mouth, but he gave her a look and she shut her mouth.

"That is so cute," the cashier said. "Definitely keep the man. He's a keeper."

Janie opened her mouth, ready to tell her that they weren't together.

"Thank you so much," Mac said as he paid for everything. He grabbed the two bags and they both started to walk out of the supermarket.

"Are you craving anything to eat?" Mac asked.

"Burgers," she whispered. "I could eat a good burger."

He smiled as he put the two grocery bags in the car.

"I know just the place," he said. He walked around to her side of the door and opened it. "I'm still thinking about getting you a booster seat," he said.

"No, I don't need one. I'm twenty-eight years old," she replied.
