“Doyou know how to make lasagna?” I ask.
“Yeah. It’s not hard.”
“Think we could make some this week?”
She grins. “You mean do I thinkIcan make some this week?”
“I’ll help.”
“I think I’d rather you not.”
Jess: Where are you?
Me: Grocery store. Need anything?
Jess: The pizzas you took out of my freezer.
Me: YOU KNOW ABOUT THAT?
Jess: It’s hard not to know when you had ten because there was a sale and you go to get one and there’s two.
Me: Oh.
I look up at Sara.“We need to grab Jess some pizzas.”
She points in the cart.
Me: Well, lucky you, we already have pizzas in the cart for you.
Jess: Tell Sara thanks.
Me: I will.
“I needto get a tie for the gala,” I say.
“That’s out of left field.”
“Which dress do you think you’ll wear? I think I’m supposed to match you.”
She thinks about it. “I dropped your mom’s dress off at the cleaner’s today before I came to the shop. So I could wear that one or the silver one I brought. What do you think?”
“I think you should try the silver one on for me tonight and then I’ll see.” I wiggle my brows. “Then we’ll go off which one results in the best sex.”
“If that’s the case, I’ll wear what I have on because I’m not sure you can beat today.”
Challenge accepted.
We add water and Coke to the cart. Sara makes sure to grab the lasagna noodles and jarred sauce. She sends me to grab a package of hamburger. I avert my eyes from the chicken and get in and out of that department as fast as possible.
Those poor little chickies.
“What do you like for breakfast?” Sara asks as I return with the meat. “Are you a cereal guy? Muffin guy? Pancakes guy?”
“I usually don’t eat too early. I have to caffeinate before I can eat and that takes at least three cups of coffee to do it properly. What about you?”
“My favorite are blueberry muffins. But I grabbed some in the bakery. I just wanted to make sure we didn’t miss getting what you need.”
I smack her ass. “You got what I need.”
