One step closer to knowing what I thought he was was real. An important one.

“Fair enough,” I muttered, smiling at my feet and turning to my bag.

He got on the phone and I gathered my stuff as I listened to him ordering me blueberry pancakes which sounded really good. Then again, I was super hungry so pretty much anything would sound really good.

And, seeing as he was currently thinking with his dick, he’d given her what she wanted.

Thinking on it, after she told him she wanted to have breakfast with her husband, he would have given it to her. But after spending her vacation day in Vegas with her, he would have walked to Moab at her side if she’d asked.
