I cut another piece and put it in my mouth quickly. “You did? I’m impressed.” And I am. I can’t believe a guy actually can cook this heavenly. I guess I’m naïve but I thought only girls could cook like this. Okay, I know there are male chefs out there in the world but a country guy that is sexier than hell?

He laughs. How can a laugh sound so sexy? “Well, don’t be. Ma taught me how to cook when I was little and I guess it just stuck with me.” He takes a bite as I sip my coffee. “I was always fascinated by it, watched her cook every meal and then when she started really teaching me, I ended up whipping up all kinds of stuff. It relaxes me, I guess.”

“Well, I think it’s pretty cool. Any woman would love to be with a guy that can cook like this.” I smile and take another bite, closing my eyes each time the deliciousness sparks my taste buds. I open my eyes to see his facial expression has changed from smiling to frowning. I must have touched a nerve with something I’ve said. “So, is your mom still around? We haven’t gotten to really talk much since we met.”

He looks up, his breathtaking smile showing again and I feel a bit relieved. “No, but I hear from her and Pa all the time. While they are still young enough to enjoy life, they decided to go out and see the world,” he chuckles. “They are actually being those crazy people you read about traveling the world in a big ole RV.” I laugh, imagining doing that. “But they love it. That’s why I came home.”

I set my fork down, interested in his story, and place my elbow on the table, my chin resting in my hand. “Really?”

“I can’t believe your pa actually went along with that idea.” Memphis’ voice startles me and when I turn my head and sit back up, I see him staring at me, a weird look on his face. Is that jealousy? Nah, couldn’t be. Could it?

“Oh, hey, Memphis! Sorry, if we woke you. I just thought I’d be neighborly and bring y’all some of my baked goodies and some coffee. After everything that happened I didn’t know if y’all really wanted to cook.” Colby rises from his seat and meets Memphis halfway, reaching out his hand to him. Memphis tears his eyes away from mine and shakes his hand. “I even brought a casserole I cooked up after I left here. Oh! I need to put that in the fridge.” Colby starts to walk back to the table but I stand and reach into the bag and get the dish out.

“I’ll put it in there for you. Sit and relax.” I walk over as he sits back down and watch Memphis from the corner of my eye taking the chair on the other side of mine.

“Thanks,” Colby says as he returns to his seat.

“So, go on with tellin’ about your parents.
