Hours later, we were both at Chipotle, getting burritos, and I was trying not to drool.

No, not at the sexy beast at my side.

Mig was gorgeous, but he wasn’t what had my mouth watering at that moment in time.

No, what had me salivating was the perfect burrito being built for me.

I growled low in my throat when the worker put the first scoop of chicken onto my plate.

“I want double chicken,” I said before he could move on to the next item.

He gave me a weird look, and I wanted to laugh.

See, they didn’t like it when you fucked with your scoops at Chipotle. They’d try to stiff you scoops if you ordered double chicken up front.

They couldn’t give you a smaller scoop, because you already knew what a ‘normal’ scoop was for them.

So they had to give you two scoops of the chicken, at the perfect amounts that one should get when they asked for a second scoop.

Something I explained to Mig, twenty minutes later, as we were finishing up our meal.

I popped a chip into my mouth, and finally answered the question he’d asked me earlier when we’d sat down.

I’d been too hungry to answer, and he’d thought the entire thing was hilarious.

“Yes, I come here a lot. So I know exactly how to order to get the maximum burrito perfection,” I explained.

He nodded sagely.

“I could tell,” he smiled, taking a sip of his sweet tea.

The large cup looked small in his hand, and my eyes traveled up said hand to the tattoos on his forearm.

“What does that one mean?” I asked, pointing to the band that circled his lower forearm.

He shrugged. “It was spur of the moment. I got it on a whim. All it means is ‘focus.’”

I got that he didn’t want to speak about it, so I changed the subject.

“That was nice of Alison to volunteer,” I said, looking at Mig across the table.

“Yeah, it was. I’m glad, too. I don’t want to spend any more time with her than I have to. I’ve come to a decision, though. I’ll just move in with you, and Jennifer can stay at her own place,” he said. “If she needs me other than when I bring her grocery runs, she can call me…or you.”

I had a feeling that was as good as it was going to get, so I grabbed onto it with both hands.

“That sounds good,” I conceded. “But if it gets to be too bad, you’re not going to find me helping her at all.”

He nodded, a concerned look on his face. “Hopefully it won’t be too bad.”
