“Yeah.”

“Are you retaining this information?”

“Not really.”

“I don’t give a shit what you did in the past. You are good. Okay?”

I squeeze the bag of pretzels so hard it pops open, startling me. “Thank you.”

“Of course. Unless you decide not to be mine, and then you’re not sweet after all. You’re evil.”

I smile at him. “I thought you didn’t date.”

“Maybe I just never found the right guy.”

“You’re unexpectedly sappy,” I decide before leaning in and kissing his cheek, which seems to be the only place not bruised or cut.

“Maybe,” Kade says as he takes the bag of pretzels I’ve been mutilating. “Weird… look at all this pretzel dust.” He reaches in and sprinkles some on my hand.

“Whoops… I was… holding the bag a bit too tightly.”

“Didn’t notice.”

“I think you need your ass kicked. You ever playedMario Kart?”

“Does it look like I have?”

“You’re going to regret everything you’ve said to me,” I determine.

“I doubt it,” he says as he tries to sprinkle more pretzel dust onto my hand.

“I don’t want this! I wanted a full pretzel!” I protest as I set up the Switch.

“I think there’s an eighth of one in here,” he says as he fishes a pretzel piece out and hands it over to me.

“Thank you. I greatly appreciate this.” I put it into my mouth and smile at him.

“It’s the sacrifices I must make.”

Kade wraps an arm around me and waves at my Switch. “So enlighten me. How must I be tortured this time?”

“By throwing bananas at me.”

“I can throw my banana at you.”

“Not until you’re better. I don’t want to hear you cry about how I shot you again.”

“I didn’t even get a Band-Aid.”

“I don’t have any Band-Aids. You won’t let me leave! Here,” I say as I hand him a bag of candy. “Hold that against the wound. That’ll cure it.”

“Will it?” he asks.

“Yes. Now let me show you how to throw bananas.”

“I know all about bananas.”

“Then you’ll be a natural,” I say as I tuck myself against him.
