“What are you doing?” I asked, laughing as she grabbed hold of my hand and attempted to pull me out of my seat. We stood, inches from one another, her hands still on mine.

“I’m about to give you the best experience of your life,” she said dramatically.

I followed her to the door, chuckling.

Every moment I spend with you is pretty damn good.

“So?” she demanded, staring at me impatiently.

I nodded slowly. “I admit, this is pretty damn good.”

I placed another mouthful of cheesecake into my mouth. It was fucking good, but honestly, seeing how happy it made Mia that I was enjoying it, I would’ve lied my ass off even if I hated it.

“Yes!” she cheered, her head dancing from side to side.

“How did you find this place, anyway?” I asked, licking the back of my fork.

“My parents used to bring me here for special occasions. I never forgot this place, and never found cheesecake anywhere near as good. Trust me, I’ve looked.” She smiled and leaned over to me. “I have a bit of a thing for cheesecake,” she whispered.

“I noticed,” I chuckled. I glanced at her empty plate, which had been literally scraped clean. I loaded up my final mouthful onto my fork. “Here,” I said, placing the spoon near her mouth.

She giggled and opened, allowing me to feed her my last bite.

I watched as her lips hit the fork, sliding the gooey dessert into her mouth. She closed her eyes and smiled, a tiny dab of cheesecake sticking to the corner of her mouth. She was so fucking cute.

“You’re so sweet, Coop,” she giggled.

“What can I say?” I said as I shrugged off my embarrassment. “Here,” I said. I leaned over and wiped the corner of her mouth. “You had a bit there…” I stopped as she caught my wrist and placed my finger in her mouth, gently sucking

off the remnants of cake. I swallowed hard, my throat drier than a desert as all the blood in my body rushed to my dick. She let go of my finger and smiled at me.

“Thanks,” she whispered.

We left the diner and started the walk back home. It wasn’t far—maybe half a mile—but the night had begun to cool. Mia shivered next to me.

“I told you to grab a jacket,” I teased, eyeing her short sleeves. Goosebumps covered her arms as she rubbed her hands along them.

“I wasn’t cold then. How was I supposed to know it was going to drop twenty degrees?” she grumbled.

Shaking my head, I took off my jacket and placed it around her shoulders. “There you go.”

“No, you’ll catch a cold,” she protested, trying to hand it back to me. I shook my head. She smiled shyly, snuggling into the warmth of the jacket.

“I’ll be fine. I’m a guy. We’re tough,” I said, raising my eyebrows.

“Oh yeah?” she chuckled, slipping her arms into the sleeves of my jacket. “I remember a certain boy crying because we locked him out of the house,” she sniggered.

“It was three in the morning and I was in my underpants,” I protested, laughing. “I think I handled that situation pretty well, considering.”

“You went next door and told on me,” she cried, laughing. She wiped her eyes.

“You deserved it,” I shot back. “I hope you got punished, really bad.”

“I got grounded for a week and lost my allowance,” she reminded me, smirking.

“Good. Payback is a bitch.” I winked at her. “And I’m sorry, but so were you and my sister.”

Mia dissolved into a fit of giggles. I chuckled too, loving the way I felt when she was with me. It was just cheesecake and a walk, but it may as well have been the most romantic, well-planned date of all time.
