Chapter 65

“Well, you’ve got eggs and some bacon that isn’t green yet,” Robby said with a laugh. “And…here’s an old shriveled tomato. That’ll do. Got anything spicy?”

“Uh, I got pickles.”

“Ha! Well, never tried my famous southwest omelet with pickles. Maybe I’ll create a culinary masterpiece.”

“Culinary? That’s a pretty fancy word for a cowboy from….wherever it is you’re from.”

The words piqued Will’s curiosity, which had been sidetracked by the morning’s activities. He began to remember he had things he wanted to know about Robby.

Will made coffee and poured what little juice he had in the house while Robby cooked. He had to admit this felt good. Two guys, half naked after a morning of love making, in ‘their’ kitchen getting ready to start the day. He sat smiling, rubbing the ring on his finger and watched as Robby finished up the omelet. It made him feel good.

They ate the first few bites in silence. The omelet was pretty good and Will was about to tell Robby so when the man spoke.
