"This is the best cake I have ever eaten." Hunter gestured to his plate.

"You've out done yourself, darling."

"Best breakfast ever." Hunter laughed.

"Thank you." I blushed as I cleaned up the kitchen.

"Have you packed your bags?" My mom asked.

"Yip."

"Thank you for having me here, Mel. It was truly fantastic."

"Anytime Hunter. You must come visit again."

"Definitely."

"Not." I mumbled.

"Darling, I wouldn't be surprised if the next time he comes that he's your boyfriend."

Hunter laughed and I turned around, "Jokes aside -"

"I wasn't joking." My mom interrupted.

"Mom... I was saying, we really need to leave if we want to arrive before dark."

"Of course. Take the cake with you. I'll clean up the rest, you go get your bags."

"Your mom likes me." Hunter nudged me as we got to the top of the stairs.

"She also liked Jake." I smirked and Hunter growled.

"Bye mom! I love you lots!" I called once I was in the car.

"Bye darling. Lovely meeting you Hunter! Drive safely!"

"Sweetheart? Wake up. We're home." Hunter gently shook my shoulder.

"I slept through the entire ride?"

"Yip. You even spoke in your sleep." Hunter smiled.

"What did I say?"

"Oh nothing much." He waved it off but I could tell by the gleam in his eyes that he was lying.

"Hunter..."

He sighed, "You asked me to kiss you."

"You're lying."

"I promise, sweetheart."

"Oh gosh, I'm so sorry Hunt."

He shrugged, "Would have done it if you weren't unconscious.

I laughed, "Come on, use those muscles to get our bags."

Hunter smirked but said nothing.

When we unlocked the door there was a pristine white envelope. It was an invitation to my dad's wedding, which was after our first semester ended.

"You alright, sweetheart?" Hunter sounded concerned.

"Hmm?"

"You alright?"

"Been better. You want some cake for an earlier supper?" I tried avoiding the topic and Hunter didn't press me to continue.

"How about we go out?"

"I don't think I'm up for it. I just want to call it an early night."
