    From the instant he stepped through the front door of his house, Nick Garrett smelled a rat. Figuratively anyway. Actually, it was a collection of mouthwatering aromas emanating from the kitchen that flooded his nostrils. Ah, but there indeed was the rub. Of the two people who lived in this house, he was the only one who ever did any cooking. In fact, he was the only one who even knew how to cook! So if he wasn’t cooking, then who the hell was? Setting down his back pack and sliding off his jacket, the twenty-two year old graduate student at UCLA casually followed the delectable tangs through the house toward the kitchen. What the hell is she up to now? Nick wondered. Passing through the small dining room, Nick found the antique dining table pristinely set for two; complete with fine China dishes, pure silver flatware, soft cloth napkins and immaculate crystal glasses. There were even candles mounted in the decorative candlesticks in the center of the table. Oh boy, Nick thought. She must really be in deep shit this time . Upon reaching the archway that led into the quaint kitchen, Nick paused and thoughtfully surveyed the scene.

How was your day?” Donning an adorable yet incredibly sexy royal blue and white checkered mini sun dress that hung loose and comfy over her firm, slender body with a matching pair of white sandals on her feet, Tina looked absolutely radiant this evening. As she stood just barely 5’2”, Tina had to rise up on her tiptoes and stretch her toned calves to the limit in order for her lips to reach Nick’s cheek that was approximately a foot above her at 6’2” and plant a kiss on it. “Good,” Nick managed to utter; all the while fighting back the innumerable questions just aching to come out. “Dinner’s just about ready,” Tina continued nonchalantly; as if she said it every night. “So ah,” Nick began casually. “What’s the occasion?” “What do you mean?” Tina asked almost absentmindedly as she began chopping the vegetables she’d just pulled ...
