Sweet Mischief’s Rollercoaster Romance

Jack watched Anya devour her food in the car, her cheeks puffed out with a half-eaten burger. She shot him a nervous glance and apologized, "Chad, I'm so sorry, it wasn't on purpose." Jack chuckled, "Take it easy, don't choke."

Mia just sighed, lost in her thoughts. It hit her why everyone was so surprised when her husband indulged her, and why she had unknowingly stepped on some of Andre's soft spots.

Jack slipped on the Ray-Bans Mia had given him and drove off.

"Yeah."

Anya relaxed a bit. After a moment, Jack added, "You're the second person."
