Dinner at home - locked to Lou

[anddowntothesea]

It's one of his most closely guarded secrets - the fact that he can actually cook. He bakes, too. His Ma was determined that she wasn't going to raise any sons who were a burden on wives. As it turned out, wives had been purely theoretical, but Gabriel Monroe is a man that can look after himself.

When the doorbell rings, he opens the door in jeans and plaid rolled up to his elbows. He smiles.

"I was halfway expecting you to cancel."

That was fair enough, Louise had considered finding an excuse thrice. "I've had men cook for me since I was very small, I think I can survive this dinner as well."
Was this really her first sentence? "Hello, Gabe. It's nice of you to have me."
