He ducked his head a bit, but he was still grinning when he glanced up at her. "Well, I've been holding out just so I could surprise you, maybe." Of course, he still wasn't that great at cooking, he'd just figured out how to roast a chicken and have it come out all right.

And that really meant a lot, as he got to work on his own sandwich, smiling, pleased. "I'm glad you think so. It took a couple of burned chickens over the past few months before I figured out just how to do it right every time."
