Guardian Angel
“One evening they stayed in and watched a movie, though he couldn’t have told anyone the first thing about it; he’d been too intent on watching her, on feeling the brush of her legs against him every time she shifted on the sofa. Sometimes it was simply a matter of him offering her a ride to the home center, the book store (her favorite), or the farmer’s market. It didn’t matter – not to her and not to him. The plain fact was that they enjoyed each other’s company no matter what they were doi...ng.
He loved that she didn’t seem to want anything from him besides his company. When he did bring her something, some small little token, she reacted as if Christmas came early. She didn’t expect conversation, though in truth she was probably the only person he’d ever met who tended to talk less than him. That was okay; the silence between them was a comfortable one.
There were no fancy dinners, although they did often share a simple meal or a snack together. It might not seem like much to some, but Kane recognized it as significant. Sometimes he would bring something; a few times she had surprised him by preparing something in the shelter kitchen after everyone else had gone. She made no secret of the fact that she was not a very good cook. Kane teased her about that, since her family owned one of the most successful chains of restaurants in the U.S., but in all honesty, he found her creations more than passable. Of course, in his opinion everything tasted better when Rebecca had a hand in preparing it.MoreLess
