The Alpha's Pen Pal
There were only three profiteroles on the plate, so we each ate one, and then began arguing over who should get the third one.
“You should take it,” Haven said, pushing the plate towards me.
“I want you to have it,” I told her, pushing it back.
“Seriously, Wes, just eat it.”
“Rock paper scissors?” I asked.
She blew out air through her nose. “Fine. I win, you eat it. You win, I eat it.”
“Deal,” I said, smiling.
We lifted our right hands above the table and played one round, and we both picked paper. I made a face at her, and we played again, and both picked rock. She laughed, and we did a third round, only to both get scissors.
