Asshole's POV

     It was passed closing and I was sweeping the floor of the restaurant. My mind was flooded by Colonel Sanders and only him. Suddenly, the bell above the door rang.
     "Sorry but we're clo-" I started, but when I looked it was the man himself; Dadd- I mean Colonel Sanders.
     "I came to apologize and maybe explain myself for my actions on our first meeting." he drawled. I set down the broom and offered him a seat across from me.
     "You see," he started, "I was just a boy when KFC started. My grandma, Granny Chicken, opened it with all of her original recipes. It was an instant success. I think by coming over here when you opened, I thought I was preserving her memory, but instead, I disgraced her." He looked down in shame, a single tear running down his soft, flawless, smooth, cheek. Tentatively, I reached over and wiped it away. He looked up at me surprised. I jumped back, thinking I did something wrong.
     "I-I-I-I'm sorry, Colonel, I just thought-" My apology was cut short by soft, chicken flavoured lips on mine. OH MY PINE, COLONEL SANDERS WAS KISSING ME!!
     He pulled away with a light blush across his cheeks.
     "It's okay. Thank you. I have a question for you, Asshole."
     "Anything."
     He pulled out a ring, on top was a diamond encrusted chicken wing. Before he could ask the question, I shouted, "YES!", and jumped into his open arms.
