Just Take The Food

Lunch Break

Splendid sat in his office leaning over some papers. He had already finished going over them a while ago and was just doodling on some notebook book paper when the desk shook as someone slammed their hands on it. He quickly whipped his head up to see a familiar face.
"How did you get in here? I thought I locked the door, Shifty."
The raccoon just smirked and tossed a couple of bobby pins on the desk. "Not that hard when it's a standard lock and the only security you have is a dumbass moose."
"Language." The hero scolded and pushed the other out of his face. "What are you even doing here? Aren't you and your brother supposed to be planning your next heist?"
"Normally yes," The thief hoisted himself onto the desk, Splendid quickly moved the papers out of the way so they wouldn't get crumpled. "But I overheard that you made your own lunch today." He said nonchalantly.
"What? Why would you care?" He straightened the papers and set them on the side.
Shifty huffed and turned so he was facing Splendid. "Here," he set a bag beside him. "I may hate you, but your cooking tastes like literal garbage. I wouldn't wish that on my worst enemy. "
The squirrel eyed the bag suspiciously, "That rich coming from a raccoon."
"Exactly."
"Where did you even get this?"
"Had Lifty whip it up real quick." The raccoon shrugged. "I know you go to lunch around this time so thought I'd bring it."
"Well, thank you for your "generous" offer, Shifty." He stood up and pushed the food away. "But frankly, I don't trust you." He picked up his papers and headed towards the door. "Now I suggest you get out of my office before I deal with you myself."
He had just about reached for the handle when Shifty yanked the collar of his shirt back and spun him around. The sudden movement caused him to lose his grip on the papers and they scattered across the room.
Shifty shoved Splendid against the wall and planted both hands on each side of his head. "You know you're not getting rid of me that easily."
"Release me now or I'll-"
"You'll what?" Shifty teased. "You and I both know if you wanted to get rid of me you would have done it by now." Shifty leaned in. "Next you'll say you'll send your little boyfriend after me."
Splendid's face turned red. "Flippy is not my boyfriend!"
"Who said I was talking about Flippy?" Shifty suddenly backed off and waved his hand in the air. "But fine I'll leave." He turned towards the door and opened it. "Eat it or don't. It's all the same to me. But it's either you eat your garbage or something actually edible."
Splendid watched as he waltzed out the door.
When he turned the corner Splendid shut the door and proceeded to pick up the scattered papers. Instead of turning them in, he decided to sit down and take a look at the food Shifty gave him. Why not? If it is poisoned then he'd just come back the next day.
"A burrito?" Or at least it was shaped like one. He pulled it out and unwrapped it. "Oh, it's a chicken and lettuce wrap." He took a bite and his eyes widened. It had tomato, guacamole, and cheese. Simple but an amazing lunch. "Is there anything else in the bag?" He wondered aloud.
He took a look and saw nothing but a note. He read it. "I remember you saying you like these or something so here. <3 P.S Lifty added the heart and you can't erase pen so whatever."

"Didn't I mention this like a year ago?"
