What should I make for dinner? Spaghetti? No. Lasagna? No. Ooh shrimp Alfredo! Yes! I was walking around the grocery store looking for the shrimp, when I see Mike with...Jason? "Mike-" I stopped and stood there. They're kissing. Mike's gay? Mike turned towards me and he turned pale.
"Ca-Catherine? What are you doing here?" He mumbled. "I was umm just shopping for dinner." Did that even make sense. Shopping for dinner? "Oh god! You're not homophobic are you?" Jason broke the silence. "What? No. I'm just a little shocked." I smiled. "Didn't Mike tell you? We've been dating for 2 weeks." Mike was looking down at his shoes. "Mikey? What do you find so interesting about your shoes?" I chuckled. Mike looked up and smiled. "Here. I'll continue shopping and meet me at my house in 10 minutes and we'll talk about it, okay?" I gave both a comforting smile. "Okay." They both chanted. I never thought Mike would be gay. I always saw it in Vic, he's been acting a little weird lately.

"Alright! Tell me! Where did you guys meet?" I yelled as I put everything in the kitchen. "Woah nice house." Jason complimented as he examined the house. I chuckled, "Thanks. Tony and I bought it a year later we got married." I started rinsing the shrimp and taking off their tails. "Hold up! You married Tony?" Jason asked, sounding surprise. "Any babies?" I kind of frowned at that question. "Cat you don't have to-" Mike started saying, but I interrupted.
"No it's fine. I can't have babies, Jason." He frowned. "Oh I'm sorry. I didn't know." I smiled. "It's fine, you didn't know. There's a possible chance I can get pregnant, so fingers crossed." I feel like I forgot- "Shit! I forgot the sodas!" I groaned. "Here, we'll go buy them." Mike insisted. "Please?" He nodded. I handed him the money and they left. My phone started ringing, it was Tony. I smiled at my screen.
"Hey babe." He yawned. "Hey babygirl, how you doing?"
"Good. I'm just making dinner." "Mmm. What are you making for daddy tonight?" I chuckled, "Shrimp Alfredo."
"I can wait to get home, I wanna eat you already."
"Tony! You're at work!" I laughed. He chuckled. "So I've been thinking..." Is that a good thing?
