Wayward verse

Ben had asked Jesse to drop him off a few blocks from Mama's house, and planned to hoof it the rest of the way. He had a seabag over his shoulder and a baseball cap over his eyes. Jeans, boots and a flannel shirt; everything about him looked like how he had felt once upon a time. The perfect beach tan under the clothes betrayed the midwestern look he was trying to play off, but part of him just felt better this way.

He walked up the driveway on his own, knowing that someone in the house was probably already aware that he was approaching. But he kept going, then dropped the bag and knocked on the door. He probably could have just walked in, but it had been awhile now since Ben had visited and he didn't want to step over any boundaries that had been put up while he was gone.

"Oh yeah. Except for the occasional trouble I need to bail Jesse out of."

"Bail Jesse out?" Ben, don't think she doesn't know how much of a trouble magnet you are. You two have been together a while now.

"Yeah, he's kinda fallen in with this heavy party crowd. Someone needs to make sure he doesn't make people vanish off the face of the Earth just when they steal the girl he has his eye on."

"I guess in that case, you would be the smaller trouble magnet."

"No medals here. But we may have chocolate coins wrapped in gold foil?"

"Nah, I think I'm good just thinking of one. So where's the rest of the family?"

"Nate and Luke are downstairs, Mama's in the kitchen, and everyone else is on the road."

"So I only have to compete against the boys for what you leave of the cake. I can work with that."

"What makes you think I'm going to leave any cake?"

"Because you love me?" He turned on his puppy eyes.

"Love does not mean cake. Cake is worth so much more than love."

"Still would pick cake."

He sighed and hung his head. "Maybe I should leave and let you and you cake spend the night together."
