Friday night they spent at the drive-in. It didn’t matter what was playing, they went just to be together. The girl who worked the counter would ask, “Same as last week?” and start to ring them up. Two months into their relationship and they were already predicable. To shake things up last week, Chloe said, “No. I’ll take a loaded hot dog please.” The girl giggled and deleted the burger and added the hot dog.
    Sitting in the dark Jeep with Chloe, watching B movies, eating cheap food was the highlight of Mitch’s week. Some days he worked late and only got to speak to her on the phone. We wanted more… Much more.

    Saturday afternoon, Chloe called. “Hey, my last client cancelled. Do you want to go to the demolition derby? It’s almost over so we could get in free.”
    “Absolutely, I’ll be there in ten minutes.”
    “Great. I’ll pick up a couple subs and stash them in my purse. Food at the pavilion is pricy and crappy. Not a good combination.”
    “I love your thrifty side,” Mitch admitted. He didn’t mind spending money but it was fun watching her negotiate or haggle for a perceived bargain.
    By the time they arrived at the derby, all the good seats were taken. They sat on the top row and munched on their sandwiches while the cars in the arena demolished each other.
    “Go green car…go!” Chloe yelled and jumped up and down. Lettuce from her sub spilled out and hit the guy in front of them in the back of the head. He touched his head and then turned around and scowled.
    Before he could speak a word, Chloe jumped in. “Oh, I’m so sorry. I’m so sorry. Can I buy you a beer?”
    “No worries. A little lettuce won’t kill me, but I wouldn’t turn down a beer.”
    “A beer it is.”
    Five minutes later, Chloe returned with three beers. Mitch couldn’t help it, he laughed, then grabbed her and kissed the tip of her nose. Her kindness was blatant, always right there, front and center. But the cuteness? That’s what got to him. “Chloe. I think I’m falling in love with you.”
    Chloe stopped moving and stared at him.
    “Was that too soon?” Mitch was never good at relationship stuff. His insides were doing the rumba—heart pounding, lungs heaving, stomach clenching—waiting for her response.
    “No. I’ve been busting at the seams to tell you how I feel. I love you Mitch. You are everything I’ve ever wanted in a man.”
    Mitch leaned forward and slipped his arms around her. She laid her head on his chest and held him tight. Chloe felt so right, and good against him he didn’t want to let go. She turned her head and pressed a kiss to his chest, her arms tightening around him even more. They held each other the rest of the evening.
    It was dark when Mitch pulled up to Chloe’s car in front of her spa. “I don’t want to go but it’s late and we both have to work. I’ll call you tomorrow.” Mitch placed one last kiss on Chloe’s soft lips.
    “Until tomorrow.” Chloe blew him a kiss as she got in her car.
    He waited until she drove off in the direction of her house before he left, all the while feeling loved for the first time in years.

Chapter Nine

    Mitch pulled up to his house and the intuition that saved him numerous times at the prison, kicked in. He didn’t sense danger, just that something didn’t feel right. The hair on the back of his neck didn’t stand up, but his neck muscles tensed. He parked and decided to walk around the perimeter of the house before he entered.
    Mitch turned the corner and noticed the spare bedroom’s window screen lying on the ground. He’d left the window cracked for Zeke before he left. He hadn’t taken pictures of the kittens yet. He thought maybe he’d keep one or two of them. They’d grown on him. Mitch looked in and the kittens looked fine, sleeping in their bed, but Zeke was nowhere. How could I have made such a stupid mistake? Mitch thought.
    Mitch secured the screen and then once inside, he shut and locked the window. He sat on
