Anders walked inside and kicked off his shoes, gently. He walked to the fridge and began taking things out for spaghetti. He put a pot of water on the stove to boil as he heard the door shut. Walking out of the kitchen and down the hall he greeted his girlfriend with a quick kiss.
Kyler smiled as she took off her shoes and set her purse down on the kitchen table. "How was work?" She asked him as she pulled her dark hair out of it's pony tail and shook it out.
"Work was tiring, as usual." Anders shrugged as he went to check on the water. "What about you, how were your classes?"
"I want to drop all my classes." Kyler said, suddenly.
"Why?" Anders said, walking over to her. "I can't just let you drop all your classes; your education is important to me..."
"You sound like my mother." Kyler grumbled. She sighed deeply. "I don't know, I just can't handle the stress. I have exams in like 2 weeks and a column for the paper and..I just can't do it..." She slumped down onto a chair.
Anders sat down in the chair next to her. "Sweetie, there's no need for you to drop all your classes." He stroked her cheek lightly. "I know you can do it, but if you really think you need to drop your classes, then it's your decision..."
Kyler nodded. "Yeah, I...just can't handle it for much longer. I'm going to continue being a journalist and learn how to take care of a house."
Anders laughed. "You do just fine."
Kyler shook her head. "I should at least learn how to make foods, other than sandwiches and cereal.
Anders kissed her forehead and smiled. "Love you."
Kyler smiled and leaned her forehead against his. "Oh, how would I live without you?"
Anders chuckled. "You wouldn't."
Kyler hit his arm, teasing. "That was a rhetorical question, silly."
"But you know it's true." Anders replied.
Kyler laughed. "That's beside the point." They were silent for a moment. "I think I am going to drop my classes. It's just too much to handle."
Anders pecked her soft lips lightly. "I understand."
Kyler stood up, quickly changing the subject, "So, what's for dinner?"
"Spaghetti and meat balls." Anders said, following her. "It'll be done soon."
