"It kinda is. Girls'll think it's hot at first but a lot of 'em don't wanna raise somebody else's kid. They want their own," He shrugged. "I ain't gonna worry about it."

"You don't have a girlfriend now?" Erin asked, sort of surprised.

She blinked at him. "I guess...well you just got out..." she frowned.
"Mikey's the perfect kid, any girl is gonna love him," Erin assured him.
"I am!" Mikey laughed.

"I'll believe it when I see it," Tristan said with a laugh and then looked back at Erin, "Maybe I'd have somebody but I been spending all my time with you."

Erin blushed without realizing it. "Yeah well...it was part of the protocol..." she stared down at her burger.

Mikey picked up his grilled cheese and took a bite, and then started talking about the lake.
A second later he was coughing, choking on his sandwich.
"Mikey!"

Tristan's eyes widened and reacting in a second he lifted Mikey out of the booth and got himself out after him. Then he wrapped his arms around his waist and began the Heimlich.

Erin blinked, too shocked to say anything, and Mikey coughed the sandwich bite out. People in the restaurant started clapping and both Mikey and Erin started crying. Erin hugged Mikey.
"I told you to never speak with your mouth full!!"

Tristan was so scared that his hands were shaking. He looked down at the pair and sighed heavily, trying to steady his breath.

Erin sat back down and Mikey crawled on her lap, still crying silently. She rubbed his back and wiped her own eyes and looked up at Tristan. She reached for his hand and squeezed it.

Tristan clasped her hand in his and squeezed back. He could have lost him. It could have happened so fast.

"Welcome to parenthood," she whispered at him, and kissed Mikey's forehead.
"I wanna go home..." Mikey muttered, hugging her tightly.
"Tristan. I mean....your dad....will take you." she pulled Mikey from her grasp and handed him to Tristan. "Take him back. I'll take care of the bill." she looked him in the eyes. Just go.

Tristan lifted him up into his arms and held him close, "you're okay," he said to him softly. He started to leave the restaurant, carrying him. "I got us a movie to watch. You like penguins?" he asked him.
