"What if.... what if I'm OK with the mistakes?"

He ventured softly, picking words carefully.

Willow did earnestly try to imagine that. She swallowed hard when she knew what she needed to say, her throat suddenly dry.

"I became this mindful on the first place because you weren't okay with that. Even if you think you're okay with it and even if i could un-learn it, I'm the one that would have to be willing to bear the punishments. You're not the one that pays for the mistakes."

Ansel nodded slowly.

"That's fair. I know that you've had to carry that all with you to this point...... but..... I'm not the same as who I was then. "

"You're not," she agreed.

Willow eased a little since saying the truth didn't seem to have caused an explosion.

"It might be related to the sick thing in my head too, though. I don't know where that starts and stops."

"I don't know, and I'm not sure how to go forward with this talk..... but I'm hopeful."

He whispered gently into her ear as he picked her up and held her tight.

Willow curled her arms around his neck.

"We don't have to talk about it anymore."

She was fine with a little bit of cuddling instead. The more she relaxed, though, the more her stomach remembered that it hadn't been fed yet.

Ansel nuzzled her a bit, kissing her temple.

"I think you said that feeling is hunger? "

Willow nodded, tugging her towel more firmly around herself as she started to chill.

"It's breakfast time..."

"That's a yes. Want me to get you something to eat? "

She could get dressed?

Willow nodded a little.

"That would be okay. "

"Airtight, love. "

With a kiss he took off to get her some food. This morning was muffins and parfaits with mocha coffee.

Willow put on clean pajamas.

"This is really good. "

The coffee was bringing her a special joy.

"The coffee chocolate was Brooke's idea."

He cautioned, unsure if it was good or not.

"But Taylor agreed so I thought it might be safe?"

He tried but was so clueless.

Willow took another long sip, enjoying it.

"You can't taste it anymore? "

" i thought it was just the smell? "

He could, but the coffee smelled so strong that he didn't realize it was taste, too.

"So... you thought I was drinking chocolate water? "

Ansel looked at her sheepishly.

"Yeah....."

He admitted with a tiny little look of shame.

Willow grinned, amused.

"Everything has a taste."

"Really now? "

He asked with a curious look over his beautiful wife.

"Like. .... everything? "

Like .... like countertops?

Willow nodded.

"Some are stronger than others, but yes. "

"That's weird ..... why would walls need flavor? "

He asked with such confusion.

Willow hid her grin behind her cup.

"No one adds flavors to them. Things just have them naturally, like smells."

"That's weird. Things that aren't for eating shouldn't have taste....."

He shared, not able to grasp this entirely.

Willow bit her lip, hesitating before pointing out something that even he should be able to understand.

"You have a taste."

He hadn't seemed to think her having a taste was weird.

Ansel smirked now.

/ Because nature knows we're supposed to be eaten. /

He pointed out with a wickedly boyish delight.

Willow sighed, giving up.

"If you say so. "

Ansel nodded.

"I certainly do. "

He agreed, happy.

Willowworked on finishing her breakfast, nudging him with her toes.

"You don't have to stay and watch me eat. "

Willow smiled a little, secretly pleased

"I said you didn't have to, not that you couldn't. "

Ansel grinned and rocked back on his feet.

"Besides. You make cute little happy faces when you really like what you're eating. "

Willow blushed.

"I do? "

"Yes."

He purred, leaning to boop her nose.

" need more? "

Willow looked down at the tray and then shook her head.

"That'll be enough. "

She wasn't totally full, but it wasn't enough to bother with requesting more food

Ansel grinned and swept off with the dirty dishes and let her worry over dressing while he tried to save Nora from the twinky mistake that would likely haunt her forever.

But he returned in about twenty minutes..... convered in pastry bits and white goo.

Willow had not changed. She was still wearing the pajamas shed put on after her bath.

"What happened to you? "

"Uh...nora thought she could bribe the kids.... but forgot about how much Newton lives twinkies..."

He explained sheepishly.

"Everyone's ok? "

"Of course. You take good care of them. "

Willow nodded.

"It looks like you're wearing an entire box of snacks, though. "

"Uh, kinda, yeah..... I'm sorry, I'll wash up real quick. "

He felt kinda bad coming back all crummy.

"I wasn't criticizing."

Willow was even smiling a little
