A Silver Lighter

Summary:

Kai Monteago buys candles that Wenona views as inadequate.

Work Text:

How cheap.

•••

Candles were the new trend online right now. Kai Monteago felt a little pressured to join the trend, so he bought some candles that he thought would smell nice. When he showed them to Wenona, she said, "They look cheap."

"But they smell nice," he replied.

"Have you tried these before?"

Kai chose not to answer.

Wenona sighed, but she gave him a lighter that he could use. He recognized it as the silver lighter that he was so surprised to find out costed a few thousand dollars before they started dating. It was even more surprising when Wenona claimed that she had plenty more lighters that also costed around the same amount. Some costed more. Rich people were so weird, but he was dating one, so it was fine.

After he lit it, Wenona said, "It doesn't smell that good."

"It smells okay to me," he said.

"I can find higher quality ones for you."

"Will those cost half a million dollars too?" he teased, pushing her hair behind her ear.

"If that's what you want," she responded simply.

"Okay, wait, you don't have to..."

When Wenona made up her mind about something, though, it was hard to talk her out of it. "I'll find you better candles. Throw these out or use them fast."

Well, there wasn't anything else he could tell her, and Kai did like to be spoiled a little, so he would let Wenona do as she pleased.
