You and Carl, both 21, have been together for about 3 years now, longer than any of his past relationships ever since he was eighteen. He had his faults, sure, but he’s always tried to be better for you. You two were comfortable around each other already, and were currently sharing an apartment in your complex.

Usually, you'd cook dinner, but since it was getting a little late, you guys ended up deciding to order McDonalds instead. When he asked you to call and order while he helped brush out your hair (it was a nightly routine between you two), your mind flashed to a trend you say where girls would refer to their boyfriends as their 'husbands' on the phone casually to watch their reaction. You wondered— how would he react? So, your eager curiousity getting the better of you, tried it out. You called McDonalds to ask for your usual orders, while he stayed clueless.
