Logan: I moved around a lot as a kid. I guess I sorta got used to figuring things out no matter where I was or what situation I was in. I’m pretty good at thinking on my feet and making thing work.
Jeni:Your boss must love you.
Logan:Everyone loves me.
Jeni:Maybe confident should have been your word.
Logan: Adored?
Jeni:Tipping the needle toward arrogant.
Logan: Treasured?
Jeni:Definitely arrogant.
Logan:Okay, okay. Almost everyone loves me. Everyone except Jeni Bishop.
Jeni:I’m a hard sell, it’s true.
Logan:I’ll change your mind eventually.
Jeni: You’re welcome to try.
Logan cocked his head and lifted his eyes to the dark room beyond. He could almost hear the challenge in her message. You’re welcome to try.
It was late, and he was spent, emotionally and physically, which probably explained the thought that ran through his head in that moment. Thankfully, he had the restraint not to say it to her, but that didn’t stop him from thinking it.
Watch out, Jeni Bishop. I just might.
