“You travel a lot, right?”

“I do.”

“Ever get sick of it?”

She pursed her lips. “Lately, yes. I’ve been wondering what it would be like to settle down somewhere.”

For now, he would wait and hope they got closer each time she came to town, and he was thankful he had the moment right then to spend with her… even if it was short.
