“Relax, I’m just kidding. Sit down. I’ll be on my best behavior, I promise.”
I shot him a look.
“I promise,” he said again.
“This is a good segue into discussing the gala. Clearly, I’m going to have to give you some pointers on appropriate topics of conversation.”
“If you make me talk about stock portfolios the deal is off,” he joked.
“I’m serious,” I said. “I appreciate the fact that you’re doing this for me, but people are going to talk. They’re going to wonder who you are, where we met, your pedigree, all of it.”
“People? Or your mother.”
I closed my mouth.
“Has the senator’s son called you yet?”
“No.”
“Good. Which brings me back to my original question. Are you fucking anyone?”
“Bones,” I groaned, burying my face in my hands.
“Just answer the question.”
“You answer the question,” I fired back with a glare. “What was it you said? Right… Big tits, big hair, big attitude? Got any of those hanging around?”
“Nope.”
I raised my brows. “Really?”
“Really.” He leaned forward. “Now answer the damn question.”
“No, there’s no one else.”
The corner of his mouth twitched.
“What?”
“You might not have big hair, but your big attitude gets me hard.”
“I noticed you didn’t say anything about my other attributes.”
“That’s because you don’t have big tits.”
I glared.
“You’ve got perfect tits.”
“There must be something wrong with me, because I’m far too flattered by your crass compliment.”
“I’ll give you five bucks if you say fuck.”
“Finish your coffee, Bones. We have somewhere to be.”
“You look tired,” Bones said as we walked to my car.
“Your compliments need work.”
