Noah stands up, too. His face is flushed, and I wonder if he’s feeling even a fraction of the electricity that arcs through my body. If so, I’m surprised this house doesn’t spontaneously combust.

“I’m sure you want to get Bartholomew home,” he says slowly. “But could I talk you into sticking around for a quick—”

“Yes.”

He cocks his head at me. “How do you know I wasn’t going to say lobotomy?”

My cheeks warm, but I will myself not to look embarrassed. “Or maybe invite me to stay for a Jell-O wrestling match?”

It comes out more suggestive than I meant it to, or maybe I did that on purpose. God, I’m nervous.

But Noah just grins. “That wasn’t my plan, but I can’t say I’d object.”

I swallow hard, wanting to keep things light so I don’t do something dumb like pouncing on him. “I suppose you could have been asking me to stick around for a quick game of Monopoly.”

Noah laughs and crosses his arms over his chest. “Maybe I was going to ask for help folding laundry.”

I echo his laugh and run my fingers through my hair. “You know, I might actually agree to that. As long as we could turn on the History channel and watch that new rock show. Have you seen it?”
