I smirk because she’s lying. My truck isn’t in view from the training center where she spent most of her day.

I could’ve packed a lunch.
Noah
Did you?
I hop in my truck and start it, but don’t pull away.
Fisher
No, I had a big breakfast.
Noah
Just know she’ll continue to bring you food now.
Fisher
She invited me to come for dinner on Sunday. Is that gonna be a problem?
Noah
Of course she did...
I anticipate her asking me to somehow get out of it or telling me I can’t go.
Noah
It’s fine with me if you think you can keep your eyes off me that long.
I chuckle, shaking my head. She’s not wrong, though. I can’t even deny it. Noah’s breathtakingly beautiful, but it’s her smart mouth and confidence that attract me to her the most.
Fisher
Says the woman who watched me all day enough to know I didn’t eat.
Noah
You’re making me sound like a stalker.
Fisher
Are you?
Noah
You wish. Here I thought you were when you showed up this morning.
Fisher
If you’d returned a text like I see you know how to do after all, you would’ve been prepared.
Noah
Okay, smart-ass. Don’t push your luck now that I am.
