““Shoes. I needed to get on my tennis shoes. I scrambled through my things on the floor and found them, shoving my feet in and tying the knots.

He probably had to take a flower course during lust training. “Going somewhere?” In my peripheral vision I saw him standing in the bathroom door. I wouldn't meet his eyes, afraid they'd be as stormy as they were after our kiss. I stood and looked at the clock. It was nine. “Yeah, I'm going for a run.” “Mind if I join you?” I huffed out a determined breath and looked at him now. “Only if you'll do something for me.” He raised his eyebrows in response. “Teach me to hide my colors.””
