"Did you get a ticket for the game?" Jace asked, smoothly dodging whatever I'd been about to say.

"Not yet. Got any extras? I'll buy one off you," I shot back, not even trying to play coy.

Jace paused, then finally pulled out another.

"You're like a walking ticket booth," I teased, slipping the extra ticket into my pocket.

He just smirked, brushing it off. Honestly, I had no clue what else to say to him.
