Jimmy's face went from pale to tomato red at my words. "What the heck? Don't insult me. We're square, end of story."

Seeing him so annoyed yet trying to keep his cool made my day a little brighter.

I took a step forward, and he hastily stepped back, crossing his arms, looking like I was the big bad wolf to his Little Red Riding Hood. I couldn't help but laugh, "What, scared I'll do something?

"Is being good a bad thing now? Unless you were hoping I'd be..." Jimmy cut himself off, "Don't try to bait me. And keep your distance, I'll start recording to prove it."

His cowardly stance made me snort with laughter. "Out with it. What did Dustin do to tame you?"
