"And don't be all MEH with me, young man. I am just trying to be here for you... OH. Speaking of... I have a get well gift for you which I clearly didn't give to you while you were in the hospital... do you... do you want it now?" she said quietly, watching him from the corner of her eye.
Jim started on his first plate and gave Lexi an unimpressed look. Damn her for knowing STUFF about him. Well, well she could know MORE then. "Marie DUMPED me while I was in the hospital wing."
Yeah now Lexi could go ahead and fall over in a dead faint. After all, who in their right mind would dump him? Especially when he genuinely liked her and had absolutely no desire to end things himself.
Even the threat of gifts didn't quite make up for it. He ate a bit of cake and considered for a moment.
"A get well gift. Nice of you, Lexi. Sure. Have at it."
