Summary
Have you ever thought about why I come in and interrupt you on your colony counting?”
“Because you don’t follow the rules.”
“Not your rules.”
“Any rules,” you breathe.
He laughs, quick and through his teeth.
“You follow too many rules.”
Ryland’s hand rests on the counter, fingers twitching in crumbling restraint.
“I come in and interrupt you because I like to think that someday, I may get you to crack.”
Your response is just a breath of air, because what do you even say to that?
“We’re colleagues,” you say stupidly.
“You know there’s something more there. I know it too. I’m not an idiot.”
