Jill unpacked her gear in a private room in the infirmary as she thought about her airplane flight with Jack. She replayed their conversation in her mind and analyzed it to determine what kind of person Jack was. She purposely was silent during the first half of the flight, waiting to see if Jack would initiate any conversations with her. Since he was rather quiet, she assumed that he wasn’t a “life of the party” kind of guy. This was important; she didn’t want a partner that was all talk and no action. When it came to “watching her back” she felt she could trust a quiet person more than a motor-mouth. On the other hand, when she turned his grunge joke around, he immediately caught on, so his cognitive skills were pretty good. He also had a sense of remorse when he realized he might have embarrassed her about shaving. Savage has good perception and genuine feelings about others. Most guys are a bit rough around the edges when it comes to sensing other’s feelings.
After unpacking, Jill showered. She made sure she gave her legs the once over with her razor. Jack would probably never see her legs during the competition, but she liked the idea of having them smooth and fresh just in case he did.
As Jill was drifting off to sleep, she continued to ponder Sergeant Savage. I wonder what new and interesting things I will learn about him tomorrow.
