Nik and I stared at Josh with equal annoyance written on our features. We had just been in the middle of… something before Josh intruded.
“If I'm not interrupting anything too important… ”
“No, nothing important,” sighed Nik, taking a step away. I suddenly realized we had been standing too close for comfort. I backed away too.
“You know it's not polite to eavesdrop,” I smirked at Josh.
Josh rolled his eyes. “Then try not having your 'cough' arguments within the same state as anyone.”
“What do you mean by 'cough' argument?” I asked, feeling the need to be affronted.
“Nothing, he doesn't mean a thing,” said Nik. Out of the corner of my eye, I noticed Nik give Josh a look that was clearly intended to convey a message. What was going on? And they say women are confusing. “Let's get going,” Nik added.
“Wait! Am I the only one who thinks this is an insane idea?”
“No,” said Josh. “I'm not thrilled with attacking a fae lord myself.”
“Look, compared to the Louvre, his house will be easy to steal from. His magic keeps him from being able to use any form of electronic security systems. We just have to… you know… be quiet. Besides, we have Josh.”
