"You honestly want to date…me?"

Kate sent him a trying smile. "Why not? You're handsome; established and believe it or not, less of a jerk than the last guy I dated."

"I find that hard to believe."

"Well you've never met the guys I dated." She started to laugh; and slowly shrugged her shoulders. "It was just a thought."

"Just a thought? You never just have thoughts Kate."

"What? You can read minds now?"

He shrugged. "It's a blessing and a curse."

"Look, it'd be convenient; after all, we work together…"

"I'd forgotten."

She continued. "We have some of the same interests…"

"I build a boat."

She grinned in return. "I can swim."

"I've been told I have trouble communicating."

"Workable."

He continued. "I have very little patience."

"Mine will more than make up for it."

"I have three ex-wives."

"I have 3 brothers."

He stepped closer to her. "I like red heads."

"That could change."

"When?"

She stepped even closer. "Now."
