Blue fire glared up at him. "I would like to shoot you now."

The threat was so unexpected and said with such venom, he couldn't help but laugh. "I'd love to see you try."

He toyed with the loose strand of her hair lying beside his hand. "Probably a good idea considering you'd miss, and I'd be chasing you. Can you do me a favor, though?"

She blinked up at him. "What?"

"Try not to run in circles. It takes the fun out of things."
