Kapitel 95: Chapter 41

"Lexie?"

She looked up at the sound of Killian's voice.

"Did I lose you, honey? I mean, I know I'm just a dumb cowboy, but I think I know good-"

"Shut up."

Okay, he shouldn't have used the dumb cowboy bit. She hated when he did that. But still...

"Shut up? Are you telling your wonderful husband to shut up?" He grinned, hoping she'd relax.

"Yes, I am." She rubbed her forehead, and he hoped this whole thing hadn't given her a headache. "You may be a cowboy, but you are not dumb"

"Okay, okay, okay." He sat up straight and held out his hands, palms facing forward. "Just trying to inject a little note of humor here."

"Well, it wasn't the least bit funny." She wet her lips and leaned onto her forearms. "Killian, you are smarter than half the people in the state of Kansas, so quit the dumb cowboy jokes, okay?"

"Got it." He grinned at her. "Just not an art expert." Then he sobered. "But I do know good work when I see it. And yours is damn fucking good."
