Lucas smiled. “Last time I visited, I didn’t want to interrupt your work, so I didn’t even go up to your floor.”

“How about I make it up to you with some coffee upstairs today?” Arabella offered.

“Have a seat,” Arabella told Lucas.

Once they were both settled, Lucas looked around curiously. “You guys hiring? I could totally work here.”

“You?” Arabella raised an eyebrow. “Doing what? Teaching my employees how to fly planes?”

“I could be an assistant or something. You know, grab coffee, run prints, take notes in meetings.” He might not be cut out for high–stakes corporate work, but he could handle the small stuff.

Arabella didn’t dwell on it and returned to her documents.

Lucas grew restless, his mind beginning to wander.

Then an idea struck him. He stood up and slipped out of the office.
