"Your friend is so sweet," Gianna says to Nico as he walks back into the sitting room after Jamal leaves."He isn't, he's just trying to get into your pants."

Gianna raises an eyebrow at him."Yeah," Nico admits, "But I don't have to kiss your ass to do so." He says smugly."You are right, you will have to do so much more," Gianna says with a sweet smile on her face.Nico half-smiles, the second he realizes he is smiling, he frowns."So you and Jamal have been having meetings a lot.
