It took everything in me not to pummel Josh into the ground when he said that. I’d have lost whatever ground I gained with Lavinia if I’d done that, though.
On ice fighting she can forgive as part of the profession. Off the ice? She’d made it perfectly clear to me once before that she’d never stand for that.
Blossom
When did you learn to speak French? Aunt Constance was very impressed.
Roman
I travel a lot, and I hate going to a different country and expecting them to automatically know and speak English.
I plan my trips a year or so in advance and spend about that long learning the language.
Blossom
How many languages do you speak?
Roman
French, Italian, Spanish, Hindi. My Vietnamese isn’t good, but I can hold easy conversations to get by. I’m currently learning Polish.
Blossom
You’ve been to France, Italy, Spain, India, and Vietnam. You’re planning on going to Poland.
Roman
Yep, and I’m not planning on going to Poland yet. My neighbor is Polish, and she thinks since I have a grasp of languages, she can teach me her language.
Blossom
That’s really impressive. I only left the country for the Olympics.
Roman
I’ll take you wherever you want to go.
Blossom
To the moon?
Roman
And back.
Blossom
Shouldn’t you be talking to the guys right now? You’re going to be on a plane with them for six hours. This is the perfect time to bond.
Roman
What do you want us to do? Sit around in a circle and braid each other’s hair? Talk about boys?
Blossom
Don’t take tone with me. The goodwill from the Falcons game isn’t going to last long.
Roman
