He grunted in response.

It was starting to be a bit much. There was a limit to what

Olive would do for this fake-dating relationship—even for a

free mango Frappuccino. She sighed. “Is it because of the

haircut?”

That got his attention. Adam looked down at her, a vertical

line deep between his eyebrows. “What?”

“The mood. Is it because of the haircut?”

“What mood?”

Olive gestured broadly toward him. “This. The bad mood

you’re in.”

“I’m not in a bad mood.”

She snorted—though that was probably not the right term

for what she just did. It was too loud and derisive, more like a

laugh. A snaugh.

“What?” He frowned, unappreciative of her snaugh.

“Come on.”

“What?”

“You ooze moodiness.”

“I do not.” He sounded indignant, which struck her as

oddly endearing.

“You so do. I saw that face, and I immediately knew.”

“You did not.”

“I did. I do. But it’s fine, you’re allowed to be in a bad

mood.”
