"So like, why does Minoth call you babygirl?"

Addam stiffened, eponymous apple bobbing as his hands clenched on the steering wheel. Why, indeed. And why did she know that? To his closest recollection, the most similar item they'd ever let slip was "babe".

Drumming his fingers (not half so rhythmically and masculinely as Minoth would, which was the problem) garnered him no lessening in intensity of the mischievous gaze Nia had lit upon him.

Ahem. Well. "How about we stop talking for a little while, Nia?"

A snicker from the passenger seat. Wonderful. "Sure, okay. If you say so. Babygirl."
