I gently passed on the odd opportunity to mate with James which looking back was confusing seeing as I've been fantasizing about such a thing. But it just didn't seem right. He was a nice guy but i don't think I could ever mate with him. So I told him I'd see him later that night when my first shift was due to start. He tried getting me to still take the gun but I told him I just couldn't and to please not tell Joy. I told him I'd find some other way to protect myself while on route.
That night things went smoothly and me and James even talked a little more then I'd expected seeing how awkward things had gotten at my house. For the most part we avoided it or I avoided it James I think was bouncing the whole thing around in his head the whole route for as we neared one of the safer rest areas on the route he looked over at me and smiled.
