Casey made it back home that night rather worn out from the day's events and was not emotionally prepared for Kane's interrogation. "Where have you been lately? You haven't been home a single night this week."
"I don't have to report everything to you."
"Touchy! You must be up to something scandalous. This wouldn't happen to involve Snow White, would it?" he asked as he waggled his brows.
"Even if it did, it wouldn't be any of your business, Kane," Casey said tiredly. "I just have stuff going on right now, okay? Normal stuff. Not stuff you need to concern yourself with."
"I need to concern myself with everything about you because you're so hopeless."
"I am not! I'll have you know, I made half a dozen phone calls on Sunday and I was fine." Well, mostly fine. It had really worn him out but it hadn't been as bad as usual. He had kept his composure outwardly at least even if he had stuttered a lot.
