Jared smirked, the double meaning not escaping him, but was glad that it had worked. He was sure that Jay felt significantly better knowing he could now climb stairs without breaking a sweat. Jared, however, didn't respond.
A knock on the door and suddenly the frame of Lawrence Monday was in the door. She made a remark to Jay about feeling better and then turned to him, and got straight to asking reporter questions; the woman was a hero from what he had heard - couldn't she take a night off from asking questions!?
Jared was too tired to be irritated though, and it was his exhaustion that brought out the less serious side of him. "I couldn't forget such a pretty face Miss Monday, of course I remember you."
Jared turned to face her and patted the area next to him. "Come on in and join us. I saved you a seat, Laurie. Can I call you Laurie?"
He smiled.
Her question remained unanswered at first. Jared could have been snarky about it, but he didn't feel in the mood to do so. He also really didn't want to play reporter games. The question she asked wasn't specific and he had no idea what she would have heard about him after the attack unless she heard what Jay had said. "What sort of 'strange things' are you hearing about me, Miss Monday?"
