“Nobel who?”

“Nobel...so I had to knock.”

Even though I try not to reward the idiocy of that joke with laughter, it still bubbles out of me. “That was terrible!”

“Commit and bring it all together with a forehead kiss,” I demand.

He does as I ask, squeezing me as he plucks a kiss on my forehead, and then we sit there chatting until the sun goes down.
