Once the office door shut behind them, Dustin overheard Collin on the phone. "Contact the boxing gym. I'm bringing someone along shortly." The moment he heard those words, Dustin jolted back to awareness, his voice laced with panic as he asked, "Collin, you're not actually thinking of draggingto the boxing gym, are you?"

Collin, drenched in sweat as well, stood off to the side with a calm that didn't match the scene.

Fear washed over Dustin's face, but he couldn't even lift a hand to protest. "I can't do it, Collin. I messed up. Just letoff the hook. If this keeps going, it's going to kill me." Collin gave him a distant look, then sat down abruptly on the gym floor, stripping off his gloves and flinging them to the side.

Dustin hesitated, then quietly unscrewed the cap of his water bottle and took a sip.

Moments later, Collin's voice dropped to a whisper as he said, "I hope this won't happen again." Dustin understood right away that Collin was calling him out for spacing out during the meeting. "Yeah, I know. I'm not myself today. I'm sorry."

"Is this about Dolores?" said Collin, tossing the question out so easily! that Dustin jolted up like someone had yanked a string tied to his spine. "How did you know?" Dustin's shock was evident, his mind racing with paranoia.

Collin sneered, "You disappeared with Dolores after the banquet last night.

You think people wouldn't notice?" Dustin's face turned red with t embarrassment. "You seem to catch everything, don't you, Collin?" Taking a breath, Dustin looked at Collin and said, "What if, hypothetically, I ended up spending the night with someone?" "If you're into Dolores, you can ask her out," Collin suggested.

Dustin's cheeks burned with embarrassment at the straightforward response.

However, just a second after, he let out a faint, rueful smile and said, "But I have a feeling she doesn't see it that En way..." Moments later, Collin said firmly, "Then you should try harder." With that, Collin got to his feet and started walking away.

Watching him go, Dustin murmured in disbelief, "But I tried my hardest last night..."
