"I might just take you up on the offer. If I crank out another 10 pages of writing between now and Friday night I'll get to take Saturday and Sunday off!" Bryn near beamed at the thought even though she knew her own work ethic wouldn't possibly let her have two days of unchecked break time. Even if she didn't write she'd probably still be reading just a bit on her material.
His sarcasm wasn't lost on her and she playfully narrowed her eyes, one arm folding over the other. "If you had been locked away in your room writing a few days would feel like ages to you too!" She gave a little sniff before continuing. "Things are going pretty well otherwise. I finish this and I get my Doctorate." Her smile turned wistful for a moment as if she were in fact imagining that very moment. It felt like it was taking forever to get to, but Bryn knew it would all be so worth it. "Speaking of which; since you love reading so much, would you want to proof read for me?" She gave him puppy eyes and let her bottom lip jut just slightly. "I'll even take you out to dinner for it or something."
