"That's... I... Why would you..." He was fumbling. Oh god it was so painfully obvious. Even his angry tone was half-assed. Damn the angel for putting him in this sort of situation.

But Jeff wasn't about to give up. In a last ditch effort to save face, he snapped, "Why? It almost sounds like you want me to miss you."
