He looked rather dashing lounging there, and his grin said he knew it.“You’re awfully perky for someone who almost died.” She smiled at him. “And played the hero.”He grimaced. “Shh. Or she’ll get started again.”“You’re a goddamned idiot, is what you are.” Claudia scowled from the adjacent bed. Her face was still a little pale, her scratches almost done healing. “Jumped on me like I was some fucking damsel in distress.”He snorted. “Frost, no one would ever mistake you for a damsel. I was just trying to save a teammate.”“Didn’t see you tackle Marcus or Cruz.”“Fuck, you’re ornery. I was standing right next to you.” Shaw huffed and sat back in the pillows. “Forget it. Next time, I’ll let you take a grenade to the face.”Claudia flopped back as well. “It was stupid and misguided…but thanks.”A far as thank yous went, it was pretty grudging. Emerson saw the look of blank shock on Shaw’s face and swallowed her own grin.But as she glanced over at Marcus and Cruz, both of whom had flat out refused to get in a bed, her smile disappeared.
