Her reply made him smile even wider. Jack assumed he had worn a plaid shirt that day since he had a number of them for work. He might have worn a henley since that was his other usual choice. Rarely did he dress in a suit unless there was an administrative meeting. He spent a lot of time on site and it required construction attire. Only now for their date was he in a dress shirt and slacks.

It was only their first date and day together. In time, he expected they'd read each other properly. Jane seemed sure of herself...for the most part. Maybe it was her intelligence that gave her the air of confidence he saw. At the moment, he was the one who started to feel unsure. Was he appearing over eager? Jack genuinely liked her and never had met a woman like her. He was sure he never would.

"I drink a good bit of it through out the day to keep me going. It isn't good to feel even slightly drowsy with what I do whether it's drawing a plan or up on a scaffold. ...I hope we can at least meet in the evenings," he ended somewhat timidly. Jack hoped Jane wasn't put off by their differences. He would surely attempt to stay up on occasion with her when he wasn't working the next day should she want.
