  “What’s this?”
  
  “Barf bag.”
  
  I tried to hand it back to him. “No, really, you’re not all that bad.”
  
  That earned a double quirk of the eyebrows and I could’ve sworn a twitch in a
  smile muscle or two. But he wouldn’t let me score the last point. “You ever
  seen a dead body?”
  
  “No,” I admitted.
  
  “Then you better keep it.”
