"Oops, sorry I didn't mean to interrupt", Logan exclaimed, still standing at the bottom of the stairs.
"Just perfect, thanks mom", Juliette thought to herself.
"I'm sorry, I....didn't know that..." Robin started to say.
"That's okay, Log. Rob and I were just talking", Juliette hurried to say.
"Yeah, that I could see", Logan mocked.
"It's okay, you can continue with whatever you're doing. I am really tired and I don't feel like sleeping on that uncomfortable sofa in the studio, so I'm leaving now".
"Are you sure? You can sleep in my bed if you want", Juliette said, a little more calm.
"Thanks, but I rather go home and sleep on the Dreampod. It's a lot more comfortable, don't you agree, Robin?"
"Uh, yeah, in fact it is", Robin answered, still embarrassed.
"Well then, I'm off. I just hope mom won't be mad at me for abandoning my surveillance post".
"Log", Juliette begged, glancing at Robin. He looked at her in his turn, clearly confused.
"Anyway, I'm sure you two can take care of yourselves", Logan concluded.
"Now goodbye, have a wonderful night", he added with a wink and left the house.
Juliette turned to Robin again. He was still staring at her with a questioning look in his eyes.
"Surveillance post?" He asked.
"My mom's idea. She thought we might need a chaperone", Juliette answered as the door closed behind Logan.
"So she still doesn't trust me", Robin sighed.
"Correction: it's me she doesn't trust. She knows how much I... still love you and thought it was 'dangerous' for me to be left alone with you".
"Well, tell your mother she has nothing to worry about, cause I love you too, and like I said before, I'm not here to take advantage of you, but to offer my help and protection for both you and Rowan".
"If you really want to protect us you better leave now. It's getting late and you don't want to get us in trouble with your wife".
"But we haven't finished talking, we still have matters to discuss".
"We could see each other some other day to talk about those".
"Some other day? You promise?"
"I promise. Now, would you help me take Rowan to bed? He seems tired and it'll be a good way of saying goodbye to him".
"Sure, I'd be glad to".
