On to see Abbey...

"Look, I get my own welcome back party."
Josh smiled. "May I come in, ma'am?"
Abbey waved him into the residence and one of her agents shut the door behind him.
"I came to ask a favor."
"Oh, am I back in Washington already?"
Josh didn't know what so say, so he stayed silent.
"Go, Josh, what did you need?"
"CJ is in love."
Abbey perked up. "Really? How do you know?"
"She told me."
Abbey sighed. "Men. Who's she in love with?"
"Danny Concannon."
Abbey began to laugh. "You're kidding."
"No, ma'am."
"Does my husband know?"
"Yes."
"What did he say?"
"That you could help me because he couldn't."
Abbey nodded. "Smart man."
"Yes, ma'am."
"Sometimes."
Josh smiled slightly but stayed silent.
"Okay, Josh. What should we do?"
"My idea was to set them up on a date."
"Just one?"
"For now." Josh sighed. "And yeah, probably just the one. They deserve a little bit of fun, but there's still a conflict."
Abbey nodded. "I'll take care of it, I'll let you know what happens. And if I need your help, I know where to find you."
Josh smiled. "Thanks, ma'am." He left with the smile still on his face, his part finished.
