Gavin considered his friends words for several seconds, before he nodded.  Landon did make a fair amount of sense.  This wasn't something that could be jumped into, he had known that, but he hadn't thought that there was any question about Claire liking Landon.  However, maybe that didn't translate, yet, into attraction of a more carnal nature.<br/><br/>"I suppose that makes sense.  Just seemed obvious to me, but you're right.  We can always wave it off as you just being lonely if she gets offended.  I'll say something along the lines of 'I'll talk to you' if she gets upset.  But, I don't think she will."<br/><br/>He laughed as he glanced over his friend.  Though the man carried himself slightly different, slightly more guarded, it was easy to see that Landon was an attractive man with a center of strength.  "Unless you're blind, you've already seen the few chicks looking over you, undressing you already."<br/><br/>He chuckled again.  "As if Claire would have to work to get you a date.  You're still as much a ladykiller as you ever were."<br/><br/>He glanced around, then back the way they had been walking.  "Well...any other concerns before we head back?  Not like we can talk about our plans around her, not if we're going to spring it on her."<br/><br/>Something did occur to Gavin, but he pushed it back in his mind.  There was no need to worry.  Landon wouldn't seduce Claire without him, not all the way.  He wouldn't take her without Gavin there.  The man was reliable.
