He wasn't sure Sloane had mentioned anything either, but he didn't know how much she was paying attention to the rumor mill these days either, considering she was a hot topic at present. The things he'd been asked at work were the only indication he had gotten and he'd shut them all down quickly. "What dance is up next?" Hopefully something not too complicated. He still wasn't very confident in his skills.
