and Two, I really DO want that position from what I've heard so far..
Tell them that.
"From what I have heard of it, I am really interested in this position. I'd really like the opportunity to talk to you about this opportunity as soon as possible. However, a previous interview has indicated they may be getting me an offer as soon as the end of this week. Just as I'm sure you wouldn't want to be asked to wait a week from a prospective employer, I don't feel it is appropriate to ask them to wait a week. Is there any way we can move this forward?"
You'll have to accept that the answer may be "no" in which case you might have to walk away from Shiny job in favor of OTT.
These are the hard decisions that makes being a grown up suck.
