She made her way into her apartment, tossed her purse and her phone on the bar and went into her room It was at that moment that the black veil of depression hit her like a brick wall She barely ed to crawl into her bed and curl up with her pillow before the dah her heart was literally breaking in her chest As she continued to sob uncontrollably, she forced all thoughts froood cry never hurt anyone, and Saht it Pain pierced her so fiercely that she was forced to close her eyes Maybe she could go to sleep, and when she woke, this would all be a bad dreaest fool on earth

She had an McCoy ease his way into her heart and shatter it

A few hours later, hoping he’d given her enough space as Alex had suggested, Logan atte it off had been one of the hardest things he had ever done

He didn’t want to let the situation get out of control His natural desire to fix things was strong, and this was one of those things he felt he needed to fix Right now

His expectations weren’t high, so he hoped that once the chance to explain presented itself, Sas were common, especially when only part of the conversation was overheard, and ultiet back hohtest hint, that he was being set up to see Heather again, he would have never agreed to go out there

If nothing else, he needed toXTX The company couldn’t afford to lose her now

“Sonuvabitch” He almost screamed the curse, as Sae What could he say? I’irlfriend and that you overheard a conversation where I was ad to it

That sounded stupid even to his own ears

No, he needed to see Sa to hiotten so out of control?

Stu he had expected, or so he thought Falling in love with her had been even farther down the list, yet here he was –trying to figure out what he could do to fix so that he wasn’t sure how to fix Wasn’t even sure why it was broken

The logical part of his brain told hih fiercely guarded, Sa shit from anyone She was supposed to call him on it Have it out with him Hell, hold his on display for the world to see She never would have wanted Alex or Deanna to figure out as going on, but her feelings had been too easily seen

To think he’d been trying to coet her to feel so those well-built walls she’d erected over the years wasn’t supposed to result in this

While he wasn’t looking, orserious had developed between the on a much deeper level than he ever dreamed and that scared hi Sam hat really scared hian had returned to his desk to find Deanna staring at hier His calendar had been cleared like he’d instructed, leaving his that he had been putting off

Little good the extra ti but consoling Sa her to understand he didn’t care about Heather any longer He did care about Sam

The problem was that he didn’t kno to express that to her without sounding as though he were trying to save face At this point, that is what it would sound like regardless

Leaving the office at this point to go after her wouldn’t work Glancing at the clock, he noted it was only two His phone rang, al that the caller was none other than his boss, Xavier Thoan knew his afternoon plans had just been thwarted Other than to get details on the California trip, what could Xavier be calling hian said, trying his best to sound professional

“It’s going well And you?”

“Not too bad Just got back into Dallas this htened out with At Last”

“I heard Why don’t you stop by my office for a few minutes?”
