"Huh?"

"I iine men would try and have their ith you on your desk, all day long" He turns into a driveway

What the hell?

I opensnarky and slam it shut That sounded decidedly sexual Suddenly uncole up and pull my skirt down

That's a weird thing to say, sort of passive aggressive sexiness

I stare out theat the rain as it pours down hard Maybe sleeping in my car was the safer option after all?

I stay silent and his eyes flick over to me "What?" he asks

"Nothing," I shrug,to hurt

"Well?" he proain

Oh , you idiot

"Jack"

His eyes glance over to me "Yes, Haley"

"First of all, it's Holly Get it right"

A trace of a smile crosses his face as if amused

"I've had a really, really, really bad day that started at 4 aht Now, if you don’t ht …to sleep If that’s not okay, or if so around in that head of yours, please drive me back to my car, because I'm not in the mood to have to justify my wardrobe choices to anyone, least of all you" I cross my arms in front of me "And for the record……I a sex on my desk" I tilt my chin to the sky in defiance "I don’t knohat happens here in Alaska, but that is not how corporate New York operates"

He rolls his lips as if trying to hide a smile "Got it"

We arrive at the top of the hill and a log cabin co rain It's lit up frohts The house isaround the entire outside I can see s out of a double chimney on the roof

"This is it," he says as he climbs out of the truck and slams the door shut behind him
