He wouldn’t be surprised if he got called into work. It would be an overtime shift, but the last thing he wanted to do right now was find himself there. His hand and leg were sore from yesterday’s fall. He’d be all right, but it would be an annoyance that he would have to ignore in order to do his job—and anytime something like this happened, he always had a sinking fear that it could hinder his attempt to save someone’s life. He hated the thought of letting someone else down thanks to his own weakness.
As he drove toward the ranch, his mind wandered to his other weakness—Whitney. He couldn’t get her out of his thoughts. She didn’t want to be with him; she had made that clear. Yet, when he was around her, there was just some...a spark. Something seemed to buzz between them, and from the look in her eyes, she couldn’t ignore the feeling, either.
He just had to be around her, even if it wasn’t as anything more than a friend. He was simply drawn to her. Maybe it would turn into something more than it was, and maybe it wouldn’t, but at the very least he could have her in his life.
Whitney really was one of the most confusing women he’d ever met. One minute she seemed open to the world and a future, and the next it was like a curtain fell over her and she slipped back into the shadows of her thoughts and closed him out. Colter understood it. He had seen the look a thousand times with his brother Waylon. It was the look that came with loss and pain.
She had never really talked about her life, but she didn’t need to tell him in order for him to understand that she had some baggage. Everyone had a past. Though he tried hard to hide from his, enveloping it with humor and lightheartedness, it didn’t hurt any less when he pressed too hard against it. If she would only talk to him, maybe they could work through it together.
