It ached for her. I didn’t like seeing her hurt, at all. Both Ryan and I wanted to go kick some ass tonight but she asked us not to; still, I’m not making any promises that it won’t happen if I run into him. We are outside until just after midnight. Ryan leaves and Ansley stays around. We talk a bit longer. She asks what’s happening with my dad’s business. She’s always concerned that we’ll move to some mansion far away now that he’s making serious money. “I think it’s growing every day. At dinner he talks to mom about the larger companies that are signing on with him.” “That’s awesome.” “It only means he’ll be home even less than he is now. But I’m used to it, so no biggie.” We are sitting across from each other. I can see the concern in her eyes, as the fire lights the area between us. “So, are you really upset about Riley or what?” “Yeah, I thought it was going to be the one relationship that worked out longer than a couple months. I swear I have stupid written on my forehead.”
