Slamming the car door shut she hastily makes her entrance to their little quant two bedroom home. Shutting the slider door with such force it effectively created the perfect spider web. Anger hinged her heart. It was like saloon doors swinging wildly as the towns folk gathered in the square for a draw.
"How did you mannage to do this?" Logan slowly slides the door back and forth inspecting the damage.
"I apologize for the door."
Casey makes a point to emphasize on the door.
Though she really means it she can't help feeling a twinge of cheap satisfaction. How dare he use her need to make people happy as a weapon against their relationship. Making people happy is what she loves to do. "Why couldn't you just leave things the way they were?" Casey sets the groceries on the kitchen table.
Her question set Logan back a few pegs.
"What are you tt-talking about baby?" He stutters, as he does when he gets nervous, abandoning the door to close the distance between them she continues.
"Why did you want me to see a shrink? I was fine before I revealed you my past. I think it's you who can't handle what's happened." The look of utter surprise that now occupies his shocked face says everything she suspected. "It makes it hard to look at me in the same ways you had before you knew." It wasn't a question but a factual note.
Still frozen in place, no words to console his love, Casey raises a hand and jumps when he catches her by the wrist just before she makes contact.
"How can you say tt-that?" The look in his eyes is sheer devastation. As though she actually made contact.
"If you truly believe that then why are we here? Right here, right now?"
Instantly Casey knew she'd hurt him deeper than any knife could go.
"Baby...I-"
Caseys words trail off like the dying down of a wind storm. What could she possibly say to rectify her actions. Logan still had hold of her wrist. He looks down at it and flips her hand palm up. He traces the lines in her palm with his free hand. "Logan-"
"Shhh...." Logan places a finger lightly on her lips then leans in to kiss her.
