The Road to....Somewhere???

It Can't Be This Easy

I had no idea what I was going to be walking into.

Logan sent me a message telling me that Lindsey was on the phone with her. Then, next thing I knew, she is telling me Lindsey is in the parking lot. What the fuck?

After my talk with Dylan I was feeling so much better about the whole situation. Now, it's like I went right back to being pissed off. I know it's not Logan's fault that her ex was camped out in the parking lot of her work but knowing that fact didn't make me feel much better. Just the fact that something else to do with Lindsey was happening again made me angry as hell.

I messaged Logan and told her I would be there. I was on my way there now, and all these thoughts were invading my brain. What was I gonna do to Lindsey? Should I do anything at all? Should I just say fuck it, and leave Logan to find happiness with Lindsey?

She said she loved me, but all the lies were begining to taint my judgement where she was concerned. I began to wonder if maybe she was just using me for my money, and maybe to not be alone. Deep down I knew this was not the case though. I felt it when she looked at me, touched me, and told me she loved me. The pain I was feeling was just making me so mad that I wanted her to be the bad guy.

Logan had told me that Lindsey was parked by her car, so as I pulled in the parking lot I parked a few spaces away from it. I sent a text to Logan, letting her know I was here. There was only one car parked next to Logan's so that had to be Lindsey. It was getting dark outside so I couldn't see in the vehicle. I was debating on what I was gonna do about all this when I heard a tap on my window. I jumped a little, my nerves clearly on edge.

"Logan, what are you doing?" I asked, probably a little more harshly than necessary.

"I'm sorry. I don't know exactly what to do. I've never been in this kind of situation before. I wanted to talk to you before she saw me." The look on her face was one of pure fear. This look made every bad thought I had disappear. I didn't want her to be afraid. I knew at that moment I would do anything I could to protect her.

"Why don't we just leave? She doesn't know my vehicle and she hasn't seen you yet."

"I can't just leave. What if she goes in there and makes a scene? At the very worst I could lose my job. If nothing else I would lose the respect of my associates and I couldn't work effectively like that."

"I hadn't thought about that. I'm sorry. I am jusy trying to keep you safe." With that, she opened my door, stepped up on the side and wrapped her arms around me. I could feel her body shaking, and I just wanted to make it better. I pulled away from her, kissed her, and motioned for us to get out of the truck.

"What are we doing?" She asked me. I grabbed her hand and began walking over to what I assumed was Lindsey's car.

"We are gonna take care of this once and for all."

We reached the car and I began to knock on the window, harder than necessary. I had to jump back as the car door swung open. Then I saw her. Lindsey. She may be crazy but she also happened to be gorgeous. I faultered for a moment, thinking, me over her, really? I took a moment to look at Logan and I saw the fear and repulsion on her face while looking at Lindsey and any lingering questions I had about her and Lindsey, or us, were answered. I stepped in front of Logan slightly in a protective manner and fully faced Lindsey.

"What are you doing here?" I asked her.

"What do you mean what am I doing here? I'm here to see my girlfriend, who your hands happen to be on. What are you doing here?"

"She is not your girlfriend. She is nothing to you. She happens to be with me. We live together. Have a life together. If you don't leave her alone, we are gonna call the cops." Lindsey's face fell a little at my words.

"Baby, is that true? I thought you and I were gonna give it another go? I love you baby." She now seemed on the verge of tears. If she wasn't trying to take the very core of my happiness away from me, I might would feel bad for her.

"No Lindsey. I don't want to be with you. I am with Ashley now. I told you that. I love her. She is the only one I want." Logan's hand tightened around mine.

"You know what? One day you'll want me back and then it will be too late. Have fun until then."

Lindsey got back in her car and sped off.

It can't be this easy.
