Carter wants Emma's help to counsel him out of being a psychopath, and for him to gain his emotions back. Emma wants to heal her emotional scars and prepare to enter future romantic relationships. Their plan is to "date" so that Carter can start to try and feel romantically and be more open with her, and so that she can start to see what a real, healthy relationship is like. Despite her strict rules on not mixing her business life with her personal, the two can't help but feel drawn to each other. Can Emma overcome her past, and learn to be in a loving relationship, and allow a man to romantically touch her? Can Carter get back all of the emotions he thought he'd lost, and start to love again?

"Did you need a ride home? I can take you."
"Oh no that's alright. I'm just gonna get an Uber."
"Aurora please, it's the middle of the night. Let me drive you home." He steps forward, closing the gap between us, I look up to his gaze.
"Thanks, but I'll be fine. Enjoy the rest of your night."
His hand reaches out connecting with my arm again.
"I would just prefer it, knowing your safe if I dropped you home." His hand trails down the length of my arm and he starts toying with my fingers. My breath hitches in my throat. I'm sure an innocent drive home will be fine right?
