Chapter Eighteen

Ashton walks into Captain Hunt’s office and sets a piece of paper down in front of him over top of a report he was reading. “Doctor cleared me. I’m back.”

“You’re supposed to be off for two weeks. It’s been less than one.” He lifts the doctor’s note to read it. “Your ribs haven’t fully healed. You still in any pain?”

“No. Here.” She puts her plane tickets and hotel reservation information down on the desk. “It’s non-refundable. Go home early and pack.”

“What is this?” He opens the folder and his eyes get big. “This is a trip to Hawaii.” He looks up with concern creasing the corners of his eyes. “What happened with DeLuna?”

“I don’t need it anymore. Can you use it or should I pass it to someone else?”

“Hyland, if you’re going through something…”

“We’re not doing this. I’m cleared for work and I’m going to work. I’ve been going insane sitting at home even before this. With all due respect, Sir, please drop it.”

“Understood. I’ll call Kim and see if we can accept the trip on such short notice. I’m sure she’ll be thrilled. I can pay you back for…”

“Not necessary. Do me the favor of telling Decker he’s off of my shift.”

“Done. Welcome back, Lieutenant.”

“Thank you, Sir.”

She leaves his office and strides down the hall to her own office. As she opens the door and sees her desk, she’s flooded with a mixture of relief, pain, longing, and frustration. It was only a few weeks ago she made love to Erin on that desk. She closes the door and takes a seat on the couch, just staring at the desk and the memory.

As she’s about to stand up and log into the database to check her email and the report log to see what she missed, her cellphone vibrates in her pocket.
