As they were leaving the restaurant, Logan’s cell phone rang. He helped Sam into the car and shut her door behind her. He was still on the phone when he came around to get in.

“I totally understand, Xavier. I’ll be on the next flight out.” Logan replied and then hit the button to end the call.

“I’m guessing that was work.”

“Yep. I have to go to California. There seems to be an issue with the vendor we chose for your project. They want to meet with me to discuss the contract. Xavier didn’t go into much detail, but I didn’t expect he would. I need to call Deanna.”

Sam sat quietly as Logan talked to his admin, giving her the information she needed to book his flight and hotel. Apparently Deanna was online taking care of it as they spoke because Logan sat quietly with the phone held to his ear as he drove back toward her apartment.

When they pulled into the complex parking lot, Sam climbed out of the car and walked around to the front, waiting patiently for him to finish his call. She felt the disappointment bubble up inside of her, but she understood he needed to go. She wouldn’t expect him to try to stop her if the tables were turned, so she knew she wouldn’t say a word to him about how she wished the night wouldn’t end.

“I’m sorry, baby.” Logan said as he walked toward her.

“Don’t be sorry. I wouldn’t be if I had to go. It’s just the way things are. I’ll be here when you get back so go and take care of business. After all, this is apparently important to me, as well. It is my project.”

Logan watched her, his expression showing his acceptance of her statement. She was right, it was her project. “Go with me.”

“What?” Sam couldn’t hide the shock.

“Go with me. You might be able to convince them there is no room for negotiation on this deal.”

“I don’t think you need me to convince them. You didn’t make it this far without the ability to diffuse these types of situations.”

“I’m quite confident in my ability to change their minds, but I would love to sit back and watch you work them over. Go with me, baby.”

Sam really wanted to take him up on his offer, but she didn’t want to put him in a position like that. If she were anyone else, he wouldn’t be asking her to go along. He didn’t need her there, and she had a lot of things that would need to be taken care of in the office on Monday anyway.

“Not this time. It isn’t something you would normally do, and I don’t want to give Xavier a reason to question our relationship. Remember, I’m still new here. I’m not ready to make any waves just yet.”

Logan knew she was right. He didn’t doubt she could get the vendor to back down from their attempt at negotiations now that they knew how critical the project actually was, but that wasn’t the reason he wanted her there.
