Chapter Six

The next day, Ash was sitting in bed visiting with Isaac and Gregg, giving them the whole humiliating blow down of his fight with Featherstone.

“Damn, I knew the guy could be cold, but I didn’t think that he could be that mean,” Gregg said.

Ash shrugged. “He was just telling me the truth. It was just harsh.”

“Harsh?” Isaac echoed. “That’s putting it mildly. He all but told you that you weren’t good enough for him or his rich family. That’s downright mean.”

Off to one side of the room, Scarlett began humming again. They all looked over to see her giving Ash a menacing glare. Ash shivered and glanced away. “I hate it when she does that.”

“How long has she been doing it?” Isaac said.

“Off and on the past week.”

“But I thought you and Scarlett were friends,” Gregg commented, still staring at her.

“We were, but that was before the attack. Since then, she hasn’t been the same. It’s like she snapped or something and now for some strange reason she’s fixated on me.” Another shiver went through Ash. God, but he was getting sick of getting those looks from her. He wondered if maybe he could ask them to move him someplace else or something. Maybe then she would forget about him.

“Have you told any of the staff about it?” Isaac asked.

“Tell them what? That Scarlett is giving me meanie butt looks? Yeah, that will go over real well. That’ll make me sound like the crazy one. Besides, it’s not like she’s going to do anything to me. She never leaves her bed.”

“Never, ever?” Gregg asked. “Not even to go to the bathroom?”

Ash sighed. “This is so not a conversation that I’m getting into with you.”

Gregg shrugged. “So, sue me, I was just wondering.”

Ash glanced back over and saw Scarlett still giving him the death stare. He wondered what he’d done to her to bring it on. As far as he knew, he’d been sticking to his side of the room, minding his own business. He had no beef with her.

“What are you going to do when you see the doc again?” Isaac asked.

“I’m going to be very mature and ignore him, of course,” Ash replied.

“I don’t think that route is going to help your cause any,” Gregg drawled.

“That’s just it, I don’t have a cause anymore. I’m done with him.”

Isaac made a dismissive wave of his hand. “You really don’t mean that.”

“Yes, I do,” Ash replied with dead certainty. “He’s made his point loud and clear. So, I’m moving on.”

“But you can’t give up,” Isaac said.

“I can and I have. I’m done with him. He can find his female Bobcat and go fuck himself.”

Isaac reached over and brushed Ash’s hair back from his face. “That doesn’t sound like the Ash I know, to give up so easily.”

“Maybe I’m sick of fighting. I have enough battles on my plate right now without adding another one.” Ash sighed.

He was getting tired even as he spoke. He’d just gone through yet another session
