It had been a stressful afternoon for Kelsey as she replayed the ugly scene over and over in her mind. She managed to keep busy cleaning and tried a new recipe for chicken broccoli casserole. One part of her wished Ty would hurry up and come home, and the other dreaded his reaction to what happened in the diner. She'd had no doubt that Shelly would find a way to make her look bad, and she just hoped Ty knew her well enough by now that he would not believe Shelly's lies.

The tall man who walked through the door looked tired and Kelsey waited for him to hang up his jacket before she inched closer. Ty smiled and pulled her into his arms, kissing the top of her head before tipping her chin up and claiming her lips.

"Something smells good," he sighed, sniffing the air.

"Are you hungry?" Kelsey asked, resting her head on his chest and sighing in relief.

"I'm starving," he admitted, putting his hands on her shoulders and backing up a step. "By the time I got to my lunch this afternoon it was stone cold and I had to throw it out, but we'll talk about that later, Sweet Pea. Right now I need to wash up. Will you make me a drink?"

"Of course," Kelsey replied, heading to the bar in the family room while Ty used the downstairs powder room.

When he joined her, she pushed him gently into a chair and handed him his neat whiskey.

Kelsey moved to sit in the matching chair, but he snagged her hand and pulled her onto his lap. Cuddling close, she fiddled with the buttons on his shirt until he trapped her nervous fingers.

"You know that you don't have anything to worry about, right?" he asked gently.

"What do you mean?" she replied, trying to avoid the horrible thoughts that had plagued her all afternoon.

"Kelsey, I spoke with Marcus and he told me everything."

"And you're not mad?"

"I not happy about it, but I don't blame you or Sue, however much I'd like to take a stick to that redheaded terror. I know she was just trying to protect you, and in a way, us. At first I was furious after listening to Shelly's version, but after talking with Marcus I saw things much more clearly. She has been making some subtle and not-so-subtle passes at me, but I've had other things on my mind, mainly you," he smiled, picking up her hand and kissing the back. "I guess I tried to ignore her most of the time, but I can't ignore this. I will never be able to just stand back and watch somebody hurt you, baby," he whispered, pulling her close.

Ty felt her shoulders shaking and sat her up on his lap. Her beautiful blue eyes were filled with tears that quietly spilled down her cheeks.

"Why are you crying?" he asked, confused.

"I… I was just so scared," she hiccupped, wiping her cheeks on her sleeve. "I thought maybe you wouldn't want me anymore.
