Having Ian in my life has been better than I thought it would be. Spending time with him lifts the weight of the world off my shoulders for a little while, and I just have fun. He gets me and appreciates me for who I am without me having to put on any pretenses.

I don’t have to be responsible or tough or in charge of anything. I just can relax and have conversations with Ian without judgment. Over the past week, we’ve spent every spare moment together, getting to know each other intellectually, emotionally, and physically. The physical part is amazing because he’s so eager to learn and wants desperately to please me. But even more than that is getting to know him emotionally. Hearing about the pain he went through when he lost his mom, and the way he acted out to hurt Rod when he found out Tanner was his natural birth father, reminds me that I’m not alone in the pain I’ve suffered in my life.

Ian is in a great place right now, and he’s helping me to get in a great place too. At least when we’re together.

Unfortunately, we can’t be together every minute of every day.

And that’s when things fall apart. Shit at The Vault is getting harder and harder to deal with on my own. I just got off the phone with Rainier, a friend of ours who is into all that cyber security shit, and he just intercepted a phone call about Brady Andrews. The man was found dead this morning. It appears to be natural causes and is not being ruled as foul play, but my suspicions about Cayson Dixon seem to be founded in some truth.

Johnny and Tanner have given me strict instructions to not approach Cayson for any reason. I’m expected to carry on with business as usual while they deal with that situation. Which is fine with me. I’m more than happy to step aside because I’ve got my own shit to deal with.

The lost money is still unaccounted for, and I still can’t find any explanations as to what’s happening to it. I came in at 4 AM this morning, hours after we’d closed down last night, and installed some hidden cameras in the lobby and underneath the front counter.

I have no idea what’s happening or how, but I’m hoping whatever it is it’s taking place in the lobby. If it’s happening in the cloud or at the bank level, I’ll need to call Rainier to assist with that. But I’m giving myself forty-eight more hours to figure this out on my own before I call in reinforcements.
