CHAPTER ELEVEN

Grey went about her business at work and continued to enjoy her time with Boone. But the issue of the sports bar constantly weighed on her mind. She tried to let it go, but couldn’t. Boone had held a staff meeting and urged them to get better about not letting people drink too much, but even Boone had to admit it was easier said than done. But Boone was also determined to lead by example, which Grey felt was critical. And Boone had offered to be the one to cut someone off if she was there.

So Grey told herself to relax and go with it. She was just crazy about Boone, and outside of the bar issue, life was great. Although the bar was a pretty huge part of their relationship.

She continued her work with Phoebe, who was making great strides. Connie had even lined up some job interviews for her. Everything was going well. She had a few new clients, and Boone still came out every day to visit Phoebe. Grey loved that Boone was such a caring person. She truly cared about Phoebe and she truly cared about Grey. Grey did not doubt that at all.

She was working in her office when Boone walked in, looking harried.

“What’s up, babe?” Grey asked.

“Nothing. Just a rough lunch rush at the bar.”

“Want to talk about it?”

“I had to kick Tanner out again.”

“I’m sorry. But good for you for doing that.”

“I always worry that he’ll just find another bar, though.”

“And you figure you’re losing money then?” Grey said.

“What? No. That’s not it at all.”

“I hope not.”

“How could you even think that?”

“I don’t know. I just wonder.”

“No, I worry he’s just going to keep getting drunker elsewhere and getting more and more dangerous.”

“I hope that’s not the case.”

“So do I.” Boone paused for a moment. “How’s Phoebe today?”

“She’s great. I don’t know where you’ll find her right now.”

“Is she in a session?”

“No. I’d start in the common room.”

Grey watched Boone walk off and felt a weird sensation. Something wasn’t right. She couldn’t put her finger on it, but something just didn’t feel right.

When Boone stopped by her office on her way out, Grey mentioned it.

“Boone, is everything okay?”

“Things are fine. I just had a rough day is all.”

“And you blame me, don’t you?”

“How could I blame you?”

“I just feel like you do.”

“That’s just crazy. I don’t blame you.”

“I’ve complicated your business by being in your life.”

“Grey, you’ve done no such thing. We’re simply being more responsible now. There’s nothing wrong with that.”

Boone kissed her.

“I’ll see you tonight.”

Boone drove back to the bar, Grey’s words heavy on her mind. Did she blame Grey for being more responsible? Did she resent the implication that she wasn’t doing enough before? That was ridiculous. If Boone could help keep one woman from being abused, it was for the good. She felt good about laying down the law at The Boonies. After all, it was legally required. She knew it put her bartenders and wait staff in touchy situations, but for the most part, they were few and far between.
