“Soon, Lauren, very soon…she’s different from anybody I have ever been with in a relationship. She’s beautiful, intelligent, funny, romantic—”

“I get the picture,” she said, laughing. “I’m very happy for you. From the sounds of it, she’s perfect.”

“I think so.” Ryan added wistfully, “I just hope I don’t manage to screw it up somehow. It’s never mattered as much as it does this time.”

“I don’t think you have much to worry about. From everything you’ve told me, she’s been there when you needed her, which is more than Stacey ever was. Just relax and let it happen.”

“I’m trying. I’m just so damned afraid,” Ryan admitted quietly.

“Ryan,” Lauren started. She hesitated and then spoke in a firm voice. “Quit thinking so much. You have a lot to offer somebody.

It’s just a shame that the one time you really opened yourself up, it had to be to that bitch.”

Ryan laughed. “You never did like her. I should have taken that as a clue from the start.”

“Yeah, well…I need to go now, honey. Discuss it with Tobi and then give me a call. I’ll start the ball rolling at looking into things and get back to you as soon as I can.”

“Thanks, Lauren. I’ll talk to her tonight, and if it’s not too late, we’ll give you a call afterward.”

“Sounds good. I’ll chat with you later.”

Ryan hung up the phone, hopped up with newfound hope, and headed to the locker room.

Tobi hung up her lab coat and walked over to her chair, collapsing into it. She kicked off her shoes and groaned at the instant tingle of relief. The day had gone nonstop from the moment she walked in the door. Tobi couldn’t wait to get back to Ryan’s and take a nice, long bath in her large oval tub with massaging jet streams. After the break-in, they both decided it would be better to stay at Ryan’s house for a while.

Tobi thought Ryan looked so much better this morning. The circles under her eyes had faded, and aside from the bruising, her color was much better.
