Blair felt all the eyes in the room on her as she walked over to Paula. “Lets compare notes.

Stark smiled, but she looked worried. “Everythings fine, nobodys hurt, and it was just a little unexpected detour. Does that fit with your version?

“Pretty much. Did Renée sound okay?

“She sounded pumped. Stark laughed briefly. “Theres a reason she went into the FBI and I went into the Secret Service. She wants to chase bad guys, clean up the streets, strike a blow for justice. Me, I want to see that those responsible for justice stay safe. I dont need the rush like she does.

Blair squeezed Paulas shoulder. “Shes no cowboy. Neither is Cam. But I know what you mean. I got the same story you did, pretty much. Cam did tell me that Renée was okay.

“Renée told me the commander was okay too.

“Then I guess we can assume theyre both walking and talking. Blair closed her eyes for a second. “You should take a break now. Youve been on duty all day.

Paula glanced across the room at Valerie, who stood apart from Blairs friends talking on her cell phone. “Im too keyed up to sleep right now.

“Ive got an empty guest room in my quarters, Dana offered.

“Now thats a lovely invitation, Diane said playfully, “but Im going to have to turn it down. She raised an eyebrow in Emorys direction. “Why dont you take her up on it?

“I think its a good idea, Blair said, when Emory didnt answer. “Were all here until at least tomorrow, so everyone might as well be comfortable.

Emory shrugged, avoiding Danas gaze. “Sure, makes sense. She hugged Blair and whispered, “Im so glad shes okay.

Blair returned the embrace. “So am I. Thanks for being here. And you are definitely not going back to Boston now.

“I surrender. Emory laughed. “One of the many advantages of living with my mother is when Im traveling and forget something, she can send it to me. Ill have her ship what I need out to the resort. That way, when everyones ready to leave, I can go with you.

“Excellent, Blair and Diane said simultaneously. Dana, Blair noticed, had a particularly pleased glint in her eye.
