"I'm sorry about what happened between us.” Ariel looked sad.

January lifted her chin.

"Let's just move forward.”

“You’d like that, wouldn't you?

“I didn't mean forget what happened between us, January.” Ariel licked his lips. "Let's start over.”

“Sure.”

“Please don't shut me out.”

His words got her attention and she looked him directly in the eyes. They were gorgeous, as usual. “I hear what you’re asking. But have you even tried to let me in?”

Ariel sat up straight in his chair. “Perhaps not.” He looked away. “I would really like you to accept the offer from this morning. I’ll give you some valuable experience and it will give us time to get to know each other.”

“In a work capacity?” January was surprised at her boldness, but she wanted to know what the expectations were.

"We'll just have to see. I am your boss.”

It wasn’t a clear answer. “Okay then."

"Well then, it’s settled."

"I guess so.”

“When will I start?”

“In about two weeks, unless Heather goes into labor early.”

She nodded.

Ariel steadied his eyes on hers. He began to talk slowly. “I feel as though we have a connection.” He sighed again. “But you have to try to see things through my eyes. I’m your boss and I don’t want you to feel like I’m taking advantage of you”

I thought I was an adult. January tried not to show her annoyance. “I don't think anyone could see things through your eyes, Mr. Cunningham. You’re the boss of a billion dollar company.”

Ariel opened his mouth, but held back.

January turned on her heels and left Ariel's office. She wanted so badly to believe what he’d said about them having a connection.

He plays with my emotions like a yo-yo. One minute I'm feeling high. The next minute I’m spinning down fast.

January wasn’t sure her heart could take the guessing game.
