until we get to her rental car. “Can I have the keys please? Ash took his truck,” I say, finally letting go of her hand.
“Sure,” she says, taking a key out of her pocket and handing it to me. I open her door and let her in before walking to the other side and getting in.
“I really don’t think we should find them. I think right now Ash is probably the only person she needs. We can go by there later tonight,” I say, hoping she agrees.
“Okay,” she says quietly. I drive straight to my house and pull in my driveway.
“Since we didn’t get to eat, can I make you some dinner? It can be your going away meal. Are you still leaving tomorrow?” I ask.
“I’m supposed to leave tomorrow. I don’t know what to do, maybe I should just wait and check on Callie before making a decision,” she says, opening her door to get out and go inside.
After I have cooked an amazing supper, at least in my opinion it was, we curl up on the couch to watch a movie. Leighton has been extremely quiet tonight and I don’t know if it’s because of what happened earlier with Callie or if it’s what happened between the two of us last night. I’m really hoping it’s not last night.
“Can I ask you a question?” Leighton asks, while flipping through movies on Netflix.
“Of course,” I say.
“I told you a lot of stuff last night about my sister and you know who. Can you give me something? Why are you still single at thirty? Do you date a lot? I mean, I know you have been with me most every night for the past month, but is there someone?” Is she seriously asking me if I have a girlfriend?
“That’s two questions,” I say, smiling at her. She just stares back at me. “I haven’t had a serious girlfriend in a very long time. Seven years to be exact. I was actually in Florida working on a case when I met this what I thought was an amazing girl. We dated about six months. She seemed very normal and she was a lot of fun. We would hang out at the beach all of the time. She wasn’t clingy, needy or anything I can’t stand. About six months into it, things started changing. She would call at least five times a day just to talk while I was trying to work. Then she started driving by my house whenever I wasn’t with her. This fun normal girl had turned into a clingy needy girl overnight. Some other stuff happened and I couldn’t do it anymore. I tried to break up with her, but she never got the hint. She would keep calling and coming by. Like I said last night I ended up having to change my cell number and get a restraining order and will probably never live that one down. A cop getting a restraining order on a girl,” I say, laughing, knowing that is exactly what she said last night. “I moved back home soon after and thankfully haven’t heard from her since. I guess I have been avoiding most women ever since. I can’t do the clingy needy thing. I need someone who can trust me,” I say.
“I understand that. Trust is definitely essential. It’s kind of hard to trust anyone after you get screwed over,” she says, sounding really sad.
“How about we find a funny movie, watch it and then we can call and check on Callie. How does that sound” I ask, trying to change the subject.
“That sounds almost perfect,” she says, smiling. I can’t stop myself when I lean in to kiss her this time. I can’t believe I have finally met someone I want to be with and she is leaving tomorrow.

“I need to use the bathroom. I’ll be right back,” I say, when the movie is over. “We can watch another if you want,” I say, hoping he agrees. I am definitely not ready to call it a night especially if I’m leaving tomorrow.
“That sounds great, I’ll see what I can find,” Brody says, grabbing the remote.
I go into the bathroom and pull my phone out. I call a number I have had in my phone for a long time, but never dialed. Clay. He and Callie are really close. I have never
