your beer.”
“That was you?” Sara walked up behind me.
“What was me?”
“You were the one that saved that little girl last night?”
“Yeah.”
“I was the doctor who checked her out when they brought her in. She talked about you, but I didn’t make the connection.”
Hanna handed me my beer, and I threw some cash on the bar.
“I was just doing my job,” I said as I walked away.
“Listen, Mason. I’m sorry, okay? I’m sure you’re not used to being told no.”
“Actually, I’m not.” I turned around and faced her.
“It’s just I’m not looking for anything.”
“Okay. I’m not either.”
“Please.” She laughed. “You wanted to buy me a drink hoping we’d have sex by the time the evening ended. I know how guys like you think.”
“Guys like me. You don’t even know me, Dr. Davis. You’re just assuming things in that pretty little head of yours.”
“I don’t need to know you. I can tell just by looking at you and your body language, Mr. Wolfe.”
“Is that so?” I spoke in a harsh tone for I was fed up.
“Yeah, it is so,” she shouted. “You’re overly confident and you think every woman who looks your way wants you.”
I stood there with narrowed eyes in disbelief that I was even listening to what she had to say.
“They usually do.” I raised my brow.
She rolled her eyes and shook her head. “Well, I don’t. Okay?”
“Fine!” I shouted. “I don’t care. Like I said, you don’t even know me. You know what? I think you’re a little psycho.”
“Good. Then stay away from me.”
“Trust me. I will.”
“Good.” She shouted as she turned and walked away.
“Good!” I yelled.
I was furious as I left Rudy’s and headed back to Nathan’s. Could my life get any worse? I’d had enough of everything. First the fire, then my mother’s episode, and now Dr. Sara Davis. Jesus Christ. I just wanted to go home and go to bed.
The moment I walked through the door, I saw Nathan and Allison sitting on the couch in the living room.
“Where’s Mom?” I asked.
“She’s upstairs sleeping.”
“Is she feeling okay?”
“Yeah. She’s fine,” Allison spoke. “I think she’s really depressed over Tommy, though.”
“Did she say why she broke up with him?”
“Not yet.” Nathan sighed. “She doesn’t want to talk about it. Everything okay at the fire station?”
“I didn’t make it there. I had a little run in with Dr. Sara Davis after you and Elijah left. That woman is a total psycho.”
“Ah, another psycho chick.” Allison smiled.
“What happened?” Nathan asked.
“I don’t want to talk about it. I’m heading to bed. Good night, you two.”
“Night, bro. Sleep tight.”
“Night, Mason. Don’t give psycho chick another thought.”
“I don’t plan on it.”

Sara
I mumbled all the way to the table where the girls sat. How dare he call me a psycho. He’s the psycho one. Oh my God, why was I letting that man get under my skin.
“Hey. I’m going to go home. It was a long shift and I’m tired.”
“Are you sure you can’t stay for one more drink?” Corinne asked.
“I’m sure. Thanks for inviting me to come along. Let’s do this again.” I gave a soft smile.
“We hang out here a lot, so don’t worry. You’ll be back. I’ll see you at work,” Corinne spoke.
I took a cab back to my Airbnb and started the water for a bath. After I twisted up my hair, I removed the bubble bar I’d bought from Lush and crumbled it under the running stream of water. Stepping in the tub, I let out a deep breath as I slid down into the hot bubbly water.
I’d been here a week and still didn’t have any luck finding an apartment I liked or wanted to call home. I needed to find something ASAP before my contract with the owners of the Airbnb was up because they already had it rented out to someone else. I honestly didn’t think I’d have this much trouble finding a place. It had to be the perfect apartment for I wasn’t planning on moving again until I could afford a townhome. Before I moved to New York permanently, I had been looking at apartments and came to the city on my days off from the hospital to tour them. Nothing grabbed my attention except one, and unfortunately, there was a waiting list. I knew the moment I stepped inside; it was where I belonged. It felt right and very cozy. Even though the rent was higher than I wanted to pay, the best part was, every apartment in the building came fully
