Carly sat at in the on-call room. Dazed. Confused. Did she have feelings for him, or was it just the drugs coursing through her blood, her heart?

The only times she has felt safe in the last seventeen years were when she was with Bo or him. Sarcastic surfer. Devoted doctor. Fantastic father.

He was her baby girl's father. A passionate one-night stand created her daughter, her joy. He was so angry at her when she finally spilled her guts, her heart to him about Melanie. But, he always loved their daughter.

Always.

Daniel was always there for her in his own way. Bo may have been her hero, helping her up and holding her. But, would Daniel be her savior?

He was concerned about her. Jennifer was, too. But, she could see what was happening between her two best friends. There was this pull, strings intertwining between their hearts. Did she really want to be the second best lover again? Second best is the same as last.

Carly looked at the wall at the painting of sunflowers. Yellow. Mellow. Rest and relaxation. Peaceful and powerless. She wanted to swim in the yellow fields of flowers, of love. Instead, she was wading in the dangerous desires that would surely drown her. She'd bleed herself dry for those she loved. She'd bleed yellow for them all. Melanie. Nicholas. Jennifer.

And, him.

The end.
