The day continues and I don't see him again until late in the afternoon. He comes out of his office and stands talking animatedly with Alice for a while.
I discreetly watch their interaction and realize something. He seems perfectly happy to chat and laugh with her, and I don't know if it has always been that way or if it is just a bi-product of his good mood.
My mind scans recent interactions he's had with most of the people in our team, and in our department, and I'm alarmed when it hits me.
It really is only me.
As always, I'd love to know what you're thinking. Hit that button!
For those of you who follow my story, 'It All', I updated today (my time at least) with Chapter 11. I know it's been a while, but I'm back with a vengeance. The tides are definitely turning. Go have a read and let me know how you find it. Link on my profile.
Disclaimer: My only claim is to this plot. This story is rated M. It has adult themes, including M/M slash.
