Secrets Part Eight - Thinking
She could only do so many nice things a week.
"I didn't know you cared that much about sheriff Carter."
Well of course she knew. She wasn't an invalid.
And she was fairly certain she would have known even if she was.
It really was obvious.
Hell, she'd only been there two weeks.
But it was really obvious.
She'd noticed it the moment she'd met them. Imagine her surprise when she found out Stark had proposed to Blake (but she wasn't surprised when the woman said yes, he wasn't all that bad to look at). She had been quite sure that the Sheriff and Stark were something more than enemies… though maybe less than friends.
Seriously, why else would they flirt like they did?
Of course, it wasn't any of her business.
…
Of course it was her business!
But she'd found that the townspeople didn't like it when she interfered with everyday life.
So she would leave it be.
Besides, she probably wouldn't have done anything anyway.
She could only do so many nice things a week. And she'd just about reached her quota. And what she did next would no doubt put her in a week's debt.
And she was fairly certain there were already a few people working on the present problem.
And she knew they had a hell of a task ahead of them.
But they would succeed. Eventually.
Because she knew for a fact that there was something more than anger between the two men.
"I didn't know you cared that much about sheriff Carter."
It only encouraged her thoughts when he didn't respond to the accusation.
Wishing everyone a Happy ChristmaChanuKwanzakah or whatever it is you celebrate. If you don't celebrate anything, Happy Thursday.
All I want for christmas is a million reviews (Hint hint).
