She forced herself to stare into his face, even though it was hard.

“We’re all good, understand?”

“We are?”

“Yep.”

“You’re not gonna stay mad at me?” she whispered.

“Nope. We’re all good.”

She wasn’t so sure. She chewed at her lip. “I wasn’t nice, though.”

“And you said sorry. Next time, though, you obey the rules. Understand?”

“Yes, I understand.”

“That’s a good girl.” Tobias got to his feet and gave the ice pack to Jenner. “Keep that on her leg. Gotta go check security.”

She stared after him as he left the room. Immy still felt a bit off about everything that had happened. She wasn’t sure why.

Maybe because she had difficulty letting go when she was in the wrong. Because she hated upsetting other people and it ate away at her.

“You scared him,” Jenner said as he placed her on the bed and then put the ice pack over her leg.

“You think so?”

“Yeah, I definitely think so. He was scared when you fainted on him. Because he cares about you.”

“We’ve become friends.”

Jenner hummed.

What did that mean? Did he think Tobias cared about her more than that?

That was crazy. Right?

“I don’t like that you fainted. We need to check your blood pressure.”

“I’m fine. Really. And the ice pack isn’t necessary. It’s just a bruise.” She reached for the ice pack to take it off and he brushed her hands away.

“No. Leave it.”

Immy narrowed her gaze at him. “You’re both overreacting.”

“Immy, leave it. For me. I’m worried about you.”

Well, heck.

Now she couldn’t move it. “You shouldn’t worry about me. I’m good.”

“Baby, all I do is worry about you,” he said quietly as he grabbed the blood pressure monitor out of the bedside drawer.

Shoot.

Guilt flooded her.

“I’m so sorry. I’ll try to be less of a burden.”
