“Are you in any pain?” the nurse asked.

“No,” Andrew said.

“Nauseous?”

“No.”

“Good. The radiology technician should be up to take you for a PET scan soon.”

“How long does that take?” Jeni asked.

“About two hours.” The nurse recorded Andrew’s vital signs in the computer mounted against the wall, asked him if he needed anything, and left. Not before flashing Logan a smile first though.

Naturally.

What was it about this guy that made him so irresistible? Jeni didn’t get it.

Okay fine, she did. But she wished she didn’t.

Also, he never flirted with her like that.

Whoa, where did that come from?She didn’t want Logan to flirt with her. Did she?

It had been more than two years since the divorce, and so far, she’d had no problem sticking to her new plan to stay away from anything relationship-related. No one had even begun to tempt her otherwise.

Until now, it seemed. Which only pissed her off.

Andrew turned his head looked at her. “Guess you’ll be on your own to intercept the crew when they arrive.”

Jeni squared her shoulders. “Don’t worry, I got this.”

“I can help,” Logan offered. “I’m looking forward to meeting your family.”

She frowned and cast him a skeptical eye. “You can leave when they take Andrew for the scan.”

Logan’s smile faded, and for a brief moment, she felt a tinge of guilt.

Andrew looked at Logan. “Can you give us a minute?”

Logan nodded, a small pinch between his eyebrows, and left.

“Why are you being so rude?” Andrew slid a hand through his brown hair.

Jeni balked. “I’m not. This is a family thing. He doesn’t need to keep hanging around, flirting with the nurses and distracting them from your care. It would be best if he just gave us some space right now.”

“Us or you? I don’t need space. He’s good company, and it’s nice to have him here. He’s been through this with someone close to him, and he knows what to expect. I don’t know how long this road is going to be, but either way, Logan’s going to be in the car. You need to get on board with that, and the sooner the better. Your attitude isn’t helping.”

She pushed past her immediate desire to defend herself. “Who did he go through this with?”

“Someone in his family. What does it matter?” Andrew asked.

Jeni sighed and rubbed her temples with both hands.

“What is it with you? Everyone loves Logan.”

“Women especially.”

Andrew cocked his head to the side. “Are you jealous?”
