“We’re not at work, Kate. You can’t boss me around.”
“Watch me.”
A muscle clicked in his jaw. “Don’t shut me out.”
“If you won’t leave, I will.” She pushed past him.
His arm sprang out to stop her. When she tried to go around it, he pulled her in, wrapping his arm around her. Her back rested snugly against his chest and his chin braced the top of her head. “Kate, listen a minute. I can—”
“No, you can’t. You can’t do anything to help me. You can’t fix it. Now let me go!”
With equal reluctance and frustration, he did. She stared him down. “Don’t ever do that again.”
He marched off, leaving her confused and upset. She had wanted him to leave her alone, so why did she ache to rush back into his arms and stay there forever?
She didn’t need this, this growing dependency on people.
Especially not him.
