Lost in her own thoughts and indecision she stared out the window blankly. When they returned to her room she would phone her friend and ask her what to do. Alex was always willing to give her advice on love. Especially since it had been Jordan's scheming mind that had brought her best friend and a guy friend together, which was now her husband. Jordan smiled at the memory of her best friend threatening her with pay back for handing this guy her phone number. "What are you thinking about?" Jordan turned a startled gaze toward Andy. "What?" She asked utterly confused. "I just wondered what you were thinking about that would cause you to smile like that." He stated, looking over at her quickly before returning his gaze to the road. She smiled at him and answered softly "I was thinking of my friend and how she would be on the next flight if she knew what was going on." "I take it you haven't said anything about any of this to her." "No!" Jordan stated firmly. "If this man had my husband killed I certainly don't want him going after what is left of my family." "What do you mean?" Andy shot a look at Jordan that told her that she had better start from the beginning. Jordan sighed as they pulled over on the side of the road. Andy put the car in park and turned to face her. "How can I help you, if I don't know what is going on?" The concern in his voice brought back her every reason to give him a chance. "Later please!" She pleaded. Her sapphire eyes were shining with unspoken emotion. Andy felt a lurch in his chest. This woman was certainly hard to resist and even harder to figure out.

Five minutes later they pulled up to the hotel. Andy parked close to the door and got out to help Jordan up the elevator and into the room. Striping off the torn bloody clothing she hobbled to her suitcase for a nightgown. Exhausted she climbed into bed and was already deep asleep before Andy left to collect his bag of clothes and move his car. He grabbed the room key and double checked the door before going back downstairs stopping the front desk. He gave strict orders that Jordan was not to be disturbed by anyone and if there was a visitor, for the staff to notify them immediately. He took the prescription the doctor had written out with her release papers which he had to sign. The nurse said Jordan had been released in the computer but her paperwork had not been completed. That's when Andy knew something had gone wrong. He had quickly signed all the necessary papers and went in search of Jordan. He shuddered at the memory of seeing Jordan with a knife coming at her. Pushing the thoughts out of his mind he drove to the drug store a few blocks over to have it filled.
