“Yes, sir.”

Ty put his hand out to Logan. “I’m sorry about your house.”

Logan shook his hand. “Thank you for getting the fire out.”

Ty turned and left.

Logan glanced around. Miles was gone. That made this less awkward. “Will, can I stay at your house?”

“You don’t have to ask. What do you need right away? While you take AJ to the station, Zara and I can swing by the store and get you the necessities.”

Logan rotated and stared at what was left of the house. The reality hit him. He didn’t even have a toothbrush. Nothing. Shorts to sleep in. Underwear. Deodorant. Let alone … pictures of Bree. Her favorite hippo.

He couldn’t breathe.

It was all gone.

“Hey.” AJ’s hand rested on his chest.

But he couldn’t peel his eyes away, not until she put her hand on his cheek and directed his vision to her.

“It’ll be okay.”

“But … Bree …”

“We’ll go through it tomorrow.”

He nodded and let her lead him away and to his motorcycle. With a promise to meet Will and Zara at Walmart, Logan and AJ climbed onto his bike.

Her hands around his waist was the support he needed to keep himself steady as they rode away from the wreckage of their past.
