foot hunks of manliness. Not a bad way to go! WTH?Clearly, my foxy self is only thinking of her reproductive organ!
    It feels like forever, but finally, I feel a little bit of the weight lift off of me. I can hear Uncle Jack talking to LT, footsteps leaving the garage, and sirens in the background. Next, I feel Cody’s strong arms around me, pulling me toward him. Seconds later, Cody taps his earpiece mouthing ‘all clear’ to me.
    “You okay, love? I didn’t mean to slam into you that hard. I needed to cover you. Sorry,” He says as he run his hands all over me, checking for injuries.
    “It’s okay. If you were covering me, why did LT jump, too? I couldn’t breathe at all.”
    Cody’s hands start caressing my cheeks. “He was covering both of us.”
    What do I say to that? Damien’s act of selflessness makes me love him even more. I just hope Cody won’t think anything is happening between him and me.
    Brian pulls Cody to the side, as Tami pulls me toward her for a hug. I’m close enough to Brian and Cody to hear part of what Brian is saying. Upon hearing it, my heart starts beating a mile a minute, and my over active brain is running amok all on its own.
    “Man, tell her while you still can. What happened tonight was too close. You have to talk to LT, because this can’t go on much longer, Cody.”
    As I inch away from Tami, wanting to hear more of what Brian is saying, his eyes dart from my face to Cody’s, and he changes his tune.
    “Cody, come on; let’s get the girls inside. I’m sure, Gunny has something to tell us. Let’s go,” Brian says, while he only looks at Cody, and not at me.
    I know, he’s ignoring me, but I also know, he’s hiding something from me. Just then, LT walks in and stands next to me. My mind is still thinking about what Brian meant by what he said. I’ve always trusted my intuition…it has never steered me wrong. Right now, it’s telling me something isn’t adding up. That feeling alone wakes me from my stupor, and my mouth runs away with my nerves.
    “Is there something going on that I need to know, LT?” I ask, with a serious tone as I face him, while studying his facial expression.
    He stays stoic. There’s no sudden shift in his facial expression, either. Who am I kidding? He’s trained not to show his emotions. Shit! All of them are trained to be just that, but one thing you can’t train are the eyes . It’s the part of you that feels without touching…that tells without speaking. It’s the part of the human body that knows what the heart is feeling, because when the heart is hurting, they shed tears of pain. When the heart is happy, they cry tears of joy. So, I focus on the eyes…
    LT blows out a breath before answering. “Nothing’s going on, Rox. Bring it down a notch, yeah?”
    Then, I turn to Cody. He won’t lie to me after I just gave him my whole heart. He knows…He knows not to break my trust. This damn secret has got something to do with either Cody or LT. The fear confining my heart moves my mouth to speak. I say a silent prayer before asking God to spare me another heartache, for Cody not to break my heart.
    Looking at him with hope in my eyes, I ask one simple question. “Is there something you know that you’re not telling me?”
    There it is. Without answering, Cody gave me his answer…not a single word leaves his lips. The very lips I kiss are now the very lips that can’t move…can’t speak. It’s his silence that seals our fate, but it’s his sparkling blue eyes that stab my heart. They used to resonate love and truth…now…now they only show regret.
    He reaches for me, and I let him. “Love, don’t. Don’t judge me without hearing what I have to say.”
    I savor the warmth his hand gives, but when he moves to touch my face…I catch his hand and stop him from touching me. He lost that right the moment he lied to me…the moment he made the decision not to be forthcoming with me.
    Shaking my head I say, “You don’t have
