"I wasn't creeping," Leanne retorted, her tone defensive. "You..." She was about to ask what he was doing there when it suddenly hit her. They'd gone skiing today.
The ski resort was just a stone's throw away. They must have decided to stay nearby after hitting the slopes. So then... Did he bring Suzan here? Leanne's heart clenched tight, as if someone had yanked the oxygen from her lungs, leaving her gasping for air. Was Curtis really that desperate? Couldn't he at least wait until the divorce papers were signed? Was that too much to request? Descending the staircase, Curtis caught her eye, and Leanne noticed a suspicious red mark on his neck.

Behind her, the sound of rummaging followed, then Curtis' voice: "Where's the first-aid kit?" Leanne's voice was tight, strained, "Second drawer on your right." Curtis pulled open the drawer and retrieved the kit. Just as Leanne was about to step away, he asked, "Which one's for allergies?" Leanne didn't want to deal with him, "Look it up yourself." Curtis snorted, “Dr. Castillo, such an angel in white. Your cat givesallergies, and you shirk responsibility? Where are professional ethics you've got?"

"Apply once or twice daily. We're out of loratadine, so make sure you take swhen you get back," she instructed.
Curtis didn't take it, instead, he slumped onto the couch and yanked open his collar, "Help me." Leanne didn't move, "You can have the person upstairs help you." Curtis lifted a lazy eyelid, "Upstairs? Who? Is this place haunted or something?" Suzan wasn't here? Leanne watched him for a moment, searching his face for lies. When she found none, she reluctantly approached to apply the ointment.

She was thorough, but Curtis suddenly made a noise ofdiscomfort dodging his head to the side, "Doing that on purpose?" "Did I hurt you?" Leanne was unimpressed by his sensitivity, "I wasn't pressing hard." "I mean, stop breathing on my neck." Leanne was speechless, "Even a barnacle needs to breathe." Curtis' brown eyes fixed on her and he drawled, "You're makingerect."
