Sadie rolled her eyes, "Yeah, I think I will go. Because I thought I was coming here to someone who can listen. You can't even remember what I said two minutes ago. Making me explain myself over and over."
She scoffed, "And you're trying to make me the bad guy here? I may not be worth much, but I sure as hell worth more than a man who doesn't listen and guilt trips me."
She walked toward the door.
That got under his skin like a poison arrow. "Worth more?" he repeated, voice edged like a blade.
"You think you know what worth is?" He stood up, hands clenched at his sides as if it were the only way to keep himself from reaching for her. "You come here. You say it's a one night stand. And I'm the bad guy?"
Sadie turned to him, her haze furious, "Are you kidding me right now? You made it sound like its a one night stand. Thats why I stopped. Because I dont do one night stands. With anyone. Ever."
She rolled her eyes, "Just forget it. Im done defending myself to you. I'm done with this. Eagle may be an asshole, but he never put me through this."
