n nDominic was staring at me like he couldn't decide whether to chop me into pieces or pull my hair and French kiss me. n nDominicn nI got her fired. Okay, so I'd had a bad day and took it out on a bystander in a pizza shop. But there's nothing innocent about Ally Morales.

Maybe I like that she argues with me in front of the editorial staff.
